The Conservative Bill of Rights

New Emerica
12-05-2005, 16:48
The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA.

"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt-ridden, delusional and other liberal bed-wetters.. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of No Rights."

ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be ... and like the rest of us you need to simply deal with it.

ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes.

ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public health care.

ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV, pool tables, weight rooms or a life of leisure
.
ARTICLE VIII: You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs, education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.

ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness --which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights,"

ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from. We welcome you here. English is our language and like the one you left behind, we also have a culture. Learn it or go back to the country and the living conditions you were fleeing.


Ah, I love the truth. The whole thing is just do damn true!!!

I KNOW that. But since there is nothing that suggest hatred or is considered offensive I can post it. It doesnt matter if its a copy and paste! It still starts a lively discussion, just like every other post on this page! YOU have NO RIGHT to tell me what I can and can not post. Thank you very much!

oh, btw...your probably a liberal arent you? Should have guessed. Only libs would have such a cow about something with conservative content. But if I were to post something praising the likes of abortion and the abolishment of religion that would be quite alright wouldnt it?

Firstly, this is not a free speech zone. The mods have the right to stop you posting whatever you want. In light of the recent problems with the jolt server, I suggest that you are selective in what you post.

Secondly, I didn't say that I disagreed with all of it.

Third, my objection is mainly to your laziness in just copying and pasting stuff rather than writing your own original thoughts, if you have any.

Praising abortion? Depends. Abolition of religion? I would consider that to be trolling. You would know all about that.

You threads don't start "stimulating discussion". All your threads are quite plainly designed to start Democrat vs. Republican flamefests.

But I'll pick through it for fun:

ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

I: I agree.

II: I agree. People do not have the right to never be offended. That includes liberals, blacks, and conservative Christians.

III: People have a right to be free from harm deliberately caused by others. People also have the right to harm themselves. Emerica, does this mean you support legalised drugs? :D

IV: People should not be "taken care of" by the government, but it is not acceptable to have citizens starving and homeless.

V: It is not acceptable to have large numbers of poor citizens ill and dying just because they can't afford the treatments that could easily prevent their deaths/illness.

VI: I agree, except for the electric chair part. People should be put in prison for life, but the death penalty is wrong.

VII: I agree.

VIII: I agree that people can't expect to be guaranteed a job. But if you are against welfare, how can you justify the statement "All of us will gladly help you along in hard times"?

IX: I agree.

X: I agree that people who immigrate to a country should learn the language, but it is worth pointing out that English is not the official language of the US.

Almost ALL posts about a particular view cause flamefests. Why do you single me out? There all over! And you even contradicted yourself! "Praising abortion? maybe" Gee....wouldnt that start a flamefest between pro-choicers and pro-lifers?

Do I agree with legalized drugs. Sort of. I think marijuana should be made legal. Tax it and sell it like cigarettes. It would create more jobs and help reduce if not eliminate our national debt. The pot heads would get what they want and our police forces wouldnt be caught up in taking down petty drug related crimes.

And show me the PROOF that English is not the official language of the United States! The MAJORITY speak it and we were founded by Europeans and explorers of....GREAT BRITAIN! What do they speak...let me think....oh yeah...ENGLISH!

There is a thread for the NS Communist Party or whatever. The point is I see all these offensive (usually left-wing themed) threads and dont see any complaints from the Mods. But as soon as I post something remotley to the right....and omg its a big deal! I had one of my nations deleted for posting against abortion! I "violated" some rule about linking to offensive images. When if fact I clearly threw in a warning stating the images were graphic!

Also, many people telegramed me about me deletion and they were just as confused as me! I see graphic images linked on here all the time! But I post ONE link to aborted babies and all of a sudden its a big deal? I guess the pics of guys heads being cut off wasnt graphic huh?

I didnt mean masturbation was totally left-wing. The point is you were calling my thread offensive when there are clearly more offensive threads on the page! But yet you and everyone else ignore them and attack any threads that promote anything from the right-wing!

Well no duh! Porn is one thing. But I have seen some pretty graphic links on this forum. Like the prisoners heads being cut off and such. hell, one was a link to a video of a beheading! But I link to a few pics of aborted babies AND post a warning that the material is graphic and I get deleted! Obviously the lot of you, especially the mods have it out for conservatives! And its being proved here by people attacking a non-offensive thread but yet a thread that openly talks about masturbation is allowed to go on without a single complaint!

Personally, I have no problem with the masturbation thread. But, many religious people would still consider it offensive. It should be labeld with a warning as well! But I dont see any action being taken or the topic started being deleted! Its is all to obvious there is an uncontrolable extreme left-wing bias here and it needs to be stopped! Its becoming like a left-wing dictatorship around here.

The problem is not that your viewpoint is conservative, but that it is actually designed to cause flaming. Same with a pro-abortion post saying "zOMG all 4 abortions - go kill those babies!" That would be trolling. Most of your threads pretty much come down to "liberals suck."

I agree on marajuana, but why not extend that freedom to other drugs.

Legally, English is not the official language of the US. It is the majority language, but legally, the USA has no official language.

Yes mastrubation offends some people, obviously we should cater to everyone's sensitivities and sexual hangups. I've never seen and beheading links so I can't comment on that, but what you don't seem to grasp is that a warning label doesn't mean anything. The fact that you gave warning just means its easier for the mods to spot and delete.

How is a VIDEO and PICs of peoples heads being cut off better then aborted fetuses? You obviously didnt read all of what I said. Its obvious that porn would not be tolerated. But the fact I got deleted for pics of aborted babies while the poster of Vid and Pic of beheadings is free to go? Is there any sense in that? I stand by my case.

My post is NOT spam. Spam would be posting something irrelevant or posting the same thing over and over again in a short time in order to "flood" the page. Seeing as this is the GENERAL forum I posted NOTHING irrelevant. Nor did I attempt to flood the page with non-sense! Again..I stand by my case.

No, abortion is not usually in the news. And it is possible to understand and talk about it without using graphic pictures.

No, I meant you. This thread doesn't anger or offend me. If you hate the bias in this place so much, why are you even here? And beyond that, why should we worry about offending these people at all, since if they don't like what they are seeing they should just leave.

And as far as those beheadings you're harping on? I don't know, I never saw them and I am not a moderator. Ask them, they are usually good with straightforward answers when you don't attack them for being some liberal cabal.

ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing for the rest of your life just because your parents are rich. Rich people are the greediest people to be found, and will gladly help themselves, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes. Abolish inheritance.

ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free markets that harm individuals and small businesses. That would be nice, but from the looks of large corporations abusing ‘Free Trade’, we're just not interested in getting screwed by Big Business.

ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you GET THE HELL OUT OF THE REST OF THE WORLD!

ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens by changing the laws or with the support of the military, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and become insurgents.

ARTICLE VIII: You have the right to a tolerable standard of living. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we don’t expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs, education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful, if you are a single mother, quadriplegic, or other disadvantaged person whose only fault is to be born poor.

ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness --which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an overabundance of poverty created by those of you who are predators.

ARTICLE X: Unfortunately, this is an English speaking country. Fortunately, we don't care where you are from. We welcome you here. English is one of many of our languages, and like the country you left behind, we also have a culture. If you learn English, we will be inspired to learn more about your culture.

The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA.

"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt-ridden, delusional and other liberal bed-wetters.. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of No Rights."
Yes, because it's all the whiny liberals' fault and conservatives have nothing to do with the state of America today :rolleyes:
ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.
Unless you're a politician, then you can legally accept bribes in the form of "campaing contributions"!
ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be ... and like the rest of us you need to simply deal with it.
Wait, I thought it was conservatives always screaming for censorship. You mean the liberals are respsonsible for the taboo against sex, the cries of being unpatriotic for not blindly supporting the government and making sure only Christian morals are followed?
ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.
What you get for basing a judicial system on money rather than justice.
ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes.
Then why not offer them a way to get food and housing rather than giving it to them for free?
ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public health care.
Yes, because the current costs of health care and health insurance is such the better way to go...
ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.
Wow, so liberals condone rape, murder and other nasty things now? But wait, considering all those things happen during war, and conservatives support war, that must mean they do too!
ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV, pool tables, weight rooms or a life of leisure.
Umm, actually, most prisons DO have all that kind of stuff and are pretty much a cake walk that many convicts couldn't care less about going back to...
ARTICLE VIII: You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs, education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.
Yes, because it'd be too much work to actually help everyone who wants a job find one...
ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness --which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights,"
And you're claiming "those of you" are all liberals?
ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from. We welcome you here. English is our language and like the one you left behind, we also have a culture. Learn it or go back to the country and the living conditions you were fleeing.
:rolleyes:
Ah, I love the truth. The whole thing is just do damn true!!!
You wouldn't know the truth if it ran you over and parked on top of you, all you know is the right wing bias, which is just as bad as all those people you despise who only know the left wing bias.
