PIECES OF THE PUZZLE: Glimpses Behind The Mask Of Statism

Once again, there are stories in the news that serve to expose the true nature of those who seek to control us.  These stories provide us a peek behind the masks these people wear.  And what we see should bother those of us who know right from wrong.  Here are the stories:

Liberal Activist: Sometimes I Think ‘Abortion Should Be Mandatory’ to Reduce Earth’s Population

I have pointed out that, if Al Gore truly believed the global warming stories he tells, he would not be living the lifestyle he lives.  If Gore is correct, then his carbon foot print far exceeds anything a single person could morally justify.  For him to continue in the lifestyle he lives would be the moral equivalent of everything he accuses the “rich” of being due to their wealth.  Likewise, if the activist in this story truly believed what he is selling, he would have removed himself from the planet.  But notice: while these people are happy to control you and I, and to use the force of government to impose their ideas on us, they conveniently exempt themselves from the effect of their own agenda.  Obamacare would be another example: those who forced it on us exempted themselves and their political allies.

Hypocrisy: it is a good indication of deception, and deception is always on the wrong side of right.

Here is another story that indirectly speaks to the heart of those who support the Statist:

‘SHUT THE F*** UP’: You May Just Start Laughing at How Worked Up Some on the Left Are Over CMA Awards Mocking Obamacare

The people in this story are the same people who would jump on the “anti-bullying” campaigns our government funds.  They would be the first to tell you they are not bigots, racists or “haters.”  Instead, they would tell you they are open-minded and tolerant.  The problem here is that they have fooled themselves.  The problem is that they actually believe the stuff they say about themselves, which is why they can’t hear themselves.  Instead, all they hear is hatred and racism in what is – well, what was once considered good political parity. They have conveniently forgotten that they were saying the same and worse about George Bush just five years ago.  However, in this case, the CMA skit actually has firm basis in truth.  So, which side in this debate is calling the other hateful names, making personal attacks and calling for the opposition to be silenced?  That is the side where force resides, and where there is open use of force, there is tyranny.  Tyranny is always on the wrong side of right.

Then there is this story:

Obama Reportedly Told Staff He’s ‘Really Good at Killing People’

Let me ask you: what sort of person says something like “I am really good at killing people?”  Now, let me ask you another question: what sort of President says such a thing when American citizens and innocent people are among the people he has killed?  There is no way to give Obama the benefit of the doubt here.  By law and by definition, the President has been committing murder.  Even if they are guilty of treason against the United States, so long as they are not in an actual act of armed aggression, the Constitution commands the President to afford the accused due process.  But Obama is not executing his legal duty to insure due process and the rule of law are carried out.  He is assassinating people instead.  And this doesn’t even address the fact that Obama has committed treason.  This is not an opinion, it is by constitutional definition.  Obama has been arming people he knows to be fighting with and for Al Qaeda.  If we are at war with these people, arming them is Treason.  If we are not at war with them, then Obama has violated U.S. and International Law by assassinating people in the name of fighting terrorism.  Either way, Obama is on the wrong side of right.

But there is another story – a story you will not find in the press.  That is the story about the majority of Americans who are willing to sit back and allow all of this to be done in their name.  Now, I understand that one person cannot stop the forces that are working to enslave mankind – not by themselves.  But one person can stop small parts of those forces while – at the same time – providing the world with the encouragement it needs to find the courage to stand up to tyranny:

So, how will we react to tyranny?  Will we do our part?  Will we stand?  Will we make our voices heard and speak out?  And will we pay the cost to do what is right?  Or will we remain silent?

We have a choice.  Chose right over wrong and things will change.  Stay silent and they will still change – only for the worse.

  1. Part of any president’s job is to be good at killing people. Does it bother you that this one is admitting as much?

    1. msharmila,

      No, the President’s job is NOT to be “good at killing people.” So yes, it bothers me that this man seems to be proud of this. It also bothers me that you aren’t bothered by it. Frankly, yours is the thinking that helped put people on the trains. I want no part of any society where that mentality rules.

      1. Is not the primary function of any nation state to protect the population of that state from violence? Is not some violence best countered with violence (which inevitably results in death)?

        A president who cannot kill when required is both weak and ineffective in the most basic task of the state surely?

        1. msharmila,

          The role of a JUST government is to enforce the law — without partiality — and to defend the nation. In this case, Obama is violating the law when he kills people. Also, this nation has not declared war on anyone, so we cannot claim “self-defense.” On the contrary, the way we are conducting ourselves constitutes aggression on our part.

          As for killing: there is a difference between killing in self-defense and killing as a lawless aggressor. One is justified under Natural Law, the other is murder. Also, killing is not the President’s “job,” it is just a conditional duty. If the nation is not attacked, then how could it be his “job” to kill?

          I’m sorry that you do not understand why this is true, but — under both U.S. and International law — Obama is guilty of murder.

  2. What US law is being violated?

    And the drone strike thing is more of an in-between thing than either self defence or aggression. The US government believes that decapitation of terrorist groups (killing their leaders) will cause those groups to decline and no longer be able to plot against the USA which they certainly do. It is a tactic in a war, whether war was “formally” declared or not.

    1. msharlima,

      What law? The law against murder. The Constitution requires due process before the government can take a person’s life. Obama is not doing that. By definition, this is murder.

      As for the idea that the drones are “in between:” that may help people sleep at night, but it is not true. One either engages in a legitimate act of self-defense, or one does not. To be legitimate, you must declare war. This is International AND U.S. law. If you do not declare war, and are not acting with the U.N., then you are the outlaw — by definition. In that case, you are the one in the wrong. Incidentally, Obama has killed many totally innocent people with his drones, women and children included. This is not what America stood for when it was founded, but it is a central plank of tyranny. Tyranny cares not for the individual: only for the govt.

      Finally, if the govt. really wanted to defend the nation, they would seal the borders and start paying attention to domestic threats WITHOUT adding every American to that list.

      Like I said: keep posting. You are the perfect illustration of everything that is wrong with the thinking in this nation.

      1. “Due process” is mutable. There is a process for drone strikes, they’re not just random violence.

        As for declarations of war, reality is, countries don’t do that these days. Maybe the world is worse for that, but that’s just how modern warfare is, it’s not generally accompanied by formal declarations.

        All wars involve innocent casualties and this one is no different.

        As for sealing the borders etc, that’s a totally different issue.

        1. It would appear you have managed to renationalized bad for good and good for bad. So, you’ll excuse me, but I do not believe you when you sy you don’t believe in much of anything. Apparently, you believe in quite a bit.

          As I said: you are the perfect illustration of the type of thinking that is destroying the world. Please, keep posting, but don’t expect much of a discussion from me. Now that I realize you have embraced the post-modernist ideal, I understand that reason will not reach you.

  3. There is a World of Difference between a President saying “I’m good at killing People” versus ” I’m Good at Defending the Country”.

    The difference is in fact a Gap so wide that sanity, Morality and all rational bearing in this country has fallen into that Gap. I don’t think that “msDIS-harmony2013” missed the Tianemin Square event at all. It’s mearly that She recognizes and likes that the Red Chinese are good at Killing People Too.
