The Bookworm Beat 10/23/16 – the culture war edition and open thread – Bookworm Room

Please understand that what happened to Street Cakes wasn’t about lesbians getting their wedding cake. If those lesbians wanted a cake in Oregon, they could have enriched God-alone-knows how many different bakeries. Instead, this was about destroying Christians’ right to withdraw voluntarily from a competitive marketplace in order to protect their religious sensibilities.

Muslim Imam Refuses To Swear On Constitution, Judge Refuses Something Of His

When leftists defend Islam, they are defending wife beating, child marriage, slavery, and the execution of homosexuals, adulterers, blasphemers, and apostates — just like Allah commanded and the Islamic prophet Muhammad modeled. In essence, they are advocating for everything they claim to stand against.

This needs to be done in every country. Especially the USA.

You Owe Them Nothing – Not Respect, Not Loyalty, Not Obedience – Kurt Schlichter

Now it seems we actually have a new social contract – do what we say and don’t resist, and in return we’ll abuse you, lie about you, take your money, and look down upon you in contempt. What a bargain!It’s not a social contract anymore – American society today is a suicide pact we never agreed to and yet we’re expected to go first.I say “No.”We owe them nothing – not respect, not loyalty, not obedience. Nothing.

Sultan Knish: The Right to Happiness is the Antidote to Tyranny

Modern revolutions are solution-based. So are modern governments. Redistribute the wealth. Power to the workers. Put X in charge. Strengthen Laws Y through Z. Impose your will on everyone else. And there is the Declaration of Independence, old and worn, offering up an idea as fragile as a butterfly, that government does not exist to impose solutions, but to protect the individual’s pursuit of happiness.

Independence Day!

I’m a vet. Took the oath then. Took it again when hired in a government job. Taken the same oath twice. Never been relieved of said oath. To misquote Thomas Paine, my job is to protect my country from my government. That’s why the oath is to the Constitution, not the government.

‘No Fly, No Buy’ Means No Freedom – The Unz Review

If a government bureaucrat can put your name on a secret list on the bureaucrat’s own whim or even using secret standards and, as a result, you have lost a fundamental liberty, then the feds have transformed a natural right into a governmental gift. If the feds can create a no-fly list in secret and “no fly” comes to mean “no buy,” then we have no rights but what the government will permit us to do.

GOODSTUFFs CYBER WORLD: Atomic Hand Held Weapons are Scary

I go to the sporting goods section, a perfect gruesome area where implements of death and destruction are openly and brazenly sold. I notice a atomic hand held weapon just lying on a shelf. I reach for it as if it was a South African centipede, wondering if it will go off when I pull it off the shelf. That’s right, a shelf. Where anybody could get it.

Free Range International » Fourth Generation War Comes To America: What Are You Going To Do About It?

That the target was a gay night club is irrelevant. Homosexuality and Islam have a strange relationship due to the many peculiar customs routine among unmarried young adult males that in the west would consider homosexual. That’s old news. My speculation is that the nature of the target aided the Icehole shooter by de-humanizing his targets through the interpretation of the targeted group contained in the Koran. He could have targeted a stripper bar or any kind of bar for the same reason.
