Rube Preacher has hysterical practical joke over on the President and liberalism with Koran Burning for Victory Mosque Move Deal

The Florida preacher burned the Koran with out burning the Koran.   He had threatened to burn a bunch of Korans which looks looks like a coarse stunt.  Naturally the national media took the bait and ran with it thinking it had a vehicle to prove their preconceit that christians and conservatives by proxy are a bunch of bigots.  It is extremely delicious because even our illustrious community organizer in chief bit on the practical joke !   At the last moment the rube preacher  has come out claiming that he has made a deal with the mosque developer to move the mosque away from the 9-11 location.    With a stroke of genius he has inextricably linked the freedom of expression to build a mosque with the equally important freedom of expression to burn a Koran.   

Please note: It is a classic grifter technique to pretend to be less sophisticated than your mark.

Arizona CPS Child Protective Services provide a view of your State Run Medical Care Future

Please note:

  • The following story may have had some minor details altered to make the parties involved unidentifiable to state authorities.
  • The following is the best representation of the story I could put together without asking many questions.  The most important take away points about state health authorities and the extortion they perpetrated are clear and unequivocal.

I went to visit a couple that I met a few years ago.  I had not seen them in the past 6 years and they had 3 children now.  The first birth was a set of fraternal twins.   These twins were born premature at 25 weeks with their birth weight equal to 1.5 lbs.  As a consequence they were kept in the neonatal intensive care ward.  As this couple was on hard times due to the recession this all occurred in the county hospital that is state and / or federally funded.  Fast forward 1 year after their birth and the girl twin is having trouble breathing so they take her to the hospital. An X ray is done and the student doctor says "no problems" you can take her home.  Then as her breathing difficulties get worse they realize they must go back to the hospital.  This time when the attending witch doctor looks at the X ray they detect that one of the girl's rib has been broken and heeled.  The break was on her back towards the spine.  Many times this is associated with a baby that has been shaken.   Thus a report was filed by the hospital with CPS.

Video: The Spanish Civil War

This series of shows were recorded on or before 1983.  They include many interviews with survivors on both sides of the Spanish civil war.

This is a fascinating study in how humanity lurches forward, resists change, grasps on to desperate ideas and is willing to kill each other in the process.   Spain was has a functional monarchy until the early 1930's.  When it tried moving forward to a republican form of government it wobbled and failed after a span of about 5 years.   Many people were more comfortable with the old order while some wanted to try radically new ideas.  Some of those ideas were stupid like communism and eliminating money in favor of a revolutionary council handing out chits.   Those thinking crazy thoughts can somewhat be forgiven because the monarchy had held on so long that the change hit Spain like an earthquake that had built up stresses over centuries.  On the other hand they invited war by trying to change too much at one time.  That is bound to upset someone and one has to consider this because lives are held in the balance.  Unstable stupid people do unstable stupid things like kill 500 people at a go with just the word of one person.

 So what resulted?  The forty years of the Franco dictatorship.  Hardly the progress the so called progressives wanted to accomplish.  It is adequate proof to me that true revolutions happen peacefully through people changing themselves and others.  That unfortunately that things change slowly.   And for libertarians like me I see the poor anarchists reject joining government only to learn the lesson that game theory teaches so clearly.  It only pays to be cooperative when your counter party is cooperative.  Otherwise it pays to be uncooperative.  The communists entered the government and solicited help from Soviet Russia.  They ended up pushing out the anarchists.  Quite an object lesson is what is to be overcome to institute true freedom with libertarian ideals.  This history may have bearing on the future for the next step forward in government is its near total elimination.  There will be resistance to this and I expect there will be some wars too.   People, including the peasants, are resistant to change even if it is for the good.
