GOV'T EXPANSION

Post by Nobunaga »

... Alright, let's get to it.

... Last night I attended my first racist rally. I was really looking forward to it, ready to yell and to scream, to shout out my absolute horror at seeing a black man(!!) in the white house. Much to my surprise, this point was never brought up. And could you believe some black people had the audacity to attend the rally?! Shocking stuff, really. I was floored.

... Anyway, this thread is for all of you right-wing radical racist nazi potential terrorists, like myself, to decry the unconstitutional expansion of government in our lives and the loss of liberty we are facing with it. I don't wish to start a new health care thread, so let's post to the previous hundred or so of those already started if we wish to discuss that issue.

... National, state or local, it's all fair game.

... I shall begin with a local story from Michigan. The state of Michigan tells mothers they are breaking laws by babysitting.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090930/ap_ ... klash_mich

... Now I'll end with a quote from one of the most right wing radical sh*ts who ever lived.

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. - Thomas Jefferson.

... Now, summon the usual suspects.

Looks like red tape to me.
Everyone involved agrees this is silly. Including the agancy involved.

... LA residents to be forced to gravitti-proof their homes.

All new buildings in Los Angeles -- including homes -- must have anti-graffiti coating under an ordinance approved unanimously by the City Council on Tuesday. Homes in the tagThere is an exception if the owners promise to remove any graffiti on their property soon after it appears.

Anti-gravity was a much more enjoyable thought than the reality of the article...

Some roads are too dangerous for bicycles. I don't know if this one is.
Incidentally, I was instrumental in starting up a "walking bus" back in the UK, though most parents still insisted on clogging up the roads by driving their kids to school.
I would not let my kids cycle to school there at least not on the main roads, they were too busy.

Um, while, as a Brit, I find a legal drinking age as high as 21 a bit odd, I fail to see the relevance of these articles which are over 20 years old.

Problem is, is that there are still a lot of pissed off people about it in all age groups. And it really has not curbed teenage drinking one bit, if anything, it has only increased.

Honestly, I can't understand about 30 percent of what Frank says because of his lisp and the fact he gets so upset during discussions. Somewhere there's a clip of him nitpicking a procedural rule that he interpreted how he wished in order to stifle a debate on the floor of the House. "THE GENTLEMAN WILL SUSPEND!!!!!!!!!"
