When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.

The orbit of a high-order society is no doubt of a great expanse. But within its dimension, the sphere of each individual is so small as negligible. Tremendous people may contribute in forming such a society. But it would be very common for every man therein to feel lost and gone. Any man can wake up one day, and find himself socially alive but personally dead, for that society remembers its members in collection and folds, without showing any regard towards selfhood and uniqueness, as found in the basic characteristic of man, that each man is but a whole different specie, and to put him in likeness to a man standing next to him is but an insult to his self. A high-order society works miracles while it’s alive. But its span is very little, its prospects short-termed. For a man, when he loses his individuality, can’t certainly be at peace with his surroundings for so long. Soon it all gives way to chaos and ruckus, and the society collapses on her own, as all its people and all its men, lost and confused amongst themselves, turn wild and hostile.

Peace cannot exist in a world where diffrence prospers. As humans we search for faults in others its natural. Until we evolve into the same people with the same beliefs there can never be peace.Opposing Idea's are like magnets no matter how you try to force the same sides together it won't go. Protesting peace against war is the same thing it's still a differentiating opinion.

Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently, and for the same reason.

Welfare Poem


I cross ocean,
poor and broke,
Take bus,
see employment folk.

Nice man treat me
good in there,
Say I need to
see welfare.

Welfare say,
'You come no more,
We send cash
right to your door'

Welfare checks,
they make you wealthy,
Medicaid it keep
you healthy!

By and by,
I get plenty money,
Thanks to you,
American dummy.

Write to friends
in motherland,
Tell them 'come
fast as you can.'

They come in turbans
and Ford trucks,
I buy big house
with welfare bucks

They come here,
we live together,
More welfare checks,
it gets better!

Fourteen families,
they moving in,
But neighbor's patience
wearing thin.

Finally, white guy
moves away,
Now I buy his house,
and then I say,
'Find more aliens
for house to rent.'
And in the yard
I put a tent.

Send for family
they just trash,
But they, too,
draw the welfare cash!
Everything is
very good,
And soon we
own the neighborhood.

We have hobby
it's called breeding,
Welfare pay
for baby feeding.

Kid's need dentist?
Wife's need pills?
We get free!
We got no bills!

American's crazy!
He pay all year,
To keep welfare
running here.

We think America
darn good place!
Too darn good for
the white man race.
If they no like us, they can
scram, Got lots of room in Pakistan .


- Uncle Bob

If your down just remember it could be worse you could be living in the middle east in a constant war zone. If you leave in the middle east it could be worse you could be living in Africa in complete poverty with malaria and other diseases like hiv/aids. If you live in Africa and down remember it could always be worse you could live in America under barack obama as president

- Andy Cain...inspired by Kevin Rhodes
