Quotes

“You know how to solve political correctness? Don’t do it.”~Brad Stine

"Only half the patients who go into an abortion clinic come out alive."~Author Unknown

"The fundamental human right, the presupposition of every other right, is the right to life itself. This is true of life from the moment of conception until its natural end. Abortion, consequently, cannot be a human right -- it is the very opposite. It is a deep wound in society."~ Pope Benedict XVI

"I have a right to nothing which another has a right to take away."~Thomas Jefferson

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote."~Benjamin Franklin

"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."~Thomas Jefferson, quoting Cesare Beccaria

"If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents - the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else's. But if their thoughts - i.e., of Materialism and Astronomy - are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It's like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk-jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset."~C.S. Lewis

You say, "No more death penalty!" I say,"'More death penalty!"

For those who don't know it yet, you'll be getting my opinion on punishment in this country. Many people say that we should try to make criminals nicer, to reform them and reintroduce them to society; guess what, we already do that with all the criminals that can be reformed (and, unfortunately, with most that obviously can't). Most can be reformed (after punishment, that is), but many can't be. But sometimes, reform isn't even something we should try. Can you honestly tell me that you could look a girl who was raped in the eye and say that you think her assailant should be released in ten years, to probably end up committing the same crime again? If you can do that, kill yourself. That was not a joke of any kind. If you can honestly justify the kind of evil that would be in a person if they could ever rape a girl, you don't deserve the right to Life that God Almighty gave you; a gift is given, and it can be taken away. In the Bible, practices like Rape, Sadism, and Murder were punishable by death, and I think maybe we should respect the wisdom that the Almighty Creator of the Universe gave us. I've grown tired of the predominance of society's 'understanding'; at the end of the day, you comitted the crime, the why doesn't really mean anything.

Remember 9-11

I will never forget the 3,000 innocent deaths. Will you forget them? I will never forget the men who have sacrificed themselves to protect my freedom, my rights, and my life; they paid with their lives. Will you forget them? I will never forget the people slaughtered brutally by a genocidal dictator. Will you forget them? The world will forget many things, but this I pray, that the people who died on the 11th of September and the soldiers who died afterwards will always be remembered, for as long as the Red, White, and Blue flies proud and strong. Osama, we're coming for you!
