No president would declare martial law if he valued his position. However, I do agree on the education thing. Textbooks claiming Clinton was the most recent President are tiring.

No... just no. Even though I dislike a lot of Obama's policies, there still isn't enough reason for revolution.

I agree, the Soviet Union epitomized capitalism.

I mean, USSR? What's more capitalist than that? Four capitals, all in a row!

On the contrary, in the four years that he has been in office he has increased gun rights. He has signed bills allowing concealed carry into national parks and AmTrak trains.

People need to look at what he has ACTUALLY done instead of relying on the partisan rhetoric.

That's hardly something that can be put down against the President. Schoolbooks are bought at the state or local level and they're expensive. A rise in taxes might help, but the right has convinced people that they can have a great education system without actually paying for it.

This is so far from the truth it's hilarious. This is like the other day when one of my closest friends and his mom tried to argue to me that Obama is a marxist hell bent on eliminating private enterprise and installing a leninist type government. They stated that Obamacare and welfare attract people to 'suck on the governments teet", and that this is but just the beginning of his struggle to gain tyrannical rule. Now these two people are like family to me but they are absolute dumbasses. Then another one of my friends now is arguing that Sheriff Arpaio (the bigoted Arizona sheriff who proposed that law to racially profile "illegal" latino's based on their looks) has solid evidence that Obama wasn't born in the US. These people are just so outrageous, Obama may not be a perfect president by any means, but he isn't a Muslim marxist who was simultaneously born in Kenya and Indonesia who is also the anti-christ...I mean when Bush was president, sure a lot of people made fun of his bafoonery, but hardly anybody was constructing such bullshit theories about him. Case in point, revolution would be highly unpopular, and you would pretty much be the only one waving your flag of dixie high and mighty running through the streets crying for revolution...so goodluck with that brah.

Does that SOUND AMERICAN!?

Say Obama, then,say OSAMA! Similar?

And you guys think he is GOOD?!!!! He just lowered the taxes to distract you! Plus, the Local Government forced my kids to go to another shcool since it was just built. The Mayor just said it needed funding.WE DONT EVEN NEED IT! YOU CANNOT FORCE US!! If You built it, you pay for it! >:(

We dont need public aid,we cant even buy homes! For God sakes we have no friken JOBS!HE is a liar, and a COMMY!
Okay,Im calm now. But now, I just wanna know why abortion is legal,and murder is ILLEGAL?
That ESPECIALLY doesnt make since because he says he is a Christain! Embryos are people,they the DNA right?Well if he is a Christain,how come he SUPPORTS ABORTION!

He just puts his wife in commercials for preenting obesity. Except he forcefully gets rid of snack machines at schools and offices,which is socialist. But when she does commercials, shes trying to hipnotise you, by saying we need to do something,but forcefully. So you think its alright.

You do realize that education is a local/state issue, right? And that is because of your neocons, who think that ebil Big Goverbent is going to brainwash the children. Something, apparently, the parents want to do instead. /what could be a longer rant

Besides the fact that statement loses any legitimacy you have at a claim, allow me to refute your other statements.

Owning a gun is not a constitutional right. Read the amendment, and read the Supreme Court precedent. You do not get to decide what the 2nd means and what it does not, SCOTUS does.

The President cannot and will not declare martial law. He easily one of the smartest 1,000 Americans and knows that martial law is pointless. Your statement also disproves itself because, obviously, martial law is unenforceable.

This all sounds quite black helicopter-ish to me. Don't think so.
•Criticism of sentimental love, marriage, sex, religion, and rituals.
•Valuing reason over emotion and imagination
•Ironic, indirect, and impersonal (objective) representation of ideas.
•Uncompromising criticism of romantic illusions.
•Advocacy of pragmatism and disapproval of idealism and ideology.
•Especially vehement opposition to neo-liberalism, social democracy, communism, libertarianism and feminism.
•Satirisation of irrational and whimsical attitudes of the so-called creative class.
•Criticism of social, political, cultural, and moral customs and manners of the contemporary society.

You've posted the answer to your own question when you discuss the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Most Americans just do not have the stomach for war, let alone one within the United States. I do not support Obama or his policies but a revolution against him is just a silly thought.

What's your State and your local school district doing with their tax receipts, if they're not buying books?


I know mine's buying flatscreen tvs and putting down a new turf football field. Only the absolute necessities.

Well, they're also tearing down the old buildings in the school and putting up new ones, but this time without asbestos. That one's probably actually necessary.

And you guys think he is GOOD?!!!! He just lowered the taxes to distract you! Plus, the Local Government forced my kids to go to another shcool since it was just built. The Mayor just said it needed funding.WE DONT EVEN NEED IT! YOU CANNOT FORCE US!! If You built it, you pay for it! >:(

We dont need public aid,we cant even buy homes! For God sakes we have no friken JOBS!HE is a liar, and a COMMY!
Okay,Im calm now. But now, I just wanna know why abortion is legal,and murder is ILLEGAL?
That ESPECIALLY doesnt make since because he says he is a Christain! Embryos are people,they the DNA right?Well if he is a Christain,how come he SUPPORTS ABORTION!

He just puts his wife in commercials for preenting obesity. Except he forcefully gets rid of snack machines at schools and offices,which is socialist. But when she does commercials, shes trying to hipnotise you, by saying we need to do something,but forcefully. So you think its alright.


Whoops, there we go. Something even more insane.
This was formerly a signature. One day, it may return to its splendid past. In the meantime, enjoy some pictures of my cats.

Before we can even think about another US revolution, we must exhaust the first 2 boxes .

1. The soap box.

2. The ballot box.

3. The ammo box.

Before we can even call for a revolt, we must make sure that all legal venues are exhausted first. It is the only way that I would personally back and support a revolt, after all legal ways are done and the government decides that they will no longer accept the will of the electorate.
It's not the voices inside my head that bother me so much as the voices I hear inside of your head.

Gentlemen. You can't fight in here. This is the War Room!!!
