ENDLESS WARS ON DOMESTIC ENEMIES

The domestic enemies of the Neo-Fascist Conservatives have always included the disenfranchised, the dispossessed, the poverty stricken, women, labor, immigrants, blacks, Latinos, homosexuals, the elderly, and the Liberals that have sought to help them. With the triumph of the NFC Corporate Greed Society, a growing segment of the American middle class is being driven into the ranks of the lower classes, and America is again becoming a two-class nightmare nation of the super-rich and everyone else.

These are some of the domestic wars fought against these enemies of the Neo-Fascist-Conservatives:

The NFC Holy War on Women

With the words of the Hebrew Bible, restated in all subsequent rewrites of the Latin Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, and English Protestant bibles, women became the eternal temptress of man, and subject to his rule.

Adam said: “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” The Lord God said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain you shall bring forth children; Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”
The King James Bible, Genesis 3: 12-16

The struggle for Freedom and Liberty for women, since the beginning of the recorded history of male dominated Monotheistic religions, has purposely relegated one half of all humanity to second class status. In the last “civilized” millennia, the Christian Bible, the Jewish Torah, and the Islamic Qu’ran, in particular, have been used to discriminate against women; by perpetuating superstitious belief in women’s basic evil nature, which leads to the Madonna worship versus Whore of Babylon dichotomy. Forced Clitoral Circumcision and Honor killings of women are still a routine practice in many Muslim nations.

This has not always been the case. In fact, many of the pagan religions revered women as Goddesses, recognizing their reproductive role in the continuation of the human species. After Constantine, when the Christian religion became the official religion of the Roman Empire, all of the Pagan religions, which frequently worshipped female gods, such as the Egyptian Goddess Isis, and sexual freedom, became as illegal as Christianity had been. Pagan temples were destroyed, and the followers of these religions were persecuted and killed, as aggressively as the Christians had been a few centuries before.

Following the Judeo tradition, the early founders of the Latin and Greek Orthodox Christian Churches considered association with women to be unclean and an occasion for sin, especially when they were menstruating. Many early Christian clerics became reclusive hermits, and shunned all contact with women. Shunning women, they also shunned all healthy human contact and love, which is personified in women.

“Unlike Winston, she had grasped the inner meaning of the Party’s Sexual Puritanism. It was not merely that the sex instinct created a world of its own which was outside the Party’s control, and which therefore had to be destroyed if possible. What was more important was that sexual privation induced hysteria, which was desirable; because it could be transformed into war fever and Leader worship…there was a direct, intimate connection between chastity and Political Orthodoxy. For how could the fear, the hatred, and the lunatic credulity, which the Party needed in its members be kept at the right pitch, except by bottling down some powerful instinct and using it as a driving force.”
“1984,” by George Orwell, 1949

These Monotheistic churches eventually all became exclusive male dominated institutions, with a high incidence of sexual perversion, which then used their Holy Scripture to degrade and discriminate against women, even while claiming to elevate them.

As late as the 17th Century, this prejudicial attitude toward women resulted in widespread heresy and witch trials and burnings in Europe, and later in the English Colonies, as well as the Spanish New World.

“Adam, freely taste, and fear of death deliver to the winds’ so saying she embraced him…from the bough she gave him of that fair enticing fruit with liberal hand…against his better knowledge, not deceived, but fondly overcome with female charm.”
John Milton, “Paradise Lost,” Book IX, 1667

The inferior position of women is still the rule within the Catholic Church, the Islamic Faith, the Orthodox Jewish, and the CNF sects. These male dominated religions stress that women must obey their man who, like Christ, is the head of his household. It permeates all of their philosophy, and is at the heart of the controversy over the appointing of women ministers or priests in some denominations.

The Burning Bush:

“It has been told by the prophets in the land that there is a President coming out of Texas, a Burning Bush. He will deal with abortion in the land.”
Rev. James Nesbit

The most controversial issue by far, is the right of women to control their own bodies in matters of; sex, marriage, pregnancy, and birth of children. Here in the land of the free, women have had to struggle to secure all of the rights that the Constitution automatically gave to every white male American. The NFC Republicans and CNF Christians fought them every step of the way, and stand in their way to this day. Whether it was for the right to vote, equal pay for equal work, the right to hold political office, or to have control over their bodies and the reproductive process, women are still struggling for Liberty and equality in the world’s male dominated societies.

“Women in the workforce have become so prevalent that a man’s role has been reduced to a sperm donor.”
John Ashcroft, Fanatical CNF Crusader, Bush's First Attorney General

The problem of abortion, which the CNF Crusaders are so concerned about, would go away, if young women in the U.S. were given timely sex education and access to prophylactics. The New York Times recently cited statistics which showed that European young people are about equally active sexually, but, deprived of sex education, American girls are five times as likely to have a baby as French girls, seven times as likely to have an abortion, and seventy times as likely to have Gonorrhea, as girls in the Netherlands. The incidence of HIV/AIDS among American teenagers is five times that of the same age group in Germany.

In 1918, Senator James Vardaman, Democrat from Mississippi, opposed the Nineteenth Amendment (granting the women the right to vote) and called for the;

“…repeal of the Fifteenth, the modification of the Fourteenth… making this a government by white men, of white men, for all men.”

Senator William Borah, a Conservative Republican, from Idaho, also opposed suffrage, on racial grounds, saying;

“…there are 100,000 Japanese and Chinese women in the Pacific states, and I have no particular desire to bestow suffrage upon them.”

The Nineteenth Amendment was finally ratified in 1918.
Government By the People, Burns, Peltason, Cronin, Magleby, 1993

In 2003, an investigation at the Air Force Academy found sexual assault “a part of life” for female cadets. The investigation arose after almost 150 women came forward to say that they had been assaulted by fellow cadets between 1993 and 2003. Congress then ordered an investigation of the Army and Naval Academies. The investigation was conducted by a panel of 12 Military Officers and civilian experts. The Report issued on August 25, 2005, cited 2004 Pentagon data showing 50% of women at all three Academies were harassed, mostly verbally; but dozens suffered physical abuse. The report concluded:

“A culture that devalues the role of women in uniform makes it easier for rape and sexual harassment to occur. When women are devalued, the likelihood of harassing and abusive behavior increases.”

The report naturally failed to mention the fundamental devaluation of women which is instilled in the people, by the religious dogma of the world’s major religions.

Emergency Contraception Pill Denied to Women

In September 2005, the Associated Press reported that the highly regarded women's health chief at the Food and Drug Administration resigned in September 2005, in protest of her agency's refusal to allow over-the-counter sales of emergency contraception.

Asst. Commissioner Susan Wood charged that FDA's leader overruled his own scientists' determination that the morning-after pill could safely be sold without a prescription, and stunned his employees last week by instead postponing indefinitely a decision on whether to let that happen. "There's fairly widespread concern about FDA's credibility" among agency veterans as a result, Wood told The Associated Press hours after submitting her resignation.

“I have spent the last 15 years working to ensure that science informs good health-policy decisions,” Wood, director of FDA's Office of Women's Health, wrote in an e-mail about her departure to agency colleagues. “I can no longer serve as staff when scientific and clinical evidence, fully evaluated and recommended by the professional staff here, has been overruled.”

It was an unprecedented public show of discord for the FDA, and prompted lawmakers to call for congressional hearings into whether the nation's leading public health agency allowed religion and politics to trump science in determining the fate of the morning-after pill called Plan B.

“It is time for the FDA to stop playing games with the health and well-being of millions of American women,” said Sens. Patty Murray, D-WA, and Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-NY. “Day by day, the public's confidence in the FDA's ability to make decisions based on scientific evidence of safety and efficacy is eroding.”

The Democratic Party Leadership deserves credit for leading the fight for Women’s Rights The NFC Republicans and their Christian-Nationalist fanatics treat women as commodities and are the eternal enemies of Women’s Rights.

Any woman that votes for the NFC Republicans is voting against her own welfare, health and civil rights.

The NFC War on Black-Americans

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness”
The Declaration of Independence

The opening of the war on black Americans dates to 1638, when English merchants began the slave trade with the American colonies. It continues to this day.

“…in all times some must be rich, some poore, some highe and eminent in power and dignite; others meane and in subjection.”
John Winthrop, Governor, Massachusetts Bay Colony

The English dominated the slave trade with more than a hundred ships dedicated to carrying slaves, but American investors also entered the trade. In 1780, over 142 years later, Pennsylvania became the first to pass a law abolishing slavery, but by 1790, 500,000 slaves were recorded in the U.S. It has been estimated by research of shipping records, that by 1800, 10 to 15 million blacks had been forcibly transported from Africa to the Americas as slaves.

“Before I’d be a slave, I’d be buried in my grave, and go home to my Lord and be saved.”
Old Negro Civil War Era Spiritual

The employment of slaves became an integral part of the agricultural economic system in most of the colonies; but was greatly expanded in the Southern states which established large cotton and rice plantations. It was not until 1808, that the U.S. ended the slave trade, by constitutional mandate, but from the beginning the law went unenforced. It has been estimated that 250,000 additional slaves were imported illegally. At the start of the civil war 4 million of them were to be found in the U.S.

The plantation system of the agricultural economy needed land and labor. Land was seized from the Native American tribes, and the cheap labor was supplied by the slave traders. The lush farmlands of states like Virginia, North Carolina, and Kentucky, which produced tobacco; and the states of the deep south, like Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Louisiana, which produced cotton and rice, needed ever more slaves to expand and increase profits for the Aristocratic landholders.

“There was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other; for no man should take me alive.”
Harriet Tubman (Tubman a Former slave, was a famous conductor on the Underground Railroad, who escorted more than 300 slaves to freedom, making nineteen dangerous trips into the South.)

“I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had as I now think vainly flattered myself that without very much bloodshed, it might be done.”
John Brown, Note intended to be read after his Execution

In 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the 16th President. Unwilling to recognize Lincoln as President, eleven Southern states seceded from the Union, and formed the Confederate States of America. When Fort Sumner was seized by the rebels, the Civil War began. It raged from 1861 to 1865. In 1865, Lincoln issued the famous Emancipation Proclamation, which freed the slaves in the states that were still fighting against the union. It was a military move which gave the Southern states four months to stop rebelling, or their slaves would be freed. It was a welcome sign to the blacks and the white abolitionists.

“That on the first day of January, AD 1863, all persons held as slaves within any state or designated part of a state the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States shall be then, thenceforward and forever free.…”
Abraham Lincoln

With more than 600,000 Americans killed, the Civil War was the bloodiest in human history up to that time, and it left an indelible stain of hatred for black people in the Confederate South. In 1865, the 13th Amendment, abolishing slavery, was passed, Lincoln was assassinated by a conservative Southern sympathizer, and Vice-President Johnson was sworn in as President. He immediately announced a moderate Southern Restoration Plan, and issued pardons to most confederates.

“The world has never had a good definition of the word Liberty, and the American people just now, are in want of one. We all declare for liberty, but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word Liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men.”
President Abraham Lincoln

Shortly afterward, Mississippi issued its “Black Codes”, limiting the rights of freed blacks. Black codes then spread throughout the south.

In 1866, the “Civil rights Act of 1866” granted citizenship to all people born in the U.S. and permitted former slaves to own property, file lawsuits, and serve as witnesses in courts. In the same year, Congress passed the Fourteenth Amendment, to enforce the Constitutionality of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, (which the Southern States rejected) and The Ku-Klux-Klan white supremacy group was founded in Tennessee. By 1868 KKK groups, such as the Kentucky Night Riders, had spread throughout the south, and then to many northern states. The “Civil rights Act of 1875” enacted penalties for racial discrimination on public transit, and in other public places. It also prevented discrimination in employment, and established the rights of African-Americans to serve on juries. In the same year Reconstruction was officially ended in the South, and U.S. troops were removed. Before the Reconstruction Program had enough time to change the culture of the South, political power was returned to the White male dominated society, and the northern political leaders abandoned the black population to the control of their prior slave masters. Economic, political, and physical slavery quickly returned to the old South. Black people began a “Black Exodus” from the South to the northern states, to escape Paleo-conservative White Democratic Party rule.

The long hard struggle from Slavery to Liberty was just beginning:

In 1882, a Paleo-Fascist Conservative Supreme Court ruled that the Civil Rights Act of 1875 was unconstitutional!

In 1890, Missouri passed a Poll Tax law, which disenfranchised poor black voters. The Poll Tax spread all across the South.

In 1896, the Paleo-Fascist Conservative Supreme Court handed down its infamous decision in the Plessy v. Ferguson case, which effectively repealed the Civil rights Act of 1875, upholding Separate but Equal facilities and services for blacks.

In 1898, Louisiana established literacy voting standards and property requirements for blacks, while excusing white voters.

In 1900, a law to criminalize lynching was proposed in Congress, but failed in committee. Few whites raised a voice in protest!

By 1900, White Supremacy was again an unchallenged reality in the South, where the largest proportion of Blacks lived. Blacks were kept from voting and, forced to accept menial or heavy farm labor jobs, and were denied all educational opportunities. In 1896, the U.S. Supreme Court, had given Constitutional sanction to government imposed racial segregation, and in that year, blacks were being lynched an average of one every four days.

The Mind of the South:

“Proud, brave, honorable by its lights, courteous, personally generous, loyal, swift to act, often too swift, but signally effective, sometimes terrible, in its action---such was the South at its best. And, such at its best, it remains today, despite the great falling away in some of its virtues. Violence, intolerance, aversion and suspicion toward new ideas, an incapacity for analysis, an inclination to act from feeling rather than from thought, an exaggerated individualism and a too narrow concept of social responsibility, attachment to fictitious and false values, above all too great attachment to racial values and a tendency to justify cruelty and injustice in the name of those values, sentimentality and a lack of realism---these have been its characteristic vices in the past. And, despite changes for the better, they remain its characteristic vices today.”
W.J. Cash, “The Mind Of The South” (an ideological and social history of the South from Colonial times until the beginning of WWII)

In 1915, D.W. Griffith released the KKK sympathy film called “The Birth of a Nation” and massive Ku-Klux-Klan rallies and marches were held all around the country. By the 1930s KKK membership numbered in the millions!

In the 1930s Blacks began to resort to the courts, to challenge the doctrine of segregation and to secure their civil rights, without much success.

In 1936, the Black American sprinter, Jesse Owens, won four Track and Field Gold Medals at the Summer Olympics in Berlin, hosted by the Fascist leader of the Master Race, Adolf Hitler.

“No more than nature desires the mating of weaker with stronger individuals, even less does she desire the blending of a higher with a lower race.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

Blacks fought to free foreign populations in WWI and WWII, but it made little difference in their treatment, when they returned home.

After WWII, civil rights litigation began to have an impact, and the Liberal Democratic Supreme Court, appointed largely by President Roosevelt, began to reverse earlier decisions made by Paleo-Conservative Justices, appointed by Conservative Presidents of both parties, since the civil war.

In 1947, a Presidential Commission called for an end to segregation, and Democratic President Truman endorsed the report.

In 1954, the Supreme Court, largely consisting of Liberal Democratic appointees; ruled in Brown v. Education, that “the Separate but Equal doctrine was inherently unconstitutional” overturning Plessy v, Ferguson.

The NFC Republicans have since, understandably become the critics and enemies of the Supreme Court Activist Judges, the Public School system, and the Teachers unions.

Public Schools-Servant of Democracy:

“One of the great ideals of the founders of the American Republic was their belief in a system of Universal Free Public Education—a concept most fervently voiced by Thomas Jefferson and his followers. Jefferson was firmly convinced that no people could be Free and Ignorant at the same time; hence, the school is the indispensable servant of Democracy.”
Horace Mann

In 1955, the same Supreme Court ordered the states to desegregate all schools With all deliberate Speed.

In 1955, Emmett Till, a black teenager was brutally murdered in Mississippi by several white supremacists; but an all white jury found them not guilty, prompting a national outrage.

In 1955, seamstress Rosa Parks was removed from a bus, in Montgomery, Alabama after she had refused to give up her seat in the front of the bus.

This act of civil disobedience, by a respectable black woman led to the now famous bus boycott by black riders, who were the principal users of the city’s buses. Her lone protest became the first of many confrontations of a massive social, political, economic, and legal movement for equality. In 1957, the Democratic controlled Congress overrode a Southern filibuster in the Senate, and enacted the first civil rights laws since Reconstruction.

In another demonstration of the greatest generation, the traditional-conservative Ladies of Montgomery’s Maxwell AFB Officers Wives Club, normally only interested in golf, bridge games, and sherry parties; demonstrated their true nobility, when they defied the city government, and served as a free taxi service for the city’s black maids.

In 1957, 25,000 Blacks joined Rev. Martin Luther King in a prayer pilgrimage to the Lincoln Memorial.

In 1957, the Civil Rights Act of 1957 to protect Black Suffrage was signed by the moderate traditional-conservative President Eisenhower. This was the first Civil rights legislation since 1875.

In 1957, Eisenhower sent Federal troops to Little Rock High School, in Arkansas, to enforce school integration.

In 1958, Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus evaded federal integration orders by closing all little Rock Public Schools, and reopening them as private, segregated schools.

This is the genesis of the war on Public Schools by the NFC Republicans, and the shift to Private Religious schools all over the South.

By the end of the 1950s, there was a national consensus everywhere, except in the Southern states; favoring government action to protect civil rights for Blacks, including the right to vote. However, a decade after the Supreme Court declared Public School segregation unconstitutional, most Black children were still attending segregated schools.

In 1960, the Civil Rights Act of 1960 strengthened existing Civil rights legislation.

In 1961, violence followed a series of Freedom Rides on public buses in Alabama, to test if the states were complying with integration laws. U.S. Marshals intervened.

In 1962, James Meredith was enrolled at the University of Mississippi, with the aid of Federal Marshals, a major riot ensued and Federal troops had to be called in.

In 1963, Martin Luther King began a desegregation crusade in Birmingham, Alabama, and Federal Marshals integrated the University of Alabama by force, despite threatened physical interference by Segregationist Governor George Wallace.

In 1963, Martin Luther King and more than 200,000 people joined a Civil Rights march called the March on Washington, at which King gave his famous “I have a dream” speech.

In 1963, NAACP leader, Medgar Evers was assassinated in Jackson, Mississippi. The perpetrator was found not guilty.

In the summer of 1963, a series of violent confrontations began all over the South. The American people were witnesses to televised riots where fire hoses, police dogs and brutal excessive force was used against the peaceful black marchers. These were followed by the police attacks on the peaceful march from Selma, Alabama to Montgomery. It ended in a march in Washington, DC, where 250,000 people heard Dr. Martin Luther King, and other civil rights leaders speak eloquently on the principles of Non-Violence, Liberty, Freedom, and the Human rights of all Americans. Millions of Americans watched on television, and were ashamed.

By the end of the summer there was virtually no city of any size, North or South that had not experienced demonstrations, marches, protests, and sit-ins, some of which became violent.

President John F. Kennedy urged Congress to enact a comprehensive Civil Rights bill, but he was killed before he could see its passage. Democratic President Lyndon Johnson, a Nationalist-Liberal Southern Democrat, took up the challenge and gave Civil Rights legislation his highest priority. On July 2, 1964, he signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law.

In 1968, a Presidential Advisory committee issued its report on the causes of civil disorder;

“Our nation is moving toward two societies, one black, one white, separate and unequal.”
Otto Kerner, Presidential Advisory Committee on Civil Disorders, 1968

The highly regarded Mr. Kerner would have to have been living on the moon, not to have known that such a division of society had been in existence for over two centuries.

In 1964, President Johnson announced the Great Society, the War on Poverty, an the Civil rights Act of 1964; which banned discrimination in Education, Employment, and public accommodations, and the 24th Amendment outlawed Poll Taxes.

“From time to time… a negro has for the first time become a lawyer, teacher, or even a pastor,…a heroic tenor, or something of the sort…a new proof of the soundness of the…theory about equality of man…it is criminal lunacy to keep on drilling a born half-ape, until people think they have made a lawyer out of him…that is a sin against the will of the Eternal Creator.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

In 1964, the Reverend Dr.King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

By the middle of the 1960s there was a persistent effort for the abolition of all color barriers, but by 1962 only 5% of Blacks in Mississippi had registered to vote. The barriers to voting were many and ingenious; including poll taxes and unfair tests that black people could not pass.

In 1965, The Voting rights Act of 1965 outlawed literacy tests for voting. In the same year, the Watts riots left 34 dead, after the beating of a black motorist by police.

In 1967, called the Long Hot Summer, race riots broke out all over the U.S.

In 1967, Thurgood Marshall, former NAACP lawyer for Brown v. Board of Education, became the 1st black Justice on the Supreme Court.

In 1967, The Supreme Court ruled, in Loving v. Virginia, that laws prohibiting interracial marriage were unconstitutional.

In 1968, James Earl Ray assassinated Martin Luther King, in Memphis, Tennessee.

In 1969, J. Edgar Hoover declared the Black Panther Party; Public Enemy # 1, but said nothing about the KKK organization and its violence and murder of black people for a century.

In 1970, the Governors of Florida, Georgia, and Louisiana vowed to fight school integration, and the FBI did nothing.

In 1971, The Criminal-conservative President Nixon devised the Southern Strategy, which feeds on the fear, hate, and prejudice of many Southern Whites. Hundreds of white conservative Democratic Party politicians switched to the Republican Party. Within thirty years the South had became a solid Republican stronghold.

In 1978, The U.S. Supreme Court ruled, in Bakker v. University of California, that Affirmative Action to achieve equality; was constitutional.

In 1990, Nelson Mandela was freed in South Africa; after worldwide protests and boycotts of South African goods. This marked the end of the South African version of Segregation, called Apartheid. The American bigoted Arch-Conservative Republicans had supported Apartheid, and the racist South African government.

In 1992, The Los Angeles Police that beat Rodney King, were found not guilty; this led to riots in Los Angeles.

In 1992, President Clinton sent troops to Haiti to restore order and restore democratically elected President Aristide to power.

In 2000, President G.W. Bush was elected and a process began to turn back all Social Progress Programs and Civil and Human Rights gains of the past 75 years. The NFC Republicans accuse moderate Justices of being so-called Activists, and efforts are made to pack the court with NFC/CNF Republican Judges.

In 2005, Un-compassionate-conservative President Bush demonstrated lack of competence and compassion, and complete contempt for Black Americans, when he failed to act in a timely manner to help the Hurricane Katrina victims. Many died unnecessarily.

In an NFC Republican future, Blacks and other minorities face regression on many fronts in their long struggle for Liberty.

Lynching of Blacks is Still Not Illegal in the USA!!

In June 2005, Reuters News reported that the U.S. Senate had formally apologized for having rejected decades of pleas to make lynching a federal crime, as scores of victims' descendants watched from the chamber's gallery. On a voice vote and without opposition, the Senate passed a resolution expressing its regrets to the relatives as well as to the nearly 5,000 Americans, mostly black males, who were documented as having been lynched from 1880 to 1960.

These deaths occurred without trials, mostly in the South, often with the knowledge of local officials who allowed mob lynchings to become picture-taking, public spectacles. During this period, nearly 200 anti-lynching bills were introduced in Congress, three of which passed the House of Representatives. But despite the support of the legislation by seven U.S. presidents, the measures died in the Senate, with much of the opposition coming from Southern lawmakers who raised procedural roadblocks, and argued for States Rights in such cases.

Such legislation would have made lynching a federal crime and allowed the U.S. government to prosecute those responsible, including, if necessary, local law enforcement officers.

The resolution expresses apologies not only to the victims of lynchings, but also to their descendants, nearly 200 of whom came to the Capitol to witness passage of the measure.

No lawmaker opposed the measure, but 20 of the 100 senators had not signed a statement of support for it shortly before a vote was taken on a nearly empty Senate floor. Incredibly, 17 U.S. Senators failed to sign the apology, mostly from the South, including both CNF Republican Senators from Bush’s home state, Kay Bailey Hutchison and John Cornyn of Texas, who both claimed to have been too busy to act as co-sponsors!

The Death Penalty—Legalized Lynching

There is roughly an equal number of black and white murder victims in the United States each year. Yet, “80 per cent of the more than 840 people put to death in the USA since 1976 were convicted of crimes involving white victims, compared to the 13 per cent who were convicted of killing blacks.” A U.S. Justice Department study found prosecutors “were almost twice as likely to seek the death penalty for black defendants accused of killing non-black victims than for black defendants accused of killing black victims.” Once a capital case is underway, prosecutors “give more white defendants than black defendants the chance to avoid a death sentence,” by entering into plea bargain agreements and white defendant were “almost twice as likely as black defendants to enter into such plea agreements.”

During a death penalty trial “prosecutors regularly exclude black potential jurors from service.” A 2003 study of jury selection in Philadelphia, Pa. capital cases “revealed that prosecutors used peremptory challenges; the power to exclude potential jurors for any reason aside from race or gender, to remove 51 percent of black potential jurors while excluding only 26 percent of non-black potential jurors.” Since 1977, “at least one in five of the African Americans executed...had been convicted by all-white juries.”

The NFC Republican Hate Party

The American South had for many decades of the 20th Century, had a strong KKK presence, with 30-50 incidents of hate crimes per year, including lynchings. By 2005, cross burnings, not seen in a generation, began again, first in North Carolina, where the state reported 37 active Hate groups in operation.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has for decades, been tracking more than 700 such right wing Hate groups in the U.S. (P.676) The Law Center has been at the forefront of battling these Hate groups in court, including; “The White Aryan Resistance” (WAR), “The Church of the Creator” of North Carolina, “The United Klans of America” of Alabama, “The Christian Knights of the KKK” of South Carolina, “The Invisible Empire of the KKK”, “The White Party Militia” (Paramilitary, 1,000 strong), “The Aryan Nations” led by the infamous Richard Butler of Idaho, and “The National Alliance”( led by it’s Neo-Nazi founder, William Pearce, author of the “Turner Diaries”, the Bible for American Neo-Fascists and Neo-Nazis)

It is not accidental that many of these groups emphasize their Southern, Christian and White Racial identities. They are acting out the vile propaganda spewed by the NFC Republicans and the CNF Crusaders.

In 1967, federal charges were filed against 18 Klansmen. Several were convicted, but none served more than six years in prison a new wave of black church burnings began again in Tennessee in 2005, after 80 year old Klan member, Edgar Ray ‘Preacher’ Killen, who had been indicted for organizing the 1964 slayings of 3 civil rights workers, was put on trial in Philadelphia, Mississippi, and convicted. Killen was found guilty of manslaughter.

In July 2005, the AP reported that Sparta, Tennessee, had suffered seven fires, and the destruction of two black Churches, in a black neighborhood, categorized as Arson, and called racially motivated by the residents.

Blacks, homosexuals, immigrants and their liberal defenders were bracing for a new reign of terror.

The NFC Republican Brownshirts

The hate-filled rhetoric of the NFC Republican propagandists has inspired hundreds of hate groups to act out their racist, Anti-Semitic, Homophobic, and Xenophobic prejudices.

Racial Hygiene-Euthanasia Prelude to Genocide:

“It is understandable that the so-called negative measures of racial hygiene, namely ones to eradicate defective elements have always been at the centre of public interest. Apart from the question of mental deficiency, the problem which still remains unresolved in the sphere of eradicatory racial hygiene is that of the so-called anti-social elements or social misfits, those with hereditary diseases, unemployed, professional vagabonds, petty thieves,…the problem posed by Jewry…There is the deepest imaginable gulf in outlook on life dividing us from the mentality which accorded every living creature the right to procreation.…”
Walter Gross, Director, Nazi Office for Racial Policy, August 1941, Racial policies led in 1939 to “Euthanasia Action” which resulted in well over 100,000 Ethnic Germans being murdered

In mid-December 2005, Dr. Heinrich Gross, a prominent Neurologist in Austria, died peacefully in Vienna at age 90. Gross was a leading doctor in Vienna’s infamous Am Spiegelgrund Clinic, and one of the last living Nazi doctors who worked at Nazi Racial Hygiene clinics to eliminate “worthless lives.” Gross had escaped trial for his role in the cruel experiments and murder of thousands of children. Over 5,000 children were killed for real or imagined mental, physical, or social disabilities.

In July 2005, a new White People’s Party sprang up in Las Vegas, when its chairman Michael O’Sullivan, a Las Vegas real estate broker, filed with the state. The Party caters to the white Race and all of its policies will be decided on whether they are good for non-Jewish people of wholly European descent. O’Sullivan is also the state leader for the Neo-Nazi hate group called National Vanguard.

NFC Republican candidate Doug Hanks gave up his race for the Charlotte City Council on August 4, 2005, after The Rhinoceros Times, a local publication, discovered approximately 4,000 postings Hanks had put on the Neo-Nazi hate site: “Stormfront.org” In his postings, Hanks had compared Blacks to Rabid Beasts.

Klansman Daniel Schertz, a former member of the White Knights of the KKK, was arrested in May 2005, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, for selling five pipe bombs to an informant and an undercover ATF agent. Schertz hoped the men would use the bombs to “take care of” a group of Hispanic immigrants.

On August 29, 2005 a Federal Judge sentenced Sean Gillespie to 39 years for firebombing a Jewish Temple in Oklahoma. Gillespie, who once belonged to the White Supremacist group The Aryan Nations, raised his hand in a stiff-armed Nazi salute as the Judge turned her back and left the court.

The FBI, guided by its history of bigotry, inherited from its founder; J. Edgar Hoover, has for decades disproportionately targeted Black politicians for undercover sting operations. One of these operations actually bore the racially prejudiced and insulting name of the “Frumenschen” (Primitive Man) Sting.

On August 4, 2005, Allan Lengen of the Washington Post reported another story of the NFC dominated FBI, targeting Black politicians:

“FBI agents raided the Washington and New Orleans homes of Rep. William J. Jefferson (D-La.) yesterday as part of an ongoing public corruption probe,” law enforcement authorities said.

Agents conducted early-morning raids at Jefferson's homes in the 1300 block of F Street in Northeast Washington and in the 1900 block of Marengo Street in New Orleans, authorities said. His car on Capitol Hill was also searched.

“There were search warrants executed today in connection with an ongoing criminal investigation,” said Bryan Sierra, a Justice Department spokesman. “Since the investigation is ongoing, we would not be in a position to comment any further.”

Sources familiar with the probe, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case, said investigators were looking to see whether Jefferson used his congressional influence in business dealings.

In 1990, Jefferson, 58, became the first African American to be elected to Congress from Louisiana since Reconstruction. The eight-term congressman is a senior member of the Ways and Means Committee and its trade subcommittee.

The FBI and their NFC Republican protectors have been the constant adversaries of all Black people

Since the beginning of the Conservative Revolution, a handful of Black traitors to their own people, such as: Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, and Condaleeza Rice, have gone over to the NFC Republican camp, for the customary twelve pieces of silver and the illusion of acceptance in the Aristocratic ranks of their arch enemies. Colin Powell; who was once considered a viable Presidential candidate to be the first Black President, was shamefully used by the NFC Leaders, and lost his once sterling reputation by falsely misleading the UN and the U.S. population on the phony evidence of WMD in Iraq.

The Democratic Party Leadership has not done enough to correct the inequities faced by Black people in the criminal justice system, or to stop the aggressive targeting of Black and other minority politicians by the NFC FBI.

Any Black American that works for or votes for the NFC Republicans is voting against his people’s interests, and his own welfare.

The NFC War on Latino-Americans

The Declaration of Independence does not talk about the equality of White, Christian, or Anglo-Saxon men, but all men (or mankind). Thus far we have established most of its lofty sentiments have not applied to Women, Native Americans, and Black slaves, who enjoyed neither Liberty nor equality for most of our history.

The struggle for Civil and Human Rights, promised by our Constitution, has not been limited to Native Americans, Women, and Black people. Each new wave of immigrants, especially those who were of darker skin, from southern regions in Europe, and from Central and South America, have been discriminated against, by those who had arrived earlier; especially the White Anglo-Saxon Protestants (WASPs), who claimed heritage from the original English colonies.

The Spanish and Portuguese colonial rulers of Central and South America, and their descendents, left a legacy of exploited, impoverished, uneducated, and extremely poor populations throughout the region. This was followed in the 19th and 20th centuries, by Yankee Imperialism, which perpetuated the ruling classes in power, further reducing the people to quasi-slave status. The ruling class of wealthy landowners controlled the economy and the politics, in an American version of Feudalism, keeping the common Latino in a state of degradation and ignorance. The result was continuous and bloody uprisings, revolutions, and civil wars, in what became known as the Banana Republics. These conditions contributed to the further decline of Latino society into an extreme two-class system of extremely poor Campesinos, and a small very wealthy and powerful Patron ruling class. Over the past hundred years, those who could, escaped this grinding poverty and oppression, by voting with their feet. These Americans came to the U.S.A.

In the Southwest U.S. the Anglo settlers had worked in collusion with the government to foment a revolution and strip Mexico of half of its territory. Later, lies and aggression were used to seize much of Spain’s possessions. The Mexican settlers in Texas and California cooperated with the Anglos and joined with them in the revolt against Mexico. This was quickly forgotten after the Mexican War, and Mexican-Americans began to experience discrimination and outright hatred all across the Southwest U.S.

Until recent decades no provision was made for the education of Mexican-American children in the Southwest. When they were eventually admitted into the schools, they were segregated from Anglo children, theoretically because of their language handicap. They were actually punished for speaking Spanish and were considered to be an inferior race.

It has been estimated that there are 30 million Latinos residing the U.S. About half of these are from Mexico, 2-3 million are from Puerto Rico, and over 1 million Cuban refugees claim to have escaped the oppression of the Castro regime, but in fact, they came for the same economic reasons that all Latinos come to the U.S. Latino-Americans have served Honorably in the U.S. Armed Forces in all U.S. foreign wars, as the U.S. military has frequently been the only route of advancement. In fact, there is evidence that Latinos have been exploited by the U.S military. On Tuesday, July 5, 2005, an Austin-American Statesman story included a story by Jorge Mariscal, of the University of California. Mariscal wrote;

“Does America only need Latinos during wartime?“

The Times… quotes a senior Army officer as saying, ‘General Sanchez, as a role model, is extremely important. The Army sells growth, opportunity and development. We cannot ignore what our population makeup is.” The “population” in this instance is the rapidly growing number of Latinos of military age trapped in inferior public schools, with high drop-out rates and minimal access to higher education. They are the long-term target of the Pentagon's multi-billion dollar military recruiting campaign.

History teaches us that the war record of Mexican Americans is distinguished and beyond reproach. The invasion and occupation of Iraq will extend that record into the future. But the dark side of this community's wartime experience illuminates the contradictions at the heart of U.S. Society's treatment of its own citizens of Mexican descent.

Early in the summer of 1943, with thousands of Mexican Americans fighting and dying in Europe and the Pacific, sailors attacked Mexican American youths in the streets of Los Angeles and other Southern California cities. While police stood by and conservative newspapers fed the anti-Mexican hysteria, servicemen assaulted young men and women, ostensibly for wearing zoot suits, and then widened their attack to the general population.

In East Los Angeles, one young Mexican American wrote: ‘This is supposed to be a free country. We don't go around beating up people just because we don't like the clothes they wear. Whose side is the Navy on anyway?’<

In the summer of 1970, with thousands of Mexican Americans fighting and dying in Southeast Asia, Chicano antiwar protestors gathered in East Los Angeles to denounce the war's impact on local communities. The 25,000 men, women, and children had just arrived in Laguna Park when L.A. County sheriffs and police tear-gassed and attacked the crowd, clubbing men and women to the ground and eventually killing three.

Writing to a local newspaper, one G.I. in Vietnam said: ‘We, the Chicano soldiers, have something to say to our brothers in East Los Angeles. We were proud when we heard of the East Los Angeles demonstrations. But why did you stop there? We sit here impatiently waiting to get home.”

In the summer of 2005, with thousands of Mexican-Americans (as well as thousands of non-U.S. citizen Mexican nationals) fighting in Iraq, the so-called Minutemen hunt Mexican workers along the border and harass them in locations as diverse as Southern California and eastern Tennessee. Hiding behind the issue of illegal immigration, and tacitly supported by politicians such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Minutemen join the long line of racist bullies who pockmark U.S. history.

As Chicano Vietnam vet Charley Trujillo puts it:

“They call us Americans when they need us for a war. The rest of the time we're just dirty Mexicans.”

As history repeats itself yet again, young and old alike will ask themselves whether those “…who enlist to serve the agenda of the Bush administration do so por patriota, o por pendejo - because they are patriots, or fools.”

Mariscal served with the U.S. Army in Vietnam in 1969. He now teaches at the University of California, San Diego.

Latinos are a talented race of people that have excelled in all industries and professions, including; sports, entertainment, music, education, military, medicine, and a host of other fields. They have proven, that given an opportunity they will make a positive contribution to any endeavor; benefiting the commonwealth of our nation.

Every year hundreds of thousands of Latinos from Mexico and Central America cross the 2,000 mile border known as the land bridge to jobs and opportunity, and enter the U.S. without formal permission, in a desperate effort to find a better life or work to support their families. Latinos have strong work ethics, strong religious beliefs, and strong families. They typically take hard laboring jobs that most Anglo workers will not even consider. The U.S. building and agricultural industries have benefited from this source of cheap labor; but in many cases, these illegal workers are exploited and paid below the already inadequate minimum wage.

The NFC Republicans constantly emphasize only their illegal immigrant status and the involvement in street crime of a small percentage of their people. Crime statistics prove that, like Black Americans, Latinos suffer disproportionately from police harassment, racial targeting, false arrest, excessive force, conviction, and imprisonment.

White Anglo-Saxon Protestant Nationalist-Conservative Republicans have traditionally been opposed to immigrants from all parts of the world that are populated by the dark skinned races, and especially from countries that are Roman Catholic. They fear that the Latinos, who are predominately poor and Catholic, will vote for Liberal Democrats.

The NFC Republicans are schizophrenic about the problem of Latino illegals. Those of their supporters, who wish to exploit the cheap labor, favor Work Permits, which do not lead to citizenship; and those who are totally Xenophobic, want them rounded up and deported, fearing that these dark skinned poor people will degrade the country and dilute their voting strength. These are the people that constantly demand that English be mandated as the Official language of the U.S. or who become involved in vigilante groups like the Minutemen.

The NFC Republicans are the eternal enemies of Latinos and they must never support them, even if the candidate is a moderate. However, Latinos are their own worst enemies, they do not acquire Citizenship for an average of 18 years after entry, and then they fail to vote in sufficient numbers, to insure that programs beneficial to their people are passed.

Latino-Americans that vote for NFC Republicans are voting against their own interests.

The NFC Criminal War on Crime

“No, No said the queen. Sentence first—Verdict afterwards. He’s in prison now, being punished: and the trial doesn’t begin until next Wednesday: and of course the crime comes last of all. Suppose he never commits the crime? Said Alice. That would be all the better, wouldn’t it? The Queen said.”
Lewis Carroll, “Through The Looking Glass”

During the 1960s thru the present time, the NFC Republicans have used phony statistics, the entertainment media, and deliberate propaganda, to convince the American people that the rate of crime, especially in the inner cities, was exploding out of control. The Democrats have been accused of being soft on crime, and in knee jerk reaction, the Democratic Party leaders agreed to the passage of many draconian laws, and appropriated billions to fight crime, that eventually transformed the USA into the biggest jailor nation on the planet, and included the USA in a circle of the most repressive regimes in history in terms of the sheer number of crimes that were encoded in its laws, and the brutality of its prisons.

An Earlier Law and Order Man:

“State Authority must provide for Peace and Order, and Peace and Order in turn must conversely make possible the existence of State Authority”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

Federal Undercover Entrapment Operations Rampant

Prior to 1973, it was not constitutionally permissible for a police agent to engage in the Entrapment of a person in the United States. In numerous court cases, beginning in 1894, the Supreme Court had ruled that Entrapment was not a legitimate police method of getting convictions.

“Congress could not have intended that its statutes were to be enforced by tempting innocent people into violations.”
Sherman v. United States, 1958

This all changed in 1973, when the NFC dominated Supreme Court gutted most Entrapment defenses. Nixon NFC Republican ideologue, William Rehnquist wrote the majority opinion which focused solely on the subjective predisposition of the entrapped person. If prosecutors could find any inkling of a defendant’s disposition to the crime, then the person would be guilty, no matter how outrageous or manipulative the government agent’s behavior. This one decision; coupled with undercover operations which involve wire-tapping and recordings of conversations, has resulted in the corruption of the FBI and other law enforcement at all levels, who, instead of investigating actual criminal activities, now routinely resort to manufacturing crime in order to prosecute it.

“The defendants’ objections to the evidence obtained by wire-tapping must, in my opinion be sustained. Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect Liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficent.”
Justice Louis D. Brandeis, dissenting, Olmstead v. United States

It is widely reported that all of the child porn offers on the Web are actually law enforcement at all levels of government attempting to tempt people into downloading their sick offers, which then automatically becomes a sex crime.

In May 2005, Law and Order fanatic NFC Republican James Sensenbrenner, pushed thru a new bill (H.R. 1528) that imposes minimum mandatory jail sentences for a wide new range of offenses, including a bizarre provision which provides a mandatory jail sentence of three years, for any parent that is “aware” of drug-trafficking activities near their children, but fails to report the alleged activity to police within 24 hours!

The measure also includes $250 million for federal law enforcement and $100 million for local law enforcement to fight teenage youth gangs. With a wise program of cost sharing with the states and corporate sponsors, that would have been enough money to give virtually every unemployed youth in the country a decent job! Bob Herbert of the New York Times has pointed out that among teenagers the unemployment rate is 63.7% - the highest ever recorded. The unemployment rate among those 20 - 24 is 27.8%, a 7% increase since 2000.

Describing the NFC Gulag:

“The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.”
Fydor Dostoevsky

By 2005, the U.S. prison population stood at 2.1+ Million people, having doubled in the past ten years. One in every 75 Americans is in jail. With 5% of the world’s population, the U.S. has 25% of the world’s prisoners, making it the leading jailor in the world! We are #1 with 715 per 100,000 incarcerated, and Russia is next with 584 per 100,000

At this rate by 2050, approximately 65 million Americans will be incarcerated, or over 10% of the entire population, and the nation will consist of over 200 Million Americans that will have spent some time in jail!

“Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.”
“Judge not, and you shall not judged.”
“Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned.”
“Forgive, and you will be forgiven.”
Jesus Christ, The King James Bible, Luke, 7: 36-37

Prisons are the New American Growth Industry!

The U.S. is the world’s leading jailer, imprisoning around 25 percent of the world’s prison population in spite of representing only around 5 percent of the entire world’s population. Of black men in their 20s and 30s, one in eight is imprisoned in the U.S., compared to only one in 63 white men. Yet Justice Department statistics show that from 1994 to 2003, violent crime fell by over 33 percent and property crimes by 23 percent!!

Justice or Injustice:

“That Justice is often extremely unjust is more than a present-day observation, Summum jus, summa injuria, is one of the most ancient of proverbs…Such injustice is meted out by tyrants, and particularly by fanatics, who always become tyrants, when they are given power to do mischief”
François Voltaire

A Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) has grown to massive proportions as a result of the NFC Republicans and their Democratic Party allies; and their ever-expanding web of financial relationships with institutions, individuals, and corporations that benefit from continued reliance on mass imprisonment.

“On a day in late October, suddenly striking in every city and village and black-hill hide-out, the Corpos ended all crime in America forever…Seventy thousand selected Minute Men, working in combination with town and state police officers, arrested every known or faintly suspected criminal in the country. They were tried under court-martial procedure; one in ten was shot immediately, four in ten were given prison sentences” “
It Can’t Happen Here,” by Sinclair Lewis, 1935

According to the Veterans for Common Sense, the number of federal inmates in private facilities prisons and halfway houses has increased since 2000, by two-thirds, to more than 24,000. Thousands more detainees not convicted of crimes are confined in for-profit facilities, which now hold roughly 14 percent of all federal prisoners, compared to less than 6 percent of state inmates.

Business is certain to grow. Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman Traci Billingsley said the number of federal inmates is expected to rise from 185,000 to 226,000 by 2010, with private companies likely to be relied on for housing non-citizen immigrants convicted of federal crimes.

The number of people detained by U.S. immigration officials also is increasing rapidly, up three-fold in the past 10 years to more than 21,000 at a given time. In December, Congress passed a terrorism prevention bill calling for 40,000 additional beds by 2010 for aliens awaiting deportation.

About 30 states use private prisons, notably in the South and West. Texas has the most inmates in private facilities, more than 16,000; New Mexico has the highest portion of inmates in private prisons at 43 percent.

“The drug war has been the main cause of profits for private prisons,” said University of North Florida criminologist Michael Hallett. “We've gotten so extreme in overusing incarceration that we have for-profit industries with an interest in high crime rates.”

In terms of excessive punishment and general treatment of lawbreakers in U.S. society, the U.S. NFC instigated Criminal Justice system, ranks among the most savage in the world; but every year, the NFC big punishers demand ever more Law and Order, at whatever it costs the American society, in lives destroyed, and resources wasted.

“Prevention of crime is of greater importance than its punishment”
Marchese Cesare B. Beccaria, Criminologist and Economist, Milan, Italy (1783-1794)

Beccaria was a product of the Enlightenment, and the first modern writer to subject the death penalty to fundamental criticism. He wrote the most influential book ever written on the reform of the criminal justice system. In a systematic fashion he attacked the savage methods of Law and Order of his day. He denounced the use of torture and secret interrogations in the judicial process, argued for proportionality of penalties to offenses, and the importance of removing the social causes of crime among the lower classes, for practical and economic reasons.

The NFC Lust for the Death Penalty:

“The Law is not about forgiveness, it is oftentimes about vengeance, oftentimes about revenge.”
John Ashcroft, Fanatical CNF Crusader, Bush Attorney General

The U.S. has a dark history of using the most hideous methods of execution, including hanging, the gas chamber, and the medieval torture of the electric chair. Now the theoretically humane lethal injection, similar to that given to stray dogs, has given cover to these horror rituals, which demonstrate the absolute power to destroy life, that the government claims to demand on our behalf.

In 2004, the moderate Republican Governor Ryan of Illinois shocked the Law and Order fanatics, when he cleared out the state’s death row, after declaring the state’s death penalty system to be unconstitutionally executing innocent persons. DNA evidence had proven that innocent people had in fact been wrongfully convicted and executed in Illinois. In fact, hundreds of DNA case appeals were proving that all across the U.S.; the greatest horror in the field of Justice was occurring with regularity.

“Lay then the axe to the root, and teach governments humanity. It is their sanguinary punishments which corrupt mankind. In England the punishment in certain cases is by hanging, drawing and quartering; the heart of the sufferer is cut out and held up to the view of the populace. In France, under the former government, the punishments were not less barbarous. The effect of those cruel spectacles exhibited to the populace is to destroy tenderness or excite revenge; and by the base and false idea of governing men by terror, instead of reason, they become precedents.”
“The Rights Of Man”, by Thomas Paine

Within a few years the system enforcers had their revenge. The NFC FBI targetted Governor Ryan in an undercover sting operation called Operation Safe Road. As a result of this sting, 73 people were convicted for offenses involving corruption in the issuance of driver’s licenses. It was a real stretch, but using typical FBI coercion and threats, and offers of leniency they were able to work their way up the food chain to Governor Ryan, who was their real target. As a result of coerced testimony; Ryan has been charged with racketeering, conspiracy, mail fraud, lying to the FBI, and tax fraud!

The scandal has destroyed the popular Governor’s reputation and career. Although he has denied all wrongdoing, he did not seek re-election.

The message is don’t mess with the Law and Order Enforcers!

The expanded use of the Death penalty, the way it falls most heavily on the poor and the minority population; and the mounting evidence that the U.S. Criminal Justice System is corrupt, reflects the brutality and lack of Christian principles of the NFC politicians, and puts the United States in a small circle of Police State regimes.

“That it is better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should suffer, is a maxim that has been long and generally approved.”
Benjamin Franklin, March 14, 1785

In August 2005, the Washington Post reported on a speech by Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, in which he issued an unusually stinging criticism of American capital punishment, telling the American Bar Association that he is disturbed by “serious flaws.” Stevens said DNA evidence has shown;

“…that a substantial number of death sentences have been imposed erroneously. It indicates that there must be serious flaws in our administration of criminal justice,…”

Other moderate Supreme Court justices have also spoken out about concerns that defendants in murder cases are not adequately represented. But Stevens made a much harsher condemnation. He said Supreme Court cases have revealed that “…a significant number of defendants in capital cases have not been provided with fully competent legal representation at trial.” In addition, Stevens said he had reviewed records that showed “special risks of unfairness” in capital punishment.

“Juries might not be balanced because people who have qualms about capital punishment can be excluded by prosecutors,” he said. He questioned whether potential jurors are distracted by extensive questions about their death penalty views. A statement from a victim's family, Stevens said, sometimes “serves no purpose other than to encourage jurors to decide in favor of death rather than life on the basis of their emotions rather than their reason.”

Unfortunately, Stevens will be in the minority, once the Bush NFC nominees join Neo-Fascist Justices Scalia, and Thomas.

The NFC Republicans have led the U.S. into an unenviable position in the world. Urged on by the NFC Death penalty advocates; Capital punishment returned in 1977. By December 2005, there were only 12 states that did not have the death penalty; and the states had executed their 1,000th convict, 830 by lethal injection. The makeup included 11 women and 22 prisoners that were juveniles at the time of their crime, and 34 who had evidence of mental retardation. Bush’s Compassionate-Conservative Texas led the nation, with 355 people executed. By November 2005, There were approximately 3,400 inmates, including 118 foreign nationals awaiting execution.

Since 1972, after a five-year voluntary capital punishment moratorium, 122 prisoners in 25 states have been freed from death row, the majority due to DNA evidence and the efforts of the Innocence Project, a New York based legal clinic that seeks to exonerate inmates through DNA testing.

The support for Capital punishment has slipped from 80% in 1994 to 64% in October 2004, but the NFC Republicans in Congress have been pushing legislation that will significantly speed up the trying and executing of prisoners, and make it even harder to appeal convictions to the Federal courts.

The Right To Bear Murder Weapons

There might not be so many murders in the U.S. if handguns were not so prevalent in our society.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, American children are sixteen times more likely than children in other industrialized nations to be murdered with a gun, eleven times more likely to commit suicide with a gun, and nine times more likely to die from firearms accidents.

The Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research reports that the rate of firearm homicide in the United States is nineteen times higher than that of 35 other high-income countries combined! In the most recent year for which was available, handguns killed 334 people in Australia, 197 in Great Britain, 183 in Sweden, 83 in Japan, 54 in Ireland, 1034 in Canada, and 30,419 in the United States!

Although four out of five Americans prefer modest restraints on firearms, the NFC Republicans and the Gun Manufacturers’ Lobby, called the National Rifle Association (NRA), has so demagogued the issue, that legislation controlling purchase of Semi-Automatic weapons that had previously passed with the support of Presidents Reagan, Bush Sr., and Clinton, was allowed to expire in 2004. A new bill was also passed that protects all gun manufacturers from liability if a buyer uses an assault weapon in a terrorist attack. Now that’s real Patriotism!

The “Law and Order” NFC Republicans can rest easy now that manufacturers and importers of semi-automatic assault weapons (AK-47s, AR-15s, UZIs etc.), designed only for killing other humans, are now available to every gun nut and criminal in America, insuring a supply of Death penalties out into the foreseeable future.

Last year Amnesty International reported that 97% of all executions had been carried out in four countries: China, Iran, Vietnam, and the United States. Not the best company for the nation that once called itself the world’s leading Democracy and the leader of the Free World.

Criminal Justice Rappers

“Prosecutors have become the new rappers; Do the Crime-Do the Time, Three Strikes and Your Out, and worst of all; Adult Time for Adult Crime. Courts in the U.S. have been prosecuting children as adults, who are too young to vote, get married or drink alcohol legally, and meting out punishments of life without parole.”

“The law ought to impose no other penalties but such as are absolutely and evidently necessary; no one ought to be punished, but in virtue of a law promulgated before the offense, and legally applied.”
Declaration of the Rights of Man and of citizens by the National Assembly of France, quoted in his book of the same name, “Rights of Man”, by Thomas Paine

In the first national analysis of life without parole sentences for children, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch discovered that there are presently 2,225 people in the U.S. sentenced to life in prison without parole, for crimes they committed as children. Contrary to popular belief, most of these children do not have long rap sheets of vicious crimes; and an estimated 59 % received the sentence for their first-ever conviction. There are also marked racial disparities. Black youth are 10 times more likely to receive life without parole sentences than white youth.

The NFC government of the U.S. stands alone along with Somalia, as the only countries that have not ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which explicitly prohibits life imprisonment without the possibility of release for children under 18. At least 132 countries forbid life without parole for juvenile offenders by domestic law or practice. Only four countries have juvenile offenders serving life without parole, with only a dozen cases outside the United States.

NFC Biblical Rappers-An Eye for an Eye

This often misquoted biblical passage is one mantra of the Law-Order- Punishment-Conservatives that have so radically Stalinized the American Criminal Justice system. Most Americans would agree that anyone committing a violent crime, such as armed robbery, rape, and assault, should be incarcerated. The problem is that a large percentage of the people convicted of financial and victimless drug crimes, are serving long sentences that serve no purpose other than to prove that politicians are tough on crime. First time offenders, especially those who were innocent and those where the punishment far exceeds the legitimate needs of society, receive a criminal post-graduate degree in these Devils Island Crime Universities.

Unless they received a life sentence, most of these offenders will be back living amongst us again. They have been brutalized by society; and are now called; Convicts, Jailbirds, and Felons. They have no prospects for anything other than menial employment, and constant targeting and harassment by police. It should not be surprising that the recidivism rate is so high.

First of all, there is a problem with the traditional classification of crimes into only two categories; Felonies and Misdemeanors. In the federal system, a crime is automatically classified as a Felony (without specification of degree) if a crime prescribes a sentence of one year or more; thus, virtually all Federal crimes are Felonies. It would be much more effective and less costly to society, to establish several new categories of crimes and Misdemeanors, such as: Financial Malfeasance, and Controlled Substance Abuse.

Such crimes should carry penalties or rehabilitation sentences more appropriate to their essentially social or property offense.

Thus, when we encounter a case where a Martha Stewart is convicted of committing a Financial Malfeasance, it would have been far better to have assigned her to work in a soup kitchen for the poor. The poor would have voted for that punishment!

If “Kennie Boy” Lay of Enron is ever convicted, there will be many thousands of employees and stockholders that will be urging that he be jailed for a long time, and they may be right, considering the extent of the criminality. However, it somehow seems more appropriate and more punishing, that he be reduced to pauper status, and sentenced to serve as a janitor in a drug half-way house for the remainder of his life. (Notice that he has yet to be tried by his Bush allies in the Justice Department.)

Our obsession with Crime and Punishment is steadily destroying our society. America is either the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave or the largest criminal society on earth; we can’t have it both ways.

The Democratic Party Leadership Is deeply Complicit.

Any American or their family members that have ever been victimized by the corrupt American Criminal Justice System, if they can vote, must never vote for any NFC Republican, or they are voting for an ever expanding Police State, and against their own interests.

The NFC Never Ending War on Drugs

Next came the NFC Republican demand for the generic War on Drugs. This war has caused more incarceration of young, Black, and Latino Americans for victimless crimes, than any other laws in U.S. history. Again the Democratic Party leadership bowed to the Neo-Fascist-Conservatives and agreed to pass ever more oppressive laws to protect us from ourselves, and appropriate additional tens of billions every year to catch and prosecute individuals for personal transgressions, in most cases, involving the virtually harmless use of the Devil Weed, Marijuana.

For example, instead of demanding proper scientific proof of the medical effects of Marijuana (such as the famous study completed by the popular Mayor Fiorello La Guardia) Democratic Party leaders were only too anxious, to appease the NFC Republicans and follow manufactured public opinion, which had been fanned by lies and exaggerations, produced by NFC radical propagandists in the media, and in the police and prison bureaucracies and industries, which are the only ones who benefit from these Police State policies.

The biggest threat to young people are hard drugs such as Heroin, Cocaine, and Methamphetamines, but the entire Federal and State Police Bureaucracy is so busy busting Medical Marijuana, and minor entertainment users of marijuana, they have no time to eradicate the most dangerous drugs from the street.

In July 2005, in an unbelievable demonstration of stupidity, the U.S. Government Drug Enforcement Agency once again announced that the biggest drug threat to America is Marijuana, while the threat from the real dangerous drugs continues to grow in urban and rural areas of the nation.

The Wars on Crime and Drugs together have turned the nation’s inner cities into war zones, and allowed the Federal government to exponentially increase its Police power over State and local police functions. It also insured that hundreds of thousands of young, poor Whites, Blacks, and Latino Americans would never enter the voting booths, for having committed victimless crimes.

In an ironic consequence, Blacks and Latinos are increasingly being recruited into the so-called Criminal Justice field, for employment as jailors, where large numbers of them work in the booming prison industries, guarding and abusing their own people for a corrupt criminal justice system.

The Democratic Party Leadership is deeply Complicit

Any American or their families that have ever been prosecuted and punished for the possession or use of narcotics especially Marijuana, and who can vote, must never vote for the NFC Republicans, or they are voting for the expansion of the Police State, and against their own interests.

The NFC Militarization of American Police Forces

The effects of a never ending Law and Order drumbeat since the 1960s have resulted in the gradual transformation of America’s civilian Police forces into virtual military armies that regularly abuse U.S. citizens, especially in the poor and minority areas. Many departments, even in small cities, now deploy special Police units that look more like Ninja Assassin Squads, than peace officers, in their Special Forces black fatigues, armed with heavy weapons. The Police Chiefs of most major American cities have taken to wearing the insignia of Four Star Generals, clearly sending a message that they are running a military command, and not a civilian police force. Contrast this with the unarmed English Bobbies, and the French Gendarmes and you should get the picture.

This culture of militarization of our civil police forces has led to many high profile instances of excessive force, assault, sadism and murder, by oppressive shoot first cops. Some of these included the high profile cases in New York City, and the case of Rodney King in Los Angeles. Police officers regularly engage in unnecessary killings, unjustified shootings, severe beatings, fatal chokings, and unnecessary, rough physical treatment in cities throughout the United States. Their police superiors, city officials, and even the Justice Department fail to act decisively to restrain or penalize such acts, or even to record the full magnitude of the problem. A handful of Video Camera recordings of cases of incidents of criminal activity by American police are typical of thousands of cases of police abuse every year that go unreported, unproven, or unpunished, because they were not caught on videotape. For example, in 1998, Human Rights Watch reported that only one officer out of 38,000 New York City cops has been dismissed as the result of complaints to the Civilian Complaint Review Board.

In efforts to curtail drug traffic, and related gang violence in their cities, politicians of both parties have frequently given their police direction to use these military assault tactics; and have equipped their departments with heavy weapons more suitable to an Army unit, than a police function. Force has frequently become the first choice; where a negotiator would have been able to defuse the situation. This inevitably leads to violence and the deaths of officers and suspects.

Another favorite tactic of all police forces is the Keystone Cops Car Chase. Regardless of the type of offense or suspicion, any driver attempting to escape becomes a co-dependent partner in an insane high speed race which frequently endangers innocent bystanders and motorists. With the availability of helicopters and traffic cameras, all car chases could become an artifact of an earlier less technological period, if it were not so exciting and so much fun for the police officers.

In recent years the Federal Department of Justice has created Task Forces of Federal, State and Local Police, to deal with Drug trafficking, gang violence, and recently, the never ending Global War On Terror. The unconstitutional threat of this leadership of local and state police by the Feds, poses no problem to most State and local politicians, as long as the federal funds keep flowing. Added to this mix is the use of Regular Army and National Guard assets in an increasing number of cases. By October 2005, U.S. Army Combat units had taken up positions along the southern border to help stop the harmless campesino immigrants trying to find work in the U.S.

During the siege of the Branch Davidians at Waco, Texas, National Guard Tanks and other military weapons systems, including assault helicopters, were used against lightly armed men, and unarmed women, and children. The FBI Hostage Rescue Team, led by a former Army Officer, turned out to be an FBI Death Squad, intent on killing the people in the compound. Many children died in the Holocaust that resulted, and none of the federal agents involved in these murders has ever been punished!

“No Law can be Unjust. The Law is made by the Sovereign Power, and all that is done by such power, is warranted.…”
Thomas Hobbs

In James Bovard’s book, “Freedom in Chains”, he addresses the issue of “Government Immunity” that legitimizes this coercion and criminal abuse of the American people;
“Sovereign Immunity”—P. 188 (excerpts)

To better understand the concept of sovereignty, we will examine some of the injuries that government permits itself to inflict. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes declared in 1907: “A sovereign is exempt from suit… [because] there can be no legal right as against the authority that makes the law on which the right depends” Federal court decisions on lawsuits against federal agencies routinely include the following boilerplate: “Where a suit has not been consented to by the United States, dismissal of the action is required”

“Such judicial genuflection to government was not always the case. In 1793, in the first case involving a lawsuit against a state government, four of the five Supreme Court justices ruled that governments could be sued regardless of whether they deigned to permit such suits (Chisholm v. Georgia) But in 1821, Chief Justice John Marshall, offering no evidence, rewrote the rule book: “The universally received opinion is, that no suit can be commenced or prosecuted against the United States; that the judiciary act does not authorize such suits” (Cited in Davis, Administrative Law Treatise) “A 1945 Supreme Court opinion declared that sovereign immunity is “embedded in the Constitution (Kennecott Copper Corp. v. State Tax Corporation) However, neither law professors nor private citizens victimized by the government have ever been able to find precisely where in the Constitution this doctrine is “embodied.”

“Congress has at various times enacted legislation purportedly to curb the injustices of sovereign immunity. Congress enacted the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) in 1946 to permit lawsuits against the federal government. However, Congress specifically exempted 13 different classes of tort claims from government liability. Citizens are not permitted to sue the federal government for “any claim arising out of assault, battery, false imprisonment, false arrest, malicious prosecution, abuse of process, libel, slander, misrepresentation, deceit, or interference with contract rights.”

“In 1971, in Bivens v. Six Unknown Agents of the federal bureau of Narcotics, the Supreme Court ruled for the first time that individual federal employees could be sued for civil damages for violating citizen’s rights. However, subsequent court decisions made it practically impossible for any citizen to gain a Bivens-type victory in court. In the first 17 years after the Supreme Court decision, 12,000 Americans filed Bivens suits against federal employees; only 30 of the cases resulted in judgments on behalf of the plaintiffs… and only four judgments have actually been paid by the individual federal defendants.”

“The essence of sovereign immunity is that “the king can do no wrong” But as professor Jeremy Travis noted, “The oldest purported rationale for the immunity of the sovereign… is a perversion of its historical intendment, which was that the king was privileged to do no wrong” As one English lawyer explained in the wake of James II’s fall, “When a king…does wrong, he thereby ceases to be king…. God and the law are above the king” But, in the contemporary Statist interpretation, a phrase intended to prevent kings from injuring subjects becomes a license for government abuses of the citizenry.”

“Sovereign immunity creates a two-tier society; those above the law and those below it…”

It is inconceivable that the judiciary of a nation that fought a war of Independence because of abuses by a Sovereign, would so readily award the same license to abuse the citizenry, to the government, in which theoretically the people are Sovereign, not the government officials and agents!

“The total State must not know any difference between Law and Ethics”
Adolf Hitler, Totalitarianism, by Hannah Arendt

The Democratic Party Leadership is deeply Complicit in the destruction of the Sovereign rights of the American people, by an anti-liberal NFC judiciary, and Police State security forces.

Any American or their families that have ever been harmed or abused by a government authority or agent must not vote for any NFC Republican or they perpetuate the perverse idea that the government is Sovereign over the American people.

Fascist and Conservatives have always shown a fear of sex and intimacy. They are constantly complaining about the loss of morals in society, and the excesses of the sexual revolution of the 1960s, especially the liberties of homosexuals to be free to pursue their lives and sexual preferences. Some Psychiatrists have associated these extreme phobias with secret homosexual tendencies or experiences, but history has shown that Fascists and Conservatives frequently have a preference for other more violent perversions; such as child molestation and Sado-Masochism.

Fascist Sexual Phobias:

“A struggle against the poisoning of the soul must begin. Our public life today is like a hothouse for sexual ideas and stimulations. Just look at the bill of fare served up in our movies, vaudeville, and theaters and you will hardly be able to deny that this is not the right kind of food, especially for the youth.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

Hitler had an unnatural sexual relationship with his own niece; which was thought to involve Sado-Masochism, and he was known to be a sexual eunuch. She eventually committed suicide. Heinrich Himmler, head of the SS, and the Gestapo, who headed the most barbaric systems of torture and mass murder in history; was a 24-year old puritanical Christian virgin in 1929, when he was appointed the Reichsfuhrer of the SS.

Goehring was widely known to have had perverse sexual tastes, and Rohm, the head of the SA (Brownshirts), and other leaders of the group who were killed during the Night of the Long Knives, had become notorious for their homosexual habits. When arrested, they were reported by the SS to have been found in bed with their male lovers. (However, this story seems to be in keeping with the Fascist aversion to anything homosexual).
Psychology of Fascism - Sado-Masochism:

“Since the term ‘sado-masochistic’ is associated with ideas of perversion and neurosis, I prefer to speak of the sado-masochist character, especially…the ‘Authoritarian’ character. This terminology is justifiable because the sado-masochistic person is always characterized by his attitudes towards authority. He admires authority and tends to submit to it, but at the same time wants to be an authority himself and have others submit to him. The Fascist system calls itself Authoritarian because of the dominant role of authority in its social and political structure…it represents the personality structure which is the human basis of Fascism.”
Erich Fromm, Social Science Researcher, Frankfurt Institute for Social Research, 1942

Over the years many Homo-Phobic-Conservative politicians that have been the greatest persecutors of gays, have turned out to have been gay themselves, to have close relatives that were gay, or as many experts suggest, have themselves suppressed homosexual tendencies.

For example, in May 2005, the powerful NFC Republican Mayor of Spokane, Washington, who had been a Sheriffs Deputy, Boy Scout Leader and Washington State’s Senate Majority leader, was accused of being a Homosexual, and a pedophile. Mayor Jim West had built his career supporting legislation hostile to gay Rights, including a failed bill to bar gays and lesbians from jobs at schools and day-care centers.

The Spokane Spokesman Review had released the story of Mayor Jim West’s secret life, involving several gay men, including one who he appointed to the Spokane Human Rights Commission. Two other men accused West of having molested them in the late 1970s, when they were 7 and 11 years old, and while he was a Deputy Sheriff and Cub Scout Leader.

The paper had also conducted a highly controversial Internet Sting Operation against West, which involved his meeting with, what he thought was a 17-year boy. The contact was actually a former federal agent. Three members of the paper were there to meet him for his first rendezvous. West, has been forced to admit his gay lifestyle, and is facing an FBI investigation for corruption.

Already, a more pious NFC Republican has stepped up to demand that he step down, accusing him of creating a Tsunami of Hypocrisy. Amen!!

The NFC Republicans and their CNF Crusader allies have always contended that homosexual and lesbian lifestyles are perverse learned behavior that can be treated and prevented. In July 2005 scientific tests with sheep confirmed, what a decade of previous studies had shown, that sexual orientation is largely determined by Genes and Hormones and is hard-wired into the brain in the womb, before birth. The political implications of these results, which are consistency proving that Homosexuality is innate to some people, should once and for all prove that there is no legitimate basis for denying gays equal treatment. The cutting edge research on this biological issue is being done outside the U.S. because of the medieval biblical approach to science of the NFC Republicans and their CNF Crusader moralist allies.

In December 2005 Baptist Minister Lonnie Latham of the South Tulsa Baptist Church in Oklahoma apparently thought he was "pastoring" to the Gay enemy, when he was arrested for propositioning a male Oklahoma City Police officer. Latham, who has constantly spoken out against homosexuality, asked the officer to join him in his hotel room for oral sex. Latham has vehemently spoken out against same-sex marriage, and in support of a Southern Baptist Convention directive urging its 42,000 churches to befriend gays and lesbians and try to convince them that they can become Heterosexual, if they accept Jesus Christ as their savior and reject their sinful, destructive lifestyle.

NFC Republicans do not trust people to use their own free will and self-discipline in any personal matters. They believe that they should set strict rules for every aspect of human behavior, for everyone in society; and they should control the discipline for transgressors. They have no understanding of human behavior, no sense of humor, and are fond of such useless slogans as; Just Say No, or Abstinence Only until Marriage.

This verse from a popular song, fully explains the CNF Republican schizophrenic attitude toward sex.

“Sex is the dirtiest, nastiest, filthiest thing, and you should save it for someone you really love.”

In June 2005, the leader of a NFC Christian lobby group argued that gays should be required to wear warning labels:

“We put warning labels on cigarette packs because we know that smoking takes one to two years off the average life span, yet we ‘celebrate’ a lifestyle that we know spreads every kind of sexually transmitted disease and takes at least 20 years off the average life span.”
Bill Banuchi, Executive Director of the New York Christian Coalition.

Apparently Banuchi wants a warning label before he indulges!

It is not the first time gays have been told they should wear labels. In Nazi Germany, gays were forced to wear a pink triangle to differentiate them from other internees at concentration camps.

The latest NFC wedge issue has been to exploit opposition to the efforts of some homosexual and lesbian couples to get the State governments to legalize homosexual marriages. This phony issue was used by the NFC Republicans against John Kerry. It is unfortunate that this became an issue, because the word Marriage is a religious as well as a legal term in America.

The early 19th Century Napoleonic era in Europe ushered in the Napoleonic Code of laws. The effect of this code was to eliminate the monopoly which the Catholic Church had over the control of all legal documents certifying: Birth, Marriage, and Death. In practice, this was not just a source of income to the Church, but the Church could withhold these documents on religious grounds, and doom a woman to a life as a concubine, or a prostitute, and her children to suffer the social limitations of bastards. To this day, in many European countries, which still observe the Napoleonic Code, there are two ceremonies in every marriage. One is religious, and one is civil. Each is attended with its own set of documents, satisfying both Church and Civil authorities.

Homosexual couples in the U.S., made the mistake of challenging the Anglo-Saxon religio-legal concept of Marriage, (which Barron’s Law Dictionary defines as “ a voluntary union of a man and a woman”), when all they had to do was to insist on Civil (Legal) recognition of their union, which already exists in many jurisdictions. This would have enabled them to have a civil ceremony, even if it was to create a partnership, and call their ceremony a Wedding. If they still wanted to have a ceremony called a Marriage, they could subsequently find a willing minister, or go into any Church and exchange vows without a middleman present.

By challenging the religio-legal concept of Marriage, they created a Civil Law hornet’s nest of political controversy, and gave the CNF Crusaders another wedge issue to use on Democratic Party candidates, thereby hurting their own cause.

NFC Brutality in Blue

In 2005, Amnesty International released its groundbreaking report: Stonewalled: Police Abuse and Misconduct Against Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) People in the U.S. This report provides the evidence, based on exhaustive research including more than 170 interviews with survivors and advocates, surveys of dozens of police departments and investigations of police policies and training in four major cities found…that a range of discriminatory practices, from selective enforcement of the law, such as profiling gay men as public-sex offenders and transgender women as prostitutes, to selective non-enforcement during investigations of hate crimes and domestic violence is widespread across the country.

The AI report also found that among the LGBT community, people of color, youth, the homeless, and immigrants are at greater risk of police abuse.

The persecution of LGBT people by police reflects the effect of the CNF Crusader campaign to scapegoat these Americans; which has permeated the entire country. The results have begun to show up in Gallup polls. In 1999, Gallup’s polls found that 50% of Americans “considered homosexuality an acceptable lifestyle.” One month after the Supreme Court’s Lawrence v. Texas decision in 2003, decriminalizing sodomy, and for the first time in a decade, acceptance of homosexuality had fallen significantly.

THE WAR ON BARBIE

The Concerned Women for America (CWA), a radical right-wing group which works on "reversing the decline in moral values in our nation," has criticized the Barbie doll and its manufacturer, Mattel, for being influenced by the "transgender movement." Apparently Barbie is not feminine enough. CWA's Bob Knight said Barbie is anti-Christian: "[Barbie is] really steering girls away from the idea of womanhood as, predominantly, in terms of Christians, serving the Lord, getting married, having kids, building a home.”

The Christian Nationalist Crusaders are winning their abominable war of sexual bigotry and spreading their sick philosophy all across the globe.

Sweden, a country known for the tolerance of its people, is not immune to the rise of these Cristo-Fascist pogroms against homosexuals. In November 2005, a Swedish Pentecostal clergyman was cleared on charges of inciting hatred against homosexuals by declaring from the pulpit that their orientation is a “cancerous tumor on all of society.” The Swedish Supreme Court upheld an appeals court, which had overturned the Rev. Ake Green's 2004 conviction under Swedish Hate crimes law in a case that has drawn international attention. Homosexual rights groups warned of “growing religious agitation” in Sweden that could spread to Muslims and Jews.

The NFC Republicans are constantly beating the Law and Order drum and have created a nationwide Gulag of U.S. prisons in the U.S. Many of these prisons make no effort to stop homosexual rapes. The prisons in many Christian countries provide for Conjugal visits by the wives of inmates with good behavior. The CNF Crusaders, who have campaigned against homosexuality for decades, are nowhere to be seen demanding that prison rape be eliminated, and that conjugal visits be required to provide normal sex lives for inmates.

Any LGBT person or their families must never vote for NFC Republicans or they will be voting for their eternal enemies and against their own interests.

The NFC War on Hollywood - America’s Babylon

The NFC Republicans have been in a continuous war of domination with the American Entertainment industry for decades. In the 1930s they demanded that the industry impose their strict decency rules on all films, plays, music, etc. The Hollywood studio heads bowed to pressure from the Catholic Church and the Fundamentalist Protestants and instituted the Hays Production Code, which was imposed on all motion pictures. These Puritanical codes were imposed on adults as well as children, and led the American movies to produce films which were qualitatively and realistically inferior to those in Europe where such rules were rejected.

“ The fact that nine tenths of all literary filth, artistic trash , and theatrical idiocy can be set to the account of a people (Jews), constituting hardly one hundredth of all the country’s inhabitants, could simply not be talked away.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

This cultural war has not always been the so heated. During World War II, the motion picture and other entertainment sectors experienced a period of peaceful co-existence; as they cooperated fully with the Government in producing war propaganda films. In fact some of America’s greatest Conservative idols, John Wayne and Ronald Reagan, were able to avoid combat and still look tough; fighting their make believe propaganda battles on the back lots of Hollywood studios. This cooperation was accepted by the film industry because of the genuine threat which original Fascism posed to the survival of Liberal Democratic civilization.

The socially liberal Clark Gable, and the Moderate Jimmy Stewart, flew real tours of Combat duty over Germany and the Pacific.

Cultural Warfare- A feature of all Fascist Movements:

“The cleansing of our culture must be extended to nearly all fields. Theater, Art, Literature, Cinema, Press, Posters, and window displays must be cleansed of all manifestations of our rotting world and placed in the service of a moral, political, and cultural idea.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

Beginning with the Korean War, artists and producers began to reflect the cynicism of the American people with government lies and propaganda, concerning the need to invade, make war, and destroy third world countries, in order to save them, for capitalism. Although the Conservative politicians in Government claimed that it was necessary to fight the spread of International Communism; Americans were already becoming weary of Empire, and being the world’s Dominator and Policeman.

This tension between the entertainment industry and the Conservatives, and the National Security branches of the Government, became worse during and after the controversial Vietnam War, as the industry again began to reflect the genuine disgust of war and the peaceful inclinations of most Americans.

Fascists always seek control of the Art World for Propaganda purposes.

Repressive Conservative Fascist and Bolshevik authoritarian regimes have always sought to control the media, entertainment, and art industries, which are thought to unfavorably influence the minds of the people against the militarist totalitarian state.

Their complaints have generally been raised against what was considered decadent Liberal entertainment, such as rock and rap music, sexually explicit shows, books, and movies, and anti-government and anti-religious themes. Violence, which is endemic in American motion pictures and video games, was ignored, as it was thought to build up the machismo qualities of the American male and prepare him for military service. The U.S. Army even issued its own combat Video game for recruiting purposes.

Fascists Seek Domination of Art and Cultural Life:

“The new national art of Germany will enjoy respect in the world and bear witness beyond the frontiers of our country to the intense cultural dynamism of the new Germany if it is firmly and ineradically rooted in the mother earth of the National culture.”
Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Propaganda Minister, March 1939

It was instructive that, whenever American rock musicians visited totalitarian regimes, such as the ultra-Conservative Communist bloc countries, they were widely applauded by the people, and criticized by their so-called Left Wing governments! The first sign of the collapse of a Conservative Dictatorial government was when its teenagers begin to collect and play Liberal Western music. This was true with the Swing Clubs that defied the Hitler regime in Nazi Germany, the American and English Rock music fans in the Eastern Bloc countries of the Soviet Union, rock music fans in China, and all across the globe.

Cultural Conformity in the service of the State:

“We shall discover and encourage artists who will imprint on the new German State the cultural stamp of the German race, which shall be valid for all time.”
Adolf Hitler, Berlin 1935

The Age of Orwell’s Thought Police has finally arrived, and the Democratic Party has failed to challenge this classic NFC Republican urge for censorship of popular culture, and for demanding that only favorable propaganda about government actions should be viewed by the people.

Any American, who opposes censorship and believes in Free Will and Artistic Freedom, must not vote for any NFC Republican or they are voting against their exercise of free will.

The NFC War on “Popular Culture”

“Public life must be freed from the stifling perfume of our modern eroticism, just as it must be freed from all unmanly, prudish hypocrisy.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

The NFC Republicans have waged a war on the Arts and popular culture for the past 50 years, constantly trying to dictate taste and morals to the entire art world including; motion pictures, music, radio, painting, photography, magazines and books, etc. In short they want to control every aspect of American society. The stifling conformity they advocate is very similar to the first fascists. In this campaign they have always been prodded into action by the CNF Crusaders, who claim to know what’s best for all the rest of us.
