Undocumented in the military

USA Today article about letting illegal immigrants join the US military

What rights do illegals have?
Does an illegal have the right to ‘rights’?
When do these rights begin?

The answer is…

There is a God, our rights come from him. The purpose of civil government is to protect those rights. This is the American understanding of the purpose of law and government which comes from the Declaration of Independence.

There are other views of governments purpose, such as to make sure everyone has their seatbelt on, wearing a helmet, access to affordable healthcare, a mortgage, free money and a cell phone, etc. That’s not the American view I would argue. Check the declaration. It’s not a revolutionary concept. It’s a restoration of ancient rights.

These are foolish things that are happening these days. The govt is being held in lower esteem everyday because of decisions like allowing non citizens aka “illegals” to join the military. How about joining the country first? We have a process that worked for a couple hundred years. If you aren’t a citizen or naturalized (previously a non-citizen granted citizenship ) you are a visitor.

Should the military be giving these visitors firearms? Fully automatic tactical ones?

Shouldn’t the citizens be granted these rights first?

Anyone know what they do with people who ask too many questions?

When purchasing school supplies, watch out for children receiving communism training.

When I found out about this a few years back, it made me crazy.  This is a good reminder to watch out how our children are being indoctrinated by the progressives.  We should all train our children to recognize this nonsense at an early age.  There is no reason to donate your supplies so some teacher can anonymously provide them.  If you want to give a pencil to another child directly, go ahead, but end this state-ist behavior.

HealthCare.gov not a safe place for HIPAA data.

How do they know data was not taken? I love the ‘no obligation’ comment.  What happened to transparency?  This is one of the reasons we been saying it is not good to have all this information in one place, especially when the site is built by government contractors who are trying to do the least possible to get paid. Absolutely shameful.

Unemployment remains worse since 1940, and more lies.

I’m sick of everyone talking about the ‘recovery’ because it is still not happening.

Here are the REAL unemployment numbers that haven’t been tinkered by the current administration.

It is holding steady at 12%

For those paying attention, this is the worst since 1940.

In addition, personal income and wealth is still dropping for the vast majority of americans.

This is made even worse by the outright lies about inflation, which is currently stuck at 10%.

http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-charts

So of the people that ARE working, median income fell during the past 4 years by 5%, using fake inflation numbers.  Lets just say the adjustment was half, so the median income fell 2.5%, and over the same period, prices are up about 40%. Basically this means people are making TWO THIRDS of what they were 5 years ago!!! This is INSANE.  We must hold these people responsible for their lies.

The origin of Blue Laws

15 In those days I saw in Judah some who were treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sacks of grain and loading them on donkeys, as well as wine, grapes, figs and all kinds of loads, and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. So I admonished them on the day they sold food. 16 Also men of Tyre were living [k]there who imported fish and all kinds of merchandise, and sold them to the sons of Judah on the sabbath, even in Jerusalem. 17 Then I [l]reprimanded the nobles of Judah and said to them, “What is this evil thing you are doing, [m]by profaning the sabbath day? 18 Did not your fathers do the same, so that our God brought on us and on this city all this trouble? Yet you are adding to the wrath on Israel by profaning the sabbath.”

19 It came about that just as it grew dark at the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut [n]and that they should not open them until after the sabbath. Then I stationed some of my servants at the gates so that no load would enter on the sabbath day. 20 Once or twice the traders and merchants of every kind of merchandise spent the night outside Jerusalem. 21 Then I [o]warned them and said to them, “Why do you spend the night in front of the wall? If you do so again, I will [p]use force against you.” From that time on they did not come on the sabbath. 22 And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves and come as gatekeepers to sanctify the sabbath day. For this also remember me, O my God, and have compassion on me according to the greatness of Your lovingkindness.

-Nehemiah 13 NASB

So not only did the people of Israel not work on the sabbath, but they realized that they should not enable others (even unbelievers) to work on the sabbath.  In fact, they threatened them with force if they showed up at the city trying to sell on the sabbath.  This is very interesting indeed.

Abandoning the Law of the LORD

Leave a comment

 2 Chr 12 tell us “After Rehoboam’s position as king was established and he had become strong, he and all Israel with him abandoned the law of the Lord.”  Although I believe the promises in chapter 7 were made directly to Israel, and not America, I believe that the principles are clear.  Our present day version of this is that “After the POTUS was established and he had become strong, he and all the United States abandoned the law of the LORD.”  Just like Judah was punished by the Egyptians, we are being plundered now by corrupt politicians and big business.  The cause is the same 14 “He did evil because he did not set his heart to seek the Lord.”  So what is our course of action?  Look back at verse 7 ‘When the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves so I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some measure of deliverance, and My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by means of Shishak”‘  Those of us who know the LORD, and the scriptures, it is our responsibility to return to the law of the LORD, and to seek Him.  May we do our part.
