Dear Mississippi Tea Party: Are You Sure Inciting Treason Isn't A Crime?

[Budget Player Cadet]

With its 5-4 ruling upholding Obamacare the US Supreme Court has joined with the Executive and Legislative branches of the federal government in abandoning the Constitution, the Rule of Law, and with that ruling abandoned the People. All of us are now simply chattel of the government to be used and ordered about as they choose. The history books will mark this date as the day our constitutional republic was killed. It will now rest with We The People to decide if it will be resurrected or left to rot in the shallow grave dug for it.

[...]

Those “occupiers” now controlling the three federal branches of government have joined together in rejecting all Constitutional restraint and in doing so they have severely violated their oaths to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Together they now stand as blatant usurpers of power and have reduced our constitutional republic, along with all of its freedoms, to nothing more than a dictatorial junta. Becoming a banana republic is next.

[...]

In such cases submission is treason. Treason against the Constitution and the valid legitimate government of the nation to which we have pledged our allegiance for years. To resist by all means that are right in the eyes of God is not rebellion or insurrection, it is patriotic resistance to invasion.

[...]

I can't quote the whole thing due to content rules here, but you should go read it, it's really worth a look.

Guys, can we stop? Please? It's over, you lost (twice!), give it a rest. You lost in the public arena, where you tried to use democratic means to stop mandated health care reform. You failed in the courts, who went ahead and said "Nope, this is constitutional". What's next? Violent rebellion?

...Oh shit, you're serious about that.

Ugh. Fucking retards. And people ask me why I favor gun control.

[Slithy Tove]

You mean next the government is going to force us all to eat bananas?

[Vinyl Turnip]

In fairness, this victory has made Obama even more uppity, and SOMEONE needs to remind him of his place.

[elbows]

The Tea Partiers seem all about 'We the People', y'know, as long as they are in the majority position. Especially on issues like abortion or gay rights. Now that theirs is a minority position, and 'We the People' have sided against them, it's like we're all just traitors to the founding fathers! I don't think they fully grasp the concept 'We the People'.

[stpauler]

I love how at the end (?) they began invoking God for some reason as rationale as to why they should be righteous in their treason to keep affordable healthcare out of the hands of the poor.

[asterion]

Yes, as we all know, Jesus was all about letting the sick and the poor suffer instead of doing something about it.

damn straight - no fishes or loaves for the masses! and they can drink the water, this wine is for the finer folk!

After all, if we share it with anyone, we'll never have enough!

[Zebra]

It's only in Luke but Jesus charged a lot of money for healing the sick.

[Attack from the 3rd dimension]

I'm not sure that's what "charged the leper" means.

Cite?

[Chimera]

I'm starting to want our government to actually do something about all these morons who are advocating armed revolution. It is against the law and ignoring them isn't helping anything.

The only problem I see with it is that since the Feds haven't done it yet, if they do it after Obama is re-elected, the nutjobs will go off the deep end with "See? Dictatorship!" and it will only make the problem worse.

Which means that NOW is the time for them to take action, if they mean to do it at all.

It means rebuked or warned. No money changed hands.

[elucidator]

Lepers are very sensitive, easily upset. Ask them for money, they just totally fall apart.

The OP left out my favorite part:

Do the people of the world recognize that the shadow of darkness is now fallen upon them as well and that there remains no defender of their feeble freedoms? The all out oppression of all people has begun.

Sounds serious!

Did he get to keep the tip?

[Manda JO]

Is "The Mississipi Tea Party" a significant organization, or two guys with a webpage?

Sneer all you like, but I can point you to any number of "masculist" websites where hating liberals is as considered as manly as hating feminists.

The general idea is that anything a society does to benefit a) any group other than men, or b) everybody in general, is detrimental to men's self-determination and (more importantly) the "natural law" of manhood, which is that we're violent competitive bullies and you better be grateful we are.

Legitimate question.

Another legitimate question: do the other tea party branches see this differently? I think the answers are, respectively, "Relatively insignificant" and "no".

[Budget Player Cadet]

Err, by "Relatively insignificant" I mean them, not the question.

Not in public, of course. Wine consumption could cause dancing.

In the town where I grew up, the ABC store had a massive brick wall coming off the side of the building and running parallel to the road. It was known as the "Baptist Wall" -- vehicles parked behind the wall weren't visible from the road.

Goes to show that its not God people are hiding from , its the judgmental folks they go to church with.

Wine is responsible for Jesus' temptation into evil...

[elucidator]

It was his Mom's idea.

Sounds serious!

The federal government wants me to have private medical insurance, whether or not I have a pre-existing condition! Help, help, I'm being oppressed!

Note they don't even really have a website, at least not a domain of their own. Ning.com looks to be kind of like a Geocities type thing.

Of course they don't! THE INTERNET IS CONTROLLED BY LIBERALS!!!!!!1!!! Take note of the fact that niggers, spics, jews, women (Angie's List!) can all get THEIR OWN DOMAINS. But try to register FUCKOBAMASAMERICA.COM and see what happens?!?!!/?1??? It's a conspiRACEy against white men DAMMMIT!

[elucidator]

googled it. Bad news, hits. Good news, sort of.....not many.

[Try2B Comprehensive]

In all fairness, what has the Tea Party so upset is the 'All shall kneel before Zod' provisions of the ACA, not the health insurance part.

[Chimera]

Only Zod haters are worried about that. Just kneel and get it over with.

But they won't. The government always gives a lot more leeway to right wing groups than left wing ones; the government would be all over a left wing group that talked like this. Until these guys start actually killing people the government will likely refuse even to investigate them.

Seems kind of pointless, unless the store had a rear entrance. (Baptists might have other uses for the rear entrance, of course.)

Zod or ZOG?

That's not true. They're afraid people will think they're dancing.

Please don't use the term retard. Especially when comparing the mentally retarded to Mississippi Tea Partiers - it insults the mentally retarded.

[Boyo Jim]

I must admit to being intrigued by the idea that obeying the law is treasonous. Do they have a newsletter I can subscribe to?

[elucidator]

Sure, but through the mail, sometimes the crayons smear.

I am a firm believer in pseudolaw, which gives me the freedom to disobey practically any government rule I want to. But these folk have set a new (inverse?, obverse?, reverse?) standard -- that obeying the law constitutes a crime.

I don't think they've considered what is going to happen when there are like a thousand times more prisoners then there are now.

Did I get it wrong or am I being whooshed?

That would mean about 9,250,000,000 prisoners; so we'd better get to breeding to produce the necessary people to fill the prisons with!

Whooshed. ZOG = "Zionist Occupation Government", a hobgoblin of some right wing groups.

[elucidator]

Protocols of the Elders of the Zion Baptist Church?

But if you believe you can just no obey any law you want, can't they disobey the law that says you have to obey the law?

[elucidator]

But that might cause a rip in the fabric of space time! Think, man! Think!
