PRE-INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION

(Or, TEETH AND TONGUE, THEY ARE ONE) :

.

As one who cherishes the First Amendment, I also recognize the importance of upholding the Second Amendment, without which there would be NO First Amendment right. (The good people in Russia, China, Cambodia, et al., had no freedom of speech because they had no means by which to defend it against their dictators and tyrants who had authority over the military.) Lose the teeth in the 2nd Amendment and you’ve lost the tongue in the 1st Amendment – guaranteed! Lose the Second right and the First right will also fall very quickly.

~ Stephen T. McCarthy

INTRODUCTION:

.

The Federal Government is NOT your friend. The Federal Government, or “Uncle Sam”, is not genuinely concerned about your welfare. What your not-so-Good Uncle really desires to do is limit your liberties and keep you under as much control as possible. You may or may not be politically astute enough to recognize that Uncle Sam is your enemy but regardless, you can be certain that Uncle Sam views the Americonned sheeple as his enemy. Any American who is unaware of this has a hell of an awful lot of history to learn before he or she may begin to consider theirself an educated citizen and informed patriot.

.

It’s not that Uncle Sam is merely inept or morally bad. Uncle Sam is a wicked agent of the devil; his capacity for evil cannot even be imagined by the average American who does not generally entertain thoughts of such malevolence.

.

QUESTION:

Who is “Uncle Sam”?

.

ANSWER:

Uncle Sam is the United States Government, which is owned and operated by International Bankers and other Illuminati characters who are in the process of setting the stage for the eventual entrance of the satanic human “Beast”, as described in The Holy Bible’s book of ‘Revelation’.

.

Alright, let’s move on to some relevant quotes and verifiable facts . . .

.

THE MEAT AND POTATOES OF GUN RIGHTS AND GUN CONTROL:

.

The principal purpose for our Founding Fathers insisting upon our Second Amendment (gun ownership) right was so that We The People could defend our country and our way of life against a foreign invader and against a tyrannical, militarized American government that might someday develop and attempt to steal our liberties.

.

The Second Amendment reads thus: “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” This prohibition indicates that the security of liberty against the tyrannical tendency of government is only to be found in the right of the people to keep and bear arms in resisting the wrongs of government.

~ John Randolph Tucker; 1899

(Attorney General of Virginia and President of the American Bar Association)

.

The right of self defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever … the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction.

~ St. George Tucker

(Founding Father twice wounded during the American Revolution)

.

It [is] a chimerical idea to suppose that a country like this could ever be enslaved. How is an army for that purpose to … subdue a nation of freemen who know how to prize liberty and who have arms in their hands?

~ Theodore Sedgwick

(A Revolutionary War soldier and a framer of the Second Amendment in the First Congress)

.

Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed – as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword because the whole body of the people are armed.

~ Noah Webster

(Revolutionary soldier, Congressional Founding Father and legislator)

.

What America has most to fear is … our own good-hearted, well-meaning fellow citizens of the liberal persuasion, whose unintended effect has been to sap the survival powers of free societies everywhere.

~ William Rusher

(Special Counsel to the Internal Security Subcommittee of the U.S. Senate)

.

Alexander Cockburn attended a gun/militia rally of 2,500 and in 1995 reported that he was pleasantly surprised to discover that the populist issues raised were similar to the concerns of the left. … When given a copy of a speech just presented, Cockburn said, “Most of it could have been delivered by a leftist in the late sixties without changing a comma.” Cockburn asked why people who object to oppressive governments and economic regulations as in Mexico are hailed as heroes by progressives, but when Americans try to defend their rights over similar oppressive government policies, progressives call these people right wing extremists and paranoid racists.

.

If you are going to maintain a large national security state, there must be a threat to justify its continued existence. … For the security state to continue, there must sometimes be large terrorist acts in the U.S. The last thing the national security state wants is peace and no enemies.

~ Gurudas [Ronald Lee Garman]

.

It has often been stated by pro-gun control advocates that because the various states now have organized National Guard units, the Guards form the modern day militia, and therefore the American citizens have no right to be armed with powerful weapons and the Second Amendment no longer applies to the people at large.

.

First of all, history shows that the National Guards ultimately take their orders from the president, NOT the governors of the individual states. (John Kennedy schooled Governor George Wallace on that fact in 1963.) So pretending that the National Guard is the new militia that would protect the American people from a tyrannical federal government is complete nonsense which our Founding Fathers would shout down immediately:

.

To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them. … The militia shall always … include, according to the past and general usage of the States, all men capable of bearing arms. … A militia … are in fact the people themselves … [and] are for the most part employed at home in their private concerns.

~ Richard Henry Lee

(Signer of The Declaration Of Independence and a framer of the Second Amendment)

.

The militia is composed of free citizens.

~ Samuel Adams

(Signer of The Declaration Of Independence known as “Father Of The American Revolution”, and a brewer of fine ales)

.

The militia … are … the people at large.

~ Tench Coxe

(Attorney General of Pennsylvania and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under President George Washington)

.

Who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people.

~ George Mason

(“Father of The Bill Of Rights”, and my very favorite Founding Father)

.

DO WE HAVE ANY REASON TO DISTRUST OUR UNCLE SAM?:

.

On May 10, 1994, 300 Marines at the Twenty-Nine Palms Marine Corps base were instructed by Lt. Commander Guy Cunningham to fill out a 46-question Combat Arms Survey which included a number of disturbing questions including whether or not they would swear allegiance to the United Nations. Question 46 proposed this scenario . . . The United States government bans all non-sporting firearms with a 30-day amnesty period. After 30 days, if U.S. citizens refuse to surrender their weapons, the survey asks whether or not they would follow orders to fire upon U.S. citizens who refused or resisted confiscation of firearms banned by the U.S. government.

.

While the U.S. Defense Department and the Department of the Navy claimed that this survey was given to troops at only the one military base, the truth is that it (or one very similar) was administered on many military bases, including to Navy Seal units in Sept. and Oct. of 1993. And there is reason to suspect that the traitorous ‘Council on Foreign Relations’ (CFR) organization may have played a part in the dissemination of this survey. [About 80% of the soldiers answered “No” to the question about killing American citizens who refuse to give up their guns.]

.

A House of Representatives member from California, Bob Dornan, wanted to conduct a Congressional investigation into the survey’s origins and intentions, but the House leadership blocked his efforts.

.

Perhaps the 80% negative response to these disturbing military surveys is the reason that so many foreign soldiers and their foreign military equipment have been brought onto military bases throughout America.

.

On September 21, 1992, [president George] Bush said at the United Nations: “The U.S. is prepared to make available our bases and facilities for multinational training and field exercises.” Today, there are growing reports of foreign troops and military equipment in the U.S. In 1994, the Pentagon admitted that there were then 5,000 foreign troops in the U.S. That same year, NBC reported that 500 Russian troops would be in the U.S. in 1995.

.

By 1996, the latest Russian military equipment began showing up across the U.S., including SA-13 missile launchers, BTR-60 armored personnel carriers, T-72 and T-80 tanks, etc. There were clearly too many Russian tanks and armor here to simply be used in target practice and training exercises as the government claimed. And suspiciously, the Pentagon failed to list them among inventories of military equipment.

.

According to the Sept. 25, 1994 ‘Daily News’ in Alamogordo, New Mexico, there were “500 (foreign) operational tracked and wheeled vehicles” at the White Sands Missile Range in Alamogordo. The article included a photo of a long row of T-72 tanks which “stand at the ready”. Ready for WHAT?

.

For a couple decades now, military and paramilitary exercises involving live ammunition have been conducted at night in urban areas in various states across the nation. Will large numbers of foreign troops eventually be used to disarm Americans while much of the U.S. military is weakened and stationed overseas? Meanwhile, reports of Russian, Chinese, and German troops on American soil continue to surface in stories from alternative news sources. 

.

[Much of the preceding eight paragraphs was excerpted, and in some places paraphrased, from the excellent book ‘TREASON: The New World Order’ by Gurudas - real name: Ronald Lee Garman.]

.

Over the years, I have periodically stated that “Thirty minutes after the American people are disarmed, Russian, Chinese, and German troops will be driving tanks right down Main Street U.S.A.” Of course, that’s give or take fifteen minutes.

.

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to reason, and a time to fight. And when it comes to the infringement of our Second Amendment rights, the season to reason has passed. It’s time to fight.

.

Alex Jones first made a name for himself by sneaking a video camera into the Bohemian Grove and recording one of the secret pagan rites of the elite ‘New World Order’ architects. What’s the ‘New World Order’? That’s a plan that has been in place for a long time whereby the world’s wealthiest villainous rats intend to dissolve all national sovereignty, to be replaced with a single Global Government that they will control – a tyranny of worldwide proportions by which you and I will be ruled by an iron fist. (Think: George Orwell’s ‘1984’ ruthlessly magnified 84 times in terms of power, control and torture.) 

.

There is nothing – LITERALLY NOTHING! – the New World Order’s evil architects would not do to We The People if they thought it would help them achieve their global goal (which The Bible tells us WILL be achieved for a time.)

.

Some patriotic Americans will not be disarmed and enslaved without a real fight to the death. Clearly, Alex Jones is one of those patriots. A lot of idealistic, knee-jerk jerks of the Liberal persuasion believe along the lines of dead John Lennon: “Imagine there's no countries - it isn't hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too.” These folks don’t think, they only FEEL (and in so doing they fall right into the hands of the ‘New World Order’ architects). Now try to imagine a patriot like Alex Jones embracing that Pop fluff of stupendous, stupefying stupidity.

.

Like I said, the real American patriots understand history too well to ever allow themselves to be quietly disarmed piece by piece, gun type by gun type, in order to be enslaved by arrogant Elite masters of a fearful ‘New World Order’ (NWO).

.

Piers Morgan is an “Englisher” who’s been in the news lately by floating gun control “trial balloons” and doing the bidding of the NWO rats by debating American anti-gun control proponents of the Second Amendment. He recently made the mistake of inviting Alex Jones on his program for one of these debates. Jones, who knows the gig, showed up in NO MOOD for any of that foreigner’s pantywaist, foppish Liberal views.

.

While Alex Jones has been greatly criticized for his unprofessional, over-the-top antagonistic demeanor on Piers Morgan’s show, I actually applaud his passion and commitment to his Constitutional right. Alex Jones ripped into Morgan like a ravenous dog tearing into a big British meat pie! Right from the get-go Jones was all roostered up, and at one point was even on the brink of leaping out of his chair and thrashing that moronic meat pie on television. He even went so far as challenging Morgan to a fight in a boxing ring (Jones didn’t mention whether or not he thought they ought to respect the Marquess of Queensberry rules.)

.

And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. 

~ Thomas Jefferson

.

John Basil Barnhill said: Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.

.

I got the feeling that at times Alex Jones was not speaking so much to Piers Morgan as he was to the NWO Wizards Behind The Curtain who are using Piers Morgan to condition the American people to the idea that greater gun control is necessary and coming. I think Jones was really attempting to put a little fear into Uncle Sam, letting him know that there WILL BE a fight in the future, and not a rolling over and surrendering on the part of the informed American patriots.

.

Here’s Part 1 Of 2 of the Piers Morgan vs. Alex Jones debate:

.

Below is the second part of the interview. I was particularly amused at the 5:40 point, where Jones begins to mock Morgan’s accent.

.

Alex Jones speaking with a faux upper crust English accent:

“I probably own more than fifty firearms; many of them have increased in value two, three, or even four times. I sleep very comfortably outside Austin, Texas, knowing that I can defend my family.”

.

Some of my readers may be unaware of what Alex Jones is shouting about when he refers to “False Flag” operations and prescription drugs being responsible for the recent spate of tragic indiscriminate shootings. I’ll explain:

.

FALSE FLAG OPERATIONS:
.

'False Flag' operations are when a government or people in power within a government commit acts of terrorism against their own people or deliberately allow others to commit acts of terrorism against their own people as a pretext to further an agenda.

.

The Reichstag fire in Nazi Germany was most likely a False Flag act. Unfortunately, False Flag events are not uncommon in the U.S.A. The sinking of the Lusitania, the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Gulf Of Tonkin affair, the Murrah Building bombing in Oklahoma City, and 9/11 in New York are all examples of False Flag acts committed against American citizens.

.

It’s shocking how many Americans are still utterly oblivious to “The Smoking Gun” of the 9/11 False Flag crime. I know my good buddy Sig believes the inordinate number of American Airlines and United Airlines ‘put options’ recorded in the stock market just prior to 9/11 constitutes “The Smoking Gun”. I’ll concede that with 9/11 there were multiple “Smoking Guns” and the ‘put options’ was certainly one of them.

.

But I personally consider the smoking rubble of the collapsed World Trade Center Tower number 7 late in the day of September 11, 2001 (although it was NEVER struck by a hijacked airplane) to be the more dramatic “Smoking Gun”. For one thing, it’s something you can actually SEE:

.

4409 -- (Unseen Footage) Tower 7 blasted into rubble from NEW angle!

.

.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=972ETepp4GI

.

It’s not surprising that Tower 7 has not been commonly recognized as a 9/11 “Smoking Gun” considering the fact that most Americans still don’t know the first thing about it.

.

Last week while at work, I polled 15 individuals with this question: “As a result of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, how many buildings fell to the ground in New York City?” Here is the final tally:

.

One building: one

Two buildings: six

Three buildings: three

Four buildings: one

Six buildings: one

“I have no idea”: three

.

The correct answer, of course, is three buildings – Towers 1, 2, and 7.

.

So, did three of the folks polled know that 9/11 was a False Flag event? No, only one did. One person who got the answer correct thought that Tower 7 fell because one of the other Towers fell on top of it; and another person who answered correctly thought that “earth tremors” caused Tower 7 to fall. One of the three women who answered “I have no idea” explained her ignorance by saying, “I don’t follow bad news.” A good American patriot that one is, eh?

.

PRESCRIPTION DRUGS AND KILLING MACHINES:

.

What did Alex Jones mean when referring to drugs turning people into killing machines?

.

Guns, regardless of their type (fully automatic, semi-automatic, single-shot rifles and revolvers), have not become more violent in recent times. What has become more violent is the American people. The reason we are having so many nonsensical public shootings is three-fold: 1) The God of The Bible and His principles have been all but systematically removed from the public square. 2) Extreme forms of violence (e.g., movies, video games, “sporting” contests, etc.) are now universally considered to be forms of “entertainment”. 3) The American people are being “juiced up” on psychiatric drugs that have terrible and often extremely dangerous and even deadly side effects.

.

The common denominator in the vast majority of tragic gun-related rampages in recent times is the presence of psychiatric drugs prescribed to people by doctors for a variety of reasons ranging from depression to “attention deficit disorder”.

.

The following excerpts from the important article, ‘THE GIANT, GAPING HOLE IN SANDY HOOK REPORTING’ by David Kupelian, more than hints at the problem:

.

Columbine mass-killer Eric Harris was taking Luvox ...

.

Patrick Purdy went on a schoolyard shooting rampage in Stockton, Calif., in 1989. … Purdy, who murdered five children and wounded 30, had been on Amitriptyline, an antidepressant, as well as the antipsychotic drug Thorazine.

.

Kip Kinkel, 15, murdered his parents in 1998 and the next day went to his school, Thurston High in Springfield, Ore., and opened fire on his classmates, killing two and wounding 22 others. He had been prescribed both Prozac and Ritalin.

.

In 1988, 31-year-old Laurie Dann went on a shooting rampage in a second-grade classroom in Winnetka, Ill., killing one child and wounding six. She had been taking the antidepressant Anafranil as well as Lithium…

.

In Paducah, KY., in late 1997, 14-year-old Michael Carneal … traveled to Heath High School and started shooting students in a prayer meeting … killing three and leaving another paralyzed. Carneal reportedly was on Ritalin.

.

In 2005, 16-year-old Native American Jeff Weise, living on Minnesota’s Red Lake Indian Reservation, shot and killed nine people and wounded five others before killing himself. Weise had been taking Prozac.

.

Joseph T. Wesbecker, just a month after he began taking Prozac in 1989, shot 20 workers at Standard Gravure Corp. in Louisville, KY., killing nine.

.

Kurt Danysh, 18, shot his own father to death in 1996, a little more than two weeks after starting on Prozac.

,

John Hinckley, age 25, took four Valium two hours before shooting and almost killing President Ronald Reagan in 1981.

.

Andrea Yates … drowned all five of her children – aged 7 years down to 6 months – in a bathtub. Insisting inner voices commanded her to kill her children, she had become increasingly psychotic over the course of several years. … Yates had been taking the antidepressant Effexor. In November 2005, more than four years after Yates drowned her children, Effexor manufacturer Wyeth Pharmaceuticals quietly added “homicidal ideation” to the drug’s list of “rare adverse events.”

.

12-year-old Christopher Pittman, … struggled in court to explain why he murdered his grandparents, who had provided the only love and stability he’d ever known in his turbulent life. … his doctors had him taking the antidepressants Paxil and Zoloft just prior to the murders. Paxil’s known “adverse drug reactions” – according to the drug’s FDA-approved label – include “mania,” “insomnia,” “anxiety,” “agitation,” “confusion,” “amnesia,” “depression,” “paranoid reaction,” “psychosis,” “hostility,” “delirium,” “hallucinations,” “abnormal thinking,” “depersonalization” and “lack of emotion,” among others.

.

The preceding examples are only a few of the best-known offenders who had been taking prescribed psychiatric drugs before committing their violent crimes – there are many others. …

.

So, what ‘medication’ was [Adam] Lanza on [when he started shooting at the Newtown, Connecticut, elementary school]?

.

Was the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting a “False Flag” event? I am nowhere near proclaiming that it was, but there remains a number of unsettling questions, and Uncle Sam and his representatives don’t seem eager to finally set the story straight:

.

.

Sandy Hook: Cop in CT on Contradictions, Inconsistencies & Gun Grab - Part TWO

.

.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYBDsGLNfNw

.

You can be certain that when Uncle Sam finally decides he’s ready to completely disarm all of the American citizens, whoever is in control of the Supreme Court at that time – be they Democrat or Republican judges – they will somehow “magically” find that disarming We The People is a Constitutionally valid concept. A few judges will likely voice dissenting viewpoints, only to keep up the pretense that both political parties really hate and oppose each other’s ideas.

.

That is, of course, unless we are disarmed not by a Supreme Court decision but by presidential Executive Order and a FEMA-controlled declaration of martial law.

Dear FERRET-FACED FASCIST FRIENDS

(also known as McDoggs & McDoggettes) ~

.

Everybody in America knows that the hottest topic burning today is Second Amendment gun rights versus gun control.

.

Anyone wanna guess which side of this argument I am gonna support?

.

Coming soon (read: “coming this weekend”) to this blog will be my view of this crucial, divisive, and crucially divisive topic which is both crucial and divisive . . . and topical.

.

As you’ve come to expect from me, I will be framing the subject in a slightly unorthodox way, but my “different” approach to the subject might very well have you thinking a little ‘outside-of-the-box’ you ordinarily do your thinking in. (Seriously, wasn’t it awfully cramped 'n' claustrophobic in there?)

.

So, be sure to check in here again at Ferret-Faced Fascist Friends this Saturday or Sunday for something completely different. And don’t forget to bring your George Mason shot glass and 150,000 rounds of ammunition. But, shhh!... It's Libewal Season, and we be hunting Libewals, so be vewy, vewy quiet!

VIXEN VIX AND HIS ATHEISTDICK COMRADES COULDN’T KEEP CHRISTMAS FROM COMING

.

.

Have you ever heard of the supercalifragilisticexpialidociously talented songwriting team ‘The Sherman Brothers’ – Robert and Richard? These members of the Songwriters Hall Of Fame did a lot of songwriting for Walt in the classic Disney era. Yes, they composed ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’, as well as ‘A Spoonful Of Sugar’ and the Oscar-winning ‘Chim Chim Cher-ee’. Also ‘Magic Journeys’ (my ultimate “Goldenshadow” song) along with ‘Makin' Memories’, ‘Winnie the Pooh’, and ‘The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers’. And if you’re still not convinced that these blokes, the Sherman Brothers, could write a memorable tune displaying genuine wordsmithing talent, give a listen someday to ‘The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room’ – the soundtrack for the Disneyland ride of the same name. Yes, these bros were very clever!

.

Well, a little-known song written by The Sherman Brothers, probably in the 1950s or early ‘60s, is ‘Christmas In Los Angeles’. One verse goes like this:

.

It’s sunny Christmas in Los Angeles

Olvera Street, MacArthur Park, The Palisades

Get dressed up in their merry Christmas masquerade

But no one’s ringing sleigh bells from a sleigh

.

Christmas in Los Angeles

.

.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHFaK6q8obg

.

In making reference to The Palisades’ masquerade (Pacific Palisades Park in the city of Santa Monica, California), what The Sherman Brothers were alluding to was the 14 life-sized Nativity Scenes showing the early life of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, which had already become a very unique Christmas tradition in that Western-most city in the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area. 

.

This past Christmas brought us the story about how a sniveling, atheistic jackass named Damon Vix (who lives in Burbank, NOT Santa Monica), with the help of some atheistdick comrades and the piece-o’-crap District Court judge Audrey B. Collins in California, managed to get the Santa Monica Nativity Scenes ousted from their traditional setting in Palisades Park (since 1953) on the ‘bullshivik’ charge that they violated the utterly nonexistent ‘Separation Of Church And State’ principle.

.
Damon Vix - as I pointed out in a previous ‘Ferret-Faced Fascist Friends’ blog bit titled You’re A Mean One, “Atheist” – is just another pseudo-atheist who doesn’t give one damn about the rights of the majority or Constitutional integrity. “Damien” Vix is nothing more than a cry-baby jackass who wants to ‘reign’ on everyone else’s parade. And most self-proclaimed atheists are just like him.
.
Vix and his Dix even made national news in their (predictable) victory against the Santa Monica Nativity Scenes – a tradition I grew up with and still make sizeable yearly monetary donations to.

.

A full-page story about the controversy even made the 11/20/2012 St. Croix Avis newspaper in the Virgin Islands. A friend of mine sent me the news clipping which included this: “So many people don’t understand atheists,” [Vix] said. “If you read the signs we put up, one said ‘Love is all around you.’ That’s really a better understanding of who most atheists are.”

.

BULLSHIT!

.

With the newspaper clipping my friend included a humorous note which read: “Poor misunderstood atheist . . . he looks like a guy surrounded in love now, doesn’t he?”

.

Actually, what Vix looks like to me is a homosexual (not that there’s anything wrong with that). Vix works in the movie industry, and so did I for seven years. Gays have pretty much overrun ‘The Industry’, and after awhile you learn to ‘recognize the gayness’ immediately in many of them. I could be wrong, but to my well-trained ‘Hollyweird Eyes’, Vix has “West Hollywood Gay” written all over him, even if he does live in Burbank – over 26 miles from Santa Monica’s offensive Nativity Scenes!

.

Here’s the newspaper photograph my friend was referring to:

.

.

Vixen Vix surrounded by love.

.

.

Myths, I don’t know about, but I definitely see an Asshole on the far left.

.
These devil-dog pseudo-atheists managed to get the Nativity Scenes moved to private property, despite the fact that prior to their official protests, the Scenes did not cost the city (taxpayers) any money at all, because they were entirely funded by private donations (like mine) and the vast majority of Santa Monica residents really liked the Nativity Scene tradition in Palisades Park.

.

For the record, I don’t have a problem with a person deciding - after objectively examining the evidence in detail - that they don’t believe in our Creator and our Savior. (Although the truth is that genuine, objective, in-depth examination will always lead a person to God and His Son.) What I DO object to is when pseudo-atheists lie and use any underhanded means available to spoil things for us believers. And as I wrote in You’re A Mean One, “Atheist”, the very few “real” atheists go quietly about their unbelief, never bothering to make it known to us believers unless truly necessary. It is only the phony atheists who make a big show of their unbelief and attempt to ruin things for God’s people.
.
Below are some snippets that I copied and pasted from various websites which explain the background and purpose of the Santa Monica Nativity Scenes as well as the recent controversy about them:

.

.

The annual Santa Monica Nativity Scenes display is a community tradition dating from 1953 that celebrates the true meaning of Christmas. From the second Sunday in December through the end of the year in beautiful Palisades Park, booths with life-size figures depict events surrounding the birth of Christ.

.

Pedestrians and motorists can watch God’s love for man unfold in the Christmas story along Ocean Avenue.

.

Churches, businesses and individuals pay for the event with voluntary contributions. The nonprofit Santa Monica Nativity Scenes Committee organizes the display.

.

The 13 churches and Santa Monica Police Officers Association, which make up the committee, and their representatives invite you to visit the Nativity Scenes in person and through this Web site. We hope that the display will lift your hearts as it proclaims the start of "the greatest story ever told," God’s redeeming love through the coming of Jesus Christ.

ATTORNEYS FOR SANTA MONICA NATIVITY SCENES GROUP TO URGE CITY COUNCIL TO PRESERVE CHRISTMAS NATIVITY SCENE TRADITION

.

WHO:  William J. Becker, Jr. (The Becker Law Firm)

WHAT:  Santa Monica City Council meeting

WHEN:  Tuesday, June 12, 2012, beginning at 6:30 p.m. PDT

WHERE:  Santa Monica City Hall, 1685 Main Street, Santa Monica, California 90401

.

LOS ANGELES — Attorneys for organizers of the Santa Monica Nativity Scenes will ask the City Council on Tuesday to reject a staff proposal banning the nearly 60-year-old Christmas tradition and all other displays from Palisades Park. The Council will hear public comments and act on the matter at a meeting scheduled for Tuesday, June 12.
.

Last year, the city instituted a controversial lottery system.  That system led to disputes over the fairness of the new rules when lottery-winning atheist groups displayed signs and banners attacking Christian beliefs and left a full block within the park empty.

.

NATIVITY SCENES TO OPEN DECEMBER 9 IN NEW LOCATION
.

The Santa Monica Nativity Scenes will open Sunday, December 9, at a new location in the 2700 block of Ocean Park Boulevard between Clover Park and 28th Street. [*Incidentally, the new location - on private property – is very close to the 1700 block area of Ocean Park Boulevard where I grew up.]

.

The community Christmas tradition, dating from 1953, will return to its full strength with 14 scenes with life-size figures depicting events surrounding Christ’s birth.
.
“We are deeply grateful to the Watt Companies for donating display space that will allow all of Santa Monica’s distinctive Christmas Story to continue spreading the message of joy, hope, and peace found in the Christ child’s birth to residents and visitors,” said Nativity Scenes Committee Chairman Hunter Jameson.  He invited the public to the Opening Ceremony at 3 p.m. December 9 in Clover Park next to the display for Christmas carols and recital of the Christmas story. … The lighted Scenes will be on display until the first week in January.
.

LEGAL UPDATE: After a small group of atheists stirred up controversy last year over the Scenes, the Santa Monica City Council banned the display from its historic home of Palisades Park, provoking a federal lawsuit by the Nativity Scenes Committee against the city for violating free speech and free exercise of religion.  A District Court judge’s November 29 dismissal of the lawsuit will be appealed to Circuit Court. Details on the case are available at the website of our legal counsel, William J. Becker, Jr., www.freedomXlaw.com. Our sincere thanks to him for volunteering his time and to past partners Liberty Counsel and the Pacific Justice Institute for paying court costs.

.

CHRISTMAS CELEBRATIONS IN PALISADES PARK: Jameson encouraged people to participate in Christmas observances sponsored by other groups in Palisades Park this year. The Christian Defense Coalition is sponsoring a Living Nativity from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, December 8, at the park.  People are invited to dress as shepherds or townspeople and join in.  Also, a friend of the Committee has organized Christmas celebrations at the [Santa Monica] Pier (southern) end of Palisades Park starting at 7 o’clock each night through December 23. Choir performances, caroling, skits, and hot drinks are among the features planned.

.

DONATIONS: Thank you if you would be able to make a financial contribution to meet expenses of putting up and taking down the scenes and for storage, insurance, advertising. Donations are not tax deductible.

The full 14-booth Nativity Scenes were displayed in public in 2012, so in a sense . . .
.

Damon Vix and his “atheist” organizations hadn't stopped Christmas from coming. IT CAME!

Somehow or other, it came just the same.

In December, I received a card with a nice note from Liz, a longtime Santa Monica friend of mine. She wrote: Wow! I just saw your name on the list of Sponsors for the Santa Monica Nativity Scenes. They are actually new and improved in the sense of being upgraded: new backgrounds, new mannequins, new outfits. But, of course, it’s the same Christmas story. Santa Monica needs more folks like you! Thanks a million.

.

Nevertheless, nothing changes the fact that the Nativity Scenes, for the first time since the 1953 beginning of this unique tradition, were displayed in a location other than on the special, traditional Pacific Palisades Park bluffs site that overlook the ocean and the pier.

To gain a greater grasp of why it’s preposterous to ban references to God and Christ from the public sector and why all Christian symbols and beliefs should NOT be shoehorned into strictly private property, I recommend you click on the title below and read the truly excellent article by Robert Knight:

HAPPY 'MARGARITA DAY' - 2013

It's January 1st! You know what day that is, right?

That's right, it's . . .

.

"MARGARITA DAY!"

.

.

The Ultimate Margarita.

El Coyote Mexican Restaurant

7312 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA.

.

Margarita Day:

“A Tradition Since 1986, Except For 1994.”

.
And (sung to the tune of ‘Howdy Doody Time’) our theme song goes like this:

.

It’s Margarita Day! - It’s Margarita Day!
Hooray! - Hooray! – Hooray!
For Margarita Day!
.

.

“All the salty Margaritas in Los Angeles, I’m gonna drink ‘em up.” 

From ‘Desperados Under The Eaves’ by Warren Zevon

.

Well, 2012 is in the books, and mostly it was . . . 

shit crap SHIT!

.

Not since “Margarita Day, 1987” have I been this ecstatic to see a year in my rear-view mirror. “DIE, 2012, DIE!”

.

We didn’t get exterminated on December 21, 2012 (unfortunately), which means we must endure another year. Bring on Bad Luck ’13 - “I’m ready for ya!”

.

Well, as the Hair Of The Dog often told me: "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing to the point of a hangover!"

.

Words of wisdom to live (and party) by. 

.

With that in mind, I’m gonna suggest you start 2013 out right: Have a Margarita. Heck, have TWO Margaritas. Oh, what the hell! Have THREE Margaritas and make it a menage a trois plus one! Sex with three 80-proof women named ‘Margarita’ – what could possibly be hotter (and cooler) than that?!

Look, if you didn’t ‘Make A Wish For Tiny Tim on Christmas Day’ (and I know you didn’t), the least you can do is have a Margarita on ‘Margarita Day’.

.

I suggest all these great, new, imaginative holiday traditions to you people and none of y’all pick up the ball and run with it! Ya know, not until after I’m dead and cremated are ya gonna realize that a “creative genius" damned drunk was in your midst!

I wish a HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of my friends, and especially to my ‘Magnificent Seven’ (u know who u b).
