Activists have rights -- what DO you know

We all have rights by dint of being born. But government regards these as privileges that exist at politicians' whim. A win like this is good to see:

Court Rules Antiwar Activists Can Sue Government Spies

"A federal appeals court involving antiwar activists," it says, "who were secretly infiltrated by US military spies has ruled in favor of the activists, marking the first time a court has endorsed the people’s ability to sue the military for violating their First and Fourth Amendment rights." Let's hope it "takes" and that this is not just another court giving us, the people,* a consolation prize to stomp to pieces in the final judgment on a case.

They like to do that. Were any of you there for one or more of Dr. John Cobin's divorce proceedings? They gave him a concession here and there and one judge even told him he was doing a good job of defending himself pro se. But in the end, the opposition's lawyers got the nod.

Notable in this article is the mention of a "fusion center". These are the disturbingly Orwellian places where all government bodies are being blended into one -- or to put it another way, checks and balances are ground up and used for mulch outside. The infiltrator in this case was sent out from one of them and the anti-war stalwarts have decided to call him on it. That is great -- let's hope that in addition to studying up on the evils of the welfare-warfare state, they've been boning up on their rights and how to defend them in court, even if they hire a lawyer.

Fusion centers should scare anybody. You know, like "multi-jurisdictional task forces", in other words shock troops which are given carte blanche to invade any home, ruin any life in the supposed name of fighting "terror".

The 9/1/12 rally in Greenville

Please note correct area code here. It was misprinted in a newspaper ad.

Your contributions are solicited for more radio advertising!

please forward tweet, print and distribute!

YOU ARE INVITED

to a

Demonstration

Against

Illegal Immigration

Saturday, Sept. 1, 2012 – 1:00 PM rain or shine

Federal Building

Church and Washington Streets, Greenville, SC

 

We are the same people that held the largest pro-borders rally in modern history. It was in front of Senator Lindsey Graham’s office in Greenville in 2006 in protest of the McCain/Kennedy amnesty bill.

We are now organizing a sidewalk demonstration at the same busy intersection (the Greenville Federal Building) for Sept. 1 in opposition to Obama’s refusal to enforce the current immigration laws of the United States. He has instructed Federal immigration agents to violate the law by enforcing the DREAM Act, which failed to pass both houses of Congress. It is not the law.

Come and learn the simple but effective things you can do to help. Grab a pile of copies of The Real News for your family, friends and neighbors. Bring friends and family – they are all affected by these problems. This is our opportunity to gain some much-needed anti-Obama publicity only two days before the Democrat National Convention in Charlotte in order to show that Barack is only pursuing his narrow left-wing agenda. It's up to you to make this rally a success. It's the last chance you will have to publicly make a difference before the election.

Free OBAMA BIN LYIN' bumper stickers will be available for all comers. Bring hand-painted poster board signs.

Attendance is free! Print newspaper sub is $10

Membership is just $25 (including print newspaper subscription

COME TO COLUMBIA FEBRUARY 17: Stand for heritage and historical truth

“The city is built entirely of wood and is in the most excellent condition to burn. The space on fire by midnight had housed thirty-five thousand people. The flames rolled and heaved like waves of the ocean. The scene is splendid, magnificently grand; the scene of pillaging, the suffering and terror of the citizens and of our frantic and drunken soldiers.”
~ Thomas Ward Osborn, The Fiery Trail: A Union Officer's Account of Sherman's Last Campaigns

CALLING ALL SOUTHERN PATRIOTS

Come to the S.C. Capitol Feb. 17!
Help send a message to the politicians, media and citizens
that WE REMEMBER -- and they need to.

WHAT: a Rally in remembrance of the Union’s savage burning of Columbia and press conference on the holocaust of the South a century and a half ago.
WHERE: north side of the South Carolina State House
Gervais and Main Streets, Columbia, S.C.
WHEN: 12 noon, Friday, Feb. 17, 2012: THE 147th anniversary of the crime
We will proceed from the George Washington statue into the rotunda. All interested will meet for 10:30 AM dutch treat breakfast at the IHOP just west of the state house (1031 Assembly St.)
 
The need is still crucial to stand for the suppressed truth of Southern history and refute the lies and defamation of the leftist mass media, politicians and agitators. You are invited to come help show them that South Carolina remembers the outrages against her – that she may forgive but will never forget them!
Our informational campaigns bring results. Last year at this time we sought to help Gov. Nikki Haley see the ugly reality of Lincoln, Sherman and their war of “liberation”. Possibly as a result, Gov. Haley later publicly announced that she doesn't plan to revisit the Confederate flag “compromise”. The Real News, a professional print newspaper, chronicles our wins. Free copy on request.
The world urgently needs to know the truth about the so-called civil war and the brutality its socialist impetus brought upon our ancestors. Schools, media, and all other institutions perpetuate lies and myths about the war, Lincoln et al. – even more than usual now during this sesquicentennial period. Will you come and briefly take a stand with us? We believe that freedom is fun, and look forward to meeting you! Bring Confederate flags, picket signs etc., or simply stand there with us.

At last.... Nikki Haley interview shows her (?) true positions re Flag and South

.

VITALLY IMPORTANT NOTICE:

PLEASE SEE FIRST THE INVITATION

TO THIS ORGANIZATION'S

FEBRUARY 17 RALLY IN COLUMBIA --

SECOND POST DOWN ON THIS PAGE

__________________________

Out of the blue (Thanks, Dixie!) comes this valuable video. The new Governor is interviewed by two voices I'm sure I recognize as old allies in the Confederate Flag cause... and they do an excellent job of politely but effectively drawing Ms Haley out on the issue of all issues in the culture war, the Confederate Flag in front of the most visible side of the S.C. state house.
There's bad news and good news. Ms Haley all but admits to holding the purely PC understanding of the War Between The States (i.e. that in the face of all logic and facts to the contrary, the "Civil War" was needed because everybody is entitled to "equality" and "freedom"), but she soon sees the advantage in declaring (to this particular audience at least) that the Flag "compromise" stands as a done deal and she will take no initiative in changing it. That, of course, could mean that either she won't listen to any idiotic prattle about further sellouts or that she's wide open for (as noted below) the "right" kind of "debate" on it.
But lo and behold, she does mean to get in touch with the the NAACP...... to tell them they need to be more open-minded. If she really cares about the American way of life, one wonders, why doesn't she simply wait for them to call and tell them she'll be happy to talk to them as soon as their they and their comrades apologize for hiding the statue of George Washington at the big black supremacist rally a few weeks ago?
We must assume Ms. Haley is an unfortunate victim of PC brainwashing... and hope that her LIBERALISM is not carved in stone. The comments added to the video typically range from moronic and pigheaded to brilliant and tangy. One of them makes the interesting observation that "Haley’s main opponent, Congressman Gresham Barrett, has an excellent A+ NumbersUSA Career ranking. Immigration damage is a serious economic problem in South Carolina, and America."
Would Barrett have been better? He wasn't perfect and angered many by supporting BushObamanoid "stimulus" anti-economics last year, but he was a reliable pro-Flag S.C. legislator.
And being willing to stand up for the Flag outweighs a great many other considerations in this writer's 'umble but studied opinion.

George Washington Boxed Up and hidden by NAACP for MLK Event

South Carolina NAACP Shields Audience From…George Washington?

The South Carolina NAACP honored Martin Luther King Jr. Day Monday while simultaneously dishonoring the nation’s first president.

An organized rally — dubbed “King Day at the Dome” — protested the Confederate battle flag on display at the State House in Columbia and featured speakers and guests who called on government leaders to address “racial disparities” in education, health care, community development, criminal justice, employment and economic development in the state. But as a number of local and national speakers stepped forward to speak from the capitol steps, a large bronze statue of George Washington was conspicuously hidden (h/t Atlas Shrugs).

A large box covered with cloth hid the father of the country from view of the rally’s guests:

Here’s the view of the stage from the audience (h/t Weasel Zippers):

Here‘s Washington’s vantage point, via TheState.com which noted, “The monument of George Washington was concealed from the crowd during the King Day at the Dome rally,” but offered no explanation:

It‘s not clear why the NAACP insisted on covering up the likeness of the nation’s first president and a spokesman for the organization was not immediately available for comment.

Update: The South Carolina NAACP has responded to a request for comment and said the only reason the statue of Washington was covered up was for aesthetic purposes. “We had created a backdrop behind the speakers,” the group spokesman told The Blaze late Tuesday afternoon, noting that someone in his organization forgot to post an NAACP placard on the backdrop.

According to the group, the statue of Washington has been covered each year for the annual rally. The spokesman said he was “at a loss for words” as to why covering President Washington would offend anyone, claiming it was “non-sensical” for people to believe it may have been politically motivated.

Major event for February: COME RALLY FOR TRUTH in Columbia

The invitation as printed for distribution:

EMERGENCY…. CALLING ALL SOUTHERN PATRIOTS

WHAT: a Rally in remembrance of the Union’s savage burning of Columbia

WHERE: north side of the South Carolina State House

Gervais and Main Streets, Columbia, S.C.

WHEN: 12 noon, Thursday, Feb. 17, 2011: THE 146^th anniversary of the crime

We will proceed from the George Washington statue into the rotunda. All interested will meet for 10:30 AM dutch treat breakfast at the IHOP just west of the state house (1031 Assembly St.)

Are you ready for the NAACP to steal our new governor? It’s a done deal unless we join to really make ourselves heard for heritage, honor and historical truth.

The NAACP rallied Jan. 17 and called for removal of the Confederate flag, i.e. the trashing of the “compromise” that was supposed to pacify them. So, what has changed? Don’t they do so every year and meet with pure frustration? Maybe. What’s changed is two words: new governor.

Have you been wondering where Nikki Haley stands regarding Southern heritage? It’s hard to say so far. This from a Jan. 17 AP article, for instance: “During last year's campaign, Gov. Nikki Haley, along with most gubernatorial candidates, said she didn't plan on revisiting the issue. There's not enough support for moving it to bring a healthy debate, she said.”

Is that a no -- or green light to prepare such “debate”? It certainly wouldn’t hurt for somebody to remind Gov. Haley that it wasn’t the NAACP or left-wing media that voted her into office.

We are not in a hurry to condemn her, but we wonder about the nods to PC in her inaugural speech such as “The horrors of slavery and discrimination need not be retold here. They too remain a part of our history and a part of the fabric of our lives.” What about the horrors of the attempted destruction of the entire South 150 years ago and the very real discrimination and bigotry it has endured ever since? Where is mention of them in today’s political discourse?

We hope to work with Gov. Haley. Your support of this effort is invited. Southern movement leaders need to get a group appointment with Ms Haley soon. Let’s do it – this event will be a perfect time to plan it. It will also be a “Keep it Flying” demonstration. The C-Flag must remain on the Soldier’s Monument because the whole South suffered the horrors of the War, not just the soldiers! The NAACP and other “liberals” must get this through their heads.

PLEASE COME. Start SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT THE RALLY TODAY. SEE YOU THERE! Bring your organizational banner and grab all the glory you want. Let’s just get it done.

“The city is built entirely of wood and is in the most excellent condition to burn. The space on fire by midnight had housed thirty-five thousand people. The flames rolled and heaved like waves of the ocean. The scene is splendid, magnificently grand; the scene of pillaging, the suffering and terror of the citizens and of our frantic and drunken soldiers.”
