Lives Matter
YES, THEY DO!
Black Lives, White Lives, Latino Lives, Asian Lives, Police Lives, Fireman Lives, Military Service Lives, Medical Worker Lives,
Preborn Baby Lives, Boys' Lives, Girls' Lives, Women's Lives, Men's Lives.
All made in the image of God, and each is Precious.
In the United States of America our forefathers had the insight to codify that fact into the very beginning of the United States.
The second paragraph of the United States Declaration of Independence states [1]:
"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"
Declaration of Independence of the United States of America, July 4, 1776
At the time that was a radical idea.
The world was ruled by Socialist Autocracies - the United States made a radical departure from what was then the "normal" way of doing things.
The founders of the United States made another radical departure as well.
While guaranteeing religious freedom, it was careful to not establish a State religion.
But while not endorsing any religion, the foundation of the Nation's Values were Judeo-Christian values.
These values are engrained in the American culture, resulting in the most respected Nation on Earth for its
value of every life of every person of every background.
Well, almost.
We have four stains on our record:
- Unbelievably, despite the words "all men are created equal", the Nation's founders were faced with a dilemma.
Democrat-led Southern states would not agree to join the Union if they were not permitted to retain slaves - despite the "equal" language.
A compromise was made in order to form the Union [2].
Black persons were devalued as reflected by Democratic party operative Roger Taney who became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court,
where he wrote in his majority opinion of the Dred Scott [13] decision, stating that Blacks were
“beings of an inferior order” [8].
This ruling remained in effect until the conclusion of the Civil War and passage of the 13th amendment
to the Constitution, ending slavery [9]
and the 14th amendment, giving Citizenship to Blacks [10].
- Following Republican President Abraham Lincoln's leadership in winning the freeing of slaves in the Civil War, Democrat-led Southern states
initiated Jim Crow segregationist laws that persisted for nearly 100 years into the 1970s [3].
Black persons were again devalued for almost another 100 years until passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act [14],
1965 Voting Rights Act [15], and a few remaining legal cases.
- Unbelievably, despite the words "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness", Liberal Democrat activists, being unable to
win proper Constitutional Legislative approval for aborting innocent babies, turned to placing activist judges on the Supreme Court
who were willing to overlook the Nation's founding documents and endorse the Liberal Democrat activist political agenda.
This stain has now remained on our record for nearly 50 years.
Preborn Babies remain devalued today, and insultingly President Biden demands that taxpayers fund abortions.
It's time to overturn the Liberal Democrat activist agenda and return to our Founding
values [4], [5], [6], [7], [12], [17].
- Unbelievably, when the Liberal Left activists failed to get LGBT initiatives passed through proper Constitutional Legislative channels, they enlisted
a Liberal Left-stacked Supreme Court to bastardize the millennia-old worldwide definition of "Marriage" [16], and to declare LGBT a "right".
It's time to overturn the Liberal Democrat activist agenda, return Marriage to its long-standing definition, and recognize
LGBT as a Religion based on a set of Beliefs, not a Right [11].
If somebody tries to tell you different...
