Protesting injustice is simply taking a stand. Protesting things that don't exist is disruption for the point of disruption.

Case in point: MLK, Jr leading protest marches for civil rights was taking a stand. BLM blocking highways and burning cities is disruption.

(commented on May 25th, 2016 @ 11:04 am)
Yes it would. Our parents' message got thru to us. Many think protesting is the Christian thing to do. Protesting is not biblical.

Obama has set the dial for his followers. The violence that has erupted at Trump rallies is nothing compared to the violence that will be seen if Trump wins. At least short term.

Thanks for your great article and standing up for what's right and just! I have quoted your article on my blog today "Why It's Time to Flush Bruce Springsteen Down The Collective Toilet". cherylkicksass.blogspot.com

This makes so much sense. We would save a ton of money and spend it only when absolutely necessary. I bet someone, somewhere could calculate how much this would save the country.

I'm not sure that touch typing class is needed. My 12 year old can type 60 words + 12 emojis per minute without any training.

We bring in MBAs at work and no one could possibly read their writing...but no one does because they never have to submit hand-written work. The good thing is that they can read their own hand-written words when they take notes. Most of them don't use paper anyway, as they type on their laptops or tablets.

Smartfella, what classes exist now that didn't exist at Jesuit High School back in the day? When a new class is needed, does the school have to drop a class to make room? I'm thinking yes, unless they extend the school day or get rid of summer vacation. Just a thought!

This is exactly why young people should have children sooner. Before you call me crazy, consider that with 2-3 kids in the back seat, there is no energy or attention to use for texting. Besides, young parents have to keep one hand free to wipe noses and apply a bit of discipline (both are allowed under most states driving laws). Clearly we need a campaign to encourage teen pregnancy, "Kids are the Kure for Kareless Driving!!"

Hood, when you resigned from the BCGOP Executive Committee, according to Article 5.6.a, you forfeited all rights and privileges in any way connected with that position. I didn’t make the decision, the rules mandated it. Any elected official that will lie and mislead its citizens does not deserve a seat at the table. I know you don’t care how you hurt people, but they don’t deserve the harm and defamation you cause.

(commented on January 15th, 2024 @ 11:47 pm)
I know you would rather be right, but you are wrong again. Under Artice 5.4.a. If a Member of a Committee is convicted of a felony AFTER the election to such Committee organized under this Plan, the member will be removed without the need for any further action immediately effective upon such conviction. I think this is a very low attack on a lady that advocates everyday for the people and kids in her community. Shame on you for potentially harming her future.

(commented on January 15th, 2024 @ 11:33 pm)
As usual, you are a day late and a dollar short. You already know that I am not the Chair of the BCGOP. It was automatic resignation when a fellow Republican filed to run against me according to Article 6 Paragraph H in the BCGOP Plan of organization. You knew this since you used to be a member. Under Article 6.6, states, Any current or former officer or Member of a Precinct Committee or County Executive Committee who, for any reason, is removed or resigned from said position shall forfeit all rights and privileges in anyway connected with that position. When you attended a meeting you were given the floor to speak. Remember, you refused to let Representative Kidwell and myself to speak at your meeting. These are verifiable facts. You have reviewed the Plan of Organization for the past twenty some years. Please be truthful.

I don't think it was a cruel thing to do to give away your last $5 MPC.

Unless my memory is failing me, in 1965 we did not have MPC.
We used the Vietnamese Piaster.
I just looked up images of the Piaster to include in this comment & noticed it is spelled "Piastre" on the bills themselves.
You learn something new day.
Or should that be every 55 years?
Oops, it looks like I can't attach pictures to comments.
Take my word for it.

Great read!

All these years later I found this article again. Interesting write-up. Good writing.

I just sent a message to Diane, thanking her for this excellent article. I wish every citizen would read this and put it into the public discourse. And thanks to you, Stan, for making her excellent blogs so available. This is the kind of election reform we need, that the false kind sent by the Progressives/Liberals.

(commented on April 28th, 2021 @ 10:25 am)
As usual, a very good analysis of an issue that seems to have gone by the wayside with our current progressive government. I commend Diane for her insightful work, which needs to be read by every North Carolinian. And, thank you, BCN, for publishing it

That North and South divide seems so inconsequential today, doesn't it? But it was real!

In that you only get 20 minutes a week for the steep price of $279/mo, I don't think you would be in any danger of being bored or running out of things to do!!

(commented on August 6th, 2017 @ 1:32 pm)
Thanks, Stan. I'm having loads of fun. I even have a book signing scheduled in October in St. Simons for my new book! Since this one is written by the dog, Island Dog is hosting the event.

As usual, spot-on, Stan. I guess Comey just could not live up to his reputation. Sad day for America.

(commented on October 5th, 2015 @ 8:45 am)
You are "spot on" in your assessment of Obama. He has only one thing in his sights. His LEGACY. He feels he is above the law, because he's been given a pass at every turn. He never listens to the American citizen, and has completely disregarded the Constitution.

Hey Jude
Out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old.
Can you feel me?

Hey Jude
Standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles.
Can you feel me?

Hey Jude
Don't help them to bury the light.
Don't give in without a fight.

Hey Jude
Out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone.
Would you touch me?

Hey Jude
With your ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out.
Would you touch me?

Hey Jude
Would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high as you can see.
No matter how he tried he could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.

Hey Jude
Out there on the road,
Always doing what you're told.
Can you help me?

Hey Jude
Out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall.
Can you help me?

Hey Jude
Don't tell me there's no hope at all.
Together we stand,
Divided we fall.

I cannot belive that one of our own has done turn to the dark side. Thom Tillis is now trying to make everyone potheads!!11!1 He has done been infected by the LIBERAL media!!!11 This is a clear example of the liberal agenda safe space needing special snowflakes. Mark my words, five years from now everyone in america will be rolling around in their safe space bubbles high on that marijuna if america doesnt wake up! OF Course, Supreme LEADER Donald J Trump, the great leader, will have done everything, but the evil liberal mainstream democrat communist socialisst snowflake established would have done everything in their power to discredit his greatness.

It's time we as the true everyday american take a stand against the liberal pot head communist vegan crocs-wearing snowflake establishment!!11!!111!

I think there is a decent argument to be made that nonfactual 'news' stories swayed the election, and both sides were taking part in this propaganda method (as for whom was worse, you draw your own conclusions.) I do not think that Facebook and Google are talking about the articles written by puppet journalists for the Clinton Foundation, the manufactured crises, or general misinformation which happens to help reinforce their political stances. That is what I find unsettling. Another thing I find unsettling is that people are getting news from memes, but that's another tragedy.

The United States nearing 20 trillion dollars in debt, and the federal government continues to subsidize hot tubs and safe spaces.

Bobby Tony,
I can't remember if I ever posted this, but I remember writing once that my original plan was for my writing to particularly focus on the first amendment. Then I realized that by government (and partially citizen) infringement on other rights, the first amendment will crumble along with the others. Would you speak against government corruption if the eye of Big Brother were constantly staring down at you? In the wake of various power grabs (beaufortcountynow.com), I broadened it significantly because I didn't feel it was being discussed enough (yes, including the "conservative media.")

Rod this is a fantastic article and it seems you have hit the nerves of some liberals on here because they cannot handle the truth. If some of you on here think he is so stupid then you should call his radio show The Rod Eccles Show which airs Mon-Fri 7-9 PM EST and the number to call is 603-835-3224. He would love to speak with you.

Sir I enjoyed you comments on the Fairtax, very thoughtful ones. I had not thought of the Fairtax in relation to the ACM and yes the ACM tax would be affected by the amendments of the Tax Code eliminating the IRS and its tax collection duties. So even the ACM ta would still exist, there would not be any mechanism to gather information and collect it. Your fears of having both an Income tax or Vat tax plus the Fairtax are reasonable but not likely because first because the law implementing the Income tax and the IRS is repealed by the Fairtax and once we go even one year without the income tax I cannot imagine any one wanting it back, but if the companion bill repealing the XV1 Amendment is not passed in seven years then the Fairtax is automatically repealed.
