Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…
As Christians and Jews, following the example of the faith of Abraham, we are called to be a blessing to the world (cf. Gen. 12:2 ff.). This is the common task awaiting us. It is therefore necessary for us, Christians and Jews, to be first a blessing to one another (L'Osservatore Romano, August 17, 1993).~John Paul II
I am conscious of having been ruled by buffoons, taught by idiots, preached at by hypcrites, preyed upon by charlatans in the guise of advertisers and other professional persuaders, as well as by verbose demagogues and ideologues of many opinions, all false. ~Malcolm Muggeridge
Group think? Lou said, "not on my watch." ~Lu Zhengxiang, 陸徵祥
You cannot defend our civilization by expending blood and treasure in an effort to defend an alien barbarism. Either we relearn this lesson to our cost or we are decadent and shall be destroyed.~Ghost of a Flea
So much for his spiel about 'democracy' and 'transparency of governing'.
What kind of people defends murder?

In every war, the first casualty is truth. In a civil war, the truth is assassinated twice, once by each camp.

Working in America

h/t National Right To Work Committee:
"You guys slash my tires, stab me in the neck, try to beat me up," the construction company official explained to the union organizer.
Given all that, he asked, why should the company hire such aggressive union militants? 
 
"The positives are that the negatives you are complaining about would go away," the union operative reportedly replied.

According to the Buffalo News, the "negatives" include hot coffee thrown at independent-minded workers, sand dumped into the engines of company vehicles, and the wife of a company representative threatened with sexual assault.
And the union toughs just might get away with it.
You see, ever since the Supreme Court's infamous 1973 Enmons decision, union bosses have been granted immunity from federal prosecution for acts of violence and vandalism they orchestrate in the so-called "pursuit of legitimate union objectives."

...The loophole in federal law ensures that union officials who may have orchestrated and encouraged the union violence may never be brought to justice, especially where they can intimidate and use political connections to stop local or state prosecutions.

That's why the Freedom from Union Violence Act (FUVA) is so vital.
