DOMA In Action - what a proud day for America

Well qualifications on paper is a different beast than actually knowing what someone is capable of.

well, i've explained it to you twice and i don't think you are quite so dense as to have missed it both times. it has become quite obvious that you are simply incapable of grasping the concept that, no matter how compassionate the intent may appear to be, the welfare state is based on government sanctioned theft.

I asked for proof. Specific documented examples. You keep giving me generalizations and hypotheticals. I'm also ignoring your constant personal attacks. It's just sad.

there is nothing hypothetical about it. while you limit your rants to individual instances, the abusive nature of the welfare state is a matter of everyday life for millions. is a man's property not his own? is that property not siphoned from one economic class to another through the violent powers of the state? that it is considered an acceptable abuse does not make it right. that it has been approved by authority, just as slavery and the burning of witches once were, does not mean that it within the proper duties of the state.

I'm also ignoring your constant personal attacks.

if you think these are personal attacks, you have thin skin indeed. i merely state the obvious. your every post is filled with the statist ideology you embrace and that blinds you to the truth that is all around you. that you continue to be obtuse is likewise a statement of the obvious. you rail against one set of laws and glorify another, based solely on your own opinion of what is right and what is wrong, and fail to recognize that both are an interference in the rights of the individual to the same extent.

yep, lunacy at it's best.

you compare ensuring that quality of life for EVERYBODY is decent, so slavery... lol

In what way did Affirmative Action infringe on basic human or constitutional rights?

Really?????? I believe you are being obtuse. There were a group of firefighters from Connecticut who were denied promotions simply because they were white. They took their fight to the Supreme Court and won!
