IT'S INSANITY - NO - IT'S SOCIALISM!

Government wants access to your property in the worst way. They're accomplishing this through your local elected officials. City Councils and County Commissioners are manipulated and coerced into implementing insane and intrusive federal and state mandates. Some of them are decent people and don't realize they are enslaving and betraying themselves and their constituents because they're ignorant of the mandate's true intent.
But the public servants who do know what they're doing use fear, coercion, lies and anything else that works to implement their agendas. "It’s for the children." "It's for the elderly." "It's for the handicapped." "It's for the appearance." And of course "It's for our own good and safety" we're told.
Recently “The Asheville Tribune” in N.C. ran a story, titled: “Local Governments can inspect inside your private home” without a search warrant and the property owner must comply, or else. Please take the time to read this story thoroughly to see what we are all up against.
The purpose of this intrusion is to find additional ways to fill their coffers at the expense of breaking property owners financially through finding many petty property code/maintenance violations. The fine for a violation is $50 per day until the violation is fixed. The elderly on fixed incomes could be fined out of their homes. While on your property they check the outside and can cite you for numerous violations you never, ever dreamt of in your scariest nightmares. Fence repairs, cracked glass, tall grass, and ripped awnings are a few simple ones. Their list is endless. The benefactors are the courts and attorneys who will charge, fine and litigate the violators that refuse or can’t afford to comply. Those who comply do so at the risk of depleting their savings. We’re told it’s for maintenance code violations. If you believe that, I’ll sell you prime real estate on planet Zimo. It’s only a matter of time before your county will unconstitutionally violate your privacy. Is the Grants Pass, Oregon City Council (my home town) going to implement this insane, intrusive law? You bet! Just as fast as they can.
As always, logic and reason are used to fool the people in order to accomplish their unconstitutional, diabolical schemes. All at the taxpayer’s expense. In other words we pay for our own enslavement. Most politically correct pastors I’ve talked to support this intrusion. They believe and preach that we must obey government authority and, if one has nothing to hide then he/she has nothing to worry about. Oh, really? Things can be planted on your property then confiscated and used as evidence to jail you. It happens every day. A good example is the recent NY Post story of how cops (Newark's Finest) got caught planting a gun in a suspect’s car, then seized it.
History teaches us that once they get their foot inside your door, it’s only a matter of time before the whole body follows. The prime motivation for this intrusion is not safety or appearance, it’s the money and power, pure and simple, all being done at your local level. Once they succeed in trashing all of your constitutionally protected property rights, morals, individualism, and the family, Bingo! It’s Socialism, baby. The sad part is we allow it by not standing up to them.
Tom DeWeese wrote in his recent article titled “In the Dark in Loudoun” that in Loudoun County, VA., a bunch of activists are pushing for a bill to curb ‘Light Pollution’. Just imagine; they want to tell you how bright your bulb can be or how many Christmas lights you can have on, around your home, at Christmas time.
Be forewarned. The next things on the radical activist’s agenda, after the gun and cigarette manufacturers, are the liquor, snack, alternate health care products and fast food industry. This of course will create huge unemployment, as those industries will have to lay off or shut down due the enormous cost of litigation. Recently BBC ran a story (Fat Americans Sue Fast Food Giants) about a bunch of fat people that are suing fast food giants, blaming them for their obesity. Did the fast food restaurants force them to shove the food into their mouths? Of course not. In other words, it’s not their fault for being fat; it’s the restaurant’s sandwich's fault.
America is becoming a no fault society. It's not my fault. Well, if it's not my fault, then whose fault is it? It's the guns, it's the genes, it's the greasy hamburgers, you name it. So called 'experts' tell us there is no such thing as right or wrong, only conditioned responses like animals. I do not believe 'experts' who insinuates that I was made in the image of any animal who has no conscience. I'm a human being made in the image of God, with a conscience that knows the difference between right and wrong. How about you? Are you a Pavlov dog or human resource for the state?
