100 Facts About The Moral Collapse Of America That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe

Hat Tip to InfoWars

I am beginning to believe that we are heading for Hell in a hand basket.  Just read this list.

The collection of facts and statistics that you are about to read is highly controversial.  A lot of people are going to be greatly upset by it.  Why?  Because they don’t like to be confronted with the truth about America.

Most people tend to believe that we can “fix this country” by getting the right politicians into power or by implementing certain economic or social reforms.  But the reality of the matter is that our problems go far deeper than that.  A moral collapse is eating away at the foundations of our society like cancer.  If it continues to go unchecked, it will inevitably destroy America.  Unfortunately, fixing moral decay is far more difficult than switching out political parties, because it is in the hearts of hundreds of millions of individual Americans.  And most people don’t want to hear anything about a “moral collapse”, because most people like to think that the United States is setting a “good example” for the rest of the planet.  But as you will see below, that is not the case at all.

And if we are honest with ourselves, we see the evidence of this moral collapse all around us every day.  Just consider a few of the news stories that we have seen recently…
What would cause a high school kid to take two kitchen knives and go on a stabbing rampage through his school?

What would cause a topless woman to ransack a McDonald’s in St. Petersburg, Florida?

What would cause two 18-year-old boys to beat a 30-year-old mentally-disabled man to death with a baseball bat just so they could get his XBox?

What would cause a new father to put his 6-week-old daughter in a freezer to keep her from crying?

A lot of people regard those kinds of stories as “isolated incidents”, but as you will see below, they are actually representative of a much larger trend.  As a society, we are decaying from the inside out, and we need to start facing the truth if we are ever going to get this turned around.  The following are 100 facts about the moral collapse of America that are almost too crazy to believe…

Reynolds v. United States

Now that the US Supreme Court has decided that it is ok for gays to marry, polygamists now demand the same.  But contrary to those decisions, the issue of polygamy has been decided in 1878.

Reynolds v. United States - 98 U.S. 145 (1878)

U.S. Supreme Court

ERROR TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE TERRITORY OF UTAH

Syllabus

1. Sect. 808 of the Revised Statutes, providing for impaneling grand juries and prescribing the number of which they shall consist, applies only to the Circuit and the District Courts of the United States. An indictment for bigamy under sect. 5352 may, therefore, be found in a district court of Utah, by a grand jury of fifteen persons, impaneled pursuant to the laws of that Territory.

2. A petit juror in a criminal case testified on his voire dire that he believed that he had formed an opinion, although not upon evidence produced in court, as to the guilt or innocence of the prisoner, but that he had not expressed it, and did not think that it would influence his verdict. He was thereupon challenged by the prisoner for cause. The court overruled the challenge. Held, that its action was not erroneous.

3. Where it is apparent from the record that the challenge of a petit juror, if it had been made by the United States for favor, should have been sustained, the judgment against the prisoner will not be reversed simply because the challenge was in form for cause.

4. Although the Constitution declares that, in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to be confronted with the witnesses against him, yet, if they are absent by his procurement, or when enough has been proved to cast upon him the burden of showing, and he, having full opportunity therefor, fails to show that he has not been instrumental in concealing them or in keeping them away, he is in no condition to assert that his constitutional right has been violated by allowing competent evidence of the testimony which they gave on a previous trial between the United States and him upon the same issue. Such evidence is admissible.

5. Said sect. 5352 is in all respects constitutional and valid.

6. The scope and meaning of the first article of the amendments to the Constitution discussed.

7. A party's religious belief cannot be accepted as a justification for his committing an overt act, made criminal by the law of the land. Where, therefore, the prisoner, knowing that his wife was living, married again in Utah, and, when indicted and tried therefor, set up that the church whereto he belonged enjoined upon its male members to practice polygamy, and that he, with the sanction of the recognized authorities of the church, and by a ceremony performed pursuant to its doctrines, did marry again -- held, that the court properly refused to charge the jury that he was entitled to an acquittal although they should find that he had contracted such second marriage pursuant to, and in conformity with, what he believed at the time to be a religious duty.

8. The court told the jury to "consider what are to be the consequences to the innocent victims of this delusion [the doctrine of polygamy]. As this contest goes on, they multiply, and there are pure-minded women and there are innocent children -- innocent in a sense even beyond the degree of the innocence of childhood itself. These are to be the sufferers; and as jurors fail to do their duty, and as these cases come up in the Territory of Utah, just so do these victims multiply and spread themselves over the land."

Held, that the charge was not improper.

What Kind Of Religion Would Condone This Type Of Torture?

Warning!!! Graphic Content!!!!
Not suitable for Underage Children!!!

In the West, especially the United States, passions run high when Same Sex Marriage,equal rights for Gays and Lesbians are mentioned, even if a Church allows Gays and Lesbians to become clergy. And except for a few fringe groups, nobody is suggesting to kill these men and women because they are Gay.

This isn't true in the Muslim World where the penalty for Homosexuality is death:

Iraqi Moslems have peculiarly inventive minds. They possess fertile imaginations. By combining these unique talents, they have devised a method for cleansing Iraq of homosexuals.

Not by exiling them. Not by corralling them in concentration camps. Nor by shooting them. Their solution is cheaper and effective. It provides job satisfaction and enjoyment to the enthusiastic soldiers of Allah.

They have hit the Muslem jackpot with this innovation!

The brave enforcers of law and order, Iraqi style, hunt their prey in the streets. And in cafes, barbers shops, and houses. They search for unmarried 30 to 35 year old men and for effeminate men. Pharmacists advise police about male customers who regularly buy female hormones and cosmetic creams. They entrap gay men via internet chatrooms by dating them - then...pounce!

Then the hunters macabre fun begins.

"As the murder campaign targeting Iraqi gays intensifies, a leading Arabic television network last week (as at 6 May 2009) revealed the use of a horrifying new form of lethal torture against Iraqi gay men: anti-gay Shiite death squads are SEALING THEIR ANUSES WITH A POWERFUL GLUE, THEN INDUCING DIARRHEA, WHICH LEADS TO A PAINFUL AND AGONIZING DEATH. The use of this stomach-turning new torture was first reported Iraqi boy wearing female underware by the Al Arabiya network, which is headquartered in the United Arab Emirates and was alerted to the story by a leading Iraqi feminist and human rights activist." (My emphasis)

The use of this fiendish anal torture is taking place not just in Baghdad but in smaller towns and cities in Iraq. Surgery is needed to remove the glue. The victims of this lethal barbarism are being refused treatment in hospitals because of homophobia. The terror experienced by the men must be unimaginable. They know they will die in agony. It is inhumane. (My emphasis)

Most of us experience an attack of diarrhea at least once in our lifetime. Remember the warning sign of stomach-ache or pains? Then the dash to the toilet to evacuate your bowels? More than one trip sometimes. Now imagine, if you can, those stomach pains, the rush to the toilet - but your anus is tightly sealed! Excruciating is too mild a word to describe the suffering of those helpless men.

Not content with applying Super Glue to the anuses of gay men then force-feeding them laxatives, the fearless death squads are filming their victims torture and death agonies. The videos are being distributed on mobile cellphones in Iraq. The killer/hunters are molesting gay men before torturing them. As quoted by a Baghdad homosexual man, "Life has become like hell, believe me, like hell. Whenever I go anywhere, there are checkpoints...and they want to touch me, yes, to molest me." His days must be numbered.

Before the US invasion in 2002, the world was told "horror stories" of the sadistic behavior of Saddam Hussein and his sons. We were told that this was contrary to what the Iraqi people were really like, and that they were dangerous animals that needed to be destroyed.

I am not sure that Saddam and sons were the exception to the rule. I am beginning to believe that they ARE the rule. That the whole nation is filled with the most barbaric race of people that have ever lived.

It is being reported that Iraq is decending into chaos. That the security forces the US trained to be a force for justice and democracy, are turning out to be the opposite.

The Iraqi government is investigating whether Iraqi security forces were collaborators in this week's deadly bombings in Baghdad, Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said Saturday.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs lost 32 employees, and dozens more were wounded in Wednesday's massive suicide truck bomb attack, he said at a news conference. Another truck bomb targeted the Ministry of Finance, and four other explosions went off in the capital.

At least 100 people were killed and more than 500 wounded in the six blasts. The Foreign Ministry was hardest hit by an explosion about a quarter- mile from a checkpoint outside Baghdad's restricted International Zone, or Green Zone.

The attacks, which Zebari described as a "national disaster... a national tragedy," were the deadliest since the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraqi cities and towns on June 30.

These and other attacks in recent weeks have raised questions about the ability of these forces to maintain security in Iraq as the clock ticks for the deadline for the complete U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq by December 31, 2011.

Zebari said video from the ministry's closed circuit television showed that the suicide bomber drove his truck, loaded with four tons of explosives, nonstop toward the ministry until he reached his target. The attack must have taken months to plan, he said.

The attackers "did not fall from the sky or another planet. They had technical and logistical support," Zebari said. Anyone who helped facilitate the bombing must be "held responsible."

Read the full story here.

I can practically predict what will happen next.

The Iraqi government will ask the US to return their troops back to Baghdad, to restore the peace. And being civilied people we will return.

But just maybe we shouldn't return. Just maybe we should point to the violence and remind them that they are adults, not children. They have to deal with the violence by themselves. Stand on their own two feet. And if they ask why are we doing this? We should point out what they are doing to a minority population in the name of Allah and then demand:

What Kind Of Religion Would Condone This Type Of Torture?

California To Get Rid Of Marriage

Why is it that I am not surprised at the tactics that Gays and Lesbians will go to force the idea of Gay marriage on the nation. On November 4, 2008 the voters of California passed Proposition 8 which states:

Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.

This passed 52.3% to 47.7%. Thus the voters of California spoke saying no to Gay marriage.

This is not the end of the argument. The supporters of Gay marriage are not going to take that lying down. They have a new tactic. Get rid of marriage. No I am not joking.

California's top election official says supporters can start collecting signatures for a proposed ballot measure to strike the word "marriage" from all state laws.

Supporters of this ballot measure want to replace it with the term "domestic partnership," while keeping all the rights of marriage in place.

Read the full story here.

Domestic Partnership is not the same as Marriage. In a partnership, one can just leave the partnership without legal recourse. In a Marriage it takes a divorce to dissolve it. One can have multiple partners in a Domestic Partnership. In a Marriage a person can have only one spouse at a time.

Forcing all people in California to give up Marriage in favor of Domestic Partnership is wrong. But knowing the liberals, idiots, nincompoops in California they will now pass this idea overwhelmingly and sound the death knoll of the American Family.

If this measure passes how long do you think it will be before it is brought to every state in the US?

Marriage is not a right, it is a privilege. If it was a right the government would have to supply each and every person in the nation with a spouse. They don't. And a couple planning on marrying should not have to go and get a Domestic Partnership license but a Marriage license.

Changing the name of Marriage to Domestic Partnership is just a bad idea.

When attending a pro-Gay Marriage Rally, Don't Bring a Cross

Why is it that some groups today believe that if you cause violence and destruction to others you will gain what you want?

In the past rioting and violence has only brought about the negative effect on communities that engaged in this behavior. But today it seems that Gay and Lesbian groups believe that if they riot and attack people, they will gain the overturning of Proposition 8.

An elderly woman who attended a gay rights protest carrying a cross to voice her support of the new California ban on gay marriage says she was attacked by demonstrators and now may press charges.

Palm Springs Police Department spokesman Sgt. Mitch Spike told FOXNews.com no arrests had been made as of Thursday evening and added that victim Phyllis Burgess still is deciding whether she'll press assault charges.

Carrying a large, foam cross, Burgess, 69, showed up at a rally last Friday against Proposition 8, the ban on same-sex marriage approved this month by California voters.

She was there to show her belief in traditional marriage, she said.

Within minutes, however, angry protesters swarmed around the Palm Springs resident, yanked the cross from her hands and trampled on it, as seen in a video of the incident posted on YouTube.





Full Story

Every person has a right to their opinion and the right to make their voice heard in protest. What a person or group doesn not have is the right to force their beliefs and opinions on another with violence or the threat of violence.

This behavior goes against the rights that our founding fathers had instilled in our Constitution. And I hope that the person or persons responsible for this attack will be prosecuted under the full extent of the law.
