Happy International Asperger’s Day!

Hans Asperger

I’d like to wish Hans Asperger a happy posthumorous 106th birthday, and honor him for his important research into the autistic spectrum, AND his efforts to protect Autistic individuals from extermination under Nazi eugenics! He’s a true champion of the Neurodiversity movement! To everyone else, happy International Asperger’s Day!

Some parting words from Asperger, himself: “We are convinced, then, that autistic people have their place in the organism of the social community. They fulfil their role well, perhaps better than anyone else could, and we are talking of people who as children had the greatest difficulties and caused untold worries to their care-givers.”

Drones Over U.S. Get OK By Congress

U.S. Customs and Border Protection uses qualified pilots to operate Predator drones for surveillance along the border

My Commentary: Under the Congress-approved “FAA Reauthorization Bill,” the FAA “projects that 30,000 drones could be in the nation’s skies by 2020,” because “the legislation would order the FAA, before the end of the year, to expedite the process through which it authorizes the use of drones by federal, state and local police and other agencies.”

Great! Domestic drone surveillance is EXACTLY what our brutal, over-militarized American police force needs! Now, we’ll all FINALLY be safe! ::whew!:: Read more »

Democracy, or a Constitutional Republic?

The picture below, which was posted onto the Facebook wall of a Thomas Paine dedication page, and reads, “Democracy …a challenge,” with the caption, “The Sun never shined on a cause of greater worth,” sparked the following correspondence*…

Jan P: That’s funny??? Neither my copy of the Declaration of Independence nor my copy of the Constitution mentions anything about a Democracy… they keep refering to A REPUBLIC!!!!!

Jason G: There is no significant difference between a democracy and a republic, unless you are being a nitpicking asshole.

Rayn: Good point, Jan! I was thinking that very same thing! To America’s Founders, pure “Democracy” was the dangerous legalization of 51% mob rule, while a “Constitutional Republic” sought to protect the Inalienable Rights of the Citizenry, as established by the Constitution, regardless of the will of the majority.

So, rest assured that making such a distinction is a far cry from being a “nitpicking asshole.” :)

“Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote.” – Marvin Simkin Read more »

Happy 275th Birthday, Thomas Paine!

Thomas Paine

I’d like to wish Thomas Paine a happy posthumorous 275th birthday! As a staunch abolitionist, and a champion of gender equality, he put America’s other “Founders” to shame! In honor of his memory, and that of ALL INFO-WARRIORS, I will continue to expose the the ultra-wealthy, elitist, genocidal, eugenicist, slave-driving, women-oppressing, Death-worshiping parasites and hypocrites that CO-OPTED the Revolution of his time, while revealing modern-day lizards, as well!
