If you are offended by being told you are not entitled to something then don’t click the link. If you are offended by being told you have no right not to be offended proceed no further. Click the link to read the Bill Of Non Rights. Pay particular attention to Article II:
I read this “Non-Rights Constitution” which is many ways I agree with, but some part I do not! But that is my take on our “Freedoms”, I have the right to agree or disagree. I may not agree with you on a topic or subject, but I am duty bound to protect your right of “Free Speech”!
I have and always will “Protect and Defend the Constitution of the United States of American against all Enemies, Foregn and Domestic!” An Oath that I Took, and still Honor!"

Steve,
Respectfully i think you need to read that Bill of Non Rights again. First off this is not a real bill just something written by a frustrated congressman. Second no where in that Bill is there anything that hinders any of the rights given you and I under the real Bill of Rights. Matter of fact it virtually states if you are offended by my opinion too bad because I have the right to express my opinion or in other words Freedom of Expression (speech).
I still work under that very same oath! Now I do it as a D.o.D. civilian where as in the past it was as a soldier. You would be very hard pressed to find anyone more dedicated to the defense of the United States Constitution than me. Not being arrogant there just stating fact. Lots of us out there feel the same way. I ship them their freight every day.
Thanks for posting our ‘non rights’. I agree 100%. I too took that same oath to defend the constitution. Right now our constitution needs a lot of defending from those that would destroy our way of life as we know it.
Unfortunately, this Bill-of- Non - Rights, does not even begin to scratch the surface of the “demands” of the “entitlement people” whom for generations now have made it their sole “occupation”. Question: If you don’t get all the entitlements that you apply for in a given Tax Year, can you write that off as a loss on your 1040?(assuming you file one!) LOL!!! I’m not REALLY laughing, cuz this ain’t funny my friends! Integrity - Responsibility - Obligation - Citizenship - If you can’t honor this country, at least do not dishonor it. If you can not help clean up the environment, at least, do not scatter your junk across the landscape. If you can’t/won’t be part of the solution, at least, don’t be part of the problem! Be my guest to do absolutely nothing, as long as you also do nothing wrong - the rest of us will pick up the SLACK! I know! I know! I’m all over the place here! You should see me when I’m upset!!! I’m done now. PS, this forum name should probably be changed to: DON’T GET ME STARTED!
Wouldn’t it be terrible, if everyone in the World agreed with each other, on every topic? Then we would not have anything to talk about with each other, since everyone agrees with everyone else!
Thank God! That we each are different in our own ways. That is what makes life so interesting! ~Parnelli

Do you mean like in the 50’s when EVERYONE collected grease in soup cans for the war effort, or when EVERYONE bought war bonds and sacrificed and waited in long lines for meat , wheat products , gasoline, leather goods etc. also for our war effort. Elections were contentious but civil. I lived through a very small part of those " boring " times but as I recall there was PLENTY in common to talk about and everyone did. Those were in fact the best days of MY life and I yearn , naively perhaps, for their return.

PS: When I say “those were…the best days of MY life” i say that in a “poetic” sense for NOW is REALLY that time for me.
