Ditat Deus

By Capt. Fogg

God enriches: it's the state motto of Arizona. To some it surely suggests that the rich are the chosen of God and the poor and struggling? Your papers please.

My hypocrisy alarm has burned itself to a cinder over the last few days simply from the stench coming from our self-styled Libertarian friends from Arizona who have just given far more power to the State government than the Constitution allows and reduced constitutional protection from the power of law enforcement provided by that constitution -- a step away from Libertarian principles that even the notorious Glenn Beck balks at.

Anyway, if God has enriched Arizona in any way, the government of that stolen state has done a great deal to cheapen its claim to being a part of a free country and to impoverish its moral status as well. Perhaps taking a clue from the Texas school board's redaction of American history, Arizona has decided that no courses taught in its schools may give students the impression that they belong to a persecuted minority.

That's right, the Navaho have always had it easy, no one ever gave a black man a hard time and the state itself was never taken by force. It's now official.

  • No one comments on most of your posts because you write about things you act like you are an expert on. But by reading you can see that you are obviously ignorant, and a fool. You write things that you know are untrue, to incite people and for a "reaction". You make generalizations and assumptions that you have come up with out of thin air, or you heard someone else say it and you thought it was really witty. You're a professional troller, switch to twitter and facebook, maybe someone would take you seriously there and you'd have at least one or two comments on something as poorly thought out as this.

  • The motto is designed to snowball people in thinking about god, not saying that god punishes you by keeping you broke. Any sain person will tell you that how hard you work/study will allow you to grow.

    I agree that if you want people to take you seriously, you must show exact info rather than broad statements.

    I don't know why people get so pissed of when a legislature passes a bill that is stupid....

    in a year or two it likely will be repealed by the supreme court and until then most people will just violate it anyway.
