Princess of Tap Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 The four little girls who died 54 years ago were murdered by 4 Ku Klux Klan members. Another little girl, whose sister was killed, had serious injuries but survived, losing one of her eyes. Prior to the shooting the governor of Alabama, George Wallace, suggested that integration could be stopped with a few good funerals. There was great unknown potential amongst these little girls. A close friend of theirs became the First American Black Woman to be the US Secretary of State. That was Condoleezza Rice, who will forever be haunted by this white supremacist crime.

Princess of Tap Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Somebody is having trouble counting days. Mad-- Where were you on May 15th 1963 when those four little girls were murdered in Alabama? And what were you thinking? Did you think that integration was a good thing or that maybe Governor Wallace was right--that a few good funerals would end it? I can tell you what my father thought. He thought that those 4 little girls would be martyrs for the Civil Rights Cause and that their deaths, though horrible, would help more and more Americans, not just black people, but all the American people to have Equal Civil Rights. Mad - - 54 years ago what did you think about all this? Do you think dylann roof was greatly influenced by the Alabama church bombing? Was that why he killed those black Christians in that South Carolina church? Do you think all those vestiges in the South of the Confederacy and Jim Crow contributed to these white supremacy crimes? Yes, Mad-- what do you think about all of this? DAY 240 Link to post Share on other sites
NipkowDisc Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 but why then does the liberal left who claim human civil rights for all insist on disrespecting the religious faith of millions of older americans by celebrating a scotus ruling that makes a mockery of one of the fundamental underpinnings of judeo-christian western civilization? the liberal left sing praises to the words of thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence about life, liberty and pursuit of happiness but choose to ignore his strong acknowledgement of God. picking and choosing what you like and don't like is indicative of the thought level of 5 year olds. you just can't attribute every traditional judeo-christian based objection of moral disapproval as a manifestation of bigotry and prejudice as religious freedom was extremely important to our founders. and no reasonable person of christian faith believes that barack obama who professed a personal christian faith would ever embrace such a sick ruling if that personal faith were genuine as it is an attack on traditional monogamous marriage. christ said to render on to caesar those things which are caesar's but that chiefly applies to material things and not the moral and spiritual dimensions. so how could president obama proclaiming himself a christian possibly believe that tens of millions of americans would not find that scotus ruling morally abhorent?

Princess of Tap Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 That's what happens when one can't move forward, keep living in the past. Geeze guess she is against or forgot about ... The day I forget about the martyrs of the Civil Rights Movement, who made all of us proud to be Americans and who helped to see to it that all Americans have EQUAL CIVIL RIGHTS, will be the day that I die. Patriotism means not just loving the flag and your country; it also means loving those who have died for our Democracy. If we forget those who have gone before us, whether it was in war or peace to keep our freedom alive, then we have forgotten who we truly are and what we stand for. *Ham-- I feel sorry for you if you're uncomfortable with memories about our recent past history, but I think it's a good thing for all of us to go back and remember exactly how far we've come in only 50 years. And how it would be ridiculous for us to go backwards now after some 50 years of progress. Link to post Share on other sites

Vautrin Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Master Tom did think he was qualified to pick and choose what parts of the Bible he believed in. I'm sure some Christians were hacked off by the Brown decision, which also went against one of the fundamental underpinnings of Western civilization, but they got used to it. Obviously there are Christians who are on both sides of the gay marriage issue. Link to post Share on other sites

" Barack Obama 44th President of the United States of America yes, according to his definition. despite his winning the presidency obama quickly forgot that he was just one man. obama had eight years to address north korea and did nothing. even he knew that it would be useless to attempt dialog with the ugly little schtootz...so he foregoes his presidential obligation to look out for our national security to hopefully pass the problem on to hillary. that was a dereliction of his duty as potus...and him an academic.

Equal, equality; Liberty, Liberty are words from the Declaration of Independence. What you call liberal social terms are terms that Thomas Jefferson utilized in the Declaration of Independence to put down the founding principles of the United States of America, July 4th, 1776. If you don't agree with that wording, then Apparently you don't agree with The Declaration of Independence, the principles for which this country stands. Link to post Share on other sites
