Missouri billboard warns of war

The lines are apparently drawn and the conservatives have had it. A billboard in Missouri states that the Government has failed and you have 3 choices. Don't pay yer taxes, vote out the incumbents, or prepare for war. It has certainly gained lots of attention. Here's a little of the article and a pic:


A new billboard off of Interstate 70 in Missouri provides a short “citizens guide to REVOLUTION of a corrupt government” and issues a call to “PREPARE FOR WAR.”

This billboard replaces one that warned that the socialist “Obama-Nation” is “coming for you.” It’s unclear who the owner of the billboard is, but the first one was the work of a “Missouri businessman.”

While it’s unclear who owns it, the Lafayette County Republican Central Committee seems to endorse it.

X2 sadly kids are taught that the civil war was about slavery, when slavery was far from the main cause.

I would have that sign taken down immediately and have him charged for instigating violence.

excerpted from the Declaration of Independence:

Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

You need to study the civil war and what led up to it. The South was hardly convervatives, if that is what you are saying, and race is not an issue with the current administration. Polosi and Reed are not black, so don't bring race into this, please.

The main reason for the civil war was economics. The North could not do without the raw materials from the South, and the South did not want to bow to the North's demands. They believed thier states rights were being trampled, much as they are today. Slavery was a convienient excuse to rally the people. It needed to be abolished, for sure, but was not the motivation for the ones taking the nation to war.

The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution have no legal bearing these days, HOW DARE YOU SAY YOU HAVE RIGHTS

The government is the only one who can tell you what you can and cant have, shame on you, you fear monger

The MSM says drink the kool-aid, they are going to drag that billboard through the mud, and masses of sheep will say "BAAAAHHHDDDD"
Obamas kool-aid Now with fewer rights but still all that liberal bitter taste you love!
