We The People of the United States


"We the sensible people of the United States, in an
attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of
justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote
positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt free liberty
to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try
one more time to ordain and establish some common sense
guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional,
and other liberal bed-wetters.

We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of
people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they
require a Bill of NON-Rights."


ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen
TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you
can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.


ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended.
This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom
for everyone not just you! You may leave the room, turn the
channel, express a different opinion, etc.; but the world
is full of idiots, and probably always will be.


ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm.
If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more
careful, do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you
and all your relatives independently wealthy.


ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and
housing. Americans are the most charitable people to
be found and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are
quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after
generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve
nothing more than the creation of another generation of
professional couch potatoes.


ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care.
That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing,
we're just not interested in public health care.


ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm
other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim,
or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us
want to see you fry in the electric chair.


ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions
of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or
services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the
rest of us get together and lock you away in a place
where you still won't have the right to a big screen
color TV or a life of leisure.


ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us
sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you
along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage
of the opportunities of education and vocational training
laid before you to make yourself useful.


ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an
American means that you have the right to PURSUE
happiness which, by the way, is a lot easier if you are
unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created
by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.


ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care
where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or
go back to wherever you came from!


(lastly....)


ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's
history or heritage. This country was founded on the
belief in one true GOD. And yet, you are given the freedom
to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all;
with no fear of persecution. The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST
is part of our heritage and history and if you are
uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!!!!



If you agree, share this with a friend. No, you don't have
to, and nothing tragic will befall you if you don't. I just
think it's about time common sense is allowed to flourish.
Sensible people of the United States speak out because if you
don't, insensible people will.
