The "Pro-Life" Flat Store

11/30/2021

It's time for American Christians to stop playing a rigged game that is costing tens of millions of innocents their lives.

A very long time ago, I was a fifteen year old street kid from a very broken family who ended up working on the carnival for ten years. I'll have to tell you all some stories some time. I've got some good ones.

But one story will have to do for today.

In the carnival game business back in the Seventies there were still a few that were flat out rigged. Carnies called them "flat stores." The sort of thing that had a hidden kicker to make the ball pop back out of a wooden "bucket" every single time the operator wanted it to.

That's what the abortion business in America is. A bloody flat store. On the surface, it looks like there are "two sides" fighting against each other, the pro-abortionists and the pro-lifers. But, it's a complete scam. Even when what I call "Pro-life, Inc." "wins," it loses. Every single time. They are in practice nothing but shills for the abortionists. And that's true because the statutes they pass through our legislatures, long before they ever reach a court, have already surrendered the only real moral, constitutional, and legal argument against permitting the mass murder of innocent babies. And these lawless statutes that they pass are all done within the framework of the fallacy of judicial supremacy. So, not only are they certain to lose every time, they're double certain to lose every time. Even if the operators let them "win" once in awhile for effect, at best, all they end up with is come cheap, useless trinket.

Tomorrow, the "Supreme" Court will hear oral arguments in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case, which involves Mississippi's "15-week" "pro-life" "law."

Emblematic of fifty years of utter failure, with this case the "pro-life" side, as usual, walks into court having already surrendered the only real moral, constitutional, and legal argument against abortion, which is constitutionally-required equal protection under the law for the supreme God-given, unalienable individual right. And they are still completely bound by the continued destructive misimpression that the court has sufficient governmental authority to continue to authorize mass murder. It's so predictable as to be a farce.

This lawless "law," which in effect ends with "and then you can murder the baby," is not going to change anything, inside or outside of the courts. That's true because most American Christians remain either ignorant or morally compromised when it comes to abortion. And their Republican/National Right to Life political "leaders" like it that way. It's how they make their money and win their votes from ignorant or morally-compromised Christians.

There is once again a lot of "pro-life" and media hype going around about this case. Both sides need to raise money, I guess. But this Mississippi law is a bad joke. It does nothing good. It should not be praised by the church. It's a bad tree which cannot possibly produce good fruit. All an abortionist has to do if he wants to keep killing, and making mountains of cash, is lie on some paperwork, or not even file. He, a mass murderer by profession, is given, by "pro-life" (Christian?) statute, the role of judge, jury, and executioner, without due process for the victim. There is no due process of any sort before the execution. This "law" denies that process to the innocent child. If it stands, with the imprimatur of the court, that serves to do nothing but continue the demise of the principles of due process and equal protection under the law for the supreme God-given rights of all people in this country.

Please, just stop it. Abolish abortion now, in spite of the courts. The Christians in this country have the political power to do so, if they will simply stop playing an obviously rigged game and thereby supporting evil. Demand that your executive officers and legislators provide equal protection for all persons, as God and our Constitution require.

Stop saying that abortion is legal

I'm gobsmacked every time I see abolitionists continue to use language that cedes legality to abortion. They simply don't listen, no matter how many times it is patiently explained to them that this is a destructive fallacy, one that digs a deep hole for our side that cannot be overcome as long as it is continued.


Abortion violates the law of God. It violates the laws of nature that God ordained. It violates every stated purpose, and the explicit equal protection requirements, of the supreme law of our land. It is not, and cannot, be legal in America.

Laws or court opinions that violate the laws of nature and/or the Constitution are, by every principle this free republic was founded upon, absolutely null and void. That means that, legally, we are to act as if they do NOT exist.

Please, please, please, get this vital, fundamental lesson through your head, because as long as you refuse to do so, you are, whether you know it or not, or whether you will admit it or not, continuing to give (im)moral, legal, and political strength to those who are perpetrating this bloody holocaust.

"When human laws contradict or discountenance the means, which are necessary to preserve the essential rights of any society, they defeat the proper end of all laws, and so become null and void."

-- Alexander Hamilton

"[A] law repugnant to the Constitution is void, and [...] courts, as well as other departments, are bound by that instrument."

Core of the problem with abortion exposed in Texas

4/16/2019

Tom Hoefling

The debacle in the committee hearing room in Austin, Texas last week exposed the core of the problem with abortion. It all comes down to the humanity, and the God-given, unalienable, equal rights of the individual child, and whether or not the perpetrators who seek to slaughter them will be punished in the same way other murderers are dealt with under the law.

In other words, it all came down to the same things it came down to in front of the Supreme Court in 1973. Prior to Roe vs. Wade, Texas had unjust, immoral, unconstitutional laws on the books that deprived the unborn child of their equal rights, and punished their murderers differently, and much more leniently, than the murderers of those fortunate enough to have passed through a birth canal. Which, of course, provided the pretext the wicked Blackmun court needed to dehumanize, to depersonify, the unborn child. Which, of course, then led to the cold-blooded, premeditated murder of more then sixty million innocent, helpless, defenseless children.

And what was the response of Pro-Life, Inc., and their faithful minions in the Texas legislature when presented with a just, constitutional bill that would criminalize all abortions in their state? They were steadfast in their determination to make the exact same moral, constitutional, and legal error that led to Roe in the first place, even though more than 98% of the more than three hundred citizens who testified in front of their committee spent more than eight hours, late into the night, explaining to them in great depth, in exquisite detail, why doing this would be a gross violation of the most sacred obligations of their solemn oaths.

And the innocent blood continues to flow.

Tom Hoefling:  "Is it right? Is it constitutional? Is it absolutely necessary?"

Tom Hoefling

Yesterday I was asked by a new friend for my thoughts on Limited Government.

My response:

I have a simple three part test of all laws and public policies:

1) Is it right?

2) Is it constitutional?

3) Is it absolutely necessary?

Much of what our federal government does today fails all three parts of the test.

Most of what our federal government does today fails to meet one or more parts of the test.

We have to get back within the bounds of morality, constitutionality, and common sense or this great republic cannot possibly survive.

Self-government in liberty cannot be preserved and delivered to our children and grandchildren unless we soon return to the basic principles America was founded upon.

Tom Hoefling's Eight Elements of Good Law

1/23/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture
Morality – An unjust law is no law at all.

Constitutionality – Unconstitutional laws are null and void.

Necessity – Unnecessary laws are an unjust, unfair, counter-productive burden on the people.

Generality - Laws should not benefit only one group or bring harm upon any narrowly-defined group of individuals.

Prospectivity - Laws should always apply only in the future and never to the past. This is why our Constitution bars ex post facto laws.

Publicity – All laws should be widely published and well-known to all.

Consent – Our laws must be generally acceptable to those who will have to live by them.

Due Process – Our laws must be applied equally and fairly, with the punishment for each similar crime being the same for any convicted lawbreaker.

"If I am elected President of the United States, a team will be assigned to each piece of legislation that is passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate to examine in great detail whether such prospective laws meet this simple but rigorous test. I will also have a permanent copy of these eight elements on my desk and will personally test each bill against this plumb line before I sign it."

"Opinions are sometimes right, and sometimes wrong. But they aren't law."

"Opinions are sometimes right, and sometimes wrong. But they aren't law.

In the early days of our government, Supreme Court opinions were so insignificant that Congress didn't bother preserving them. Opinions were left to individuals to keep track of, and were not congressionally-funded into official records until 1874, almost a century after our independence. Before Congress stepped in, Court records were printed and kept under copyright by private citizens and reporters, who sold them for profit.

Opinions of the Court were kept "loosey-goosey" for decades, and not preserved with certified integrity. Actual statute was held officially and carefully, in order to preserve its certainty as law.
In 1874, when Congress had decided to finally begin funding and overseeing the printing of Supreme Court opinions, while leaving their actual production to be handled privately, it moved its own code away from private printers to be solely handled by the U.S. government.

To this day, the actual production of Court opinions is done by contract to private entities. (You are apparently even invited, as a private citizen, to help out with any errors before the official printing!)
By contrast, actual federal code, the statute that is "on the books" because it went through the constitutional process of lawmaking, remains meticulously and faithfully produced by the U.S. government, start to finish.

Supreme Court opinions have always been treated as inferior to the United States code--because they are not the "law of the land.""

God's choice, our duty

"The only Person with any legitimate "choice" in matters of protecting innocent life and defining marriage is God. And He made those choices at the beginning of His creation. The only real question left for us is whether or not we will dutifully conform our laws and practices to His choice, so as to be blessed, or to be a curse to our posterity."

The highest respect for the law

6/19/2014

0 Comments

 
"One may well ask: 'How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others?' The answer lies in the fact that there are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that 'an unjust law is no law at all.'

Now, what is the difference between the two? How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law.

...Thus it is that I can urge men to obey the 1954 decision of the Supreme Court, for it is morally right; and I can urge them to disobey segregation ordinances, for they are morally wrong. ...A law is unjust if it is inflicted on a minority that, as a result of being denied the right to vote, had no part in enacting or devising the law.

I hope you are able to see the distinction I am trying to point out. In no sense do I advocate evading or defying the law, as would the rabid segregationist. That would lead to anarchy. One who breaks an unjust law must do so openly, lovingly, and with a willingness to accept the penalty. I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law. Of course, there is nothing new about this kind of civil disobedience. It was evidenced sublimely in the refusal of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to obey the laws of Nebuchadnezzar, on the ground that a higher moral law was at stake. It was practiced superbly by the early Christians, who were willing to face hungry lions and the excruciating pain of chopping blocks rather than submit to certain unjust laws of the Roman Empire. To a degree, academic freedom is a reality today because Socrates practiced civil disobedience. In our own nation, the Boston Tea Party represented a massive act of civil disobedience.

We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was 'legal' and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was 'illegal.' It was 'illegal' to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. Even so, I am sure that, had I lived in Germany at the time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers. If today I lived in a Communist country where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I would openly advocate disobeying that country's antireligious laws."

Impartial justice

"Without justice being freely, fully, and impartially administered, neither our persons, nor our rights, nor our property, can be protected. And if these, or either of them, are regulated by no certain laws, and are subject to no certain principles, and are held by no certain tenure, and are redressed, when violated, by no certain remedies, society fails of all its value; and men may as well return to a state of savage and barbarous independence."

When human laws become null and void

12/14/2013

0 Comments

 
"Hence also, the origin of all civil government, justly established, must be a voluntary compact, between the rulers and the ruled; and must be liable to such limitations, as are necessary for the security of the absolute rights of the latter; for what original title can any man or set of men have, to govern others, except their own consent?  To usurp dominion over a people, in their own despite, or to grasp at more extensive power than they are willing to entrust, is to violate that law of nature, which gives every man the right to his personal liberty; and can, therefore, confer no obligation to obedience."

"When human laws contradict or discountenance the means, which are necessary to preserve the essential rights of any society, they defeat the proper end of all laws, and so become null and void."

Tom Hoefling: Conservatives hold the key to the survival of a free, secure, and prosperous America

12/10/2013

0 Comments

 
"'You shall not murder' contains no exceptions. If there are exceptions made, there can be no equality. Which means there can be no justice. The premises for the rule of law, and any decent claim to liberty, are completely destroyed. What part of this do American Christian 'pro-lifers' fail to understand? The main obstacle to saving our country is not Planned Parenthood, or Obama, it is "conservatives" who don't seem to understand what it is that must be conserved if we are going to survive as a free, secure, prosperous people. I'm sorry if this message is offensive to some, but it's the truth. And it's a truth everyone needs to hear, and act upon in their politics, before it is too late for America and for our posterity."

"When a nation forgets God"

1/5/2013

From Harlan Brown:

I recently finshed reading chapters 2 ("It's Always the Economy") and 3 ("That Which Is Legal Might Also Be Evil") of "When a Nation Forgets God: 7 Lessons from Nazi Germany" by Erwin Lutzer. Page 58 of Chapter 3 says: "Laws reflect a nation's priorities, agenda, and values. In Nazi Germany, where religion was privitized and God was separated from government, not even natural law was recognized as having validity. When Hitler got the Reichstag to give him the power to make the laws, the laws he made were arbitrary, drafted to fulfill the goals of a totalitarian state. The Nazis proclaimed, 'Hitler is the law!' As Goering put it, 'The law and the will of the Fuehrer are one.' Right and wrong were determined by Hitler and his cronies."

Page 61 says: "Without a belief in God, nothing is unconditionally wrong. When God is separated from government we are forced to accept arbitrary laws. Either God is the lawgiver or man is; either we derive our laws from theistic universal values, or we say that the individual countries or cultures are the lawgivers. Either God is supreme the state is supreme."

Lutzer concludes on Page 74: "We must not permit the lawmakers or the courts of America to discourage us from doing what we must: representing Christ in our personal and corporate witness. As our freedoms are curtailed, our witness becomes more focused, more challenging. Let us be obedient to a higher law, the law given by the Supreme Court of the Universe."

"A people who have abandoned their allegiance to God, to self-evident truth, to the principles that make the rule of law, and even civilization itself, possible, are ripe for exactly the same sort of destruction that occurred in the last century in Germany and Russia. Go ahead, burn up your most precious inheritance on the altar of perceived political expediency. Just don't whine when you're destroyed. And don't expect those of us who are determined to maintain the old allegiances to like it, or to thank you."

'Our liberties we prize and our rights we will maintain.'

Tom Hoefling on Government:


"Just as 'good fences make for good neighbors,' good government is mainly about knowing where the legitimate boundaries are, and having the courage to defend those borders forcefully. This is true in terms of the defense of our territory, our security, and our national sovereignty, but it also applies to the sworn duty of all of those in government to equally protect the God-given, unalienable rights of each individual person, from their creation onward, their sacred obligation to stay well within the enumerated powers of our constitutions, and of the role legitimate government must play in balancing the competing rights and interests of the people, in order to establish justice."
