"We must not allow ourselves to become like the system we oppose.
We cannot afford to use methods of which we will be ashamed when
we look back, when we say, '...we shouldn't have done that.'
We must remember, my friends, that we have been given a wonderful cause.
The cause of freedom! And you and I must be those who will walk with
heads held high. We will say, 'We used methods that can stand the
harsh scrutiny of history.'"

Bishop Desmond Tutu
(1931- ) Nobel Prize for Peace 1984

    That such a sentiment was alive today. Criminal religionists (socialists communists, fascists, progressives, etc.) now control with out conscious; AND, they do not even have it in them to entertain natural law's life, liberty, inalienable rights or individual sovereignty. The occupying statist theocracy infesting this land / the macabre death cults killing mind / heart / prosperity have no shame in their methodology of carnage, chaos or destruction.
