"This is why democracy fails people, because when it is around long enough, the lunatics get a chance to run the asylum."
I couldn't have said it better myself.
Okay, I could have, but I am Mr. Kung-Fu American English.
First, the ACLU is the reason you are able to spout your bullsh*t.
Second, don't quote Shakespeare if you don't understand what he was saying.
Fundies are great ones for quoting things out of context, so I shouldn't be surprised that you did too.
Take a first-year English Lit course and you'll see you are off-base.
From Howard L. Nations:
"ronically, the rallying cry of the lawyer bashers has become Shakespeare's quote from Henry VI: "THE FIRST THING WE DO, LET'S KILL ALL THE LAWYERS."
Those who use this phrase pejoratively against lawyers are as miserably misguided about their Shakespeare as they are about the judicial system which they disdain so freely.
Even a cursory reading of the context in which the lawyer killing statement is made in King Henry VI, Part II, (Act IV), Scene 2, reveals that Shakespeare was paying great and deserved homage to our venerable profession as the front line defenders of democracy.
The accolade is spoken by Dick the Butcher, a follower of anarchist Jack Cade, whom Shakespeare depicts as "the head of an army of rabble and a demagogue pandering to the ignorant," who sought to overthrow the government. Shakespeare's acknowledgment that the first thing any potential tyrant must do to eliminate freedom is to "kill all the lawyers" is, indeed, a classic and well-deserved compliment to our distinguished profession."
Oh my god, I think something just burst in my head. Shakespeare didn't "say" that. He put those words in the mouth of a character named Dick The Butcher who is an ignorant jackass who's part of a violent mob that wants to rule.
The line is meant to both humorously play on people's hatred of lawyers (even then), and to illuminate the fact that the law, especially in England, was seen as a bulwark against tyrannical leaders.
For the good of humanity, the entire ACLU needs to be taken out, shot, their bodies fed to wild dogs.
Oh, silly me. I'm sorry. I thought I lived in a peaceful democracy where people hashed out their differences by debate and logic.
End of friggin' question.
Once again, argumentum ad stompingyourfoot.

Yes, because demanding that theocracy not be allowed to take over is truly horrific.
Seriously, Shakespeare said it best. 'First thing we do is kill all the lawyers.'
This has already been totally debunked here.
Such a sorry testament to the loathsomeness of this thing we call civilization that the same parasitical infestation is allowed to raze and ruin society hundreds of years later.
And they're doing this by ensuring people's liberties?
At what point did common sense and simple justice become debatable?
They've always been debatable. What subject is there that is not debatable?
At what point did simple decency and holding degenerates accountable for their crimes become taboo?
Well, since "decency" is not defined as "whatever Morgoth says it is," you have yet to prove that decency is taboo.
As far as holding "degenerates accountable for their crimes," I have no idea what you're talking about, but I can assure you that many guilty people are punished.
****ing lawyers should all be garroted, and their bodies thrown to the dogs as well.
And once again, we reiterate the angry, hate-filled bile of this post.
An apt username for such a bloodthirsty freak of nature.
For those not in the know, Morgoth is the name of Tolkien's supreme evil deity from "The Silmarillion" - superior and more evil than his servant Sauron.
So yes... altogether too apt.
Yes, let´s kill all the lawyers, all civil right fighters, but don´t protest the day you most probably need one, because it will come, believe me.
All the ACLU does is petition the court to enforce the Constitution. They don't write the laws, and they certainly didn't write the Constitution. They just insist that the laws be enforced.
If you disagree with the laws, your fight is with Congress and the Constitution, not the ACLU.
At what point did common sense and simple justice become debatable?
They've always been debatable. Morgoth's "simple justice" is another person's injustice. That's why we have courts to decide these thing.
I find it telling that this vicious fucktard wants to shoot or garrote his enemies while lawyers argue cases in court entirely by talking . You don't have to like them, but they're better than any alternative involving violence. But fundies seem to get off on hatred and violence, so Morgoth is understandably frustrated.
And what's with the loathsomeness of this thing we call civilization ? If you hate civilization so much, go live naked in the desert. Don't let anything bite you in the privates.
At what point did allowing innocent people to suffer for crimes they never committed, or be stripped of rights they're powerless to protect, become okay? Let's go back to that point and garrot whatever caused it (because we ain't getting out without garroting *something*, for sure....).
If your rights were seriously abridged, the ACLU might fight your case for you. No really, even though you are a conservative fucktard. They're defending Freddie Phelps.
"'First thing we do is kill all the lawyers'"
Yeah, everybody hates lawyers until they need one. Some of the nicest, most generous, best people I know are lawyers.
I AM glad you are so concerned with feeding the dogs.
"For the good of humanity, the entire ACLU needs to be taken out, shot, their bodies fed to wild dogs."
Nice to see that in trying to defend humanity, your methods remain as humane as possible /blatantsarcasm.
Shakespeare also wrote, Hubble bubble, toil and trouble.
Do you listen to ghosts, witches, liars, murderers, neurotic and psychotic bitches (the men are even worse), fairies, sprites, Greek Goddesses...
Is this a dumbass which I see before me,
The head lead toward my hand? Come, let me club thee.
I have thee smote, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fallible logic, insensible
To feeling as to slight? or art thou but
A dumbass of the kind, a fey cretin,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
I see thee yet, in form as palpable
As this which now I draw.
Thou marshall'st shite the way your mind was going;
And such a blunt instrument was no use.
Thine posts are made the fools o' by those with sense,
Or else worth nay the rest; I see thy swill,
And on thy blunt and insane gouts of blitheration,
Which was not seen before. There's no such thing:
It is the bloody business which informs
Thus to mine eyes. Now o'er the one halfworld
Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse
The curtain'd sleep; Klannery celebrates
Pale Shitbit's offerings, and wither'd minds,
Alarum'd by your inanity, the wolf,
Whose howl's his watch, thus with his stealthy pace.
With Yahweh's ravishing strides, towards his design
Moves like a git. Thou sure and firm-set earth,
Hear not my steps, which way they walk, for fear
Thy very stoned prat of my wherewithin,
And take the present horror from the bygone time,
Which now suits with shit. Whiles I threat, he lives:
Words to the heart of density too cold breath gives.
(apologies to "the play")
"For the good of humanity, the entire ACLU needs to be taken out, shot, their bodies fed to wild dogs."
After everything the ACLU has done to fight for your right to worship as you see fit, free from governmental interference, this is how you would choose to repay them? Ungrateful much?
"This is why democracy fails people, because when it is around long enough, the lunatics get a chance to run the asylum."
Have to agree with you here. Christians have been running the asylum for the last six years and we've all seen how that turned out.
For FUCK'S SAKE. READ Shakespeare before you fucking quote it, okay?
I think a big problem with society, especially with fundies, is that they spout shit about crap they have never even read.
"For the good of humanity, the entire ACLU needs to be taken out, shot, their bodies fed to wild dogs. End of friggin' question."
But since its atheists who want to kill people, who is going to shoot the ACLU?
They won't kill themselves, and christians can't shoot them being pro life and all.
"This is why democracy fails people, because when it is around long enough, the lunatics get a chance to run the asylum. "
The Bush administration is proof of that.
You have no idea what the hell Shakepeare meant when he said "First thing we do is kill all the lawyers". Go take an English class, really understand what it means, and then coem back and use that quote.
"For the good of humanity, the entire ACLU needs to be taken out, shot, their bodies fed to wild dogs. End of friggin' question. This is why democracy fails people, because when it is around long enough, the lunatics get a chance to run the asylum.
Seriously, Shakespeare said it best. 'First thing we do is kill all the lawyers.'"
Okay. And when something crops up that results in your personal freedoms being infringed or even eliminated (say, if there's an ultra-left-wing president elected, who wants to eliminate the rights of everyone right-wing, Fundamentalist Christian, gun owner, etc), what legal recourse will you have? Who will fight for your rights?
I love the smell of destroyed arguments in the morning. Smells like... victory.

True just look at our recent election. Popular vote lost and look who's running around.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
