Independent States - Individual Laws? (Plan=Divide and Conquer)

Updated on November 23, 2015

Divide and Conquer = State Independence

Our Truths

The "divide and conquer" decisions: are they real or just another conspiracy theory?

Look around yourself - this is no 'theory'!!

Our lives and politics will never be the same again.

This video was truth in the 1940's and even more so today! Don't be afraid of the truth. The truth will set us free.

Individual States - Individual Laws

ARE YOU IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL STATES HAVING THE CAPACITY TO LEGISLATE THEIR OWN LAWS?

When is Divide and Conquer ever Acceptable?

The choices to discriminate are ours individually, but we must first think of the consequences of those decisions

Independent State Laws?

Are independent state laws really feasible? Reasonable? Suitable? Practical? Rational? Logical? or Legal?

Let's explore the pros and cons of each state having independent laws for:

  • marriage equality?
  • religious laws?
  • teaching 'religion' in schools?
  • teaching sex education in schools?
  • intelligent design versus science?
  • mandating morality laws?
  • banning gay rights?
  • for discrimination of any kind?
  • gun laws?
  • against illegal aliens? (non extra terrestrial of course)
  • banning minimum wages?
  • stalking laws?
  • redefining rape?
  • banning abortion?
  • devaluing women's rights?
  • abortion laws?
  • laws against contraceptives?
  • passing laws banning abortion even though federal law prohibits it

These issues are being legislated by Republican led states. Just who does the GOP really represent? They advocate individual state independence from the Federal Government laws. Why? To Promote independence (freedom to execute laws that ban anything they deem appropriate, laws that discriminate against minorities, and laws that promote the religion they think America should represent).

The Federal Government was set up to make sure there was 'equality'. And to make sure that any "majority" could not pass laws that discriminate against any "minority". We seem to be digressing as the years go by instead of progressing to a more diverse and tolerant world.

Meaning: equal rights for all American citizens alike, without discrimination:

{the right of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness}.

The reasons for stipulating these basic human rights was not without purpose. It was designed to prevent the majority from passing laws that discriminate against any minority group.

These are NOT issues to be decided by the majority. Equal rights do not mean only for the pious majority.

When individual states pass laws that discriminate against issues such as same sex marriage and the supreme court rules that the DOMA is unconstitutional, we can only surmise that those states' explicit intent is to incite further social unrest with the deliberate goal of creating division in this country. (divide and conquer concept).

And the same goes for states that ban abortion when the federal law prohibits that kind of discrimination (Roe versus Wade). Discrimination based on "religious beliefs" is not an excuse for deliberate discrimination at will.

Should We Be "voting" on Equal Rights? Really?

The current trend by the GOP seems to be a deliberate attempt to re-write the constitution to eliminate equality for everyone in order to legalize blatant discrimination based on religious intolerance and ignorance.

It is a gigantic ploy by those who want our Federal Government to topple. The results would be nothing short of anarchy. {a state of lawlessness, or political disorder, due to the absence of governmental authority. A utopian society of individuals who enjoy complete freedom without government. Absence or denial of any authority or established order}-(Websters dictionary)

THIS BASIC PREMISE? --- DIVIDE AND CONQUER !!!

We are witnessing the destructiveness of such a movement around us today. Individual states attacking their own citizens with ludicrous laws. {ludicrous: amusing or laughable through obvious absurdity, incongruity, exaggeration or eccentricity; meriting derisive laughter or scorn as absurdly inept, false or just plain foolish} (Websters Dictionary)

Just as we see currently being done in such states as Wisconsin, Florida, Maine, So. Carolina, Alabama, Arizona and California - just to name a few of the most visibly vile.

This kind of tactic would (and does) create more havoc than good common sense would dictate, or permit. What we best need today is confirmation of our solidarity, equality, citizenry, and consistency with unity of purpose, interests, objectives and standards.

Lets look at a few examples of individual state laws wreaking havoc on the total American citizenry; causing the affliction of vengeance or punishment; giving free play, or course, to malevolent feelings and bringing wide and general destruction, confusion and disorder - not only to those states named above, but to all of our "united" ? states of America.

  • Illegal alien status chaos - stereotyping, division, harassment, discrimination....
  • attacks on women's rights - eliminating choices, loss of personal freedoms, making 'moral' and 'medical' decisions by legislators.....
  • attempting to control and/or mandate morality - denying basic rights based on 'moral' grounds, denying same sex marriages, increasing discriminatory laws against the gay community, Muslims, and other non-christian people.....
  • destroying unions - that provide for safe work environments, equal pay for equal work, fair wages, non work place discrimination.....
  • promoting inane and idiotic religious laws that - promote hatred, intolerance, bigotry, and influence our politics to discriminate against non religious citizens.....
  • marriage equality fiasco - denying basic equality to minorities based on religious ideology, instead of the equality afforded under the law, and causing social unrest and divisiveness.....
  • minority rights - promoting discrimination laws against women, gays, Muslims and increasing the mistrust, intolerance, bigotry and hatred.....

This attempt to divide our great nation is way too disruptive and destructive to our democratic way of life.

{note here that - by the use of "democracy as a way of life'' does not particularly reflect a preference toward the democratic party versus the republican party.

It is instead referencing a way of life that depicts a government for the people, and by the people; Not pro business, pro wealthy, pro religion, pro conservative values of a few; but equality for all people alike.

A government in which the supreme power is vested in the people, and exercised by them directly, or indirectly, through a system of representation, that is 'honestly' elected and without hereditary, or arbitrary class distinctions, or privileges.}

Such a simple process and yet so corrupted by greed and avarice for the excursiveness, or insatiable self serving desires for wealth, gain, and power over others by a small percentage of the population.

How this cupidity (inordinate desire for wealth, and lust for power) has come to permeate our society, unfettered by blindness, or apathy, is beyond my comprehension.

It has enamored our passivity with the false promises that honest and hard work can give us all and equal chance, or opportunity, to attain wealth and the coveted "American Dream"; when in truth those promises can never be fulfilled by 99% of the population.

This mendacious promise, was willfully perpetrated by the liars, thieves, and deceptive sociopath personalities who are the true beneficiaries of all that promised wealth and abundance.

Their false and empty philosophy has totally permeated our unsuspecting society with such guile and deception that they have invaded an entire political party ideology that now represents only themselves; with their integrated assertions, theories, and aims that constitute a very narrow sociopolitical program to only benefit themselves.

If corporate mentality totally takes over this once genuine democratic principled government, we are all doomed to a life of austerity as we have not seen the likes of before. {austerity: stern and cold in appearance, somber, grave, morally strict, giving little or no hope for pleasure, freedom or equality. An ascetic way of life that practices strict self denial, as a measure of personal and spiritual discipline} (Websters dictionary) - as is built into any theocratic and/or plutocratic government.

Do we (those of us who cherish freedom and equality) really want our government transformed into a practicing religious entity with the power to mandate morals and pass laws that we see in 3rd world countries where "blasphemy" or "irreverence" is cause for imprisonment or being put to death? Or worse? being slaves to the wealthy?

Have we learned nothing from the past OR the current situation going on all around us on this planet???


When history is deliberately ignored, man will always repeat the same foolish mistakes with the false impression that this time it will have a different outcome.

A Perfect Example Why We Need Uniformity in U.S. Laws. Not Individual State Laws.

Is Anybody Listening ??

"Miraculously" "mysteriously" he was NOT recalled? Talk about corruption at the polls.

Individual States - Individual laws?

So, let's take that poll again - Are you still in favor of individual states having the capacity to legislate their own laws?
