You know you live in an upside down land if...............

A Muslim officer crying "Allah Akbar" while shooting up an army base is considered to have committed "Workplace violence" while an American citizen boasting a Ron Paul bumper sticker is classified as a "Domestic terrorist."

You can get arrested for expired tags on your car but not for being in the country illegally.

The government believes the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more of our money.

A seven year old boy can be thrown out of school for calling his teacher "cute" but hosting a sexual exploration and diversity classes in grade school is acceptable.

The Supreme Court of the United States can rule that lower courts cannot display the 10 Commandments while sitting in front of a display of the 10 Commandments.

Children are forcibly removed from parents who appropriately discipline them while the children of drug addicts are left to rot in filthy infested cesspools.

Working class Americans pay for their own health care and the health care of everyone else while unmarried women are free to be professional baby makers having child after child on the "States" dime while never being held responsible for their own choices.

Parents believe that the State is responsible for providing for their children.

Hard work and success are rewarded with higher taxes and government intrusion, while slothful, lazy behavior is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks Medicaid and subsidized housing.

Being self sufficient is considered a threat to the government.

Politicians think that stripping away the amendments to the Constitution is really protecting the rights of the citizens.

The rights of the government come before the rights of the individual.

You pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big screen TV while your neighbor defaults on his mortgage (while buying iphones, TVs and new cars) and the government forgives the debt and reduces his mortgage with your tax dollars.

You have to have your parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to have an abortion.

Being stripped of your ability to defend yourself makes you "safer."

An 80 year old woman can be strip searched by the TSA but a Muslim woman in a burqa is only subject to having her neck and head searched.

Using some nicknames is considered "hate speech" but writing and signing the authorship of songs about raping women and killing cops is considered "art."

You can write a post like this just by reading the news headlines.

Jim,
There are a number or inequities cited. Some I might agree with. Some are overblown hyperbole, or are "straw-men" and "gotcha" lines. For the most part, however, this does more to evade thought and discussion because it sets up the conversation as naturally taking of one side or the other and not to form some commonality.
Sincerely,

It was based on a forward I received from the former joint commander of our military's special operations forces. He evidently thought it was worth passing along.
