The Locked Door with No Key: Why Ohio’s SB 153 Threatens Our Voting Rights Imagine being told you must enter a building to access your rights—to speak, to be counted, to shape the laws that govern your life. The door is locked, and you're told you need a key. But no one will tell you what kind of key you need. Some folks bring house keys. Others arrive with driver’s licenses, birth certificates, even passports. They jiggle them in the lock—nothing works. They aren’t denied because they’re unqualified. They’re denied because the rules changed without explanation. This is the danger behind Ohio’s Senate Bill 153 (SB 153)—a bill that hasn’t passed yet , but is already knocking on our community’s door. What Is SB 153? SB 153 is a proposed law—not yet passed —currently being considered by Ohio’s state legislature. It would require all voters to prove their citizenship before casting a ballot. That may sound fair on the surface—but the bill doesn’t define what “proof of citizenship” ac...

"Freedom has never been gained or lost in one sweeping coup d'etat, but more in small stark steps that culminate in either the victory or defeat of the people."
Freedom is a heavy burden to bare, and it requires those who operate under it, to observe the world so that they will not lose it. Freedom is a double edge sword that cuts both ways and sometimes will cut those wielding her if they are not paying attention. Look at what is going on America and understand that we are suffering from cuts from the sword of freedom. Just because you cut yourself with a tool (a sword like freedom is a tool that is used by people) does not mean you put it away. You either find a better tool for the job, or you improve your method of wielding it. Both of these option requires the user to do work either on the improvement of the tool, or to practice working with it (tool). We can not and should not give away our freedoms because we have been cut by them. We have to be willing to take the bitter with the sweet. the same freedoms that allowed for the mass murders, and the Boston bombing are the same freedoms that allow us to speak our minds without fear of retribution, or create life saving businesses. I know this will be hard for many of you to stomach, but the violation that I see creeping up on us will eventually take everything from us.
"But Brother ha2tim, guns are an evil that our society no longer needs, we have to look out for the safety of our babies", I can hear some of you now saying. Although I personally do not like guns I like having the ability to get one legally when I want it, and I also like having the freedom of privacy when I purchase it as well. I realized years ago that a gun (which is nothing but a tool) was not and is not responsible for the violence that has been around me for years. I am a gunshot victim and I know that it was not the gun that shot me, it was the malicious intent of the individual that owned the gun. Also If our society has outgrown the need for the citizens to carry guns, then let's also have the police, and the military lay down theirs as well.
For me something bigger than gun control is brewing, because at the same time behind "closed doors of our transparent government" (this is an oxymoron) bills like CISPA are being created, debates about the use of drones in America being waged, and etc.. I have to ask the question what is the government (federal, state, and local) seeking. Do they want us to be safe within the freedoms we have been guaranteed by the Creator and the Constitution, or do they simply want to control the people which is just another form of tyranny.
Here is a reminder for those who may not have time to read the documents that lay the foundation for the Government that is supposed to represent us:

We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...
