This is
what happens when the moral law on which this country was established is
violated. We have a clash of rights!

In keeping with the spirit
of one of my previous articles titled Christians
Have no Rights in America, I warned that this tyranny was not going to
stop. Our local, State, and Federal
governments would continue to wear down the true real Americans who stand on
the Constitution, the document that free Americans fought and died for, until
they have stomped what is left of freedom right out of them and they just fall
into lockstep with the oppression of these Communist hate America tyrants.
And what
Constitutional law gives the ‘courts’ the right to make law or overturn a law
established by a free people? This has
become a lawless country run by a minority of anti-American Constitutional
haters.
The
government of Coeur
d’Alene Idaho orders Christian ministers
to perform same-sex weddings or face jail and fines.
No equal protection of U.S. Constitutional
rights in Idaho! Homosexuals claim they
are more equal than anyone else! When
the truth is, under the LAW OF NATURE
everyone’ is more equal than the small minority of homosexuals.
City government officials told Donald Knapp that he and his wife Evelyn, both ordained ministers who run Hitching Post Wedding Chapel, are required to perform such ceremonies or face months in jail and/or thousands of dollars in fines. The city claims its “non-discrimination” ordinance requires the Knapps to perform same-sex wedding ceremonies now that the courts have overridden Idaho’s voter-approved constitutional amendment that affirmed marriage as the union of a man and a woman. The so-called “non-discrimination “law discriminates against everyone except HOMOSEXUALS. Another violation of the U.S. Constitution.
Again the law violates the rights of one group in favor of another group. How did we get into this dilemma? As I previously said “This is what happens when the moral law on which this country was established is violated.”
“The government cannot legally force ordained ministers to
act contrary to their faith under threat of jail time and criminal fines,” said ADF Senior Legal Counsel Jeremy Tedesco. “Many
have denied that pastors would ever be forced to perform ceremonies that
are completely at odds with their faith, but that’s what is happening here –
and it’s happened this quickly. The city is on seriously flawed legal ground,
and our lawsuit intends to ensure that this couple’s freedom to adhere to their
own faith as pastors is protected just as the First Amendment intended.”
“The
government exists to protect and respect our freedoms, not attack them,” Tedesco added. “The city cannot erase these fundamental freedoms
and replace them with government coercion and intolerance.”
CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF IDAHO
APPROVED JULY 3, 1890
ARTICLE
I
DECLARATION OF RIGHTS
DECLARATION OF RIGHTS
SECTION
1. INALIENABLE
RIGHTS OF MAN. All
men are by ‘nature’ free and equal, and have certain inalienable rights, among which are
enjoying and defending life and liberty; acquiring, possessing and protecting
property; pursuing happiness and securing safety. (Emphases mine)
Isn’t it interesting that our laws are referenced and founded on ‘nature’ as being free and equal? Homosexuals choose not to be subjected to ‘natural law’ and therefore exempt themselves from equality. Homosexuality and Heterosexuality bear no equal relationship. The Gay Marriage law is a special law for a special group of citizens. The test of that is… Is the GAY Marriage law also for Heterosexuals? No. So it is by its very nature a ‘special law’ defying the equal protection clause and therefore unconstitutional. The Marriage law between a Man and Woman created equal protection for all “men who are by ‘nature’ free.” Even though you might think that is a stretch…Any law intolerant to U.S. and State Constitutional law is no law and cannot be enforced.
SECTION
2. POLITICAL POWER
INHERENT IN THE PEOPLE. All political power is inherent in the people.
Government is instituted for their equal protection and benefit, and they have
the right to alter, reform or abolish the same whenever they may deem it
necessary; and no
special privileges or immunities shall ever be granted that may not be altered,
revoked, or repealed by the legislature. (Emphases mine)
The Court illegally over turned a special privilege repealed by the people by the law of the Idaho state legislature.
SECTION
3. STATE
INSEPARABLE PART OF UNION. The state of Idaho is an inseparable part of the American Union, and ‘the
Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land’. (Emphases
mine)
SECTION 4. GUARANTY
OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. The exercise and enjoyment of ‘religious
faith’ and worship shall forever be guaranteed; and no person shall be denied
any civil or political right, privilege, or capacity on account of his
religious opinions;
but the liberty of conscience hereby secured shall not be construed to dispense
with oaths or affirmations, or excuse acts of licentiousness or justify
polygamous or other pernicious practices, inconsistent with morality or the
peace or safety of the state; nor to permit any person, organization, or
association to directly or indirectly aid or abet, counsel or advise any person
to commit the crime of bigamy or polygamy, or any other crime. No person shall
be required to attend or support any ministry or place of worship, religious
sect or denomination, or pay tithes against his consent; nor shall any
preference be given by law to any religious denomination or mode of worship.
Bigamy and polygamy are forever prohibited in the state, and the legislature
shall provide by law for the punishment of such crimes. (Emphases mine)
So I guess Section 4 of the Idaho Constitution is now null
and void…” GUARANTY OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. The exercise and enjoyment of
‘religious faith’ and worship shall forever be guaranteed; and no person shall
be denied any civil or political right, privilege, or capacity on account of
his religious opinions;”
“No court or legislative act, therefore, contrary
to the Constitution,
can be valid.
To deny this
would be to
affirm that the
deputy is greater
than his principal;
that the servant
is above his
master; that the
representatives of the people are superior to the people themselves.” --- John Jay, First Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court.
The Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution is located at the end of Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and
subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of
the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which
shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;
nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without
due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws."
Where is the equal protection of the law? I guess Donald Knapp and his wife Evelyn, are not equal, only
homosexuals are equal! What did I say???
Special Laws…
First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment
of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom
of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Why then did the State of Idaho and any other state make and enforce a law which abridges the First Amendment prohibiting the free exercise of religion? Because unconstitutional laws are not null and void in America, the Constitution is null and void.
The Hitching Post
Wedding Chapel is across the street from the Kootenai County Clerk’s office,
which issues marriage licenses. The Knapps, both in their 60s and who
themselves have been married for 47 years, began operating the wedding chapel
in 1989 as a ministry. They perform religious wedding ceremonies, which include
references to God, the invocation of God’s blessing on the union, brief remarks
drawn from the Bible designed to encourage the couple and help them to have a
successful marriage, and more. They also provide each couple they marry with a
CD that includes two sermons about marriage, and they recommend numerous
Christian books on the subject. The Knapps charge a small fee for their
services.
Coeur d’Alene officials told the Knapps beforehand that the couple would violate the city’s public accommodations statute once same-sex marriage became legal in Idaho if they declined to perform a same-sex ceremony at their chapel. On Friday, the Knapps respectfully declined such a ceremony and now face up to 180 days in jail and up to $1,000 in fines for each day they decline to perform that ceremony. The Knapps and you, have become slaves of the STATE!
“The city somehow expects ordained pastors to flip a switch and turn off all faithfulness to their God and their vows,” explained ADF Legal Counsel Jonathan Scruggs. “The U.S. Constitution as well as federal and state law clearly stand against that. The city cannot mandate across-the-board conformity to its interpretation of a city ordinance in utter disregard for the guaranteed freedoms Americans treasure in our society.”
Virginia McNulty Robinson, one of nearly 2,500 private attorneys allied with ADF, is serving as local counsel on behalf of the Knapps in Knapp v. City of Coeur d’Alene, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Idaho.

THE BOTTOM LINE:
What is it going to take for Free Americans to get off their
brains and take time away from the gossip of the Kardashian’s and stand up for
America and everything it use to stand for.
Do you really want tyranny, or are you just too lazy and preoccupied
with more important things, than the future of your kids and your country?
Come on, make a noise and fight now,
or you my friend will reap the chafe of oppression and subjugation to a
criminal lawless government run by a few intolerant immoral minorities.
And if you think this is going away, well it is not. Try these new cases going on all over America. Kentucky business owner told gay pride t-shirts trump his beliefs and Liberty Ridge Farms, located in New York, was recently fined $10,000 and ordered to pay two lesbians $1,500 each.
