Research confirms that homosexuals molest children at a rate much higher than heterosexuals, and the mainstream homosexual culture commonly promotes sex with children. Homosexual leaders repeatedly argue for the freedom to engage in consensual sex with children, and blind surveys reveal a shockingly high number of homosexuals admit contact with minors. Indeed, the homosexual community is driving the world-wide campaign to lower the legal age of consent.

Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of "emergency". It was the tactic of Lenin, Hitler, and Mussolini. In the collectivist sweep over a dozen minor countries of Europe, it was the cry of men striving to get on horseback. And "emergency" became the justification of the subsequent steps. This technique of creating emergency is the greatest achievement that demagoguery attains.

Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
If your cause is just, if your principles are pure, and if your conduct is prudent, you need not fear the multitude of opposing hosts.
John Witherspoon, signer of the Declaration of Independence.
It is in the man of piety and inward principle that we may expect to find the uncorrupted patriot, the useful citizen, and the invincible soldier.
John Witherspoon, signer of the Declaration of Independence.
Duty fulfilled brings its own rewards. Expressions of appreciation and gratitude from people served are refreshing and encouraging. But the popularity of soldiers passes quickly when peril passes.
Paul B. Long, Citizen Soldiers of World War II, pg.158
