The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell Kaye
from GA. The guy should have run for President.....

"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help
everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice,
avoid any more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior,
and secure the blessings of debt-free liberty to
ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more
time to ordain and establish some common sense
guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional. . .. We
hold these truths to be self-evident: that a whole lot of
people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they
require a Bill of No Rights."
ARTICLE I:
You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form
of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one
is guaranteeing anything.
ARTICLE II:
You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on
freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave
the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the
world is full of idiots, and probably always will be ... and like the rest
of us you need to simply
deal with it.
ARTICLE III:
You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a
screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful, do not
expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives
independently wealthy.
ARTICLE IV:
You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the
most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need,
but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation
of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation
of
another generation of professional couch potatoes.
ARTICLE V:
You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but
from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public
health care.
ARTICLE VI:
You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap,
rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest
of us want
to see you fry in the electric chair.
ARTICLE VII:
You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat
or
coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if
the
rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't
have the right to a big screen color TV, pool tables, weight rooms or a
life of leisure.
ARTICLE VIII:
You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a
job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to
take advantage of the opportunities of part time jobs, education and
vocational
training laid before you to make yourself useful.
ARTICLE IX:
You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you
have the right to PURSUE happiness--which by the way, is a lot easier if
you
are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic laws created by those of
you
who were confused by the Bill of Rights,
ARTICLE X:
This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from.
We welcome you here. English is our language and like the one you left
behind, we also have a culture. Learn it or go back to the country and
the living conditions you were fleeing."
