The Beat San Francisco & What's A Gay Agenda

Can I ask a simple question? You may agree you may not.
When did I need to defend myself against just walking home?
When did what I did in my 7th grade class become part of defending my right to walk home?
Why is my walking home wrong?
Why is my jacket that has a hood for this rain today, something I have to think about as I walk home?
Why do I have to act 25 as I walk home when I am 17?
Why do I have to be perfect just to defend myself as I walk home?

Ok so it was more than just a simple question but I still wonder…

PLEASE: Know your shit… not be full of shit…

Know your shit and know how to back it up; The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a US man, and posted on the Internet. It’s funny, as well as informative:

Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination … End of debate.

I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Laws and how to follow them.

1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can’t I own Canadians?

2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of Menstrual uncleanliness – Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord – Lev.1:9 The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath.Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination, Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don’t agree. Can you settle this? Are there ‘degrees’ of abomination?

7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?

8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn’t we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I’m confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging.

Your adoring fan.

(It would be a damn shame if we couldn’t own a Canadian)

Daily Rant – Education

Just a little I did about education. I think this is how I will get back to doing a show all the time.

#walkingblack Post yours to show…

Arick West — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 06:13:47 +0000

With the MURDER of Trayvon Martin last month, I would ask anyone that thinks that it’s worth it to tell their story of walking while black (#walkingblack) here on face book or as a tweet with that hash tag. I am not just talking about while walking it can be driving or just being. The more people that can see what it’s like, maybe we can change some people minds, just maybe. And maybe with that not have another Trayvon!
And a video would be even better to show people that stereotypes have no place in this world today.

Trickle down… My Ass It has been proven not to work over and over

Arick West — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 19:19:54 +0000

George Bush Senior, George Bush Junior and every member of Congress today as proven trickle-down is bullshit! And let’s not even talk about every single major American economist that says it simply doesn’t work, it’s complete CRAP!
