Phil Beaver seeks to collaborate on the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. The comment box below invites readers to write.

"Civic" refers to citizens who collaborate for responsible freedom more than for the city.

A personal paraphrase of the June 21, 1788 preamble:  We the civic citizens of nine of the thirteen United States commit-to and trust-in the purpose and goals stated herein --- integrity, justice, collaboration, defense, prosperity, liberty, and perpetuity --- and to cultivate limited services to us by the USA. I am willing to collaborate with other citizens on this paraphrase, yet may settle on and would always preserve the original text.   

   

Today’s thought, G.E. Dean (Psalms 34:4 CJB), The Advocate, January 2, 2018, page 5B.

“I sought Adonai, and he answered me; he rescued me from everything I feared.”

Dean says, “Praise God. He is faithful. He does what he says he will do.”

According to David or to Dean or to God? Among thinkers like David and Dean, does God have an opinion? Does God have a voice in the God wars?

  

Letters

Robert Hebert an accomplished economist (Brady) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_43720604-f557-11e7-8cec-6f1913d49b66.html)

I appreciate the introduction to Hebert as a great economist and the defense of opinions I share. So far, it seems my third vote for Donald Trump is un-threatened.

I do want him to pay more attention to my hopes:  widespread appreciation for individuals who trust-in and commit-to the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. Their group is among the citizens who collaborate for mutual, comprehensive safety and security. They are among the citizens who accept their private authority to behave for responsible freedom.

A civic culture (Brown) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_430506e6-f55a-11e7-8de9-9721e1ef5f45.html)

I like Mr. Brown's suggestion, but expect the people will soon create a supermajority that collaborates to establish and maintain a civic culture.

“Civic” refers to citizens using the agreement that is offered by the preamble to the constitution for the USA to collaborate for mutual, comprehensive safety and security; to discover and use the-objective-truth to establish justice.

In a civic culture, dissidents may approve because they discover that life is better with fidelity to the-objective-truth or because their harmful behavior was discovered under statutory justice. That is, laws and law enforcement based on the-objective-truth rather than dominant opinion.

Evolution has shown that the human individual is so physically and psychologically powerful that criminals and evils will not accept arbitrary laws. Each individual has the personal authority to behave for responsible freedom, and that authority cannot be abrogated. Neither God nor government will take the authority for an individual’s collaboration for civic morality.

To JT McQuitty: Is the agreement that is offered by the preamble to the constitution for the USA apolitical and areligious?

AMO style disruption by a teacher (AP) theadvocate.com/acadiana/news/education/article_6076f764-f610-11e7-921b-435a9cf6f4a1.html

To Steve Stillwell: Good comment.

In the video we observe the strategy of Alinsky-Marxist origination (AMO) combined with Barack Obama audacity (OFA), headquartered in Chicago and W. DC, as well as Together Baton Rouge, affiliate of an Alinsky foundation, Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), Chicago. See togetherbr.org/about. Gov. John Bel Edwards seems like a disruption-promoter.

The video shows a woman making an invited public comment before a civic board’s vote. Fans speak of freedom of speech. The board votes and the woman insists on repeating her claims, disrupting the civil order (the rule of law, which constrains liberal-democracy or social-democracy). A fan states that the superintendent could not even look at her: Why should he? The sergeant of arms executes his civic function by asking her to leave. Her disruption continues and escalates to an arrest.

Many people do not know Louisiana’s constitutional defense of the civic order; its freedom of expression clause carries responsibility for the consequences of the expression.

Just as an individual can’t freely yell “Fire!” in a crowd, an individual cannot prevail by disrupting a school board meeting. I hope this case will bring some civic morality to some Louisiana citizens’ voluntary subjugation, for example, to AMO, OFA, and their affiliates, such as Together Baton Rouge. I think Gov. John Bel Edwards’ political bantering and religious posturing with them is civic immorality.

As for national attention, I hope the consequence will lead to an amendment of the First Amendment to conform with Louisiana law. Let the two expression clauses, respecting speech and the press, have responsibility explicitly stated.

To Tyler Carr: Intentionally or not, you are ignoring the facts.

In the video, she had her say. Public comments came to an end. The board had a discussion, had a motion, a second, and a vote. The teacher restarted her comments out of order.

A civic citizen understands civic order whether they are American or not. By "civic" I mean citizens who collaborate for justice whether they are in public or in private; in the city or in the woods; in America or abroad; and so on.

Phil Beaver does not “know” the actual-reality. He trusts and is committed to the-objective-truth which can only be discovered. He is agent for A Civic People of the United States, a Louisiana, education non-profit corporation. See online at promotethepreamble.blogspot.com.
