AMENDMENT 8 U.S. CONSTITUTION
“EXCESSIVE BAIL SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED, NOR EXCESSIVE FINES IMPOSED, NOR CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT INFLICTED.”
So reads the amendment. Liberals in our society through the courts have changed the meaning in the minds of Americans by declaring capital punishment is “too cruel and unusual.” In the meantime, hundreds, if not thousands incarcerated are allowed to live the rest of their lives in comfort as a reward for heinous crimes committed. Think of the millions upon millions that have been spent supporting life that shouldn’t exist in a society of law abiding citizens. Because of DNA some have been found not guilty of the crime, which is fortunate. But the ones that are clearly guilty, as some terrorists, they should not be allowed to live on our dime. The following describes the horrible way humans were treated as criminals and why our forefathers designed a “new way” of addressing punishment. They didn’t rule out the death penalty – only what was referred to as “cruel and unusual.”
For most of recorded history, capital punishments were often deliberately painful. Severe historical penalties include the breaking wheel, boiling to death, flaying, disembowlment, crucification, impalement, crushing stoning, execution by burning, dismemberment, sawing, scaphism, or necklacing.
Impalement was a method of torture and execution whereby a person is pierced with a long stake. The penetration can be through the sides, from the rectum, or through the mouth. This method would lead through a slow and painful death. Often, the victim was hoisted into the air after partial impalement. Gravity and the victim’s own struggles would cause him to slide down the pole, especially if the pole were on a wagon carrying war prizes and prisoners. Death could take many days. Impalement was frequently practiced in Asia and Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Vlas 111 the Impaler, who learned the method of killing by impalement while staying in Constantinople as a prisoner, and Ivan the Terrible have passed into legend as major users of the method.
The breaking wheel was a torturous capital punishment device used in the Middle Ages and early modern times for public execution by cudgeling to death, especially in France and Germany. In France the condemned were placed on a cart-wheel with their limbs stretched out along the spokes over two sturdy wooden beams. The wheel was made to revolve slowly. Through the openings between the spokes, the executioner hit the victim with an iron hammer that could easily break the victim’s bones. This process was repeated several times per limb. Once his bones were broken, he was left on the wheels to die. It could take hours, even days, before shock and dehydration caused death. The punishment was abolished in Germany as late as 1827…end of this article…I don’t remember where I got this article from.
It is liberalism’s “feel good” attitude that has turned our country upside down. People held for vicious crimes are made the victims in some instances. Terrorists that behead our people are given Constitutional rights and free legal representation. Liberals in our society get judges of the same stripe to negate issues settled through the voting process. Animals that are deemed near extinction are favored over the lives and livelihood of thousands. Hundreds of agriculture lands in California are denied water because of a small fish or mouse.
Meanwhile thousands are placed out of work because of it. It’s important for liberals to save their pets but take pride in snuffing out the right of a human being to be born by abortion. What bothers me, is that this rotten government subsidizes Planned Parenthood by millions of dollars each year with our tax money. Now Democrats in Congress want to include subsidizing abortion through the Health bill. These liberals, progressives, communists, socialists, Marxists…add all other isms that are anti-family and anti-Constitution, well describes the despicable Democrats in Congress. The issue of abortion should have never been opined as being a “right” of a woman by the feds. This is still a State issue and the criminals in black robes should stay out and leave the people in states to decide whether to abort or not. Bythe way, as it stands now, if I, as a father, want my baby to be born, what about my right to choose – under the 14th Amendment – “Equal protection under the law”? Many in our society have no clue as to how much our Constitution has been subverted. Criminals run our three branches of government.
Liberals have destroyed the values and principles which have guided our people through the years. Communism has perfected this through the media, academia and the entertainment industry. I remember taking my 6 year-old grandson to see the movie E.T. In a scene where several kids are at the breakfast table and the mother of the house is busy fixing them breakfast and she walks by the table . One boy reaches out, grabs her by the butt. The audience, including many young kids broke out in laughter. Like today, the white male is shown as a buffoon in commercials. (social engineering) In the cinema women beat the shit out of males. And now women are on the verge of being able to serve aboard submarines. There are a lot of sexual assaults, pregnancies, abortions going on that the media is not reporting. All this is accomplished because of liberals in our society. Liberal has become a bad word in our society and people like Hillary have declared publicly that she is a progressive. It all means the same, these people are the ones twho are destroying our country to no end.
Roe v. Wade, 1972:
”The Constitutionally implied right to privacy protects a woman’s choice in matters of abortion.”
Norma McCorvey sought an abortion in Texas, but was denied under state law. The Court struck down that law, on grounds that it unconstitutionally restricted the woman’s right to choose. The opinion set forth guidelines for state abortion regulations; states could restrict a woman’s right to choose only in the later stages of the pregnancy. Later modified but not over-ruled, the decision stands as one of the Court’s most controversial. (Oak Hill publishing Company)
Abortion is plain infanticide, a crime against nature. Unless life is threatened, the human specie should be allowed to continue, and if need be put up for adoption instead of aborting.

Please visit my other web site. It has my bio full of childhood stories while living in the barrios of Phoenix, Arizona until rescued by McHale’s Navy in 1954. The tales I relate are so far out that I end the story with the following: “Humor is a laxative for a troubled mind.” You decide. The web is www.trejobarrio.com.
