No joke: South Carolina now requires ’subversives’ to register

[Rick Myers]

From the 'we can't make this shit up' file, comes a South Carolina law requiring you to 'register' if you plan to
overthrow the US or South Carolina AND pay a $5.00 fee!!!

Can the South Carolina gov't please send a copy of the required forms to: Todd Palin, First Dude, Waslia, AK??

edited to add: Here's a PDF of the actual form!!!

1. Howzabout us secessionists in the great white north??? And

what about them Texans??

[texastoast]

10. No shit

We need that law here.

[rfranklin]

20. Fun project kids! Fill it out with your favorite wingnut and file it!

Only costs $5!

[cutlassmama]

37. he! Great idear!

[wtbymark]

2. What's the penalty?

I think Exxon, GE and BoA are already guilty

[galileoreloaded]

38. Penalty?? They wear that s$^t like a badge down there............n.t

[BrklynLiberal]

3. That is right up there with the toll booth in the desert in "Blazing Saddles".

[Rick Myers]

4. Somebody's gonna have'ta go back to town and git a shitload a dimes!

The William J. LePedomane Memorial Thruway

[BrklynLiberal]

5. One of the best movies EVER made!! I could watch it over; and over and over and over

[Rick Myers]

9. My wife has a VHS copy of Blazing Saddles, but

it is SIGNED "Janet, Thanks for everything! Mel Brooks!" She worked with him on some films.
Needless to say, we know the movie by heart!!!

[BrklynLiberal]

12. Wow! What a thrill that must have been!

He is literally a genius.

Did you see him on TV when they played part of the Awards at the Kennedy Center? He was great...but you could see he was saddened at not having Anne Bancroft there with him.

[Rick Myers]

14. Losing Anne has really aged him, but he looked great that night

Janet still talks to his 'right hand' girl at Brooksfilms. Truly a genius!!!

That's probably the most 'quoted' film in history! The only other comedy to
come close would be "Dr. Strangelove!"

[Ken Burch]

17. Suddenly, I have the image of what would be the greatest "pitch" in Hollywood history!

"It's 'Blazing Saddles' meets 'Dr. Strangelove'!".

[Rick Myers]

19. That's a great idea!!!

:thumbsup:

Lili Von Shtupp: Here I stand, the goddess of desire / Set men on fire / I have this power. / Morning, noon, and night, it's dwink and dancing / Some quick womancing / And then a shower. / Stage door Johnnies constantly suwwound me / They always hound me, with one wequest. / Who can satisfy their lustful habits? / I'm not a wabbit. / I need some we...

Townspeople: The town saloon was always lively / But never nasty or obscene / Behind the bar stood Emil Johnson / He always kept things nice and clean

Jim: Well, it got so that every piss-ant prairie punk who thought he could shoot a gun would ride into town to try out the Waco Kid. I must have killed more men than Cecil B. DeMille. It got pretty gritty. I started to hear the word "draw" in my sleep. Then one day, I was just walking down the street when I heard a voice behind me say, "Reach for it, mister!" I spun around... and there I was, face-to-face with a six-year old kid. Well, I just threw my guns down and walked away. Little bastard shot me in the ass. So I limped to the nearest saloon, crawled inside a whiskey bottle, and I've been there ever since.
Lili Von Shtupp: Tell me, schatze, is it twue what they say about the way you people are... gifted?

Lili Von Shtupp: Oh, it's twue. It's twue. It's twue, it's twue!

Jim: Oh, boys! Lookee what I got heyuh.
Bart: Hey, where the white women at?
Hedley Lamarr: Sign here.

Jim: Why, Rhett! How many times have I told you to wash up after weekly cross burning?

Jim: See, it's coming off.

Bart: And now, for my next impression... Jesse Owens.

Bart: Well, don't just stand there looking stupid, grasping your hands in pain. How about a round of applause for The Waco Kid?
Adolf Hitler: They lose me right after the bunker scene.
Buddy Bizarre: What in the hell do you think you're doing here? This is a closed set.
Taggart: Piss on you! I'm working for Mel Brooks.

Buddy Bizarre: Not in the face!

Buddy Bizarre: Thank you...
Hedley Lamarr: Men, you are about to embark on a great crusade to stamp out runaway decency in the west. Now you men will only be risking your lives, whilst I will be risking an almost certain Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
Jim: I'm rapidly becoming a big underground success in this town.
Jim: See? In another twenty-five years, you'll be able to shake their hands in broad daylight.
Taggart: I hired you people to try to get a little track laid, not to jump around like a bunch of Kansas City faggots.
Hedley Lamarr: Unfortunately there is one thing standing between me and that property: the rightful owners.
Hedley Lamarr: Qualifications?
Applicant: Rape, murder, arson, and rape.
Hedley Lamarr: You said rape twice.
Applicant: I like rape.
Bart: Now, I suppose you're all wondering just what in the heck you're doing out here in the middle of a prairie in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night.
Crowd: You bet your ass.
Bart: I'm hip.
Hedley Lamarr: My mind is aglow with whirling, transient nodes of thought careening through a cosmic vapor of invention.
Taggart: Ditto.
Hedley Lamarr: "Ditto?" "Ditto," you provincial putz?
Bart: What's your name?
Jim: Well, my name is Jim, but most people call me... Jim.

There is much more at the site.

31. Obama should have remembered this line

"What did you expect? "Welcome, sonny"? "Make yourself at home"? "Marry my daughter"? You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons."

It is so appropriate for these days.

[BrklynLiberal]

43. lololol

[Rick Myers]

35. Here she comes, Miss South Carolina...

"I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation dont have maps and that I believe our education like such as South Africa and the Iraq, and everywhere, such as, and I believe that they should our education over here in the US, should help the US, or should help South Africa and help the Iraq and the Asian countries so that we will be able to build out our future for us."

[xxqqqzme]

45. my favorite

Charlie: They said you was hung.
Bart: And they was right.




I nearly fell out of my seat, lo, those many years ago.....

[wroberts189]

33. Haha ..favorite one... "Where the white women at? " nt

[damntexdem]

6. Hmm, we need that law in Texas: so we could register Gov. Perry.

Of course it would be better to just vote him out; but that may very well not happen.

[laughingliberal]

7. Here's an interesting section:

By "subversive organization," the law means "every corporation, society, association, camp, group, bund, political party, assembly, body or organization, composed of two or more persons, which directly or indirectly advocates, advises, teaches or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States of this State."

http://rawstory.com/2010/02/south-carolinas-subversive-activities-registration-act-force/

Would this not seem to apply to corporations who use money to seek to 'control' the United States government, 'directly or indirectly?'

[Rick Myers]

11. Good point! It does say 'corporation' in the bill!!!

I think I'm gonna send the form to a few places!!!

[laughingliberal]

22. It does, indeed, say that.

And the wording about seeking to 'control' seems to apply. I love that! Send the forms to mega corps who are doing business in SC.

[Wizard777]

41. So now to VOTE in SC. You must be a registered Voter AND registered subversive.

You still might be arrested for the subversive activity of exercising control over the government. :wow:

[Mojambo]

8. Hahahahahahaha! n/t

[Ken Burch]

13. Hopefully, there'll be progressive shops in S.C.

That will have signs saying "10% off for all registered subversives".

BTW...do you have to register if you just want to go to the capitol building in Columbia and pull the Confederate flag down?

[Rick Myers]

15. If you intend on doing it with a friend, you need to register!

By yourself, no paperwork required.

[Ken Burch]

16. Hey...that could be a great slogan.

"Be Subversive With A Friend!"

[Rick Myers]

18. From the Editor of SC's Fitnews blog:

Since 1860, South Carolina has been known to be:

Too small for a republic, too large for an asylum.

I hold now that they are NOT too large to be an asylum.

[The_Commonist]

21. And this, from the first state to actually secede from the Union!

Rich in irony...

[booley]

23. I almost want to send them my plan for world domination

using an army of atomic super squirrels and my cyborg cat as general.

but i',m afraid they will think i was serious and put me on the no-fly list

[Rick Myers]

26. Never give up the secret squirrel plan!!!

[Art_from_Ark]

36. This guy would be perfect for the job

[salin]

25. Is it subversive to leave the security of the state up in the air while the gov. frolics

in Argentina - out of communication with all state officials - and leaving no contingency for anyone else (ala the Lt Gov) to be able to make decisions/actions if a disaster occurred while gone?

[Corgigal]

27. Ooooh Ooooh

I so want to do this. I live in stupid SC and I bet my teenagers might then think I'm cool. Might have to make some stuff up but I'm sure the SC officials will believe it all. Wish me luck.

[Rick Myers]

32. Good luck...

[noamnety]

28. I just asked my husband if I could have 5 dollars

and he said no. :(

[tblue37]

29. So miss South Carolina was not an outlier after all? nt

[dalaigh lllama]

30. You ought to send this to Stephen Colbert --native South Carolinian

He could have some real fun with it.

[jimlup]

34. ROFL

:rofl:

[steve2470]

39. This is beyond brain dead nt

[mmonk]

40. As if someone who was planning to would sign up and give

themselves away. However, the Tea Party members are probably dumb enough to sign up. They are ignorant and loud and proud of it enough.

[CanonRay]

42. Is it $2.50 if I just want to overthrow S. Carolina?

How much for them to secede again?

[L0oniX]

44. So I guess the Tea party should be signing up any time now.

Seriously ...is there something in the water or is it just plain ol stupid?

I guess this example was just the tip of the iceberg...

[Toasterlad]

46. Oh, South Carolina. Is There Anything You WON'T Do to Embarrass Yourself?
