‘They Can’t Imprison All of Us’: Baptist College Vows to Resist Obamacare and Department of Justice

For the Obama administration, defending the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, looks like it may be becoming a game of legal whack-a-mole. One mandate gets declared constitutional, only to have another potentially problematic one spring up.

In this case, the mandate that’s involved is the mandate that employers provide contraception coverage for their employees. That mandate, released long before the first decision declared Obamacare’s mandate legal as a tax, has sparked more than a little resistance from the Catholic Church. And now, it has a lawsuit pending from one small but tenacious Baptist liberal arts college. From Fox News’ Todd Starnes:

 The president of Louisiana College said his school’s lawsuit against ObamaCare will go forward and vowed to defy the law even if the courts rule in favor of the Obama administration.

“If the government continues to say that we have to do this, we will not do it,” President Joe Aguillard told Fox News. “There’s going to be, in my opinion, a constitutional crisis. We’re not going to do it.”

Louisiana Colleges President, Joe Aguillard, Says His School Will Not Comply With Obama Administrations Contraception Mandate, Even If They Lose in Court

Joe Aguillard

Louisiana College, affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, filed suit against the federal government in February. They believe the administration’s mandate that religious employers provide abortion-inducing drugs, sterilization and contraception is unconstitutional.[...]

Louisiana Colleges President, Joe Aguillard, Says His School Will Not Comply With Obama Administrations Contraception Mandate, Even If They Lose in Court

Louisiana College

Aguillard said even if the courts rule against the college, there is no way they will comply with the law.

“I guess President Obama will have to come down to Louisiana College with whatever means they want to stop us,” he said. “We are going to have, as we say in French, a tete-a-tete.”

Aguillard said the battle with the federal government has united the 106-year-old college.

“They can’t imprison all of us,” he said. “They can’t fight all of us. We are greater than the Dept. of Justice.”

Louisiana College is not the only school to have done this. The evangelical Wheaton College has joined a similar lawsuit.

So would an entire college refusing to comply with the Federal government be, as Aguillard suggests, a constitutional crisis? Probably not, largely because constitutional crises tend to involve particular branches of government taking each other on, rather than private entities taking the government on. However, it would be a law enforcement crisis, and would probably produce highly damaging optics for the government. We can only imagine the kind of lurid coverage one could get out of seeing random college administrators being shoved into vans. However, based on previous precedent, it would be more likely to force the administration to issue waivers for the contraception mandate, not retract it for everyone.

Still, it’s an encouraging story for those who support religious freedom in this country.

    The only real criminals in obama’s mind are Christians. Any Christian who votes for obama is voting for the oppression of our religion. He will go after Christians with every bit of power he has, to make an example. If he had an arena and some lions, he would enjoy the show.

      100% agreement. Nobama is going to declare martial law. Make no mistake about that. He will suspend the election,and he will open the way for sharia law here in our Country. Our only hope is that Yahweh God will intervene. I fear He has turned his face away from us. It is said a people get the government they deserve. Look around and it does look like with nobama we have gotten what we deserve. When good men and women do nothing good, and they have not, we wind up losing our Country to tyranny.

      It would seem that if Reagan could use Federal Transportation Funding to strong arm states into adopting the 21 year old drinking age, then any and all federal funding (student loans) should be removed for non-compliance. And if the recent Courts decision regarding withholding of Medicaid funding is unconstitutional than Reagan’s move was similarly unconstitutional. The Federal government using money to get foreign countries, states and local governments to comply with their policies, laws and regulations goes back a long time.

      Why any Christian would vote for either one of these candidates is beyond me. God said that He wants to be our king, haven’t any of your heard of Saul? It started because Israel wanted to be like the pagan surrounding nations. The only vote I’m going to be giving is the one for Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords. Why vote for either one of these demons? They are BOTH crooks!

      ‘The paranoid’s interpretation of history is distinctly personal: decisive events are not taken as part of the stream of history, but as the consequences of someone’s will. Very often, the enemy is held to possess some especially effective source of power: he controls the press; he has unlimited funds; he has a new secret for influencing the mind (brainwashing); he has a special technique for seduction.’

      - Richard Hofstadter, “The Paranoid Style in American Politics”

      To any readers out there that are capable of rational thought: In these threads I present the imbecilic, paranoid fringe of American society. Complete with xenophobia, scarcely comprehensible writing, abject terror, and a distrust of any person that these neanderthals sense is more intelligent than them. The uneducated class can be whipped into a frenzy quite easily when confronted with the specter of intelligence.

      Ever since I was a kid, my favorite characters in the Bible were always Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. About 8 years ago, I started reading about the Von Trapps (the Sound of Music family), fearing that we were headed in that direction. A couple of years ago, I read Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, fearing that we could go beyond the Von Trapps to 1st century style martyrdom.

      While I still hope to leave this world via the Rapture, the possibility seems there that I may end up being killed by people controlled by the forces of darkness because of my belief in the Lord. All I hope for is if that time comes, I’ll be able to stand strong and not deny the Lord. I also hope that if it does happen, that perhaps someone would be moved to repent as a result. That’s what happened in the first centuries of Christianity. I remember in one case, the Romans would watch the Christians die with just peacefulness, that many converted on the spot to Christianity, and they volunteered to join their brothers and sisters on the arena floor, becoming martyrs themselves.

      New International Version 1984
      The Fall of Babylon

      1After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor. 2With a mighty voice he shouted:
      “Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!
      She has become a home for demons
      and a haunt for every evil spirit,
      a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.
      3For all the nations have drunk
      the maddening wine of her adulteries.
      The kings of the earth committed adultery with her,
      and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”
      4Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
      “Come out of her, my people,
      so that you will not share in her sins,
      so that you will not receive any of her plagues;
      5for her sins are piled up to heaven,
      and God has remembered her crimes.
      6Give back to her as she has given;
      pay her back double for what she has done.
      Mix her a double portion from her own cup.
      7Give her as much torture and grief
      as the glory and luxury she gave herself.
      In her heart she boasts,
      ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow,
      and I will never mourn.’

      8Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her:

      death, mourning and famine.

      She will be consumed by fire,

      for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

      9“When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her burning, they will weep and mourn over her.

      Conspiracy theory land is hilarious. It’s so hilarious to me how eager the right is to go to being scared of ultimate oppression and revolutions. It’s silly to me how eager they are to run and grab their gun in defense of a perceived threat.

      Let me guess, you’re all on board with Rush and his “Batman Bane/Bain Capital” conspiracy.

      For how scared you are of being oppressed, you don‘t seem too shy in saying you’re being forced to “condone sin.”

      Did your God ever tell people you should enact legislation to stop people who want to “sin”, from “sinning”?

      If I want to be a raging “sinner”, isn’t that my choice? Does God tell you to stop people from “sinning” by punishment of jail time or other laws to outlaw “sin.”

      Also, who decides what is “sin”? Your denomination might view something as “sin”, whereas another one doesn’t. Who is right? Who is wrong? Surely both sides can’t be right, but it is entirely possible that both sides are wrong.

      You take your personal walk with your savior, and try to force it on others and make it the law of the land.

      Your faith is no longer focused around your own salvation, but stopping others from living the life they want and then reaping the perceived punishment in the afterlife.

      You don’t want religious freedom, you want religious oppression over the people you disagree with.

      I’m not being disrespectful, but understand me here. When you use gov’t to make me participate in your system, because YOU THINK I have too much, or I need to SHARE more, or whatever, you are STEALING. Just because a majority of people decide something is OK, doesn’t mean it is. In this case, a majority DID NOT decide that. But even if they had it doesn’t matter. It is immoral to steal, no matter how justified you believe your cause. Especially when you are doing it in the name of “taking care of me.” My money is the result of my work. NO ONE ELSE’S, MINE. So by taking my money with force, against my will is either stealing or slavery. I don’t approve of any of this. I’m not being represented. The organized minority, constantly presented as a majority is running all over my God given (not gov’t given) supposedly gov’t protected right to keep what I busted my ass for in the name of taking care of the people. If every dollar I earn has 20% seized, whether for healthcare or Socialist security, then I am by definition at least a 20% slave to those receiving the benefit. Slavery is hardly charity. Just because you don‘t like how much someone has doesn’t make it right or moral. And using the might of gov‘t to take my money to give to old or infermed doesn’t make YOU charitable.
      Wanna help the “poor?”

      Your statement that they are worse off is often an incorrect assumption. Besides where is it written that those who do what is right exist to support those who do not. The Bible admonishes one to avoid becoming a legal surety for others. Being compelled to give away one’s resources of time and money so others have more time to have children while they watch cable TV and talk on their “free” cell phones is oppressive. Why should we change and loose when they don’t have to?
      True giving is voluntary.

    Yes, you can force doctors to leave the US. They are in fact more needed elsewhere, and will likely leave if the money, freedom, and presige are better overseas. Many will switch to other professions. But most will compromise and will allow the pedophobes to commit self-genocide.

    They don’t have to arrest anybody. To start with anyway.
    Start with seizing the bank accounts. All of them. The school‘s and the administrator’s personal accounts.
    Then seize the facility and auction it off.
    What do you think the four thousand new IRS agents are setting up to do?

      16,500 is the number I recall seeing — irrespective — Jefferson stated it is the RIGHT of the PEOPLE to nullify ANY ‘law’ — even when deemed ‘constitutional.‘ THAT is the People’s safeguard AGAINST tyrannical ‘enforcement’ tactics in a ‘republic.’ — wait — that was ‘suspended’ April 24, 1863 with General Orders 100 (unconstitutional) — forgot about that part — Thanks, Uncle Abe :-) — btw — most of the nappy-headed People are under the FALSE impression their ‘government’ is their government. — That ceased upon Woody Wilson’s SECOND inauguration (he was seated in CORPORATE capacity only, and has NOTHING to do with the Republic) – History BLOWS, don’t it?? :-) — BOTH Constitutions co-exist… the One is ‘under COLOR OF LAW,’ (admirality) – the other when properly invoked still TRUMPS – despite language and ‘rulings’ to the contrary.

    A drug that induces an abortion can not be prescribed by a doctor because no such drugs exist.

    There are old wives tales and different folk medicine procedures for inducing abortions but theyt are not a part of the medical services as covered under the Affordable Health Care Act.

    To suggest such a drug exists invalidates your entire argument.

    There is not a mandate that employers provide contraceptive services to their employees.

    You have made this up.
    They are protesting an imaginary concept.

    The rules implementing the Affordable Health Care Act state that a health care policy sold on the exchange must include contraceptive care. That’s it. Big Deal. It’s included in most policies sold now so this is not even a change. It is nothing new.

      You are either ill-informed, making assumptions, or being disingenuous. Your statement supposes that:
      A: Health Insurance plans will be able to maintain their current configurations and offerings.
      B: Health Insurance Companies will be able to still exist as an option AND be affordable to the masses.
      C: That the authors of the Bill and our Dear Leader intend them to.

      None of the above are true.

    The difference is, that would demand a Free people sit down for domination.

      No way can they arrest us all. Whats is the percentage of police officers in a town, any town. They are a miniscule group compared to all the people. If the churches support the colleges, then you are talking about a ton of people. Also, they don’t have the jail space (they have already filled them up by not executing people for capital crimes).

      If SCOTUS rules that the government CAN rule over religious freedom, I think you will be seeing a lot more trouble from that than Obamacare.
