Democrats Compost Human Bodies - Soylent Green is Next

We are at War with Globalism

Learn to eat bugs

Obey your Masters

And Die

A bill to allow composting of human bodies as an alternative to burial or cremation received overwhelming approval in the Delaware state House on Tuesday.

The measure passed the House on a 37-2 vote and now goes to the Senate. It authorizes a practice called “natural organic reduction,” often referred to as “human composting.”

Chief sponsor Rep. Sean Lynn, a Dover Democrat, called the practice a “gentle, respectful, environmentally friendly death care option.”

“Natural organic reduction is a sophisticated process that applies cutting-edge technology and engineering to accelerate the natural process of turning a body into soil,” he said.

Testing in other states that allow the practice found the resulting soil to be “high quality and regenerative,” Lynn added.

Human composting is currently legal in Washington, Colorado, Oregon, Vermont, California, New York and Nevada, and legislation has been introduced in more than a dozen other states, according to Recompose, a Seattle-based company that offers the service and advocates for its expanded use.

Trump kicks Cruz in the teeth - It's time to unify against the Hildebeast

It's Finally Over

The Donald Has Landed

Trump Delivers a Body Blow to Cruz and Kasich

By Gary;

The Cruz campaign is dead, but the corpse is still twitching a bit.

Cruz is insane to try and claim the GOP nomination when he racks up "massive" numbers like 14% in New York, 11% in Connecticut, 10% in Rhode Island or 15% in Delaware.

To win the November election the GOP nominee will have to carry states that have voted Democrat in the past, and Cruz can't even win a GOP primary in those key states.

Sorry Ted, but carrying the Bible Belt won't cut it in November. But actually Cruz even lost the evangelicals to Trump.

Cruz supporters and many talking heads on TV have trashed these northeastern states that voted this last week. They forget that in 2014 New York and these other states sent 23 Republican Congressmen to Washington. They have a major roll in GOP politics and they have rejected Cruz and Kasich in landslide numbers.

It is not 1840. Those days are gone. In this modern age a candidate who lost most of the elections cannot win the nomination.

I don't care what happens in Indiana. It's over.

Playing Taps for Ted

The Donald opened the can on
open borders Ted Cruz.
