Ya, I've been wondering lately how close we are to Peak Kickstarter.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

True patriots know that anything federal is bad. Each state should have its own design of playing cards.

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

I was born in Miami, Fl. My father escaped from Cuba when he was 9 years old, in 1959. My mother is Irish American. I work in construction doing metal framing and drywall. My brother and I realized that playing cards represent countries and we were playing with the French cards, so we created a deck for these United States. I am grateful to be born in these United States and I will attempt to do my Duty as an American, to preserve Liberty for my children and yours, and for our future grandchildren(God willing).


I thought just as you did, I even laughed, but to be totally fair, its not his fault. Or at least one would hope not. It's others that have influenced him, and raised him. Or maybe not raised. Felt bad about laughing at him.....most construction workers are hard working people.

That's hilarious. It's clearly a joke. Someone needs to start a kick starter for the My Little Pony Abattoir.

Well when you're sitting in your bunker with the rest of the militia, wearing your tinfoil hats, waiting for Obama's stormtroopers in their black helicopters to come in and take your guns, you wouldn't want to play with anything but patriot cards.........


If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways



And a faith suit... given that the USA was founded as a country of religious freedom to believe whatever you want (or to not believe whatever you want)... not a country where "there is one god, creator of life and liberty" as the kickstarter creator seems to think...

Also, only shipping within the USA - what about all the brave Americans who are occupying other countries teaching them the values of freedom? Can't they order some Americards?

Yeaahhhhh....

(Faith) There is ONE God, creator of life and liberty.....(This suit replaces the Spades suit)

(Declaration) All men are created equal... with unalienable rights. We pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.....(This suit replaces the Diamonds suit)

(Revolution) When abuses of government become destructive and intolerable free people have the right, the duty to end those abuses. Government is force like fire... by nature it will spread and grow, it is why revolution is infinite.....(This suit replaces the Hearts suit)

(Unity) When men possess their unalienable rights they become exceptional individuals. United with others, under the same principles, they become an exceptional people.....(This suit replaces the Clubs suit)

The Official American Standard Playing Cards has taken the liberty of naming a pair of cards. The ten, deuce(10,2) is known as the Doyle Brunson. With no disrespect to Mr Brunson, it is now called the "DONT TREAD ON ME". This will ultimately be decided by the People, we'll see if it sticks. Maybe Mr Brunson would like to put his name on it (the Doyle Brunson DONT TREAD ON ME).


The good thing about it at least is it is sort of educational... a bit... if you read them all.

Come up with a game and name it, it might stick. Instead of saying "go fish" we say "Catch a Liberty". What will "black jack" be called? What's a jack? It does not sound American to me.

At least the americards dude only got one guy to pledge $15 out of $10,000 needed(presumably on a lost bet or as a joke or summat).
It seems there is a limit to even 'Muricaaa! stupidity.
