May I please have your attention?
Attention, attention...
Ladies and Gentlemen, I wish to address you, those who
support a government that does not work for you, those
who are lying quietly while being raped...
A man tells you that you should put on these handcuffs,
and climb in the back of his van, he promises nothing
bad will happen, and that after a little while he will
let you go, and he will offer you anything you want,
aside from release, while you are cuffed. But he does
promise to let you go, after a little while...
A person is sitting in their van on the street corner,
offering candy and gifts in his van to all passing
children...
Why does this scenario make you think the person
offering to be handcuffed is a fool or the child that
accepts has bad parents but when it is the government
doing the same basic thing it is acceptable?
When the government says give up the right to bear arms,
how are they not like the man with the handcuffs, how
are they any better, how do they justify the people
giving up the right to fight tyranny that would be
sourced from them? They do it by telling you that they
are our government and these things could never happen
in the United States, they tell you that the government
is here to help, that they love you, they are your big
brother, in quite the Orwellian fashion. They expect you
to believe that you must give up this one thing, your
ability to fight back against them, in order for them to
protect you from bad people, they expect you to believe
that if you are stripped of the means to fight tyranny,
these same means will vanish from the earth, and not
even those that would victimize law abiding citizens
would have them. Only the government would have these
means, and they love you, so they would never turn them
on you, they love you so they would never oppress you,
except of course if you view taking the right to bear
arms away from individuals as oppression.
When they say give us your tax dollars (economic
freedom) and we will offer you health care and cash
assistance for free, how exactly is this different from
the man with candy? They tell us it is for the greater
good, that it is to help so many people, and they love
all the people, after all we are one big national
family, and everyone is their brother's keeper. They
proclaim it is the burden of the rich to pay for the
poor, and that individuals cannot be trusted to donate
to charity, so the government must take it with guns and
threats of prison, or in some cases, death. Every time
they utter taxpayers they mean fuel, and every time they
say government they mean inefficient machine, government
in their eyes is a machine that eats a quarter of the
lives of the average taxpaying citizen, for this fuel it
puts out maybe 1% of the input as output, the other 99%
is eaten by an inefficient machine. Taking candy from a
stranger is a bad idea, why is it a good idea for the
same mentality when it comes from your government,
often, oddly enough, at your own expense?
How do you represent having a line drawn?
There are four ways to draw your line, with your vote,
with your voice, with your dollars and finally with your
weapons, there are no other ways, all the rest is
compliance. In the past decade, and even further if you
are astute to this country's history, the vote is a
failed tactic, you do not have to fool all the people
all the time, just 3% more than the other major party
candidate, and either way it does not matter as they are
fighting the same war against we the people, the war for
power. Next you can vocalize, but as a very close friend
said, "when you scream at the deaf, you just lose your
voice," and there is no way to make those that must
listen hear you, as their ears are full of ash, provided
astutely by MSM, or are deliberately ignoring you, in
the case of public servants. Tax protest, real protest,
which is not paying you taxes on the individual basis is
given the consequence of massive fines if not
imprisonment, despite being what was supposed to be a
completely voluntary program. The only way tax protest
will work is if the entire state you reside in refuses
to accept dollar one from, or remit dollar one to the
federal government. I find this an eloquent plan that
will most likely never pan out, because if the precedent
is set with the federal government, the state may be
subject to it next, and they would not like it too much.
It is the idea that one should never make it possible to
be shot with ones own gun that will keep this from
happening, unless your state legislators are very short
sighted. Lastly is violent revolt, a possibility that
many are not too happy to consider, but in the sense of
realism, even if every other route were possible,
violence would always be the defining moment, whenever
liberty is at stake, life will have to be lost, this is
something Thomas Jefferson understood, and is quoted,
"As our enemies have found we can reason like men, so
now let us show them we can fight like men also."
So now, what is it, does slavery equal freedom, does
freedom equal slavery or is it that freedom equals
freedom and slavery equals slavery? There is a well
known expression that freedom is not free, this is
absolutely true, it comes from many sources but as to
its meaning, it does not mean to send your children off
to another country to fight and maybe die, it means that
you may be inconvenienced in order to preserve the
freedom that was offered by the authors of the
Constitution. You may be inconvenienced, in order to
repay the debt in blood that was paid at the end of the
18th century in order to preserve a nation founded on
the principles of liberty and freedom for all. You may
be inconvenienced; you may spill your blood to nourish
the tree of liberty, forging the same blood debt on
future generations to preserve the freedom for their
future generations.
