Thoughts… Here are some answers to your questions I hope you will at least find them thought provoking: Q. Why are we afraid to stand up to our Government?
A. Because this Government is not ours, it’s theirs. Obama, Soros, Clintons, Bush, Comey Mueller, Rosenstein, Weissmann and thousands more. They own every agency, process and courthouse. You stand up alone and you will be cut down , NO mercy, NO rules at all. Remember Flynn, Ted Stevens, and Enron.
Q. When will the people decide enough is enough?
A. Sadly, when they have no other choice. I do not advocate or preach violence, but the reality is this cannot be solved without conflict. I say this because the people who are in power in this country, will never peacefully surrender that power, and I mean never.
Q. Why do people think socialism/communism works?
A. Various reasons: for the recipient voter class, it does work for now. And they have not seen any reason to believe that it will every stop working. The government employee/voter class see this in much the same way and yes that means your teachers, your firemen, your police too; all three levels of government employees. For others it’s seems that the propaganda in schools and media and church is working. So the short answer is for alot of people, socialism is great, at the expense of the producers. It seems that the only ones wise to this game are those of us who are being plundered.
Q. Why isn’t the Constitution followed?
A. Because it no longer exists. Even in the memory of the oldest people among us. A man that is eighty years old still has no clue about the type of freedom of the first generation in the US. The republic died well over 150 years ago. Why else would over half the states that formed the union wish to leave (so called civil war). So my answer is, no one anywhere can even imagine life in a constitutional republic. So, much to the dismay of Franklin, we did not keep it. I suppose it’s just too easy to vote other people’s property away from them and divide it up among ourselves.
Q. Why has it got to get worse before it gets better?
A. Apathy and fat, lazy, comfortable apathy.
Q. Why are people afraid to speak out?
A. For essentially the same reason as question #1. If you become a target, you will be prosecuted for “some” crime which you “have” committed.
Q. Why don’t people value freedom?
A. Americans no longer know what freedom is. Only a moral and religious people know what freedom is, and the USA is no longer that people. The godless think that freedom is about satisfying their sexuality or addictions without any consequences. Moreover, they also consider their dependency on others to be freedom, hence they want free healthcare, housing, etc. and other loot that can be plundered for them by the socialist regime.
Q. What will it take for you to fight?
A. Fighting in small numbers would be ineffective. The bottom line is this: the fight must be for real change, for real freedom, for real security; not just to replace one tyrant for another. Here are a few thoughts: what if 1,000 patriots in every state assembled themselves together and refused to obey or participate in any unconstitutional laws, taxation, regulation or judicial ruling. Now suppose that number would be 50,000 in every state. Let’s keep going with this. What if it were half a million people in every state. It’s not hard to see that all you need are numbers. But what you need long term will be more than numbers, because what you’re dealing with are killers, plain and simple. The men who are in power have proven that they will lie, cheat, steal, rob, rape and kill to keep that power. So fighting means killing, Wes, plain and simple. Let’s consider Washington and Madison and Paine. Did they talk and debate and resist to gain their freedom? To some degree, yes, they did. But ultimately they gained their freedom by killing the enemies of freedom and in sufficient numbers to make the most powerful and ruthless military on earth surrender. That’s a lot of dead bodies. So the final word is, it will take the numbers and the weapons and the determination, and most importantly, it will take the courage that only comes through a firm foundation in the principles of the Word of God.
