if the majority of it's citizens do not themselves feel the weight of the oppressor's boot, the rebels will be immediately and easily marginalized and defeated as mere malcontents, and will not garner the support of their fellow citizens. This sad fact cannot be overstated.

The fact is we have absolutely no means of reliably mneasuring how oppressed people feel and what the distribution of that feeling of oppression really is. Elections provide some measure of this but sadly the vote fraud that is so widespread in many urban states makes accurate measurement impossible.

Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

All too true. As part of my ongoing analysis into the mindset of my fellow Americans, I use everyday conversation with friends, associates, neighbors and people I meet as a guide. Letters to the editor in newspapers also help provide some insight as well. Overall, I have to agree with the consensus that the United States has never been more internally divided on the question of "What is Freedom?" since the first Civil War.

I truly fear for the future of our blessed Republic, and for the lives and fortunes of my family and the others I love.
