A Second American Revolution? Just my opinion
IX / XVIII / MMXII | pansgold

Posted on 09/18/2012 1:47:59 PM PDT by pansgold

My wife and I are life members to a couple gold prospecting clubs and here's my 2 cents worth about the price of gold being just one possible trigger for another revolution.

With all the people that have already invested in bullion gold this would be very serious.

One possible trigger for a second American Revolution would be another ban on the private ownership of gold except for jewelry and religious articles. This happened once before under FDR with the help of the congress.

Just think about that. Congress again bans citizen ownership of bullion gold and criminalizes private ownership. Then congress requires all that gold to be turned in to the federal government for melting.

The Federal Reserve will make sure you are paid for the gold with their near worthless inflated fiat money and your gold will be in the U.S. Treasury in bar form.

I tell you all now, this is a real possibility because of one thing that is going on today. The price of gold keeps going up.

When gold tops $2,000.00 per troy ounce expect a second gold rush. Expect everyone that owns a pan to enter all the National Monuments, National Parks, U.N. Heritage Lands, Private Property and Scenic Rivers and they’ll bring their sluices, gold pans, rocker boxes.

The federal government can’t control pot grows on these land right now. Imagine a hundred times the number of pot grower’s out prospecting for gold.

What do you think if the feds could do about a bunch of high school kids panning and digging? Shoot them? Jail them? They won’t have enough courts and jails or bureaucrats to enforce the regulations. Not to mention those who would protect their mining endeavors with force like the pot growers protect their grows.

Money is money and if someone unemployed can get just one ounce of gold per month they’d suddenly would be making over 20 grand a year.

Take warning, the government WILL NOT allow federal lands to become instant riches for the poor. They will confiscate gold from everyone. Then, Katie bar the door.

pansgold, and I do pan for gold.

The can steal everything they need to steal through stimuli.

There is no need to steal your gold while you are alive.

They'll have plenty of time to come and get it after the final solution.

Roosevelt wasn’t planning on killing all the gold-owning Kafirs.

The second time is always easier... just like lying.

FDR keept the poor down by preventing them from litterally digging themselves out of the depression at 20 bucks an ounce.

BTW, if you have Dish TV check out channel 212.

Glenn Beck’s new TV Channel called “The Blaze” from a new studio in Texas.

I own some molds, lead, ladle and electric furnace as well as a load of dies.

Brass in also a great investment and primers too.
