You might start the fight…but we sure will finish it .. By a Soldier, LT.
Save America Foundation ^ | January 15, 2013 | Fred Brownbill

Posted on 01/15/2013 6:03:42 AM PST by iontheball

I am a soldier. I know what war looks like, what it sounds like, smells like, what it feels like in my soul.

I stand today in the twilight of my nation’s grace, looking into the darkness of impending war.

My sleep is troubled, knowing what awaits, yet the ignorant and the ‘true believers’ sleep easily in their delusions, and I am saddened by it.

Q. Can anything less than a military force carry the Stamp Act into execution?

A. I do not see how a military force can be applied to that purpose.

Q. Why may it not?

A. Suppose a military force sent into America; they will find nobody in arms; what are they then to do? They cannot force a man to take stamps who chooses to do without them. They will not find a rebellion; they may indeed make one.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends and Freepers All, THIS is an absolutely MUST READ. Copy and send to everyone you know. This is truth personified in a way I have not quite seen until now.
May G-d bless The United States of America.

I hope you’re right. Sadly, in my past three decades I’ve seen so many military “leaders” who are totally uneducated on the Constitution they swore an Oath to defend and protect...I wonder what tiny fraction of officers and enlisted we have left in (and out) of the services who even understand their primary obligation as a member of the US military, which is to obey the words of that Oath.

I fear that the majority of uniformed service members will soon disgrace themselves and their flag by obeying a directive to defy their Oath.

While I agree this is most definitely a must read, at the same time I feel parts of it are very close to borderline threats of murder of innocents, though I know it is not.

My point being, this is exactly the kind of thing to be used against this right thinking man to take away his liberty to keep arms under Obama's new laws.

I say, take care with what you put on the net. It will be used against you at the worst time if it can be.

I will show no quarter to a group of people who would round up 30 Million Americans without a second thought.

Whenever a Communist revolution happens 10% is murdered EVERY SINGLE TIME!

That is kind of B.S. my family left Germany to avoid. I will not let that happen here.

And Passive resistance isn't going to work when they haul you away.

We shouldn't enjoy killing, but when done righteously, it's just a chore, like any other.

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. Remember, O L-RD, the children of Edom

in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Raze it, raze it, even to the foundation. O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed;

happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth your little ones against the stones.

Great read. Thanks for posting.

Like the man said, “Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway.”

Ahhh....but this is what he writes, and many of these people are not the enemy, but simply innocent Americans who have !st amendment rights like you and I.

I do not care why you took that job with the government, or why you continue to hold it. I only know that you have become Judas and sold yourself to an oppressive state - your government office buildings and vehicles are part of the battlefield, and as a soldier I shall act accordingly.

I do not care why, as a journalist, you choose to spin and corrupt the news, rather than report the plain truth and let the people judge for themselves. I only know that you have violated the public trust in the most vile and seditious manner, and thus your homes, offices, studios, vehicles, and any other place you may find yourself are part of the battlefield, and as a soldier I shall act accordingly.

I do not care why you signed that union card. I only know that you pay dues to a communist organization which conducts treasonous works against my Republic daily – and so your union hall and your work-sites are part of the battlefield, and as a soldier I shall act accordingly.

There’s a lot more Fred Brownbill’s in this country than the left can imagine.

I was just remarking to someone yesterday. Throughout history there has always been some bastard who thinks he has to go to war. It is always men who would rather be at peace and free and didn’t start the war who finish it. Maybe it is the outrage of having their peace and freedom destroyed by some greedy stupid bastard who can’t work and play well with others.

I’m ready to get our peace and freedom back just any time from now. I think it had better happen soon while we are still able. I’m ready to get rid of the greedy bastard who is bend on destroying our peace and freedom.

This is true. However, to your former point, he could be interpreted to mean the word “battlefield” is being used metaphorically. e.g. posting flyers at “the battlefield”.

Regarding your latter point, it is why a lot of us don’t pen this stuff ourselves but post someone elses words on facebook and say “this is an interesting read”. After all, one can post something they disagree with and say it is an interesting read.

As my wife likes to say, “interesting” is an interesting word. :-)

I think he is saying they are not innocent. Similar to the people who worked in the back offices for Goebbels. It is why we permitted ourselves to bomb Berlin.

“Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself”

LITANY AGAINST FEAR
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
~Frank Herbert

Live by fear and you lose. Silence is aquiescence to evil.

No! Did you wathc the links I gave you?

Here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlN2t0oERHk

Those people he talks about are either apathetic to what the Communists will do. Or will help them.

Since you feel that all Americans are inherently innocents. Let me show you the inhertanily innocent Germans too.

MY relations in the 30's DID NOTHING to stop them and many non Jews egged them on or simply didn't care.

Therefore, as much as my soul laments against the harsh truth before me, I make this declaration to my enemies who press me into this battle, that none shall be able to afterwards say “I did not know, you did not warn me”

"Interesting" indeed!
