We have withered. We have lost our will. We have allowed our complacency to place our liberty at risk. Therefore, our liberty is fading
With time things wither away. We lose our youth, our friends, and our things. As with life, liberty has grown old, and is at risk of being forgotten and tossed aside.
Thus, is the reality of the cycles of time. In history we can see that systems of liberty always begin with courage and virtue, only to wither away under the assault of tyrants and complacency. The Roman Republic became an empire, and the Saxons gave way to King George and the Fabians.
Good article by Douglas V. Gibbs. Thanks for posting.
Who are the enemies of “liberty”?
The liar, deceiver, conman, progressive, collectivist, socialist, scumbag, totalitarian and their enablers. ID them.
DEPOPULATE them from the body politic. DEFUND their collectives, foreign and domestic.
It’s easy to
live - free - republic
Liberty is fading. I would agree.
I look at my young grand kids and I know they don’t know liberty is fading. There is no reason for them to find out it ever was while I am still breathing.
Congrats, disndat. Liberty isn’t fading in your house, your mind nor mine.
What we're facing is the same people have faced throughout history when a new regime comes to power, unconstrained by morals, willing to use any method at its disposal to maintain and increase its power over people.
We here in America are now ruled by centralized government out of D.C. All such centralized governments depend not upon the goodwill of its citizens, but upon obedience through fear and intimidation.
Our founders recognized the tools used by such unscrupulous usurpers of power, such as standing armies, militarization of police, limits to speaking out, limits of association, control of means, taxation, disarming the citizenry, and etc.
These tools are now available to those in power, or soon will be. And today's technology vastly increases the effectiveness of these tools.
Never has there been a time in the history of man, when it will be harder for a people to regain their liberty than today.
- virtue
- religion
- fixed laws
- educated electorate
- strong military defense
- low debt
Libtardism destroys all of the above.
For now that is, for now.
Time to take America back!
ID those who signed the Declaration of Dependence on “we the people”. Place limits on our largesse. DEPOPULATE politicians who pander to those foreign and those domestic with their hand in our pocket. It’s 2016. Time to stand on your own two feet, to be held accountable.
