Alright, I’ll spell it out for the slow one.

The sentence after this one should have made the meaning of “MY” clear. I said it wasn’t MY country. As in: I don’t own the country.

I’ll stand by this one:

‘If the ignorant masses lose their gun rights to vote for a “cool black man” then as far as I’m concerned they deserve to.’

and this one:

“Why would I risk a toenail for a bunch of fools?”

If the crowds want to be slaves then so be it. WHY on earth would I want to risk something for these people, “Americans”, or not? I’m still not convinced it’s lost cause, but I am starting to wonder.

“I’d risk my life in a heartbeat for freedom.”

‘nuff said.

“For socialism/communism/slavery, nothing...”

Again, if the dolt masses want “free stuff” over freedom then that’s what they’ll get. I’ll take care of mine and I won’t fuss with the idiots who are comfy sitting back and letting the country fall to pieces.

Oh, and I’ll lay off the caffeine if you’ll venture out from your double-wide and scotch bottle for some fresh air, now and then.

“No the sheeple will be sheeple.”

Back in the day I’d have been with those fired-up patriots ready to kick King George’s *ss!

Even then, a third of the country didn’t want the revolution.

They had the same arguments the “sit and wait”, pansy-*ss conservatives have now.

It’s not hard to see. Just look at how well the left is organized and just how active they are.

“Oh, but we fat, dumb, and happy conservatives don’t do that stuff—that’s for the left—we’re above all that nonsense.”

Well, some “high-roads” end with a cliff and a thousand foot fall.

The left has sword in hand and is slashing at our bellies, inches from disemboweling, and we’re gonna play nice with the nice wittle leftists and kiss the *sses of the minorities and to hell with our principles!

Sorry, I was raised by my Grandparents and I am old-fashioned, I guess.

If someone is attacking me and mine I’m gonna go at them like rabid wolf until they cease and desist, or they reach room temperature.

Oh, yeah, I have a lot of faith in these types on the right.

Makin’ ‘ol McCain proud.

Yeah, elections have done us a whole lotta good recently. Let’s wait for another. The mob won’t let us down this time, no worries.

Remember how Americans reacted to congress the last time the illegal immigration issue came up?

Where’s that reaction now? They’re doing much worse now and most would appear to have hit the bottle of qualudes lest they strain themselves.

THAT’S the VERY LEAST I want to see, since I’ve been asked.

I don’t want blood in the streets. But a whole lotta pissed-off, wild-eyed Americans making themselves heard, in every way they can think of would be nice about now.

Isolated incidents. Both of which may certainly be classified as nut jobs.

Randy Weaver a 'nut job?'

Do you know the ultimate outcome of this case?

Who is in charge of the clattering train?
The axles creak and the couplings strain;
And the pace is hot,and the points are near,
And Sleep has deadened the driver's ear;
And the signals flash through the night in vain,
For Death is in charge of the clattering train."
qutoed by Winston Churchill in "The History of WWII", Volume 1, The Gathering Storm, pg 123.

As for passive resistance

I am going to start with flying these flags along with my American flag until America is once again secure.... Or until I am hauled to room 101.

or this one

'I can’t believe I’m having to defend this position on Free Republic!

I get you now. And I agree with you.

I think most do. Even those that are 'attacking' you on FR.

Socialism will not stop on its own. It must be stopped! I loved your point that the Founders are dead and that Reagan is dead.

This is our time!

Washington isn't here for us. Reagan in not here for us.

I have registered for Tea Parties. I will fly revolutionary flags at my home so that other like minded people will know they are not alone and will hopefully take some courage. I will speak out at work and to my neighbors. etc, etc, etc.

I have, lots of money the government put out for priceless lives. No doubt a tragedy. Not minimalizing or trivializing the event, but the guy was discovered at an aryan rally. Not to sound squishy, but that alone makes me question him. I don’t trust the Black Panthers, La Raza, or any of them. Why should I trust a racially motivated group even thought its white and I’m white? Maybe I’m going too simplistic about it, but it was a bad deal all around. And yes I do put more blame on the government.

Those are all great ways too help, much agreed. I think what most of it was that got to me though is his accusations that we are not “fighting back.” Assuming ALL Americans are fat, lazy, and happy and that if push came to shove we would do nothing about it. Now I will give him credit in his saying that he hasn’t given up yet. Most of what he was giving out though was a doom and gloom. The Great Generation was not the Great Generation until they were pushed.

His wife had her head blown off by BATF agent while holding their baby and If I remember correctly his son was killed by other BATF agents, but that wasn't so bad because he attended a Ayran rally?

Weaver had a shotgun that was measured ~2 inches short. Govt wanted Weaver to inform on acquaintances. When he wouldn't they came after him.

You have bought the MSM/govt version of the events. All convictions were reversed on appeal against Weaver. He did NOTHING wrong.

While the BATF was convicted of excessive force or something. But guess whose wife and son were dead?

I agree with the general notions expressed here regarding our gun freedoms. Yet, we have a leftist government with a real hatred for conservatives. While our military in large part may defy the government, many won’t. And these leftist gremlins have control of our tactical nukes! So if a few states decide they won’t go along with our precious president, William Ayres may just get his wish for twenty five million “troublesome” Americans to be killed via nuclear bombs. That’s why Obama acts so smug and confident. He thinks he could gin up support for such a holocaust and actually get folks to go along with it.

He wants us to fight back.

I am frustrated. Look at your neighbors. Do they care that America is socialists now, heading toward communism?

Did not say that. I said he was a nutjob, nothing more.

“When he wouldn’t they came after him.”

Yes they did.

“You have bought the MSM/govt version of the events.”

Thanks for the kind words. /s

“While the BATF was convicted of excessive force or something. But guess whose wife and son were dead?”

I know the story, but thanks for the refresher, truly. No sarcasm.

No doubt, totally agree. I just think there are more of us out there than he realizes. I can speak for myself, my dad, his next door and across the street neighbors, my best friend, alot of his buddies, two of my uncles I know, and several of the military guys in my neighborhood. Thats just who I know. And this is a liberal area of Texas. Good luck to the Feds in my hometown, or Alabama, Montana, or just about any other red states.

“I think down deep his attempt is to inspire.”

Thank you, sir.

Deep down I want to make people think—wake up.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlkPkJInUmU

In this video Yuri Bezmenov details how the hard left creates disorientation, confusion, apathy, and a basic feeling of impotence in the masses.

Something eerily similar is happening to Americans right now.

THIS is why I am critical of Americans right now. I have to get on some of them to pull them out of the cloud that the left and the mass media has mezmorized them with.

This is the real deal attack from within.

The war is happening RIGHT NOW.

Our pride (’it can’t happen here’, ‘the next election will take care of it’) will be our downfall.

Your “waiting” for an improvement is where you will remain until that day of shock and awe when you FINALLY realize that your America is gone, dead, history.

The left knows what they’re doing. They have perfected their system.

The only thing that stopped them in the past was the hard-nosed Americans, their knowledge and appreciation of freedom and their system of government, and a homogenous populace.

ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE IN SHORT SUPPLY NOW.

People wake up, or we fall.

THIS IS NO TIME TO WAIT, AMERICANS!!!!!

The confusion, the overwhelming, the demoralizing, the propaganda—it’s all intentional.

The economy is failing BECAUSE THEY WANT IT TO!

Obama is at a Broadway musical while the economy is ON THE BRINK OF TOTAL COLLAPSE.

He’s happy. Haven’t you noticed? Do the ‘Democrats’ seem worried, showing heartfelt concern for America?

Watch the Bezmenov videos. Take note.

Communists are alive and well but they seem ‘gone’, old history, even.

They’re more subterranean now. Pulling levers from below.

Like a slow advancing cancer they are working on our country’s vitals. Not enough to cause pain, or obvious symptoms, but juuuuuust enough to dull your senses a bit while they grow and metastatize to yet more vital parts of our system.

The greatest trick Satan ever pulled was convincing humans he didn’t exist.

While we ‘cringe’ and faint when a talk show host DARES to label someone a socialist or communist, those on the hard-left are rasing a glass to your demise!

While we are slow to even criticize a racist, hard-left Supreme Court nominee, the hard-left winks knowingly to their comrades.

While we sit passively while a SITTING PRESIDENT ousts the CEO of one of our GREATEST COMPANIES (destroyed only by the left) the commies publish articles about their success and the ‘failure’ of capitalism. This would have F***ING ENRAGED the WWII generation, by the way.

Commies stick together (at the outset, anyway). Communists all over the world are hailing the new 0bama administration.

What are we doing about it?

We turn on our PC’s and our TV’s and obvserve from a HUGE DISTANCE. Passively.

Do you think for an instant the the WWII generation would have sat this one out?

Do you suppose they would be ‘waiting’ for the next election while a guy like 0bama nationalizes banks, fires CEO’s, caps salaries, hijacks the Census, gives tax money to radical groups like ACORN and LA RAZA, etc.?

Hell no they wouldn’t have. They’d be steamin’ hot! In the streets and in the faces of their so-called ‘representatives’.

Just imagine, for a moment, what they would have done in response to all that has happened recently.

Now, contrast that with what today’s American is doing—IT’S FRIGHTENING!

Sure, everyone is ready to pound their chests when discussing all the brave, courageous things they will do when the government finally does this, that, or something else.

But, folks, we need some serious action now, or you WILL NOT HAVE RECOURSE LATER.

They will have changed things so much that it will make no sense to you to fight back—you will have already lost everything.

This is how this works.

Do you think that EVERYONE in human history that was a slave/victim to the hard left was some little, passive twirp with no fight in him?

MILLIONS have fallen to the left.

And Americans now believe they cannot fall—A M.O.N.U.M.E.N.T.A.L MISCALCULATION!

So, let’s see, we have oodles of pride COMBINED WITH the gross underestimating of our enemy...

The End.

They did. It took a great big ordeal, Pearl Harbor, to wake people up. Obviously we haven’t had our Pearl Harbor yet. Lemme ask you this, out of shear curiosity and more-so guidance than anything, what would you have us do?
