No one’s talking about rebellion. What we are discussing is RESTORING THE CONSTITUTION to its rightful place as Supreme Law of the Land. By whatever means are needful. There can be no question of “rebellion,” as the source of all legitimate authority the Feds have is WE, THE PEOPLE. And if we REMOVE their authority because they’ve overstepped their bounds, that is NOT HARDLY rebellion. It is more akin to evicting some squatters from the Capitol Building and the White House. Is THAT OK for you?

Marine, are you willing to participate in a SIT-IN and make the Metro Police, DC Park Police, and depending on location, the Fedgov authorities arrest you for a misdemeanor for failing to disperse?

If you could make it to DC for this event and conduct such misdemeanor (no felonies; no violence) "civil disobedience", I give you my Word of Honor I will pay your bail and small fine. I've actually post articles on FR saying I would do the same up to 20 people - got NO response. Not surprised. All you have to do, or anyone, just sit down and refuse to disperse when the authorities say game over. Once the LEO's move in, cooperate with them and let them handcuff you and get up and go. Resisting arrest is usually a felony. However, refusing to disperse is not. And we both know that most LEO's appreciate our position much more than the rowdy socialist's crap.

I've done some research, but I'm not clear on DC Metro, DC Park, and Fedgov Park regulations regarding this. It depends on where you make your stand. I've suggested to JR and others regarding this even that they look into local laws, regulations, and penalties for Sit-ins.

Bottom line is, no matter how many Tea Parties happen around the Country, unless we are willing to take it to the next level, with small sacrifice, the Media will ignore it like they did on April 15th and July 4th.

If I could be there (family illness precludes), I would be the first to just SIT down and/or chain myself to the Capitol steps. It's worked for the liberals for decades. Time to use their strategies against them. Your bro agrees with me. Freepmail me if you want more info. Best, ANV
