What leads you to believe that you can vote your way out of tyranny? Remember who we’re dealing with.

There are some that error on either side.

Those that say there won’t be elections are mistaken - all dictatorships have “elections” these days.

But those who think that those elections can actually change anything are more gravely mistaken.

Let’s see what Sheriff Joe does, and what becomes of him...

“Middle ground”, eh? The only things you find in the middle of the road are yellow stripes and roadkill. Fence-sitters are enablers of evil.

“I’m still trying to determine how much Obama wants some kind of violence as a justification of taking further control. “

Not how much. WHEN?

Since the Sheriff has nearly absolute authority in his given county, your statement is appropriate.

That was indeed the rationale.

I took the oath in 1968. As far as I’m concerned I’m still bound to it...it had no expiration date. Just sayin’....

Got to it a few minutes ago and but can’t now.

Exactly true. Wondered if someone would call me on that. Just pointing out their premise. Not advocating a worldview.

Ever hear of Rev hero Francis Marion, otherwise known as “the Swamp Fox?”

Yep - understood. Compromise and nicey-nicey is what got us to where we are today. Now we face the hard road out, and there's no guarantee that we'll make it. Here's how I've framed this question in the past:

When your opponents lack the price of admission to civilized debate: a respect for reason, belief in objective truth, and a willingness to admit they're wrong when the facts prove it so - what then?

When your opponents' goals are to destroy the very foundation of your culture and your society - and to offer nothing in return but the howling nightmare of a society of cannibals and looters - what then?

When your opponents seize and indoctrinate your children's' minds in the politics of victimization and the nobility of human servitude and sacrifice - what then?

When the institutions of higher learning are occupied by Marxist multiculturalists who despise the very philosophical foundation upon which the architecture of liberty and human dignity have been be constructed - what then?

to date, no one has had the courage to provide a stright-up and direct answer to these questions. It's the big fat elephant taking a monster dump in everyone's living room that no one wants to see or smell.

Here's another hint from somone far wiser than I:

"What I am getting at here is that there is a malicious and sinister objective within the heart of the Left. It craves totalitarianism, because totalitarianism will suffocate freedom and, ultimately, human life itself – which the Left hates the most."
Victor Davis Hanson

So - how does a rational man respond to to those who wish to kill or enslave him?
