Perhaps.. A left wing general can bark all the orders he wants..
what if no one listens?
What if they do?
Any number of reasons.
Civillians will not defeat the us military.
Civillians do not have any organization.
Civillians are not trained as soldiers and police are trained.
The government can interecpt every single communication made in the country.
The us government could choose to use chemical and biological weapons against us.
I could go on and on, really.
Then we die for our cause.
“give me liberty or give me death” come to mind?
I am not suggesting we go straight to war. It’s the last resort.
well... I guess you could just give up. Failure is always an option.
Failure already occurred.
Yes, it most certainly does come to mind, and I expect that is what will happen.
Yes.. It has. However, you don’t have to stop at failure. We lost a battle. Not the war.
What we lost was our freedom.
It’s gone.
Yes, you can still go to a movie on Friday evening and order a pizza.
But the government now controls what counts, and that is any aspect of our behavior or non-bahavior that they choose to control, and they will choose all.
What we lost was our freedom.
It’s gone.
So that is it? parties over? Have a good night?
Sorry.. I have kids. There is no way in hell I will just lay down and allow our freedom to be gone forever. They deserve better.
