The thought you conveyed in your second sentence is correct. The only thing in question will be how you die: [a] From a Federalized member of your local police. or [b] starved ,worked, and beaten to death by Obama's goons in one of his camps while bastards like Hillary tour said camp and laugh at you. Like Himmler did the Jews in Hitler's camps.

There's a third choice:

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst; the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

I intended to phrase it thusly: You can either die on your feet fighting as a free man/woman or on your knees as a slave begging.

I have made my choice. To the point it is: I was born free and I will die free. I have made my Peace with my Maker and am now just going along until that time gets here. But anyway, my race is about run, at the longest, either way,I don't have very much time left. I just enjoy what I have left.
