As more and more human rights of U.S. citizens are violated in the name of safety and security, the group Anonymous stands to fight at the side of Americans. Over the holiday weekend, they have even gone as far to announce a call to arms.
The fact that many people are still unaware of the “hacker” group Anonymous is sign of censorship by today’s mainstream media. There is a clear need for groups such as Anonymous as the fact of this direct censorships shows just how clouded the media’s freedom of speech has become.

The activist group Anonymous claims to fight for the good of the people despite the ever oppressive state of police and government. It has often fought to defend the defenseless especially after police have failed to, or it was not within their legal limits to, do so. Sign The Petition To Repeal Obamacare

It is unclear the direct reason for the release of the video, but just after Christmas, Anonymous called for the assembly of an, at the moment non-existent, Anonymous Liberation Army. They inform the public via YouTube that if rights are violated, Anonymous stands at the ready to defend those being oppressed and expose those that criminally act illegally—i.e. police and government officials.

They express that civil liberties are already at their breaking points being violated by so-called authority figures on a daily basis. The mask wearing representative urges viewers to act now before it’s too late and we live in a world where revolution is no longer possible.

The video insists that American citizens take to the street in protest in order to fight for the rights and liberties we have already lost. In doing so, Anonymous hopes to reestablish a freer and less dominated lifestyle for the American public.

Anonymous then quotes Thomas Jefferson saying, “the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” This infers that as we stand in face of tyranny, we must act swiftly and in a controlled violent manner.
Several grassroots organizations are already forming across the country as the government continues to infringe on several liberties. Obama continues to go behind Americans back in order to disarm them, and he has also secretly signed a bill that allows for Secret Service to limit your freedom of speech.

As Obama continues to chip away at the legalities protecting America from martial law, this may just be the time to act—but I’m afraid that by the time America wakes up, it may just be too late. I believe that is the exact point Anonymous seeks to demonstrate as they make their call to arms.

As Americans can literally watch the liberties and freedoms wash away down the street, there must come a time where American’s stand up to take back what is theirs. And sometimes all it takes to start revolution is a simple spark—a simple nudge.

Rick Wells of The Free Patriot states that this may just be, “nudge that is felt around the world.”
The video ends with a clip from the movie V For Vendetta that relevantly states, “violence can be used for good.”

Sometimes the enemy of your enemy can be your friend.
I’ve been wondering where these guys are after all the NSA stuff was leaked.
This is pretty much a no-win situation. If we can’t wake our fellow citizens up, we have no options. Yes we can commit suicide for ourselves and our families. That’s about it.
Agreed...
As a person who believes there will be end days where we won’t really be able to stand up to an out of control government and our fallen fellow men, it seems to me that only God’s direct intervention will save the day.
I think this old earth is about played out. The end game doesn’t involve us conquering mortal man. It involves conquering ourselves in preparation for the second coming.
Kind of a heavy trip for those who can’t connect the dots, but that’s what runs through my mind these days.
I agree.
In listening to Mark Levin on C-Span, he said something that will stay with me forever: (I paraphrase)-—If the administration doesn’t follow the Constitution, why the hell should any citizen follow any law this administration comes up with?
We NEED a popular uprising against this fraudulent gubmint.
The inability will be due to a chosen lack of faith. I want to emphasize CHOSEN.
“If you won’t fight back, there’s nothing they can’t do to you.”
Beautifully put.
I agree...
This message is big and coming from what most of us think of as anarchists. I hesitate to align with those who may be socially liberal, but smaller government and freedom give us a chance to persuade our neighbors toward Christ, whereas giving up to tyrants overruns the Gospel and sanctions the Prince of this World.
1. Our children and grandchildren will be paying the bills for this "victim" society that this government has perpetuated (taxation without representation...).
2. Our Founding Fathers would not have tolerated the current government.
3. Those "victims" who do not agree with the basis of our Constitution need to find somewhere else to live, if necessary forcibly or by demarcation to another jurisdiction separate from non-victims (so we don't have to fund/sanction their chosen lifestyle).
4. The resources of this country can not be provided to the "victim" class and therefore possibly require actions similar to the American revolution.
5. At one time in history, Israel allowed the un-godly to highjack their society and God punished them severely. If we are to be blessed by our Creator, we need to do what Israel failed to do in their time of crisis and take back our Judeo-Christian country based on Freedom in Christ.
6. As stewards of our freedom and our offsprings future, we need to take measures that will ensure they have the same opportunities we have had.
Anything less would be cowardice!
BUMP
The “victim” society is spot-on
Not everyone in this community fully appreciates the real potential dynamics at work here. To wit:
In the (first) American Revolution, no more than 3% of the colonists ever shouldered a rifle and fired upon the British. At the same time, about a third of the population fully supported the cause of independence.
If worse came to worst today, I think we’d see a greater percentage of Americans willing to stand their ground and defend their homes, families, and country, from a government they no longer recognize. I believe the percentage would be greater because America now has a long established history as a sovereign nation and people now. That wasn’t precisely the case in the mid 1700s.
If I had to guess, I’d say the percentage of those who stood and fought would be at least 10% today. I would also guess that about 50% of the population would fully support such a last resort defense.
Even the best equipped, most advanced military on the planet, can’t contend with an insurgent force of 30,000,000 armed and committed combatants.
During the ten years our military was tied down in Iraq, there were never more than an estimated 15,000 insurgents on the ground at any given time. And they tied our high tech military down with little more than AK-47s and IEDs. In the end, our forces left without achieving a total, unqualified victory.
Now imagine the same military faced with a similar, but much larger, and even more committed insurgency in their own country. For reasons too numerous to mention in this post, there’d be no hope of defeating such a home grown army.
There are also severe logistics problems for a popular uprising dealing with the US government.
An 'insurgent' force that was never estimated to be larger than 15,000 individuals tied the entire U.S. military down in Iraq for almost a decade. When we finally withdrew from that campaign, we did so without achieving a true, unqualified victory.
Those 'insurgents' held out against the most advanced, most powerful military in the world, with little more than AK-47s and IEDs.
Should the American people ever be pushed to armed rebellion, the numbers of those who would stand and fight would dwarf the numbers of Iraqi insurgents by orders of magnitude. It was 3% in the (first) American Revolution. That percentage would be greater today. Perhaps as much as 10%, which equals a force of 30,000,000 armed and committed souls who would be fighting to protect and defend their homes, families, and their very way of life, from an evil that they believe is hell bent on obliterating every trace of their country.
There isn't a military force on the planet that can conquer a home grown force that large and so determined.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thin o. king: What would things have been like if , when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye 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 with 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! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn - The Gulag Archipelago

U.S. Media is the greatest threat to its Country.
One of my many platitudes, but it’s true.
Those who are not against us are for us.
IOW, if they — though their ultimate aims are at variance with The Constitution — initiate acts against despotic governmental powers, and those ill-intentioned acts are subsequently, and advantageously employed by others as a springboard for far broader scale actions aimed at Constitutional restoration...
You get the drift, here.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
I agree with you, BenLurkin.
Excellent synopsis.
Everybody’s hear the horror stories about neighbors like that. Your point is well-taken.
You both mentioned Waco. I told my wife tonight that the military was used against civilians in Waco and got away with it. It will only get worse. The few who complained were condemned by conservatives as well as liberals even though innocent children were killed at Ruby Ridge and Mt. Carmel.
