I know Engineers would never fall for the Imaginary Numbers scam. Their calculators come up all “EEEEEE” when they try it, and that’s often their first indication their theory is off, and not just by a few decimal points.

(In computer programming, “ABS” is often the most powerful, yet the most dangerous single operand function.)

My problem with it is that even it was a sound conservative out come it would be adhered to anymore than the constitution we already have.

What's needed are some more explicit statements:

  1. Actions contrary to the Constitution are illegitimate.
  2. Illegitimately breaking into a dwelling is burglary.
  3. Illegitimately accosting someone therein is robbery.
  4. Illegitimately killing someone is murder.
  5. Persons who instruct others to commit burglary, robbery, or murder are conspirators.
  6. Citizens have a right and duty to protect themselves and society from burglars, robbers, murderers, and their conspirators, by any such means as the criminals make necessary.
Such statements would make things safer for legitimate government personnel and citizens alike. Government agents couldn't safely carry on as they do now, but those who want honest governance shouldn't want them to be able to safely carry on as they do now, and should thus view that as a good thing.

The constitution is already explicit.

There are times when I look at this country, politically and culturally, and I just want to say “What the hell, why keep fighting a losing cause?” It can get depressing beyond belief. That is exactly what the left wants us to think, how they want us to feel, beaten down. It is how the left works, with abortion, global warming, the 2nd Amendment, free speech, sexual perversion, Christianity, and so on. Evil never stops, never tires, and never thinks it is a losing cause, and evil is exactly what we are fighting against.

We have our tools and weapons, powerful arsenals we shouldn’t forget, Christ, our churches, our families, our morals, and principles. These can’t be beaten to submission. It may not look like it, and it may not work the way we want it to, but we still have a divided federal government, and it is up to us to push it as hard as we can to fight tyranny. We still have our states, and whenever possible, states must be made to push back against the federal tyranny.

We must use what we have to fight a strategic war, focusing on the far future, as well as on the brief political successes we can muster up. If we are going to retake what is ours, get back the lost ground, we have to dig in for the long fight, and then we have to fight it. There is no winning the political war without regaining the cultural high ground, our educational systems, our universities, our media, churches and institutions. If we can’t reach the hearts and minds of people, we can’t win, but it isn’t something that can happen overnight, through one election, or a dozen elections. Keep the faith, and recognize the full spectrum of the war.
