So will you be the one who fires the first shot?

GB isn’t telling you to lay down your guns. He’s telling the rest of the asshats that make us out to be violent radicals that we aren’t. We just fed up.

If it came down to armed revolution, we can all agree we’d be on the same side.

Beck can’t necessarily go on TV and give that exact TJ quote without be accused of the things he’s already being accused of. 2010 is different than the 1770’s. He thinks about it, as we all have. But going on national television and advocating violence helps no one, especially us.

If you people want a violent revolution to unfold, go ahead and start it up. Don’t complain about those of us that want to do it the non-violent way. Right now, praying, protesting and voting is the best way to see us through this. All other options are distant seconds.

^This.

If all it takes is a year of Obama to incite violence, we are lost. No red-blooded American would suggest that patriots stand by while polticians sell our liberty and Constitution down the river, but we haven’t even had one election yet to allow our voice to be heard.

If the process by which the will of the people is realized becomes subverted and our voice is silenced, that is another story.

This has not happened yet. Keep your powder dry, but keep it locked up until there is absolutely no other alternative.

In my humble opinion, we hurt our own cause when we threaten insurrection before we’ve given the democratic process a chance to work.

Inspire and educate those whom are ready to listen. Live by example. This battle begins at home.

Tea Partiers are not a bunch violent folks, but I kinda like that the Progressives think we are.
