The 3% of yesteryear were people without the excuses that I hear all the time. “My house, my car, My kids college my PS4”. Now to be sure, the RevWar people put their material goods on the line and many lost them. Would they today? I go back to my question earlier. How many actual people right here on FR would you honestly trust to have your and your famlies back?

Whatever that number, it would be far higher than the general population. And nowhere near 50%. You might START with the 50% number until the first examples were made of the 10% willing to stand firm. After word spread of the first SWAT raids or the first big flash mob assaults, you would QUICKLY hear “Hey I got a wife and kids man...”

And then you’re at about MAYBE with luck, 20% perephrial support. And thats after the first round of brownshirts.

All you have to do is look at Germany. They were pounded down after WW1 by the terms of the treaty/sanctions and we have been pounded down by Obama and the nonstop media blitz against everything America stands for. And the people of that era were far stronger willed. Look at today’s ‘average’ American. Or try to without puking. Pussified, more concerned with killing their own babies, banning Christmas plays in grade school...OR ALLOWING IT TO GO ON, than lifting a finger to stop it.

I just do not see how anyone counts on them for support. Most will go Vichy to keep their material goods and live under the new order than do squat.

Yes, there are good people left. Solid, rugged and determined. But on the whole, person for person the American of today is the faintest fraction of his ancestor.

Most will not fight. Most will however reap the benefits of those who will. Put another way, This is Vietnam on a grand scale.

Brother, I'm really sorry to see that you have such a bleak outlook on our people. I really am. I don't know what else I can say to convince you that it's not as bad as you perceive.

I guess it boils down to a glass half full / empty view of where we are as a people.

For the record, I don't base my assertions about where our people are at on faith. It's what I see in front of me every day. The spirit of rebellion is alive in this country and growing all the time. There's a real hunger to preserve and protect what's best about our nation and its culture among us. I simply note and acknowledge that it's there, and it gives me hope.
