“We are reduced to the alternative of choosing an unconditional submission to the tyranny of irritated ministers, or resistance by force. The latter is our choice. We have counted the cost of this contest and find nothing so dreadful as voluntary slavery. Honor, justice, and humanity forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us.” We cannot endure the infamy and guilt of resigning succeeding generations to that wretchedness which inevitably awaits them, if we basely entail hereditary bondage upon them.
– Thomas Jefferson,
DECLARATION OF TAKING UP ARMS:
RESOLUTIONS OF THE SECOND CONTINENTAL CONGRESS
JULY 6, 1775.
It is our duty to preserve every freedom.
The 2nd Amendment is clear.
“A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
‘Well regulated’ means ‘properly functioning’.
The 2nd Amendment acknowledges that the militia (individual armed citizens) are the guardians of our free state and tasks them with maintaining it. The Amendment forbids the government to infringe on The People’s Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
The very existence of the Amendment is a warning to be wary of the government, that we may someday have to use arms against a rogue government that no longer acts in the best interests of The People and threatens the free state.
Freedom is more important, more cherished than safety. People throughout history have overthrown their oppressors by rejecting the safety of compliance, breaking the peace, and risking their lives to be free.
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
We must not tolerate being disarmed by a government we might someday have to resist with violence. And, we would need modern weapons to maintain a meaningful, tacit threat.
“Maintaining Freedom Through Firepower”.
The 2nd Amendment must be maintained forever.
If Cruz’s jail cell were left open to a mob of liberals angered by the shooting, he would be in no danger.
He’s not their enemy.
In countries where gun ownership is restricted, the governments always pass more restrictions and enact more oppressive controls affecting businesses and everyday life. It’s always a package deal. Gun control is never the only thing they do to the people. The people of those countries lose control of their governments.
We’ve already had a taste of the liberals’ attempts to impose controls.
Obama and the liberal congress forced unworkable healthcare and restrictions and fines down our throats. In other actions he deliberately and openly bypassed the legislative process because he knew he would be stopped. By bypassing the legislative process he shielded the liberal lawmakers, and cut The People’s connection to the legislative process.
His minions throughout government, the media, activist groups, and mobs: tried to control TV and radio broadcasts, interfered with the voting of servicemen overseas, intimidated conservative voters at the polling stations, used the IRS to suppress support for conservative candidates, used the EPA to stop job creation, tried to stop all displays of religious beliefs in public, and more.
The citizens’ Bill of Rights is used by the progressive liberals as a list of what needs to be destroyed for them to gain total control. The progressives lie when they take the oath of office. The oath is nothing to them.
We are in a simmering civil war – It’s the Americans against the liberals.
My Creed
I do not choose to be a common man.
It is my right to be uncommon … if I can.
I seek opportunity … not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen,
Humbled and dulled by having the State look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk,
To dream and to build. To fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole;
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence;
The thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence
Nor my dignity for a handout
I will never cower before any earthly master
Nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid;
To think and act for myself,
To enjoy the benefit of my creations
And to face the world boldly and say:
“This, with God’s help, I have done.”
— DEAN ALFANGE
is a wonderful woman representing a fantastic president. She goes out there day after day deflecting cheap shots from reporters who are openly biased. She is a Daniel in the Lion’s Den and they can’t touch her. She’s cool. She deserves our support.
” … but not the ugliest of things.
The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling
which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.
The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety,
is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free
unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.”
John Stuart Mill
Globalists, liberals, socialists have let the enemy in. The enemy didn’t even need a Trojan horse. The islamic enemy is boldly open about its intent to take over and change the country.
The globalists are not resisting islam. They are resisting the victims who are crying for help.
America is much friendlier to the environment than other countries and always will be.
By withdrawing from the Paris Agreement President Trump is shielding America from a conniving world which demands disproportionate American financial participation in all programs in order to access the wealth of the American taxpayer.
We are not the world’s tax base.
That’s over now. America First!
the false science of the Paris climate agreement. He didn’t cave to get along, or to share in the spoils of the laws that would have come from it.
The enormity and complexity of climate is beyond our ability to change it. We are observers.
Trump is already dismantling much of what obama and his cronies did. And, it has been easier than anyone thought. He’s got another 7½ years to do even greater things to remove the shackles on American independence and innovation. I am thoroughly enjoying his presidency.
So finally ! the climate change hoax is over for America ! And the EPA is being downsized and returned to its original mission.
