I do believe it!
I'm a patriot, just like you. I'm willing to bleed for my country. I've got patriotism running through my blood- I have a relative who fought for the Continental Army during the Revolution. I just think that we need to wake our neighbors up and have mass civil demonstrations... where we inundate DC and shut the city down, simply due to the volume of people. I think that would put the fear of God in the Washington Weasels. We still have some options left, though time is running short....

MSM plays a part.... be i'm a pretty informed guy... and i don't even bother with the MSM.

The fact is that most people aren't, or haven't been, motivated enough to seek out the information. We need to wake out neighbors up!

I maintain that we have not yet exhausted all our options of action, short of armed action. There are other actions to be taken.

The Founders understood this.

So:
Do you really believe that the law enforcement people in this country would engage in enforcing martial law, just because the people peacefully exercise their right to speak and assemble. We should be marching on Washington this weekend. I do, however, believe that a premature armed resistance would result in martial law. And i believe they would find people to enforce it.
If, God forbid, their procedural maneuver succeeds, they will most likely try it again. That is why we need to have mass marches on DC. We need to exercise our rights to assemble and speak. We need to flood the Capitol with so many people that it shuts the city down. I guarantee that would work. Do you think people will actually exercise these rights? We still have them, we need to use them.

I think if people start an armed resistance before all other options have been exhausted, they will find the people to do it.

I can't say it enough- all options must be exhausted before we resort to armed resistance. At that point, i'm on board. Until then, I'll fight for a peaceful solution. Exactly as our founders did.

You don't think the laziness, complacency and lack of engagement of the citizens of our country has anything to do with our current state of affairs?

If people had actually listened to Obama before the election, there's no way he would have even been any where close to winning.

I find it absolutely astonishing that people actually believe that instituting an armed resistance, before all other avenues of recourse have been explored, is a proper course of action. Amazing.

Granted, I lived in NY, so I don't get the news from Ohio... but I would think this would cause people to march and protest.... it should be national news. The citizens of Ohio should be outraged. More people should know about this, if its true that elections in Ohio no longer yield representatives who are chosen by the majority of the people.

Last time I checked, we still have elections. And when the people vote, their choice is accepted and enters the government as the People's representative. Until this is no longer the case, I maintain that we are civil, principled, and non-violent.

It is up to the People to a.) make informed choices; and b.) Hold politicians accountable.
The way i see it, most people are only now starting to do the latter, and have not, in the past, done the former. The People hold a certain amount of blame in this situation. We became complacent and lazy, in general. There are a few of us who are exceptions to the rule.

The only war, right now, should be fought at the voting booth. Until we are denied free elections to choose our representatives, I maintain that non-violent action is the way to go.

Respectfully, I stand firm in my belief that armed resistance is not the only course of action. We still have elections. We have other forms of civil disobedience.

I think it would be a mistake to confuse non-violence with inaction.

very interesting points here

"We just need to keep up the conversation until we've gathered the right kind of resistance"
Most definitely... this is immensely important right now.

Yeah, i only catch the last couple minute of his show-- the re-runs on before fox and friends-- so i'm not too familiar with him... i was under the impression that he was a conservative, with a little libertarian hint, but i guess i was wrong? that's too bad that he supports a national i.d. card.
