You say you're an Oathkeeper? Well, the Oathkeepers I know aren't surrender monkeys. Yeah, we know times are tough, and things might get, well, interesting. If it does, so be it...we'll have no one to blame but ourselves for our gloom and doom predictions coming true. It will have come to it because instead of making the best use of the freedoms we have left, and what time we have left, we spent all our days, weeks and months bleating to one another about how "America is dead" and "America is finished". If America ever does die, it'll be because surrender monkeys, like so many here on FReep, have frittered away the last of our liberty, wringing their hands, sitting at their keyboards, sitting on their couches, or even worse...going expat...when they could have been doing everything in their power to save her.
I totally disagree that there aren't people who would put their lives, liberty and sacred fortunes at risk for the Republic. I think they're everywhere...they need leaders to bring them out in the open. A couple of years ago, the Tea Party provided that leadership. Since the 2010 elections, though, they've gotten lazy and complacent, resting on their laurels and squandering their momentum like we conservatives are so good at. Maybe you need to step up and be that leader. Maybe I do. Maybe all of us here on FReep need to. The veterans damn well need to step up and lead.
I agree with what Beck says...we surround them. They have the media, so it may not seem like it, but we are the great, silent majority. We can either mobilize the majority, deprogram the younger generations, and lead our nation back to the great Republic we were given by braver men than us, or we can cower at our desks, pounding away on the keyboard, accomplishing nothing while America burns to the ground.
I'll die alone if I have to, but I'd rather not die at all. I'd rather a few million fellow patriots join me out in the streets of the USA, picket signs in hand, yelling at the tops of our lungs that we're not going to put up with their bull shi'ite anymore. Are we going to earn our American birthright? Or are we going to pi** it away because we're too afraid we might get called bad names by the Leftist media (hint: they're already calling us bad names)?
