Hyperbole doesn’t become you. I’m a FReeper because I believe in our cause. I’m a thinker because I want to see it succeed. Emoting is the realm of liberalism. Contemplation of conservatism. Which do you choose?

Would it be wrong, not just in this case, not just with Cliven Bundy, but in general, to gather as many victims of government abuse as possible? Would it hurt our cause to gather a large cross section of people who are harmed by government?

If Cliven Bundy (kook or not) were one of ten thousand victims wouldn’t it promote our cause even better? Wouldn’t it be great to have other rural victims and mix them with suburban victims and then urban victims of government abuse? Wouldn’t it just help solidify in the minds of the American voters that the problem is government?

We have a beautiful opportunity to win big this fall. Why not gather more examples and not just one? This isn’t an isolated case is it?

Now I am suspecting you of being an “agent provocateur” -

It is an interesting misdirection you have in mind - but, not going to pay it much mind, because it would only encourage us to scatter our energies into the wind.

But, it is a nice try, and while your sentiment is correct about the endless victims of .gov abuse, it doesn’t seem a workable strategy for focusing the mind of the general public.

Perhaps you could find a more “worthy” symbol than Cliven Bundy to help awake the body politic, and if so, who might you suggest?

I pray that God will lead us so we can be once again, a free country, governed by honorable men, elected by honest ballots.
