They are only obeyed now because of their ability to use force to require compliance, not because they are seen as a legitimate authority to be obeyed.

That wouldn't matter if there were any real patriots in existence today who had balls bigger than a shrew. Unfortunately, there's not.

There are. But most conservatives won’t give them the time of day. Too busy following false flags.

I’ve given that some serious thought. I don’t think it’s a lack of courage or will. I know quite a few people (several of them are Freepers) who have the gonads to act.

I think the missing factor is organization. For all his faults, Glenn Beck was able to organize the 9/12 rally in D.C. and hundreds of thousands showed up. No one is rallying the masses so-to-speak. (No, I don’t think Glenn Beck is the answer.)

Mark Levin is pushing for the Liberty Amendments, which I support, but that is a political solution. Absent a catalyst, most patriots are quietly prepping to defend themselves and their loved ones.

The Cliven Bundy incident is the closest thing I’ve seen to a catalyst.
