“It is a big country. Leave Oregon and live somewhere people are relatively normal. Besides, with the new recreation weed laws, it won’t be safe to be on the roads in that liberal cesspool.”
Actually they’ve said they will stay and fight, a decision for which they should be applauded. The major contributing factor to the decline of societal valued and the culture is the failure of good people to stand and fight when the leftists first started chipping away. To reverse the tide at this point will require people of courage who are willing to risk all, yet will fight to the end.
Consider in the article, the labor commissioner issued a gag order even the administrative judge was not willing to entertain. Why? Either he wanted to show the bakers the overwhelming power of the state or he is getting tremendous flack from the public and wants to shut up the bakers to end the pressure. Whichever the reason, the fight needs to be pressed. All moving away does is empower the leftist tyranny to declare victory and move on to another restriction on liberty.
No way the tyrannical government will let these people leave the state peacefully anyway. It will seize their assets, $130,000 is a significant sum for these folks. Likely if they go somewhere else to start a business, leftists groups will hunt them down and continue to hound them and find a way to use the media and the state to destroy them.
Win or lose this couple has decided to oppose tyranny and stand for their rights. Will others stand with them in the battle or will the public go home to watch Dancing with the Stars? The answer to this question will tell you the ultimate fate of the Republic.
One thing you learn in life is to pick your battles. That involves a lot of things not the least of which is know the terrain, prepare and then strike when the time is right.
Now, it is great to stand up for what you believe in and defend that right. Since I don’t watch TV much, I can’t relate to the Dancing Stars thing. But, I have had my fights against tyranny. Some I did pretty well with and others, in my youth, I hadn’t learned how to prepare and I lost miserably.
One thing you have to be is smart and think your way through it all. You don’t walk into a Lion’s den carrying red meat and expect to come out in one piece.
Have a great 4th of July!!
