In the various branches of the family tree are nobility who gave up that advantage to help establish this Republic, including a Signer of the Declaration.
Our family has fought in most of the wars, from before the Revolution to the present day, and yet we are progressively stripped of more rights and property by a government which was intended to secure those.
I am ever reminded that "...Government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed".. and only wait until that consent is more universally revoked.
If I live so long, perhaps we can set this country straight. Perhaps not, but given no other choices, I'd rather die a free man than live in bondage.
For now, I am content to plant the seeds of freedom in whatever mind I can, to remind people of the Rights infringed by the Government's overreach, and to exhort them to insist that Government and our public servants conduct themselves as they are supposed to.
It is an uphill battle, especially among 'exceptional conservatives' who are conservative, except ______(fill in the blank of their pet issue).
The concept of fairness has been so distorted that people can't see eliminating pet projects to reign in the continued expansion, and they still cry out "there ought to be a law".
It is tedious...
...and yes, I'm angry at the people who lie to the public and daily infringe upon our Rights for personal gain.
If there is another American Revolution, it won't look like the last. It will more closely resemble The Terror (post French Revolution) as the reprisals will continue for years, if not decades, as the "criminals" (defined by the victors) are hunted down like medieval outlaws.
Or if you get depressed the Doctor hands you anti depressant.
White people I know who have died in the last 15 years that were young.

A week later her classmate went to sleep and never woke up.Took a bunch of pills.Her grades were not up to par for parents .They were both 24.A week after that my daughter’s friend at school’s brother committed suicide while she was out shopping.She found him.He was 30.
My son committed suicide at 40-started with anti-depressant’s.
Good old family Doctor gave the whole family anti-depressant’s after he died.One got hooked and became suicidal but thank God we all intervened and prayers from FR in Freepmail.
These people have not reached the stats and I have more.
OD from Heroin at our local high school is the 4th largest in the country but that figure will go up because it’s so cheap now.
I know so many who OD on Heroin.
Why do I know this-because I am out there.Any numbers that you are reading now are nothing to what is happening to our young .
