Violence is the desperate and ineffective modus operandi of the Left. Violence is NOT the answer -- peaceful non-violent resistance is (e.g. Martin Luter King and Gandhi).

We the People are taking a stand as evident with the 9/12 project, the Tea Party, strong conservative Governors (Jindal, Brewer, Christie,Daniels) and recent election victories (Sharon Engel, Nikki Hailey, Scott Brown*, etc). Do not despair for a tsunami is coming in 2010/2012.

As Rick Santelli emphatically stated yesterday “America is exceptional. America will rise again. We always do. No matter what." (Video clip).

*RINO, but the election showed the power of grass root tea party support.

Well, I wish you luck. As for me, I'm done. Our political and legal system has become so corrupted, a vote is meaningless to me. I know I'll get flamed for this but that's how I see it and I'm finished playing the game. Most people know the majority of our politicians are crooked, not to mention not very bright to boot. Every once in a while the next ‘savior’ arrives on the scene and in the end nothing changes much. I've observed my country go to shit over the last 30 years and as far as I can tell we are on the glide path to complete ruin as things get worse and worse. Maybe (hopefully) out of the ashes the phoenix will rise but until we are working on that, I'm done. I'll do whatever I must to protect myself and family....the rest of it, there's nothing I can do and I'm not going to pretend there is. Sorry.

Peaceful, non-violent protest is only effective when you're trying to effect social change in a moral, civilized country. Our government no longer meets that description. It is now run by a cabal of tyrannical oligarchs, who spit on our Constitution and walk on our flag. Monsters like them only respect and respond to one thing, and that is overwhelming force.

The Founders understood this, and that is why they wisely chose to confront the evil of their day with violent force. It's how this nation won its freedom.

None of us wants to see the current battle escalate into violent revolution, but unless we can somehow depose the little dictators now in charge, and root out their cohorts from every level of government through peaceful means, it will come to that.
