The implication here is that we may have to use these same tactics, which I am tending to agree. Civil disobedience has been too long associated with the left, but historically it has been used for for many just and right causes also.

The danger of the current left and the french revolution is that they were rebelling against what they didn't want. And it was bloody.

Our founding fathers were wise in having a very clear understanding of what they were working toward, which was their rights from God. People were not always pure in their ideology, but I think the evidence in our original documents speak.

We as conservatives here are not of like mind, and have little common ground, we are fractionalized. Balkenized if you prefer.

Compared to the left we're like a solid block of granite. As an example, the left consists of blacks who aren't fond of hispanics and hispanics who aren't fond of blacks and neither group cares about environmental groups or issues. You have your urban liberals who claim to care about the poor but only want others to sacrifice to help the poor while they themselves live in nice neighborhoods.

The stroke of genius in the Michigan RTW fight was bringing in pro union conservatives who supported RTW. When the support among union members hit 40% it triggered the legislation. Now the unions are caught in a divide among their own members that is only going to get worse.
