America Tolerates Preaching Overthrow Of Government; We Didn't Before
The Post Chronicle ^ | Jan 2, 2009 | Vincent Gioia

Posted on 01/04/2009 9:28:33 AM PST by An Old Man

There was a time, now disparaged by liberals, when it was considered un-American to advocate the overthrow of the United States. Indeed, even congress thought so and launched investigations to reveal by "outing" prominent people who harbored such thoughts and philosophies. Of course, in today's age of political correctness, and worse, those investigators are defiled and the guilty are revered. Many of those discovered to be un-American resided in Hollywood but others were in government and in classified research. Our arch enemy at the time, the Soviet Union, advanced there own research programs with the help of these "un-Americans."

Can we please have the Chevy volt, and other plug in hybrids now? Why is this taking so long?

The funding for these idiots comes from the Saudis, which comes from us when ever we buy fuel.
Sure, we need to drill, but if I can get a reasonable car to get me back and forth to work that will use little or no Arab Oil, I will do it.

Congratulations on an extraordinary history making election!

We can think back with pride to decades of hard work toward our strategic goal of a big enough, broad enough and united enough labor and all-people’s movement that could overcome the ultra-right blockage to all progress. That all people’s movement has come to life, it is dynamic and it has the potential to keep growing.

The election of Barack Obama and a strengthened Congress creates new conditions in our country. There is now the possibility to shift gears and move forward. This new day requires us to further develop our tactics in order to continue to deepen and broaden labor and people’s unity.

There are thousands of experiences that we all have had in these momentous days, some large, some small, all of which express the enormity of change in thinking and readiness for involvement that is underway and that steels us for the battles ahead.

The tears of joy we all shared as crowds gathered to watch the election results here and throughout the world dramatize the new moment we are in.

The title of the article begs the question: America Tolerates Preaching Overthrow Of Government; We Didn't Before

Why?

Somehow, I imagine the leftists will now embrace the government and comments about overthrowing the government, after Jnauary 20, will once again be considered treasonous.

I would also imagine gone will be the slogans, “question authority,” and “Speak truth to power,” at least over the next 4 years.

As leftists declared on the evening of November 4, 2008 locally, Americans finally came together.

Hate to tell them, I may be a conservative in exile, but I’m not dead and as long as I can speak or post on my blog, here or other forums, I will fight them to he bitter end.

Arming the Left: Is the time now?

Response to Reply #10

16. Yes, spread the word, even if you *didn't* read it, that there *will* be riots! Yes! Riots, and a whole lot more!..."

Democratic Underground blogger ("happyslug": 1000+ posts) responds...

"if it is decided to fight, be prepared to fight, bring a backpack, entrenching tool, tent, and other equipment of an Infantrymen. You will need it for Bush and his supporters decides it is better to fight than to accept the will of the people, the fight to overthrow them will be a long fight."

"...it takes three things to overthrow a tyrant;...

1. Popular support, you must have the majority of the people on your side (i.e. Democracy, even the Communists and Islamics both try to show they have the Support of the Majority of the People),

2. Organization to perform the overthrow (This is why Madison wrote the First like he did, these are HOW you organize an opposition. Without the First it is hard to organize an opposition and any resistence organized in absence of the rights stated in the First tend to be as tyrannical as what you are opposing)

3. Weapons to push the issue if the leadership that is being overthrown tries to use force to stay in power. You have to be willing to answer force with force. Weapons do not overthrow a tyrant, weapons just protect the people who are overthrowing a tyrant."

"Now, you may say "Hay, you are talking about Islamic and/or Communists groups not 'Western Liberal resistence groups'". And you would be correct. As I said in the beginning the first step in a guerilla war against a tyrant is to first organize. The Islamic and Communists Groups were the best at organizing people. "Western Liberal Resistence Groups" were less effective in organizing resistence groups (And less liked by the CIA and KGB who tended to fund these groups, remember any war is expensive, money talks).

Furthermore since most Islamic and Communist groups tend to be the first groups outlawed they tend to go underground first. Once underground they start to organize and as other groups are outlawed those groups tend to join the opposition which tends to be either Islamic or Communistic. Once outlawed these groups also tend to be controlled by the most fanatic opponents of the Tyrants and these tend to be either Islamic or Communistic. Thus to oppose the Tyrants you have to support a side with enough discipline to get the job done and that tend to be Communist or Islamic."

"...Any weapons we resort to must be "real" weapons not pistols. i.e. Rifles and shotguns. Due to concerns of re-supply (you have to plan for a long battle) such weapons should be limited to very small number of different rounds. Generally restrict yourself to the following rounds:

5.56x 45 (.223 Remington) 7.62x 63 (30-06) 7.62x 51 (.308 Winchester or 7.62 NATO) 7.62 x 39 (7.62mm Russian 7.62 AK Round) 12 Gauge Shotgun. 30-30 Winchester."

"You have more weapons in the above calibers than any other calibers thus should be your first choice in weapons. Saying this I must point out I like the 7x57 and 7.92x57 Mauser rounds and the M1898 Mauser Bolt action Rifle, but the 7.92 (sometime called 8mm Mauser) but these rounds are less common than the above and thus harder to obtain when re-supply is needed (and re-supply will be needed if the struggle lasts for any length of time).

Re-supply of Ammunition has always been the bane of any military operations. Without ammunition you can not fight. To get you ammunition, it is easier if we can keep the number of different rounds to a minimum (i.e. 5.56x45 and 7.62x51). I list the 30-06 and 30-30 winchester rounds for these are two VERY popular rounds and ammunition for both are easy to obtain (the same with the 12 Gauge shotgun). I list the 7.62 AK round do to the huge number of SKSs and AKs imported since the fall of the Soviet Union. I list it for while there are probably more 30-30s and 30-06 rifles out they than 7.62 Aks and SKSs, the Aks and SKSs may very while outnumber the rifles in 5.56x45 and 7.62 NATO.

Also, if it is decided to fight, be prepared to fight, bring a backpack, entrenching tool, tent, and other equipment of an Infantrymen. You will need it for Bush and his supporters decides it is better to fight than to accept the will of the people, the fight to overthrow them will be a long fight."

i find it quite incredible but i actually agree with ayers on a couple of things in that april article on his website, this in particular

“—the Union fight in the 1860’s was just, for example, but Shernan’s March to the Sea was indefensible terror. I’ve never advocated terrorism, never participated in it, never defended it. The U.S. government, by contrast, does it routinely and defends the use of it in its own cause consistently.”

If Bill Ayers can preach overthrowing the government and be held as some sort of anti-society hero, then why can’t we?

He preached it, acted upon it and now teaches our youth, any wonder we are close to collapse?

"we just need to toss out the corrupt politicians and put more people in with honesty and commitment to our nation. Commitment to what our founding fathers intended."

Easier said than done.  How are you going to achieve that since the left-controlled MSM dictates what the mindless general populous thinks?

The left have no commitment to this country's founding fathers.  They regard them as "old school" and the Constitution as "an out of touch worthless piece of parchment" ...except for those parts which benefit the left.

"i have no hope left"

The first line of defense is, and has always been, YOU.  Not your representatives, not your lawyer, not a judge.  It's you.  And me.  And everyone.

The first line of defense has always been the people who vote and the people who fight (intellectually, litigiously, or physically).  Too many do neither today and expect someone else to fix the mess.  We fight wars with words on forums and blogs because we don't want to spend the time or stand out by communicating to our elected idiots, or voting, or making a stand.

The curse of the conservative is that we tend to be quiet and mind our own business while the left makes all the noise and gets in your face.  We're too busy working, going to school and raising families to be distracted by sacrificing some time and money to set things straight.  Why should we?  We have elected officials to perform that job for us... right?  Well, not if we don't vote and make some noise of our own. 

It's you.  And me.  And everyone.

We cling to forums and talk radio while the left has mastered all other forms of media.  Even Obama's face has been placed in video games to program the minds of the youth.  Nothing is going to change unless you, me, and everyone makes that change.

So if you have no energy left, if you have no drive left, if you have no spine, if you're not willing to make some sacrifices and if you're waiting for a white knight to come along and save the day, then you are correct.  There is no hope.

Grab a pen, a sword or your checkbook and make a difference.
