Wrong.

Yes, yes and yes again.
>In the Declaration of Independence the founders were referring to a foreign government. Unfortunately now we face these same obstacles but with our own government.
What ARE you talking about? These were British Citizens/Subjects/Colonists that did that!
“We must not fail them.”
That’s a fact. We owe it to America’s future generations.
We live in a era of financial serfdom. No one’s property, nor life time of work, the days of which never come back at any price, can be thought of as safe or secure.
Through the monopoly control by the Federal Reserve, and the small, few thousand incestuous true believers in central, monopoly, by force paper money we are just all wondering around in a big, free air, open financial prison.
Wrong.
Amen, Jim. Would that what I fear, what I envision would not be so, as what I believe we face is a horrible thing; yet it seems that we are faced with a question that has been asked - and answered - many times hence, many years ago.
We are called to answer as our birthright demands. We must not shirk our duty, to those that sacrificed for us, and to those yet to inherit their birthright.
May history and our progeny find us worthy in our response. May God have mercy on us all.
What the Republicans and Democrats and the elites are doing is financial rape of future generations. They are forging chains for people not even born yet. And, their children( if they can afford them ) too.
Not when it comes to this bunch I'm afraid.
I'm not preaching violence, I don't want violence, God forbid.
It's a fool that runs to bloodshed.
I'm simply saying that this current administration, our
government is evil, and I don't for-see any limitations in
them striking down an uprising, peaceful or not.

That’s a fact.
We owe it to America’s past generations, as well as her future generations.
Having recently been through an American History film (Disney) presentation that brought me to tears, I cannot repay them but to the affirmative:
Those that sacrificed their fortunes, their lives, their sacred honors, as well as in many cases sacrificed all they and their families have to give, deserve to know that their effort and sacrifice has not been forgotten nor ignored.
We owe them our birthright of Liberty!
Doom on those that bring us to to this brink!
I’ve looked at Dems for twenty years as gut less.
Janet Reno was the last male Democrat with sack. Obama, Biden, Reid all metro limp wrists.
Thanks for posting, Jim. I have always felt that every citizen should be required to read this magnificent document on at least a yearly basis to remind them of what they should be grateful for.
I live in a township that was named after one of the signers. It is a daily reminder for me.
True.
Limp wristed gut-less homo loving, homo participating
cowards.
But not afraid to delegate. Not afraid to have others do
their evil deeds.
These man-gina’s are not going to do anything themselves
that’s true.
But being a coward did’t stop Hitler did it?
All I am saying is that is going to get ugly in this country. And folks had better be prepared, because the enemy
and just gonna roll over and play nice just because we say boo!
My great uncle would talk to my Dad from time to time about the threat to America — how enemies of the U.S. would one day plant a rogue operative in the White House. He didn’t speak this as opinion, but as a solid fact for which he was on alert.
To this day, based on comments here and there, Dad swears that my great uncle was part of a secret group that monitored the government in defense of the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
He was a veteran, a lifelong bachelor who loved his country more than anything. He literally lived out of a garage that he converted into a home, and lived a minimalist lifestyle. He was a gruff and tough man, but sadly, died when I was only three.
I can only imagine what he would think if he were still around to witness this.
Bump for later.
We may be headed that way.
It was not just taxation. Reading “The Founders Second Amendment” by Stephen Halbrook as I am, this book lays out in great detail other things the British did. It was not just taxation, it was not just weapons, it was much more. The British governance was not abiding in their own laws, just like now.
Yes you are correct, I was just pointing out that the LEVEL of taxation they were extremely upset about was much less than what we are taxed today.
Thank you for this post and clarifying what you said. Makes a lot of sense.
