Stand up and fight – the time is now - (Help fight S. 909, the 'Pedophile Protection Act')

Every day we lose more of our lives, our liberties and our property. At what point do we stand up and fight?

Every week there is another hostile takeover of a bank and a business. CEOs fired, auto-company budgets cut while Obama adds trillions in debt to the budget for the rest of us. A "cap and tax" limit on what we can do while arbitrarily taxing us at the same time. They are even mandating what kind of cars we can drive. Obama's power grab is devouring everything in his path.

Are we going to sit back until Newsweek's cover reads "We are all Communists Now"?

Let me tell you a story I just read in 1 Samuel 13 and 14 that I believe is more fitting than even David and Goliath. That's because we have more than one giant to face.

Jonathan is a guy not a lot of people write about. King Saul's son and David's bosom buddy. But he was more than that.

The Israelites were under the control of the Philistines. They occupied the land and had the power. And much like the gun-control lobby, they wanted to be sure nobody had a way to defend themselves:

There were no blacksmiths in the land of Israel in those days. The Philistines wouldn't allow them for fear they would make swords and spears for the Hebrews. So whenever the Israelites needed to sharpen their plowshares, picks, axes or sickles, they had to take them to a Philistine blacksmith.

– 1 Samuel 13:19

No Second Amendment. Just government control.

So on the day of the battle none of the people of Israel had a sword or spear, except for Saul and Jonathan.

– 1 Samuel 13:22

Only two...

I thought this passed? Is it still up for vote.....if yes I’m in and will VOICE my “JUST SAY NO” vote

Thanks neverdem.

While I sympathize with the cause, this is a distraction.

Freedom-loving people need to go after the cause, rather than being led off in a hundred or more different directions.

The problem is galloping Socialism.

Don't be distracted by sidebars.

It's like SAM Defense.

I’m reading w/my phone so research takes a LONG time. Do you know who sponsored the bill? I can look on the computer tomorrow if you don’t know..

[Freedom2specul8]

Meaning too many attacks going to too many targets at the same time? That’s not so bad. Weakens the enemy does it not? Send out the big guns for the cause...?

Thanks for the ping!

Links don't work after the first two. I just copied code with relative links. Click on the keyword s909. Maybe you can access the other thread. I couldn't, but maybe that's because I have too many windows open.
