I understand the reluctance to use violence. The problem is that we are being forced to move so far away from the founding principles of this country. We have e-mailed, sent faxes, demonstrated in Tea Parties and we are ignored and/or marginalized. The little people do not know what is in their best interest, you see. Something will have to give. I hope it does not come to violence, but Jefferson did say that the tree of liberty needs to be refreshed from time to time with the blood of tyrants. When the government of the people, by the people and for the people is stolen by those who know better than we do what is in our best interest, something will have to give.
AMEN to your post!!!!!
...and Patriots.
Don't forget that part.
