I link to that quote every chance I get. And regarding that “too early to shoot the bastards” part. I keep asking, “if not now, when?”

That is, when IS it time to take the lead from our founding fathers. I personally don’t have an answer to that. I can only say “not today” and I have no future date in mind. It is not about future dates, it is about future government actions. But I don’t want to be the frog slowly boiled alive either.

I think the results of the 2010 elections will hold the key. I honestly believed (and still do) that if Obama had lost there would have been the most serious urban rioting in the history of the US. If Democrats stay in power in 2010, there may be active resistence from the other side, and they have a lot more self sufficient within their ranks, not to mention NRA members. They will take our founding fathers as their template.

I think you are correct, and I also think he got some votes from people just to avoid this, but I say, let them riot, I can always buy more ammo.

Think about what Aleksandr Solzhenitsnyn accomplished. Did he erode the legitimacy of the Soviet state by popping caps in a few Red Army soldiers? No.

Not everyone can write with the brilliant insight and emotion of Solzhenitsyn, but we can each play our part. The only unacceptable response is to do nothing, or to “curse, cringe, and obey”...

Is it possible that you will find the answer to your question HERE.

"When complying with the tyranny becomes more difficult than just shooting the bastards, the bastards will begin to be assassinated, and in rather large numbers."

Agreed on all points. We need to get over this paralysis about urban rioting however, as we are held hostage in our own nation with that threat. Frankly, it would provide an opportunity to cull the worst elements from the herd.

I think we may have a clearer idea after 2010. Absolutely.

As long as we have a chance of electing Sarah in 2012, it’s no time.
