It’s so bad that there is a 0% chance of restoring our freedoms without using brute force.

I hate to say it but as much as I admire Glenn Beck and listen to him, he's my 2nd favorite talkshow host (Savage is first), I sometimes have to disagree with him on the Gandhi and Martin Luther King peace thing. I sure hope he is right but what do you do when the other side keeps hitting and hitting you with the intent to hurt and destroy you? I'd like to call his show and ask him that and add that "even an animal when cornered with nothing to lose will fight, whether they are tigers, wolves, rabbits, 8 week old kittens or even a day old baby chick."

The tactics of King and Gandhi did work because the British, as tough as they were, had a strong set of morals and lines they would never cross. The Communists and Nazis do not have moral limits. If we had Gandhi or King vs. the Nazis or Communists, the order would be "hose 'em" and that would be it.

I was a typical nerd. I was into radio/electronics, space and computers. I was bullied a lot as kid. My father and especially, my mother, taught me that if you keep getting hit on by bullies, you have to fight back instead of take it. I remember taking it an taking it complaining to Mom but she said, you have to stand up for yourself and if you don't "I'll beat you." She added, "you will get hurt out there but stand your ground." I did fight back and even got sent to the principal's office in 2nd grade (1974). Both the bully and I got paddled as punishment. After that, we became very good friends. One thing still worried me was a note was going to be sent home. I went home, nothing, I kept my mouth shut. Days and weeks passed, nothing. I kept it secret until 1994 when I told Mom about it. She knew I stood up for myself but didn't know about the paddling. She didn't care and she would not have gotten mad at me since I did the right thing. However, I did learn one lesson, sometimes life ain't fair when you do the right thing.

Unlike my bully, we can never be friends with these thugs, they want to tell us what to do and how to live our lives. Ifwe don't have the guts to beat them politically and stand up to them, I fear that physical means will be the only way down the line. I pray to God that it doesn't happen, but if I had to choose them or us, I choose us.
