Yielding to tyranny is a shameful way to die
American Thinker ^ | Robert Arvay

Posted on 12/02/2020 3:48:49 AM PST by RoosterRedux

We have ample warning of what the radical left will do to us should it prevail in today's power struggle. Leftists have boldly announced it. They will trash our past; indoctrinate our children; and invite millions of noncitizens, who have no regard for our values, to vote. They will wreck our economy with predictably disastrous regulations in the name of saving the planet. Our enemies, correctly sensing weakness, will go to war against our national interests. Finally, the system will be rigged so there will never be another honest election. Having seized power, the left will never relinquish it without bloodshed. It never has. History testifies to it.

What is more valuable to a free man than his freedom? Is it safety? Comfort? Love? His very life? Whatever treasures one can name, each of them, without freedom, is sooner or later forfeit.

Have we learned that?

A number of Americans has apparently forgotten that.

Interesting that Stallone is maybe one of the few Hollywood guys with us.

The only way to avoid such tyranny is to sever a grouping of free states away from the current country. We cannot coexist with those whose primary objective is our destruction. Enough pretending that somehow “unity” can ever be achieved.

“ Our enemies, correctly sensing weakness, will go to war against our national interests.”

This article gets at the point that, while the rats trash our domestic policy, their disastrous foreign policy will fail to appease our enemies to be merciful.

First, they make lists.

Then, they ridicule us.

Then, they harass us.

Then, they disarm us.

Then, they arrest us.

Then, they imprison us.

Then, they execute us.

Then, they think they have silenced us.

Plans to build “low-yield” nuclear weapons that U.S. military commanders have said are needed to deter comparable nuclear threats from China and Russia are also likely to be shelved by an incoming Biden administration.

The cycle is upside down.

Bondage should be at the bottom.

Spiritual faith, courage, liberty, etc. should be on the way up, not down.

Selfishness, complacency, apathy, etc. should be on the way down.

Worth repeating.

"The withdrawal of a State from a league has no revolutionary or insurrectionary characteristic. The government of the State remains unchanged as to all internal affairs. It is only its external or confederate relations that are altered. To term this action of a Sovereign a 'rebellion' is a gross abuse of language."

"Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever."

President Davis.

What many fail to realize is that the window of freedom is now mostly closed, with only a small crack open at bottom window sill - between now and January 21. One thing is certain - the Communist surrogates must never be allowed to gain office and control over our military. If that happens we will be toast without a meaningful ability to resist. We have truly let the clock run down to that infamous last second play in the game. If Trump has no checkmate to play, we need to know now because after January 21 it will be too late.

They better not execute me. That would really piss me off.

No telling what I might do.;-)

President Trump has no checkmate to play. This isn’t chess or any other game with rules. The Left has ruthlessly rigged the system in their favor and there is no way back now.
