Send letters to the congress critters. We don't need another irrelevant money-wasting war on X, we need to get the government out of the way or the nation goes down in flames. Letters of Marque and reprisal (and the implementation thereof) would send a message more sure than any other. Keep bumped.

This is NOT mututally exclusive with Government Military action, nor is it intended to be.

But it IS intended to utilize a fully-Constitutional methodology for employing the seasoned ex-military veterans among our nations' Citizen Militia in the prosecution of a Winnable War against stateless terrorists -- without writing Senator Chuck Schumer a blank check to eliminate all our freedoms and spend untold billions of dollars fighting a war which the Government Military alone, if it has to fight a war on 37 different fronts, will be very hard-pressed to Win.


By the way, Demidog -- Sabrin is a rock. Without my even mentioning your own conversations on this issue, he (of his own initiative) brought up the very same points you have been making about the insanity of past US foreign policy, the disarming of American citizens by Gun Control and our resultant defenselessness in the face of terrorists armed with knives-fer-cryin-out-loud, and the extreme danger of surrendering our freedoms and our right to self-defense in the prosecution of a War in which victory by Government action alone is likely to prove --- well, difficult at best. Sabrin is an absolute rock in defense of Liberty, as I have always said.

Congratulations on this. You know I ignored this thread to my own shame. This is a brilliant proposal and everytime I miss one and fine it later I kick myself.

I live in Ron Paul's district. I was planning on giving him a call Monday morning. I'll be sure to mention my support of this proposal.

I'll be calling to find out what can be done about the Senate's destruction of our liberties via the new wiretapping bill.

I want that bill killed. And opposition to it will exact a high political price.

I know you were addressing demidog, but I've been spreading the word about "Letters of Marque and Reprisals" and concealed carry-on as wide as possible all week. Every time someone poses a helpless "but what can we do", I raise the point. At the bookstore, at the bar, at the dinner party, at the health club, at the supermarket.

It's up to us. We can not go on with our lives as hapless targets. The fedgov has spent literally billions on the problem and it's only getting worse. Time to think out of the box before it becomes a coffin!!!
