I just have not yet given up on the rule of law. The situation is dire but not yet cast in stone. I believe we still have a chance to put the tiger back into its cage.
If you do not like the words tea party, try ‘patriots’, ‘true Americans’ or even ‘revolutionaries’. The tea party idea of 2009 is getting back to true American values.
The hope is that rallies will rejuvenate patriotic values. They are a place where like minded patriots can see that they are not alone in their thinking. During the Vietnam war patriots did not know their neighbors thought the same as them. All they saw on the TV were the protestors. Rallies are a way to learn. I heard countless stories of Americans never before going to a rally or being politically active.
Of the people I hang around with, they are all preparing for darker days, as we should. If one is smart, for any gun registered, one needs to have a back up. You don’t want the government to find ammo in your house that does not match the registered guns.

Trooprally, believe it or not neither have I given up on the rule of law. I say things and people think I have given up but it is only because we cannot understand one another normally because it is seldom meant to be that we may understand each other. It just happens to be the world in which we live. I hang my head because I am about as understandable as someone not understandable in the least. It is not because I want to be that way, I suppose it is because of the times we as Americans are witnessing. Oh to be in once upon a time land.
I agree with you whole hearted the TEA Party initially was about getting back to true American values. I did minor participation, sort of around the edges but basically watch from a distant. I did my civic duty too and voted, then watched as the TEA Party was discussed, cussed, and driven into the ground and our ever loving freedom seekers in the media pronounce the TEA Party dead, as the democRATs rejoiced with the rinos. It broke my heart. I believe it also broke many of the spirits of those American that did participate in the TEA Party. It was by design this was done to American Patriots, in my humble opinion. An idea was given life and then the politicians and the media killed it as quickly as they could. I also believe there was help to do what was done to the TEA Party from outside our nation. The TEA Party, if not dead, can rise again. As you stated, lessons have been learned, if the same mistakes are not made again. One little problem ... the politicians and the media will do all in their power to kill anything which they perceive to be a threat to them and their power. Not knowing enough on how to defeat the politicians and the media myself, I can only pray it will not be the same fate as was before for a TEA Party renaissance, should one occur.
I too believe as you. The like minded of our nation are being deluged with misinformation. We outnumber them which spread the misinformation in our nation but once more the politicians and the media cannot allow that information to slip to the public. When going to the World Stage then another factor which enters the picture becomes quite real as we now are witnessing the beginning of global conflict. That though is another story. The public would be emboldened if the TEA Party were to rise again and those that rule us want us downtrodden and depressed thus their evil game we see played out each day. Therefore we see and hear their lies constantly and have little means by which to turn back the tide or do we? FRiend, I do not know.
I agree FRiend each should prepare for dark days. And if the dark days do not come, we shall rejoice. If the dark days do come, we shall be prepared. I will go quickly for I am old should dark days come. I have my young ready I pray. We have a plan if they are alive after the beginning of the next beginning. I will not call it The End for I do not have insight enough into our nation's future to call it The End. My young have been preparing for a long time. It may sound crazy to those that do not prepare but the story of the ant and the grasshopper has been told many a time around this house. I think my young listened. If I am wrong and they are not prepared it will be because my young chose to ignore me. If my young ignored me, so what, I ignore me too sometimes. Perhaps they will join me in flight as we leave without having put up a fight.
May God Keep Us! May God Bless Us All and America! And May God's Will Be Done! God's Will Being Done Scares the entire world. No doubt here, if God wants America Alive, America will be alive. Good typing to you and good typing from you. I will not hang yet. Well if they come for me I'll try to send a message.
If the jack booted thugs come to your house to 'inspect' your firearms and ammo, the correct response is resistance. I'm not telling you to shoot anyone, but you need to get your head in the right gear for the speed at which this game is being played out.
Fortunately, we still have a small window of time before either of the scenarios above becomes a reality. Time enough to raise the roof and get the bums in Washington to listen to us.
Yes, it's a wonderful thing to reinvigorate people's patriotism, but if they haven't been reignited these last four years, there's little hope of waking them now. Those who are awake, already see the hand writing on the wall, and know that something evil this way comes. And it's coming at a gallop.
I'm all for rallying the troops together to speak with one mind and voice about what's going on, but I'm telling you that that voice had better be turned up to 11. Peaceful rallies with waving flags and banners will inspire us, but they'll do little to put the Commie traitors on notice that we mean business.
We need to make a noise, or we're just singing to the choir.
