I’ve talked about this on other threads, but there is no one who is going to save us from tyranny. We have got to do it ourselves.

We don’t have to be violent about it. Look at what happened yesterday in North Carolina. About 150 people were arrested protesting the Republican state government. Now, I don’t agree with why they’re protesting, but it is effective in attracting attention.

Will they succeed in returning NC’s government back to progressive nonsense? I don’t know, I sure hope not. But we’re certainly not going to change what is happening on the Federal level if we just post complaints on Free Republic.

You weren't listening -- I was talking about doing it ourselves. The authorities have made it virtually impossible to challenge their "law"/rules/regulations without being in violation thereof (i.e. the accused) and this means you have to argue from a position of weakness.

Given that you now cannot reasonably appeal to the higher-law to defeat the lower "law" what else is there? Violence.
This is why society has been brainwashed [via schools] that "violence is never the answer" and that anyone who resorts to violence is in the wrong. (Thus they invalidate any resistance to their unlawful powers in the minds of many.)

Is it possible to regain liberty w/o bloodshed? Perhaps, but I wouldn't bet on it because those in power are disinclined to give up that power.
