Our rights haven't gone anywhere...it's just that we've allowed black robed tyrants to tell us what our rights are. No court can take away what God Himself bestowed upon us. There's a big difference between rights and the law. The law isn't sacred, but our rights are. So we need to stop letting the courts tell us which rights we can and can't "keep".
"Speak for yourself here. I’ve done the work. I’ve written. I’ve called. I’ve dug deeply to give to (R) candidates to retake the Senate the last time. Wish I had the money back that they squandered."
Thank you for your hard work. You've done about as much as one man, by himself, can do. That's why I say it's time for us to go out and coax, encourage and lead the silent majority out of their meek little hidey-holes, and train them to be fanatics. Imagine if there were tens of thousands more of you, all calling, writing letters, and sending money to Tea Party conservative candidates. How much more effective would that be than just you doing all those things by yourself? It will take coaching, teaching and a lot of encouragement, but if you can turn one meek, wavering conservative into a fanatic, then have them go out and do what you're doing, the compound effect will be amazing.
Rather than trying to fight this battle as a bunch of individuals, we need to become community organizers. That may run counter to our nature, but we just need to get over it. We can accomplish a helluva lot more building a unified team than we can as thousands of individuals.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Here we disagree - unless you are now advocating that we commence firing.
Laws in our country are enforced at the point of a sword or barrel of a gun. Just try to exert your rights and see. When you are convicted and refuse to pay a fine, just see the sword or gun come out.
Every right in our Constitution (as near as I can tell) has been reduced.
