People won’t try it. Almost all of them will just capitulate . . . and rationalize their behavior. The few loners who do not give in will be persecuted.
Democrats are the lawless ones...
Except this time there'll be no sympathetic press to cover it.
“Civil Disobedience”?
Obama lays awake at night praying to The Prophet for exactly that.
For the last 6 years he has been trying to goad his opposition (Patriotic Americans) into some kind of action that he can use to justify coming down on us with a heavy government boot.
He doesn’t need much - just look at what he did with Ferguson. Look at what he is doing with Israel.
Time to send a memo...
I suggest using the following wording in it somewhere...
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security
Agree, with the radical American haters in charge now, they will put down peaceful protesters with whatever force they think they need. It will take millions to rise up and be willing to stop a tyrannical government bent on the destruction of the US and the West.
OK, and then what if peaceful doesn’t work?
I think we are almost at the anarchy-tipping point - a blatantly lawless Administration egging on the half of the nation that gets hand-outs (and their libtard enablers) versus the other half of America that is getting pretty damned fed up.
There are more and more things that the mantra "we will not comply" applies to.
Heck, there's a decent % of tax-payers starting to think "go to hell IRS" - and when millions just refuse to file anymore....
"Government...derive their just powers from the CONSENT of the governed."
Tired of a corrupt financial system? You CONSENT to it every time you spend or accept an FRN.
Tired of a corrupt, criminal tax system? You CONSENT to it every time you file your taxes.
Tired of the destruction of the 2nd Amendment? You CONSENT to it every time you walk into a gun store and submit to an un-Constitutional background check, or when you ask permission to carry a firearm (already your right).
Tired of an out of control government? You consent to it every time you choose to participate - asking permission to build on your land, submitting to onerous regulations and other nonsense requirements.
So, in the end, we really have no one to blame but ourselves. We keep squealing about Obola and the Dumbocrats, but it's really our fault, because no matter how bad things get, we continue to CONSENT.
It's far past time to stop consenting. But there's a problem with that: It requires FAR too much sacrifice. We are not about to risk our jobs, our homes, our cars, our lives for freedom. It's just too much to ask. Somehow, we consider ourselves to be far more special than the Founders. In truth, we lack the balls and courage.
Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave? Sure it does, but over the land of the free and home of the brave? Not so much.
If they’re a 501C-3 or otherwise beholden contractually to the state for benefits, then they are required to do the states bidding under the terms of the contract.
It’s the same (in my opinion and observations) for anyone else operating under some type of license, grant, benefit, permit etc... from the Feds, or a state or local government. Those are all essentially contracts, and these cases always lose in court because the court is actually looking at it from a contractual standpoint, even if that means the precedents for the ruling have to be traced back through multitudes of cases and the minutia of 150 years or so of law.
