>>Did we throw the baby out with the bathwater this week? Is the baby mid-air?
They boiled the bathwater with the baby in it this week. All we’re doing now is cleaning the bowl.
Cheer up people. Collapse precedes Score Settling.
American rights and the Constitution have become Ground Zero.
We’ve spiked the baby like an end zone celebration.
I cancelled my Amazon and Wal Mart online accounts today because they have become instruments of the suppression of my freedoms. It may seem a small thing in the face of all that is against the ones of us who still know the values our nation was founded upon. I believe Americans have grown so confident that they would never have to face the conflicts our founders did that they will awake too late. However, I feel that every dime I can deny my now self-sworn enemies is a good thing. I also believe that this is about much higher and important things than just our national pride. I wonder what Lot did before the Lord called on him to take his family away before the fire and brimstone hit. Maybe Christians should be thinking along those lines too. Perhaps Revelation 18;4 is our only option. How? Only God can lead us.
I’ll take Civil Disobedience for .308, Alex.
The federal government is now an alliance of branches, devoted to the preservation of government itself, separate, not from each other, but from the American people and dedicated to tyranny.

Great statement. I wish I could condense it into a tagline.
“Sound familiar? It has been the playbook of the American left for over sixty years.
Colonel Sellin is the author of Restoring the Republic: Arguments for a Second American Revolution . “
First off, I don’t care what the origins of the Left’s planning and ambitions is or are. They are a given and not necessarily illegal. I care about the fact that the supreme court has thrown out the Law and has imposed it’s own judgment in it’s place in the matter of Obama care and Deviant marriage.
Secondly the good sir has it askew, the revolution is being perpetrated AGAINST US RIGHT NOW. If we rise up in resentment against it WE sure as HELL aren’t the revolutionaries. We are The American People, RESPECTORS of Law and Order.
What we must do now is form up in a group, define our lawful Constitutional concerns, demand those in the respective positions of responsibility do their job and, failing that, damn well do it ourselves. I don’t see any other way.

Take each of these themes and write them down on a piece of paper: the communist intent, the GOP complicity, the Islamic connection, the total depth of treachery, the will to exert control by any means. Then, take all the solutions that are being floated out there by our “leaders” (including senator Cruz). Draw a line from the solution to the problems if fixes. You will not have a line drawn to depth of treachery and the will to exert control.
Civil disobedience is a very powerful force if enough people participate (i.e., it is properly organized). It drove the Brits out of India, Morsi out of Egypt, the Soviets out of Russia, and the communists out of Poland and E. Germany.
This is a really good piece. Spot on. Thank you for posting it, Randall.
Collapse is inevitable. Civil disobedience is necessary. Be as wise as serpents & as harmless as doves. Resist without “showing” resistance.
They want chaos & disarray. Deprive them of it. Co-ordinate, get organized, small groups to larger & larger groups. Don’t “protest”- have a picnic or potluck or softball game, whatever, where people are enjoying life with your purpose as a backdrop or a bold decorative element. This will send a subtle message & be good for *our* morale + the obvious accomplishments. Provide a contrast for observers to choose from.
And what does a collapse look like?
For believing Christians we must accept this is the beginning of the tribulation. There will be some horrible times ahead. But that just means we’re that much closer to His return. Then things will turn around very quickly. And that’s the thinking that will keep me sane.
There is still a lack of understanding on FR of how completely cultural conservatives have lost the under-35 demographic. Support for this decision among them is nearly universal. It’s going to be difficult to organize any sort of effective civil disobedience when your most effective foot soldiers are all on the other side.
Civil disobedience or collapse? Totally agree. CWII is on the way.
Excellent article.
