CALL TO ARMS
In the last week, Joe Biden's handlers decided to have Josef Stolen commit an act that was so controversial, so unconstitutional, that it would knock the Afghanistan fiasco off the News Misleadia headlines. It worked, of course, as it would with a willing sycophantic press.
Leaving aside for a moment that this behavior is very reminiscent of Barak Obama's tenure -- and all that the similarities imply -- let's dwell for a moment on his actions.
The two most controversial initiatives and utterances were:
1) That he was going to use Executive Orders to force all businesses with 100 or more employees to mandate vaccinations (or enforce weekly Covid testing), and
2) That if Governors opposed him, he would 'get them out of the way.'
To the first initiative, it is quite clear that this is an wildly unconstitutional act, with utterly no basis in law. That is not how this nation works. If he wanted such a scenario to be implemented, he should have asked Congress to pass a law, had the Senate ratify it, then signed the bill.
To the second statement, that he would 'get governors out of the way': While it sounds like bullying and bravado, Biden actually has a vehicle he can use. It is called the Insurrection Act. It can be used for two reasons: If a State has difficulty with rioting and civil disorder, the Federal government can either be asked by that State, or simply step in, with troops. The second reason it can be invoked is that a State willfully disobeys a Federal law.
The Insurrection Act, written in 1807, has been employed (for the second reason, willful disobedience of a State) several times in our history, one such example (in 1963) being when National Guard troops were deployed to escort black students to the University of Alabama to enforce a desegregation law.
If the States of Florida or Texas refuse to permit or help enforce the (admittedly unconstitutional) the vaccine mandate on companies who employ 100 persons or more, these States risk Biden invoking the Insurrection Act and marching National Guard troops in to force cooperation, or shut those companies down.
The only recourse for those states that wish to defy this unconstitutional Executive Order is to go through the courts on an expedited basis.
So, what are we, the common citizen, to do? Individual acts of violent resistance are possible, but unlikely to cause change, unless very spontaneous and widespread in nature. Organized acts of violence are even less likely to cause change, what with modern surveillance and infiltration techniques available to the Federal powers.
But there is something we can do.
We can stand in SOLIDARITY with one another and RESIST all the unconstitutional acts, both those that exist now, and those that will surely come in the wake of the present lawlessness.
Do you remember, during the Trump administration, how most of his initiatives and efforts were stymied by many who simply refused to comply? Often, they had 'RESIST' on blue bumper stickers on their cars. Through the actions of individuals who were imbedded in government, and those who were not, many of Trumps' initiatives were slow-walked or thwarted. We can do the same.
RESIST. Do not comply with an illegal Executive Order. If you can afford to, make the employer fire you, then lodge a wrongful termination lawsuit, and contact your State to join a class action suit against this illegal executive order. In the meantime, get employment at a company that has 99 employees.
STAND IN SOLIDARITY. Stand together with your compatriots. Do not abandon them. If you know of someone who forced an employer to fire them in defiance of an illegal Federal Executive Order, see if you can support them financially a little. If you can afford to, and are vaccinated already, claim you are not. Force your employer to fire you. File lawsuits. Grind the machine to a halt. Organize, protest, shut things down, just as the left did.
To signal our solidarity, do as the left did: Put a bumper sticker on your car that has the word RESIST on it, to signal to like-minded citizens that we stand together. We will make ours Red, to distinguish ourselves from the leftist.
Do this with absolutely every illegal proclamation that emanates from this out-of-control, Obama-directed White House.
SOLIDARITY. RESIST.
A quick note about this very forum: We have our differences among ourselves. Now is the time to put aside those differences and unite against a common foe: Dictatorship. I don't care if you are pro-vax. I don't care if you are anti-vax. I do care if you oppose tyranny. WE MUST STAND IN SOLIDARITY.
SOLIDARITY. RESIST.
“Me,too” (not the recent movement but the way I and you and others used to say “Laz would hit it” or “Would Laz hit it?”(Sort of a mildly pervy echo of “What would Jesus do?” way back in the old FR days-—lots of Clinton/Obama era fun. When will we get those fun times back?

Thanks Laz! Just got it today, and it’s BEAUTIFUL great job!
So glad you like it! Another batch of three new folk's orders, going out tomorrow!
Well, except for fortes, who still hasn't sent an address.
Add me to Ping list please!
Agreed. It’s certainly more about tyranny than jabs. And WHOSE $$$$$$ is financing tyranny??
As a wise man said, “Starve the beast.”
YOU DA MAN, LAZ!!
The check’s in the mail... 😁
I’m a big believer in customer satisfaction! Please check in and let me know you got your bumper sticker(s) and that they came in good condition!
Arrived in good order and proudly displayed.
Thanks.

Got it thanks!
Arrived and proudly displayed. Will be showing from MN to FL soon!
Thanks Laz!
“think” That is a concept that is now foreign to most who live in the United States of America. If they thought they would not be laying under their beds behind locked doors shaking like a tea cup poodle dog trying to shit a peach seed. Each time “Covid 19 is mentioned.
Mine arrived over a month ago. I regifted one and put one on my school bus.
Then, as a thank you, I sent you a big fruit basket from Harry & David. Did you receive it yet?
The first paragraph is true, the second is BS.
👍👍
Mine looks great on the back windshield among other stickers, 2nd Armored Division, Don’t Tread on Me, TEA Party, NRA, ... one would never know I’m a right-winger. Freep mail me if you want me to send you a photograph of the Resist sticker on the car among the others. Many thanks for all you do.
I was happy to get it quickly, and it was in excellent condition! You did good...thank you!
Until we are all in front of every media outlet in every city, handing out real news, NOTHING changes.
THE ENEMEDIA!
The only vigilantism going on in this country is by the media. They falsely accuse us, then act as judge and jury then get their criminal city animals to try to kill us.
My sticker arrived perfectly. It’s on my car right above my Rifle & Gun Club sticker. A perfect combination.
As a matter of fact I’m about ready to request more, my gun club buddies want some, we have a board meeting tonight where I am going to find out how many more I need. Thank you.
Wonderful! Let me know!
