"Camps": We are not "good Germans." We will not acquiesce in our own enslavement.

Pete has a post here that everyone needs to read. Here is the bill it refers to.

My attitude is this:

What? You think we weren't paying attention to the central lesson of the 20th Century?

You may build the camps, we will not go.

Try to put us in them by force, and we will kill you.

Try to fill them with political prisoners, and those of us you have not snared will break the wire, shoot the guards, slit the throats of the commanders, burn down the businesses of those who collaborate with tyranny to support them and blow up the rails, roads and bridges leading to them.

We are not "good Germans." We will not acquiesce in our own enslavement.

Build the camps if it pleases you. Use them for tyranny, and watch what happens.

Section 2, (4)to meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security.

It is exactly the "other appropriate needs" that is always going to bite someone in the a**.

(6) required to consist of a complete operations command center, including 2 state-of-the art command and control centers that will comprise a 24/7 operations watch center as follows:

(A) one of the command and control centers shall be in full ready mode; and

(B) the other shall be used daily for training; and

So if there is daily training, there is also a full-time 'staff' that is must come with this bill.

Fun for all. Even if it were merely restricted to 'acceptable use' as normal people define it, who would like to go to a SuperDome type environment by force?

Not me.

Anonymous said...: You're awfully late to this party. The camps are called "prisons", and they currently incarcerate 1 in 100 Americans. At least half of these Americans are political prisoners who committed only victimless "crimes". I'm not seeing much of a backlash by 3%'ers against prohibition in all its forms. Has there ever been a blog post here about 'write your congressmen to legalize heroin and prostitution, and then pardon convicts'?

Conservatives are starting to learn that in order to be allowed to live as Conservatives, they must act politically as Libertarians: Any Conservative lifestyle prohibition they impose on Liberals becomes tactical and strategic support for the Liberals imposing lifestyle prohibitions back on them.

Someday Conservatives will learn that in order to be allowed to live as Conservatives, they must act politically as Anarchists, because the Libertarians and the Constitutional Restorationists are wrong: All politics is poisoned fruit of the tree of war. The formalizing of the means of imposing a lifestyle on people is itself the problem.

Freedom will come when enough Conservative church-going wives say through gritted teeth: the behavior by the FLDS neighbors is horrible. It is abhorrent to God. I hate it. But if I ask my brother-in-law the Sheriff to run them out of town, soon enough we ourselves will be right back in the doom we so narrowly escaped.; January 30, 2009 at 12:17 AM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
