My "thumb in their eye?": A reaction from a real leader in the fight to restore the Republic to "Fiction, Faction and 'Fuktion.'"

Folks,

I received this from a fellow who also has placed everything on line in this fight.

I wonder if "they" are really foolish enough to move on you in such an extra-legal way. There are plenty of very serious people who have made it clear that if they do, it's on. Heck, I've even had people tell me that regarding myself and I don't think I have nearly as devoted and self-declared "champions" as you do (though maybe that's because I'm also not sticking my thumb in their eye as directly).

And I suspect the same goes for (redacted) and (redacted), to varying degrees.

Ironically, the bunch that is most likely to blunder in foolishly are the lawyers. I can see some pretentious Ivy League grad at DOJ deciding you need to be "investigated" to put you in your place and thus starting the ball rolling where a field agent would not, having better sense. But then what do I know? (Redacted), you used to be a prosecutor. What do you think?

It's a shame to think that, for those of us who dare to be public gadflies, what really keeps our door from being kicked in in the middle of the night, our dogs shot and MP-5s stuck in the faces of our wives and kids is no longer the rule of law and the bill of rights but rather the implied threat that rough (and competent) men will respond in spades. Tell me we are not at that point.

To which I replied, "So, you want me to lie to you? ;-) It's not the law or morality that's stopping them, that's for sure."

One other thing that I didn't tell him in response, but that I have said before in a number of ways, in a number of venues. I don't think, in the present circumstances, that Holder and Company can feel confident moving on ANY patriotic American, leader like him, scribbler like me or just plain average joe.

There will be no more free Wacos.

NONE.

Their previous bad conduct has seen to that.

And they're worried about my thumb in their eye? They ain't seen nothin' yet.

Over the last few decades there have been many movements to force the feds to obey the law but things keep going down hill. No one wants to be the first to die in any revolution.

"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.
