Revolution Is In the Air

Americans are furious. Nothing is going right, & daily we see our country becoming the laughingstock of the world. Where we were once a beacon for millions, leading the world on all fronts, bastion of freedom, rich & self-sufficient, we now lag far behind, & the snickering wolves are sure we'll soon crater. They are closing in for the kill. we have a person in the White House who admits he hates our traditions--he even wants to redesign our flag!?!--& is doing everything possible to slough off our sovereignty & leave us defenseless. For a long time, now I've been monitoring the chat rooms & news forums, & lately, I've seen an escalation of that anger, as abuse after abuse goes unchallenged, for the most part. Now, folks are starting to seriously talk of revolution. With guns. Death. No prisoners kind of fighting. I hope it doesn't come to that, as war is always terrible, but the PTBs are setting us up for it. They want it, since they would then have an excuse for complete crackdown on all freedoms. If that happens, we'll all go under. The only reason we might not is that most of the military are saying they're just as angry, & are using the same violent rhetoric, & wish to protect us from the PTBs, not fight for them. No real American wants the government muscling private citizens around the way the various bureaucrats have been doing. The EPA, which can force you to lose your property, or at least tell you what you can do on your own property...the teachers' union, the fat senators with lifetime paychecks that far surpass the salaries of lesser mortals, the funding of agendas & organizations that directly go against the peoples' will--even ignoring votes & laws--the taxes, taxes, TAXES...ALL THIS MUST STOP...say Americans. So far, those in D.C., & the presidunce & his unelected czars, are not listening. I see it coming, no matter how much I dread it. Do you? What are you going to do about it? CAN we stop it, & still stop the outlaws in Washington? I really don't know. This is way beyond mere politics. One method or another, this is war. And on the internet, over & over, I read: "My guns are ready." I'm just sayin.' Maggiepie “If you will not fight when you can easily fight without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure & not too costly; you may come to the moment when you have to fight with all the odds against you & only a precarious chance of survival. There may be even a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves." ~ Winston Churchill

I'm glad someone had the guts to say this on here. btw, is that quote from the same Winston Churchil that led the English against the Nazis? Of course it is, and didn't Obama totally disrespect his memory back awhile ago somehow? Or am I thinking of something else.

Yes. The Presidunce returned Winnie's bust to England! PTBs = Powers That Be. Sorry...slipped into text mode, there, & I don't even text! By the way, MyLot has NOT been sending me notices even when I get first responses! I had NO IDEA I was up to 3 pages of replies in one thread, so if I haven't replied, that's probably why!!

I agree that the air is getting stifling. The rape of our rights and state sovereignty is not going unnoticed anymore. I do believe that they will call martial law to disarm the public. I also believe that most people will refuse. I see this getting much worse before it gets better. I just posted a discussion on DHS carry around portable DNA scanners. WTF? I hope more people wake up to the atrocities before the next election. This is our best way to avoid a revolution.

Mags,you are only echoing what I have been saying for the last 30 years. One of my favorite Thomas Jefferson quotes is that in order to maintain our freedoms we would have to have a revolution every 200 years or so...some quote him as saying 20 years but I believe the 200 years is correct. By all means, do not tone down your rhetoric. As more and more people realize what is happening we will grow in numbers. Washington needs to sit up and take notice and change their ways or the people will rise up and make them!
