An Enslaved People Cannot Claim Their Rights

See additional comments on Tea Party Nation.

A free people [claim] their rights as derived from the laws of nature, and not as the gift of their chief magistrate.

Thomas Jefferson, Rights of British America, 1774

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If Thomas Jefferson was correct, what has happened to the people of this country? pResident Obama does not dictate our rights as “chief magistrate”. And he has no authority to claim our natural law rights as a gift from him. This is not a point of discussion: it is a fact.

A king without subjects is not a king. When I declare that Obama is not my President, it means something. But its meaning is not enough to cause a change in the state of our Liberty. Unless more people stand up for their convictions. What kind of people do not stand up for their rights? We saw the consequences of apathy and fear throughout history. Stalin, Hitler and Mao should be more than enough for us to realize what is at stake. But few people are willing to take their Sacred honor, stand up and do their duty to their country and their God.

Until when?

The borders are not secure from illegal aliens, terrorists or disease. The nation is bankrupt ten times (minimum) of our annual GDP. We sacrifice the lives of our children in wars to promote Islam. Our government illegally wiretaps everyone but the Republican party stopped the debate on legislation in the Senate to start limiting the NSA. The number of scandals under this administration continue to grow.

I could add to this list but to what purpose? Can you imagine trying to explain the state of our government to any of the founding fathers? Can you imagine the disgust that we would evoke in their eyes by our apathy?

The people in this country will awake in mass at some point. When that dam breaks and the floodgates are opened, will we act with Sacred honor or with retribution? We are enslaved and do not have the rule of law in this country. President Jefferson’s statement is true but so is the converse:

An enslaved people cannot claim their rights as derived from the laws of nature, they can only receive what rights are bestowed upon them by their slave owners. We know this to be self evident. We know that our children are enslaved by our inaction. We know that change is coming: but it will not be peaceful and it will not be over quickly.

Options?

Trust in the Lord with all Thine Heart. Prepare. Love your children enough to free them.
