Aesop:
Liberty is not ordered by mail from Amazon. Freedom grows on trees exactly nowhere, at any time in human history. The colonists didn’t vote King George out of office. The Redcoats weren’t thrown out in the midterms. Their removal was by shellfire, musketry, and bayonets. If you thought liberty was going to descend from heaven indefinitely on a velvet cushion as the gift from a benevolent deity and thoughtful forefathers, you’re in for a severe disappointment, exactly as some of you have already sussed out. Freedom will not drop out of the skies until communists and tyrants (but I repeat myself) do so as well.
To get those things, you have to go out on the plains of tyranny and kill the predators, if you want the red meat of freedom in your bellies. ‘Twas ever thus, and ever shall be. You may not be the ones doing the trigger pulling or helicopter passenger unloading, come the day, but you damned sure better be down with those who are. If you can’t find 3AM friends, you had better be one, and looking for the opportunity. And if you get the chance, even fleetingly, to join in the festivities, you’d better take full advantage of same. Or you’ll regret it, all the way to the boxcars, and while sitting in exactly the very camps you imagined would never return. Of which your unsleeping enemies now speak openly.
If that’s too hard for you to wrap your head around, let alone do, you won’t have to ever worry again about what to think, or do, or how to live your lives. Because the chances are surpassing excellent that someone else will make those decisions for you every minute of your miserable remaining existence. Ask the rest of the Anglosphere (formerly-great Britain, Oz, NewZ, and Canada) how that’s working out for them this very minute. As usual, we’re the only ones left, and things here are looking sketchy at best, and ominously doubtful. Pretty much as in all such times.
If you’re not up for such an animating struggle, stay on the porch with the little dogs. Maybe you’ll be the unwitting receiver of the blessings of liberty anyways. Maybe not. And in the meantime, “May your chains rest lightly on your wrists, and may posterity forget that you were ever our brethren.”
Best article to date and I’m all in!! Let the bell ring‼️
All in!! I agree 100%
What an amazing quote.
.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
― Samuel Adams
Outstanding Rob.
Good article. Good company.
I agree with your point but you’re wrong about us being alone. We are actually behind the curve,France,Germany all over Europe and S. America people are hitting the streets and they’re pissed. A Mayor in Brazil got his ass whipped by his constituents the other day. It was hilarious and just what we need here add congressman and senators to that list.
Outstanding Wes, my mind body and spirit are in this fight 100%, as to the pacifist that wants to ride it out for whatever reason good luck. What we are calling for our forefathers in their wisdom, knew this day would come and it has arrived. The constant sniping about the lunatic rage is disgusting, cowards all of them as far as I am concerned. I will not mince words call me what you will it is of no concern.
Site worth visiting daily.
The photo of the ARVN police chief publicly executing a Vietcong sends an inverted message today. Actually we, the U.S. patriots are going to have to become the American equivalent of the VC in order to take back our country. It eventually worked for the communist cong, it will work for us on freedom’s side. Voting, political activism forgetaboutem. Guerrilla up America. Time is up.
You bet, are enemy’s think they have won the fight already, just as they had the headhunters in nam protecting oil company interests, bounty’s should work just fine or search and destroy you pick.
Just joking about the 9th CAV, they were not protecting oil company’s or receiving bounty’s bad joke.
This from the guy who spent the better part of 2020 saying that anyone who didn’t mask-up (or isolate, shut down, cower in place, social distance, double-mask, and otherwise follow every Faucian dictate) was literally Hitler.
FUCK THAT GUY.
TWICE
Save our anger. So he is good with words but had shitty discernment before. Maybe he’s grown up. Good. We’ve got bigger fish to fry.
He laughed at me when I told him ebola was patented before it hit in Africa. Doesn’t matter now.
