Liz, the stupidity of the majority is astounding. I am not innocent by any means, I can tell you the names of more Nascar drivers than I can Congressmen. I have realized my terrible ignorance and stopping it before I become one of “them”. The media feeds the masses what they want and they want to be entertained. They don’t want to think too hard or possess any knowledge of their government- that’s just too much to take in. The old saying, “you’ve made your bed, now go lie in it”, comes to mind.

Storm Rider…I couldn’t agree more with the to do list. The only thing that has to happen for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing. I was watching Fox last night and there is a new documentary coming out in which they interviewed people coming out of the polls. It was really terrifying what I saw. The level of ignorance of those who voted for Obama was unbelievable. All they knew was what the main stream media…can anyone say Pravda?….was feeding them. They didn’t know anything about government….the most basic questions. Who is in control of congress, who represents us…i.e. congress and senate, who is jeremiah Wright, what is Acorn, what is the democratic party platform, what is the republican platform, what do these parties believe?
I think that the media is very close to becoming the propaganda machine for a new socialist government. They spoon feed propaganda to ignorant people who’s only source of learning is the idiot box in their living room, and the people swallow it hook line and sinker. Our nation is in jeopardy…there is no question of that. Rush Limbaugh said he hopes things get so bad that people learn their lesson. I sort of agree…with trepidation.

The good thing about the JPFO message (gun control leads to tyranny) is that it can resonate with fence sitters. And fence sitters (including the gun owning kind) are the ones we need to focus on. For mine though, ending the video with “Wake the fuck up” basically makes it unusable. They focus on the crass language, wonder for a second why we thought we needed that, and never lookat or think of the video again.

Oops,
Sorry, Greg, I see you were addressing Simon rather than me.

Greg,
I never mentioned Christian theology because I believe in separation of chruch and state. I mentioned God only because our founding fathers did so – they said we are all created equal before the law, and our essential human rights (life, liberty and creative pursuit of happiness) are of Divine origin and are therefore unalienable.

Isn’t it weird how anti gun people either look at true statistics and ignor them, or they don’t bother reading them at all.
Why do people like simone choose to be ignorant? Do they think that they will never have to look down the barrel of a gun while being robbed or raped?
Oh and Simon….this has nothing to do with “judging”. So you can stop taking Christian theology out of context. I don’t think that one Hollander in one thousand hollander is qualified to use the Bible for ANYTHING, BECAUSE THEY CAN’T KEEP THEIR PANTS ZIPPED UP LONG ENOUGH TO READ.
Holland deserves what the muslims are doing to it. Soon enough the muslims will be running things there like they were able to do in Iran……

Founding American Values:

1. All men are created equal – equal before the law, i.e.: American Revolutionary human equality – not government-enforced economic equality, i.e.: French Revolutionary and Marxist equality.

2. Our human rights to life, liberty and creative pursuit of happiness are sacred – from God and therefore irreversible – not from the State and thereby reversible.

3. Liberty = freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion (religion non-subversive of liberty), freedom to defend life, freedom to own property creatively attained by the sweat of your brow, freedom to have privacy at home, freedom to petition government for grievances, and government power divided into three branches.

4. The entire reason for human government is to secure our essential human rights as listed above.

5. Just government power can only derive from the informed consent of the governed. All other government power is unjust, and subject to tyranny.

6. When government becomes destructive of our essential human rights as listed above, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish the government; i.e.: we have a right to revolution, if necessary, against government destructive of our essential human rights.

To save the great republic that our founders established I believe we need to do the following:

1. Write and publish articles relating to our founding American Values.

2. Talk about our founding American Values with our families, neighbors and co-workers.

3. Get very involved in School boards and local government, and for some of us, get involved in higher levels of government.

4. Amend our Constitution with term limits for Congress and the Supreme Court, and provide Congress with 2/3 override power for all Supreme Court decisions impacting or relating to the Constitution its self. This amendment should also identify the Supremacy of the laws in our Declaration of Independence over Constitutional law.

5. Enforce the tenth amendment by breaking up all entitlement programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security into fifty state programs. Also, make the Department of Education an advisory agency only – ban all educational matching grants from the federal government to the states – let the states and the people educate their children without the socialist federal state.

6. Cease federal funding of the ACLU and similar organizations.

7. Consider creating non-voting citizen status for those who pay less than 10% in taxes – no voting in federal elections unless you pay at least 10% in federal taxes – no voting in state elections unless you pay at least 10% in total state, local and sales taxes.
