Shot Heard Round the World

[Lost Cause]

Today April 19th, 1775, our experiment called the United States began. At Lexington and Concorde, the rowdy "Yankee Doodles" Fired on his majesty's armed forces in the first armed resistance to England's rule. My question is, do you think Americans today would resist an oppressive government or rule with as much resolve? Do you think we are way to comfortable with our material possessions to feel that threatened again? We are already pissing and moaning about the long lines at airports and such in our present conflict. If military rule was instituted on every street in America, would Americans take up arms?
The resistance began when the British commander was sent to seize the colonist's weapons. Since the move is on globally to disarm all citizens "for our safety and security", and so far, no nation has had an uprising from it's "subjects", do you think America will follow suit into the new enslavement? (Those with the guns make the rules)
Hmmmmmm?

There are some Americans who would resist. The ones with guns. The fact is many people would just go along with whatever was imposed on them. Make no mistake, in that The US Government would do whatever was nescessary to maintain control, Kent State,WACO, Ruby Ridge,Elian Gonzalas are just a few examples of what the government is capable of. April 19th is also the 7th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing.

How can you throw Elian Gonzalez in with WACO and Kent State?

They merely enforced the law, and a father's right to be with his child.

The precise reason for my thread is the timing of the date, and an e-mail I recieved from Gun Owners of America. An article raised concern on a new U.N. world court that could prosecute any person from any country without the rights of the citizen's home country afforded them. It could dismantle our Constitution by giving a foreign power dominance over our life and liberty at their will and political agenda.
Myself, I would defend my life and liberty by taking the life and liberty of those blue helmeted bastards! Sic Semper Tyrannis!

In the Gonzalas case they stormed the house in the middle of the night, I have a problem with that. As for Kent State, it wasThe Ohio National Guard, The Guard over reacted, They were dispatched by Governor Rhodes, who knew full well that the guard had live ammunition in there guns. Unarmed students were killed. For throwing rocks. Sound familiar? Maybe I shouldnt have included the 2 examples, But I thought they were relevent in pointing out what the government is capable of doing.

Did anyone ever notice that Fritz Hollings was Governor of South Carolina when the Confederate flag was raised over the SC Capital in 1963 or that Al Gores father voted againt the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Did anyone notice that Richard Nixon was a proponent of treatment for drug addicts? Did anyone notice that while running for President in 1992 Governor Bill Clinton stopped campaigning for a day to return to Arkansas to preside over the execution of a blackman convicted of murder, Just to show he was tough on crime. Im pretty much convinced that their all frauds.

Hey 'OL Man!

Unfortunately, the two parties can be combined into Republicrats! The Dems want to be our Mommy, the Repubs want to be our Daddy. The only sane choice is Libertarian! I refer to the UN nations as "Turd" World!

P.S. I used to go to some righteous parties at the Ventura Hells' Angels clubhouse! I fell in love with that area.

In a way the Dems have become Socialists and the Republicans have become Democrats. By todays standards John F. Kennedy would be considered a Republican

 

[Starblayde]

Republicans...the right wing party

Democrats...the other right wing party

 

[heterotic]

Republicrats and Demmicans... I've known some wearers of the blue beret, great people. But the more monolithic organizations get, the less they seem to be able to care about individuals. Do we really want the biggest concentration of power ever to get even more powerful?
