Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security becomes more and more like the Committee for State Security, to the point where people are randomly stopped on roads for no other reason than they're there. I know this because a friend of mine in Tucson was stopped like that just the other day as he and his friends were coming back from a trip into New Mexico. They held them there for about an hour, asking the same questions over and over again, even though they had no justifiable reason. How long until the start asking for our travel papers?
So, I ask you this: At what point does this growing tyranny become unbearable?
I want to know, people. We need an agreement, a set line beyond which the government may not cross without suffering rebellion. Because no matter where we set that line, it will be crossed. Does anyone else see that? We are not standing up to these people enough, and when we do, they do not listen. Senators say we're "not concerned about pork spending" when that's a bald-faced lie to stifle argument from the few dissenters in Congress. The President continues to call for more and tighter gun control laws despite the massive surge in gun purchases over the last 6 months showing that Americans do not approve of such measure. The rampant ignorance of scientific facts cause people to scream for "carbon emissions controls" to be enacted, when carbon dioxide does not cause the planet to warm any more than a single linen sheet would keep you warm in the middle of a blizzard. They are pushing and pushing and pushing for more and more controls over every aspect of our lives and culture, from more intrusive 'security' measures during our traveling, to laws that criminalize industrial prosperity and individual financial gain, to even trying to take our armaments away, piece by piece.
It. Will. Not. Stop. Understand that. For the love of God and family and everything that is good and right in this world, understand that. A government is either limited by its populace or it limits its populace.
There will be tyranny in America. At what point do we stand up and say "no more"? And will it be too late?
I'm asking you, people, where is the line? At what point do you think a government's activity is offensive enough to warrant armed rebellion? I want to know, people, and we need to find agreement on this, because it is coming, whether you hide your head in the sand or not.
People who don't think armed rebellion is an acceptable alternative to tyranny need not reply: you are part of the problem.











You have some very inspirational stuff here. The Stuart Mill text is awesome and your personal quote is hilarious!
Just keep doing what you already do.
Cheers
