National Guard training for clampdown is understandable…

August 14, 2009

The National Guard in Maine is conducting a riot control drill at Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School to “prepare in the event of a panic over distribution of serum to treat the swine flu”

That’s understandable. After all, there might be other reasons to clamp down on citizens, such as those feisty Town Hall meetings to protest the Democrats’ deadly Socialized Medicine scheme.

1863: Federal troops kill draft protesters

And with Obama extending the Bush wars, a draft will soon be needed to bring in enough troops to occupy all those unruly foreign countries Obama wants to occupy. We might have draft riots in like the New York Draft Riots in 1863 that greeted Lincoln’s enslavement of young men to die fighting in his Army of the Potomac.

Freedom is a volatile thing, and the last thing the government wants to do is let it get out of control.

State Sovereignty movements sweeping USA — California next?

April 2, 2009

President Bush’s tyrannies sparked State Soverignty movements that only are increasing under the further oppressions of President Obama.

28 states now have introduced legislation asserting state sovereignty “partly in response to the conditions” under the Bush-Obama “stimulus” bills that vastly increased the tyranny of the central regime in Washington, according to The Christian Science Monitor. Four of the resolutions have passed, in Idaho, South Dakota, Oklahoma, and South Carolina. Two have been rejected, in New Hampshire and Arkansas. 22 are still pending.

This isn’t just a bunch of Southerners still sore about losing the Civil War. Most of the states are in the North and West. Here’s a map:

Americans are starting to remember that our country was born in revolt against the British tyranny of 1776. Today, the Washington, D.C. tyranny is much greater than King George III ever could have imagined.

Taxes now are half of our incomes, and going higher. Mutitudinous federal security agencies — NSA, FBI, CIA, DHS, etc. — spy, coerce, and jail us. Massive bureaucracies control every minute portion of our lives. And now, the feds have taken over the banking, insurance, and auto industries. America rsembles less the free country of 1789 than the Soviet Union of 1939.

So far, there isn’t such a movement in California’s Legislature. But someone ought to start one.

As Karen De Coster writes:

There is a secession movement afoot and its proponents are determined to put a halt to the federal government’s ambitions to destroy and reconstruct an entire economy and dissolve the last remnants of individual liberty….

The speed with which the federal government intends to take over private institutions and usurp states’ rights and individual autonomy is unprecedented. When the Bush-Obama regime maneuvers are compared to the Hoover-FDR New Deal era, it looks like today’s hare vs. yesterday’s turtle. The state’s various propaganda arms, from big media to institutionalized special interest forces, are being empowered to publicize and sell the agenda of the totalitarian state by painting it in glossy colors that warm the hearts of unresisting Americans.

There are, however, growing pockets of dissenters who conclude that life, liberty, property, and the futures of their children are more important than the trivial things that occupy the minds of the submissive class. For that reason, the state’s militarized police force, which has been given unparalleled powers by the contrived crises following 9-11, has snowballed in size and is being fortified in expectation of confronting rebellion from those citizens who intend to resist the tyranny of an over-reaching Leviathan.

Since the Bush II regime took control and 9/11 became its launch pad for sweeping hegemony, the police state has moved more swiftly than ever to demonize resistance and criminalize dissent. The most recent example is the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) report that profiled individuals according to their political convictions, especially those ideas that agitate against the institutionalization of unconstitutional acts that are intended to grow state power at the expense of individual liberties. Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr (!), guns & ammo, taxes, the Federal Reserve, secession, and resistance to universal government service or anti-privacy actions – all of those topics have become keywords in the crusade to criminalize individuals who refuse to be rounded up like cattle and marched toward serfdom.

Real patriots

As to me, my political views haven’t change much over my 53 years, always favoring limited government and opposing tyranny. Yet I’ve gone from being a patriot to, under Bush-Obama, someone considered a threat to the government Establishment!

Well, I’m still a patriot — a real patriot. It’s Bush and Obama who are the real traitors to America’s sacred legacy of liberty and limited government.

May the State Sovereignty movement continue to grow until it tames, or if necessary abolishes, the central tyranny. As a famous document once put it:

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.



America after 8 years of Bush tyranny

March 30, 2009

The following cartoon says all that needs to be said — or drawn — about the state of once-free America after 8 years of Bush tyranny:

Oh, and for all you Obama lovers out there, he’s not making things any better.

To cries of “freedom,” America in the past decade has descended into a dark cave of tyranny from which it will be difficult to leave. The government, ever incompletent, failed to protect us on 9/11, and then urned Americans’ fears into an excuse to strap a police state on us.

Bush, Cheney, the Neocons, and the others will go down in history as those who enslaved what once was the freest country ever.

More tyranny: girl arrested for not paying $10 library fine

August 22, 2008

The dark night of tyranny continues to descend across America. In Wisconsin, Heidi Dalibor, 20, was arrested, handcuffed, and booked for not returning 2 public library books she took out a year ago, and not paying a $10 library fine:

she was surprised when officers with a warrant knocked on her door, cuffed her and took her to the police station to be fingerprinted and photographed. Police Capt. Joe Gabrish said officers follow the same procedure with every warrant.

(Here’s a video.)

Is this all Wisconsin police have to deal with? Have all murders, assaults, and robberies been solved?

And why do cops nowadays handcuff everybody, even for something this stupid? The answer: because cops nowadays exist not to enforce law and order, but to tyrannize us. Handcuffing shows who’s boss: the government. Mere citizens are slaves to be manacled at will.

Ironically, the library’s name is the “USS Liberty Memorial Public Library” — liberty being the opposite of what happened.

libraryHeidi’s arrest also shows why government libraries, like this one, should be abolished in favor of private libraries, such as the great Mechanics’ Institute Library in San Francisco (pictured at right). The cost to be a member is $95, which is less than the $172 Heidi’s mom paid to get her out of the slammer. This is yet another example of how private activities cost much less than “public” ones.

Finally, as the video shows, Heidi is a pretty girl. And pretty girls shouldn’t be arrested for any but the most heinous crimes. Traffic violations and other misdemeanors? Let the off. In better days, all a pretty girl had to do was bat her eyelashes at a cop, and he wouldn’t arrest her, or cite her.

Why should pretty girls not be arrested, or even cited? If you have to ask, you’ll never understand.
