I just couln't get past the caption in the article:

"Security has been more visible since the federal government heightened the terrorism alert from red to orange."

Isn't going from red to orange decreasing the alert ? Isn't that the one thing we learned from all the color manipulation before the 2004 elections ?

"You have 20,000 additional civilian forces who need to be paid, equipped, and provided wth transportation, and sit around doing nothing until a disaster local resources can't deal with occurs. And even if this force is civilian, they're gonna have to have some sort of security component attached. "

Yeah, its called the Red Cross with the cops acting as cover.

Prove it. If you die and can still make a good point...I'll concede that ideas are bulletproof.

"If you can die and still make a good point..."

Lets see...

The folks who have died and made a good point doing so...

Ghandi.

M.L.K.

Any American patriot who stood, and died, against tyranny.

The boys at Omaha beach.

The boys at Iwo Jima.

J.F.K.

Do you want me to go on?

The proof lies all around here, even right here in RWED.

You cannot unsay the things I've said, nor can you go to everyone who's learned or pondered things from my posts and take all that back.

Nor can you in any way prevent them from passing those philosophies, those ideas and concepts, onto others.

Even if you were to knock me off, there's plenty willing and able to take my place, and were one of them to choose the "highlander option", I doubt that anyone would actually even realize it had happened.

Even if you were to torch the US Constitution, burn The Federalist/Anti-Federalist papers and outlaw all of Peter Kropotkins work, ban the words of Patrick Henry...

All you would do is stoke the fires by admission that those words, and the people uttering them, reading them, knowing them - are a threat to those waiting behind lady liberty with a garrotte waiting for the people to blink.

And all your veiled threats do is help the very cause you so desire to eliminate, feed the very fires you'd like stamped out.

Hell of a quandry, innit ?

In other words....

There are going to be people willing to stand against your tyrannical, socialist, Big Brother, 1984, Nazi state.

Folks willing to fight and, if need be, die to stop you.

Its getting to the point that Im wondering who will fire the next "shot heard round the world".

If that what you want to believe Hero, you go right ahead....

But, as for me...I'd prefer to believe that Frem could do as he says. It gives me some peace at night.

The idea, that we (the BrownCoats), could win is very comforting.
