Einstein said, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results."
Um, do your really want to keep beating your head against that senator's door? As if they are listening or even care if you are even alive. Quit acting as if your were insane. You're wasting your life energy fighting this way which is exactly what those in power want to see: Well meaning fools yelling into the ether about issues of life and death until they are exhausted and cannot muster any real resistance.
Time to start looking into the entirety of the Second Amendment: "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." This is the only use of the word necessary in (EDIT) the Bill of Rights.
Not that owning and carrying a gun is necessary, but the existence of the MILITIA is that which is necessary. What is the militia? It's an ancient tradition, brought over to the Colonies from centuries of practice in England and effective in preventing death, mayhem and tyranny. It's only since the local militia was rendered "unnecessary" by the formation of the National Guards that the tyrants have been truly free to move against us and our Freedom.
Today's militia is founded on the Constitutions of both the State and the Nation. This is not the media's presentation of a racist bunch of hicks, instead many are veterans, police and firemen, Tea and Constitution Party members with families, jobs, mortgages, a Constitution in their pocket and a sincere desire to see the Rule of Law returned to the seats of power in this country. Insane trust or faith in this broken political system will never accomplish this goal. We must, as a people, choose a different path.
One man, well intentioned and standing fully in the Founder's plan will easily be killed for his stand and his memory disgraced. Fifty men are another matter entirely. They cannot be erased and their blood will cry out against their killers. There is no further way being left to us by those in power. We must stand and be counted as friends to Liberty or cower as slaves.
Open Carry is at it's heart a rebellious action in this nation today. You men and women have been stretching your wings of Freedom to the ire of those in power. But our efforts are too little. The rulers are unimpressed. The acts of a few openly armed people, though well intentioned and educated in the law and their Rights, are unable to turn this ship of state from her tyrannical path.
These men and women in power were spoken of by Daniel Webster, “There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.” This has not changed. These people still exist and they are drawn to the highest positions of power. The only thing they fear is the loss of that power and they will kill to keep it. Ask the men at Lexington. The challenged these people and eight of their number paid the ultimate cost in blood that April morning. But look what grew from that sacrifice...
So, the question is, "What should an honest and law-abiding man or woman do in the face of tyranny?" Simple. You must choose to resist or choose to submit. Resistance may start a battle which may cost you your life but "is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains or slavery?"
Next step? Modern Militia Movement
