Most of us recognize that if you travel far enough to the Right of the political spectrum, you start finding common ground with some on the far Left.  While the goal may be common, usually the means is not.

You and I can probably agree with our Lefty friends regarding much of Issues 1 & 2 above.

But we would arrive at the goal by very different avenues.

There are other Issues above with which we agree with our Liberal Countrymen.  But while they look to the force of Government as the means, we look to the Constitution and the ideals embodied in our Founding Documents and the People as the mechanism.

The closed fist they have chosen tells you and me as much as we need to know about these silly folks.  In the end they will vote for Mao to bring about Nirvana, only to be slaughtered by their saviour once he is in power.

But one thing is on display that several in our Community have pointed out for quite a while: They want it more.

They are in the thousands, across the country, for weeks.  They are at Wall Street.  They are across the street from the White House.  It is They who are Everywhere.

How many showed to the last RTC in Atlanta?  Even I didn't make it to Atlanta, as last minute business forced me north instead of south.

How many showed to TL's Guardians event in DC?  His plan was essentially the same as what OccupyWallStreet is now doing...we had 3.  They have thousands.

Yes, I know the arguments that Patriots will offer.  This means nothing - Patriots have 2A and the will to use it.

I think most of us agree that the moment the FreeSh*t stops flowing to the FSA, they'll hit the streets with everything from firearms to Molotovs to bricks...and they have thousands for every Patriot that will actually leave his house.

Michael Moore wants the death of Capitalism.

Roseann Barr wants "The Rich" to face the guillotine if they fail to surrender their wealth.

When push comes to shove, they will rationalize your death as a necessary evil, because you impede their ability to provide Utopia for the people.

When push comes to shove, these people will embrace Mao's barrel of a gun philosophy.

Lose your illusions, Patriots.

What is coming has never happened before.  AmRevOne & AmRevTwo are useless as examples of what is coming.

Harden your hearts.

  2. The Tea Party rally in DC filled the mall, hundreds of thousands of people. The media lied about it, until photos made fools of them.

    There are a few thousand in this park, not tens of thousadnds, not hundreds of thousands, not a million.

    Being almost all part of the Free Shit Army it's no big deal for them to go camp in a park in NYC for a week. Most of us have jobs.

    I'm not nearly as impressed by them as you are. What they have is a complicit media that overvalues their protests by 10X while undercounting and underreporting Patriot protests by 10X. That's a 100X multiplier. Which seems about right.

    300,000 Patriots on the mall = astroturfing.
    3,000 lefties in NYC = start of next revlolution.

    Whatever.
