FYI about so-called "Patriots"...

Benedict Arnold - The Traitor

I need to make a point.  In my columns at Kerodin.com and here at the blog, I often refer to "...so-called "Patriots"..." and it is obvious that I am sneering at and challenging those who claim to be Patriots in their words yet act far differently in their deeds.

Too many readers think I am only pointing fingers at one or two specific "Patriots".

Most of you know by now that if I intend to name names, I'm not too shy about it.  I abide a self-imposed no-fire truce with particular members of the III Community.  I don't care what they may do, I care about my own behavior.  When, and if, I ever choose to release myself from my no-fire protocol, it'll be epic.

Until then: When I use the generic "...so-called "Patriots"..." please understand I am including everyone who talks the talk yet fails to walk the walk.

That includes NRA.  That includes Oath Keepers.  That includes politicians who claim to be Constitutionalists, yet rarely meet an unconstitutional act they don't rubber-stamp for approval.  That includes every R in the republic who manages to live with reasonable gun control measures.

It might include you, too, if you fit the definition.

And if you don't fit my definition of a useless piece of genetic garbage who profits from the deliberate and active denial of Liberty while invoking the title of Patriot...then I didn't mean you.
