We speculated a few weeks ago that the sudden shift across the Occupy cities that saw LEO begin to crack down was a coordinated effort ordered from higher in the food chain.
Now, we have proof.
The fascinatingly sad part is this: The Occupy folks are puppets, as is LEO, fingers on the same hand, all controlled by Enemies of Liberty that exist much higher in FedGov and beyond, and they have no idea of the reality.
The Occupy Movement is nothing more than a dry run, testing several systems that are all controlled by high level Enemies of Liberty. The LEO system is being tested as well for efficiency and loyalty.
The Occupy folks are being convinced today that LEO is the enemy. This will lead to clashes with LEO and a simmering anger so that next Spring & Summer, when it gets serious, Occupy will swing hard at LEO. LEO will respond and play their position, and the net result will be riots and mob violence and LEO will conveniently get out of Dodge at the right moment.
If you can't connect these dots, work harder my friends. Occupy, LEO, even the military are merely tools of the Enemies of Liberty - pawns that will serve their purpose and be sacrificed as needed for the greater goal.
Only you stand between Liberty and those who mean to kill it.

These are the spurs taken from the corpse of Julio Cardenas.
Cardenas was a Captain in Pancho Villa's army and had taken part in the Battle of Columbus, New Mexico, in which 18 Americans were killed.
Lt. George S. Patton killed Cardenas with a single-action Colt...then strapped the corpse to the hood of his car.
This is how Americans in the past have dealt with Enemies of Liberty.
Think about that...
...and consider also how Patton was treated by Washington DC for his desire to take Moscow, and how the General died.
Here is General Patton on the Russians: The difficulty in understanding the Russians is that we do not take cognizance of the fact that he is not a European, but an Asiatic, and therefore thinks deviously. We can no more understand a Russian than a Chinaman or a Japanese, and from what I have seen of them, I have no particular desire to understand them, except to ascertain how much lead or iron it takes to kill them. In addition to his other Asiatic characteristics, the Russian have no regard for human life and is an all out son of bitch, barbarian, and chronic drunk.
Had we only listened to a man who knew how to deal with our enemies.
Yet Washington DC was eager to protect the Russians...why?
I think we understand, now.

The City Council of Lancaster (population 150,000) has unanimously approved a spy plane to record the city. It's a Cessna with a pilot. I guess they couldn't afford a new Drone.
My question to the Citizens of Lancaster: Did any of your Council Members actually run on this issue? Was it part of the election?
That same question reaches all of us: Did we vote for Patriot Act or the other insanities that have been hefted upon us? Do our politicians run on such single issues?
Not usually. They do what they want once they get there, having been as vague as possible during the actual election process.
But, then we vote them back into office, or we vote them out but do not insist that the new guy repeals that stuff we hate...
Sorry folks, it is our fault. (and our grandparents, and theirs...)
It is time that We the People flex our muscle...even if that means making a fuss and a mess.
Or, we can simply let this continue...
One more question for the folks of Lancaster (and beyond): Don't your Councilmen shop at the same grocery stores you do...
Here's the story from Lancaster, if you care.

How would you take it if Banksters in Canada and Mexico forced our President (duly elected, even if we don't like the guy) to resign, then installed one of their puppets in his place to run our country?
You'd be pretty ticked, correct? It's that whole self-determination, thing.
Well, that is exactly what just happened in Europe. Banksters across Europe who are holding a LOT of debt from the PIGS (Portugal, Italy, Greece, Spain) watched as Greece told them to stuff it, and Italy was clearing their throat to say the same thing.
The Banksters pulled strings and decapitated both Governments. Then they installed unelected puppets with a single goal - keep the interest payments flowing on the debt.
If you were Greek or Italian, patriotic to your homeland, what would you do?
If you are the Banksters, and the Greek & Italian people get rowdy about being manhandled (with Portugal and Spain watching with great interest), would you pull strings and have your lackeys in German and French seats of power send tanks and troops to collect on the debts in the form of Greek and Italian assets?
People around the world are proud of their homelands. Patriotic Greeks and Italians are seething that they are now falling under the control of foreign Banksters.
What would you do?
What will they do?
We will likely see more bloodshed and war in Western Europe in our lifetime.
Will we be busy hanging our own Banksters on public Greens across the land...or will we continue to sweat on their behalf? In case you've missed the last few decades, Banksters have been putting their puppets in the Oval Office for quite a while...
And never forget to look both ways when crossing the street - Silicon Graybeard is keeping an eye on China's numbers. I have held for a long time that the rise of China is a Zero Sum game, slightly modified: Every dollar they earn is a direct result of American policies. The day America chooses to gut the Chinese, it is a simple matter of closing the ports to her imports.
A little pain here...and an E.L.E. in China (Extinction Level Event).

Readers know that I take the position that violence is imminent, likely the catalyst will be economic implosion, and politics can not be neglected.
The Establishment R's want a President Romney. That is an indictment of the Establishment, even without considering any other evidence. And we all know that we already have enough evidence to indict every member of FedGov & the Political Class, we don't need any more.
I see no difference between a President Obama and a President Romney...except that President Obama is more honest about his agenda.
Either of these men in the White House in 2012 will mean the airplane we are on, which is currently pointed at the ground and traveling at Mach Two...will accelerate to Mach 3+.
Not that any of the other R candidates are genuine Constitutionalists, though Ron Paul comes closest.
We are on a course that can not be altered. The only variable is speed.
Brace for impact. Protect the patch of ground beneath your own feet.

How many times have you heard people who accept Disability checks from FedGov declare righteously: It's my money that I have paid in over the years...
Let's examine the numbers for a second, and expose the fallacy. I'll be very generous with the numbers.
Take the average guy who has worked 30 years and earned an average of $50k annually. (This is generous because the average guy doesn't earn $50k for 30 years).
That is $1.5 million gross income for the career.
Now let's look at FICA (Social Security & Medicare witholding). The rate today is 7.65%.
Let's give our hypothetical worker the benefit of that tax rate for the full 30 years. (This is generous to the worker, because the rate has not been this high for all 30 years).
At $50k per year x 7.65% FICA, our guy paid into the system $3,825 per year.
Paying $3,825 each year for 30 years is: $114,750.
The average Title II Social Security Disability check today is $979 per month.
So: $114,750 paid in divided by $979 each month in pay outs = 117 months of disability.
That 118th month, and every month after, is free money for the "Disabled" worker.
That's just under 10 years - and it does NOT include one single dime of the free medical care received. Factor in the free Medicare and we drop to far less than 10 years.
Our fictitious "Disabled" worker runs out of "...the money I paid into the system..." within 10 years, and that assumes not one, single medical visit under Medicare.
So, in the real world where our "Disabled" worker receives a check, and free Medicare, the money "He" contributed runs out in far less than 10 years.
Look around. Do you see anyone gaming the system this way? Does that person have the ability to earn income from legitimate sources? Does this person giggle like a little girl and boast about how he/she is f'n the system?
I'm all for getting the money you were forced to pay into the system back into your wallet. But if you accept one single dollar more than you paid, you are a parasite and part of the FSA.
Period.

China has 505 million men aged 15-64.
Consider even a modest percentage of those men armed with a new AK, 10 magazines each, and provisions for 72 hours.
Consider them working in partnership with the South-of-the-Border element already in this country, and a portion of the 35 million Mexican men aged 15-65 who remain in Mexico but want to be here...afterall, they consider most of the US Southwest to be Mexican territory, anyway.
Recall the swarm tactics that have been so effective since WWII.
Do you trust the current American Political Class to resist?
Just think about the possibilities of a swarming force from our southern border, armed with nothing more than AK's, tasked with provisioning as they go...
Do not dismiss the possibility because ...that can't happen here...
I can think of at least a dozen scenarios to make this work. And if I can think it, you know others have already noodled it through.

Libertarians were running in 90 elections last Tuesday, mostly at the local level.
According to an email from Wes Benedict, Executive Director of the national Libertarian Party, they won 8 seats, or just under 10%.
For those of you who think SHTF will force a Balkanization and/or a return of strong States, it matters who you have in office in your AO. In an ugly world, your Mayor may well become the highest legitimately elected politician in your AO. The man or woman who serves as your county Sheriff is very important in a strong 10th Amendment America. Even your school board officials matter, for legitimacy and lawfully elected officials will be calling shots in many scenarios.
Think about 2012. Would your AO benefit if you were legitimately in office when SHTF?
Think about running in 2012 for your City Council, Mayor or Sheriff's office.
How many members of your Tribe might benefit if you are the Sheriff of your county when SHTF and the Feds begin to go heavy in your AO.
And if Sh*t never hits the fan, still imagine what you could do as Sheriff to push back against FedGov encroachments.
Yes, you can do it, if you choose to do so.
Here's a link to the press release from the Libertarian Party.

Curtis has more about our fine, upstanding Congressmen and their insider trading.
Remember: The system is not the problem, it's the people in the system who choose to do bad things.
I can prove my point, easily. If "the system" or "the government" were corrupt, every individual within would act corruptly.
Would YOU go to Washington and take advantage of insider information? Would you diddle interns? Would you swap spit with Banksters?
The answer is no. Thus, I conclude that the system is not the problem - it is the people we permit to be within the system that are the problem.
Let's get that herd of genetic garbage on the run, out of our country.

I firmly believe that Anitoliy Golitsyn was a genuine defector from the Soviet Union, and the information he provided to our side was accurate. I also firmly believe that James Angleton was shut down by very powerful Soviet and Communist forces that have been entrenched in our Political Class since well before FDR.
I also believe that Patriots today simply cannot defeat the Enemies of Liberty unless we, as a community, fully grasp the scope of those enemies aligned against us and we take the decision to restore Liberty by any means necessary.
The Left drift of our politics, of our morality, of our economy over the last 100 years is the result of work done by enemies who intend to unite the world under totalitarian control. We have enemies, foreign and domestic.
Those enemies have been working together for generations. They have a long-term worldview, and all of their work is now coming to that moment when they must take that final step, a step that they assume will be our Coup de grâce.
They may be correct, but they need not be. Liberty does not need to die today.
We can still push back the Enemies of Liberty and ensure that Mister Jefferson's Liberty survives another generation, but the task before us is monumental. Had we listened to General Patton and taken Moscow, how many lives would have been saved in the 20th century alone? How many will die in our lifetime because we failed to kill our enemies when we had the chance?
I am providing a link to a very well written analysis of the Russo-Sino alliance that examines the topic from the beginning to today.
It is a very long read, and it is not light reading. You'll need to be of fresh mind.
But I commend it to you when you have the chance.
Before one can slay a monster, one must identify the true form of the beast.

A pair of LEO from San Francisco say they were cut by Occupy folks with a razor or similar blade.
I guess LEO and Occupy haven't figured out that they are fingers on the same hand.
And what is a Patriot to do?
Get some popcorn and watch the Left beat on their own. And use the winter to plan for spring & summer, when the potential for genuine ugliness gets real.
When it gets real, LEO will disappear and the mobs will own the city. We've seen it time and again. The mobs will destroy their own city and neighborhoods before they march for the suburbs. Then they'll be guided to the homes of their political enemies.
Spring & summer, my friends.

One of Mo's gals is appointed to the US Commission on Religious Freedom, by President Obama.
She has stated that Thomas Jefferson...wait for it...and our other Founders...wait for it...were inspired by the...wait for it...Koran.
Just read the post at Brock's Place.
Also read this post while at Brock's - he linked to Karl. If this story doesn't articulate the moral bankruptcy of our republic, I'm not sure what does. A battered woman killed her husband, was tried for 2nd degree murder, found not guilty, and will still go to prison for 2-5 years for using an unregistered firearm...that belonged to her husband!
Yes, friends...I can think of one story that better illustrates our plight: Not one man in America is headed to New York to break this woman out of prison.

We also know that those on the Right of the political spectrum have a longer fuse than those on the Left. It has always been so.
