TL, JM, MHG, and more

TL explores the concept of laws used as defensive and controlling measures by Tyrants, barriers between you and them, and you and Liberty that is your birthright.

Every Tyrant manifests "Laws" to insulate his actions, for there is a large part of the Human species who recoil at the thought of "Breaking the law".

But as TL states, the only path from where we stand today and Liberty is through the laws that have been erected to enslave us. A slave in 1775 America would have been breaking "the law" had he chosen to walk away from his plantation. He'd have been "breaking the law" if he killed his "Master" on the way out the door.

But is there one person in the Patriot Community who thinks that slave would have been morally wrong in his actions? If so, I suggest you leave.

One of the Commentors at TL's place noted that we are still in that place where the squeeky wheel will be tended by Government Mechanics. The comment is not wrong.

As most of you know I look to our Founders for guidance. They, too, had this phase in the Revolution. They, too, had men and women who stood upon the ridge and risked Government wrath as they shouted of Liberty and Freedom. Remember that Sam Adams and John Hancock were the targets of arrest warrants in the Lexington & Concord affair, for their rebel ways.

Remember that Trainer had an interview with the King's Men.

I will continue to follow the Founders guidance. I will risk the warrants while standing tall and being counted, until they kill me or until we evolve to the next phase of our counter-revolution.

John Mosby posted about the Moral High Ground discussion, which is also worth a read and ties into the discussion with TL. Most of us have been through the Moral High Ground discussions and our own contemplations on the matter. I know where I stand on the matter.

When Governor Hutchinson was burned from home & hearth, his family was left without shelter as well. Who is a combatant in your mind? I think it is clear that our Founders drew the line at Agents of the King, those doing the King's bidding (whether in office or merchants or citizens who were Loyalists). And if you chose to sleep next to the Loyalist Governor and burned to death at his side...well, it sucks to be you.

If you do the bidding of Tyrants, you are a combatant. Whether you issue warrants, execute warrants, or deliver the paperwork, or vote such people into office, or support their reign, you are a combatant and you need to go. I have settled on three options for such people: Sit down and STFU, GTFO, or face Article III Section III on your front lawn by Patriots.

When you consider the Moral High Ground topic for yourself, if you have not already settled the matter, consider it through the lens of TL's piece. When a mob of unarmed people rally in support of a law to disarm all Patriots by force of Government or to raise the taxes of all to 90% so more FSA may be satisfied, are the people in that mob Enemies or No-Go targets?

I will stand to be counted in November at the Capitol. I will not be armed.

Warrants may follow...

Here's TL's piece.

Here's John Mosby's piece.

Enemies of Liberty

The picture above is, of course, Pat Buchanan on the left and Gabe Suarez opposite. I ask you, which man would you trust more coming into your home with a weapon?

Pat Buchanan: Like 19th-century Marxists, neocons envision a future that is utopian — i.e., it is unattainable. For in the real world, history, faith and culture shape peoples, and peoples shape countries to reflect who and what they are.

Nations constructed from ideological blueprints like the Soviet Union of Vladimir Lenin and the China of Mao Zedong eventually collapse when their ruling ideas collide fatally with reality and human nature. [Emphasis mine - K]

There are vast blocks of people in America who stand against the Founder's Intent regarding the DoI, Constitution and BoR. These people do not simply disagree with the Founder's Intent, they actively move to replace/redefine our Founding Principles. We have Tyrants in so many flavors and shades of grey we simply could not list all the labels they use to describe themselves. Marxists are simply one flavor of re-distributionist/collectivist Tyrant among us. Liberals are in their camp, in deed, if not in name.

But as Mister Buchanan points out the Neo-Cons are no less dangerous and destructive to the principles of Jefferson and Franklin than Stalin and Marx. We have another group that I call "Law & Order Republicans" who are intellectually repugnant creatures, not because of Rule of Law, but because they abuse Rule of Law to tyranical ends, such as Lawfare.

We (The Patriot Community) apparently dinged the psyche and self-image of Gabe Suarez in our recent discussions across our boards about his positions and his self-declaration that proves he is a genuine Enemy of Liberty, an enemy of Jefferson's Rightful Liberty, and an enemy of the Founder's Intent. He is the perfect example of the attack dog on leash for the Law & Order Republicans, which is the only reason I mention him in this forum. A few of his sycophants anonymously weighed-in on my earlier post, here. Fella's - I think that may be Suarez taint on your lip...

It is important for Patriots to recognize Enemies of Liberty quickly and accurately.

He who hesitates will die.

They wear SEIU purple, they wear US Flag lapel pins in Halls of Power, they often wear LEO badges and every man or woman in LEO tactical reveals their true disposition to Jefferson's Rightful Liberty by the clothing they choose to wear. Some Enemies of Liberty even wave Gadsden and hold the Bible in one hand and the Constitution in the other. They speak the words of the Oath...

The number of Americans who genuinely respect the Founder's Intent and Jefferson's Rightful Liberty is depressingly small.

When it comes to the poster boy Gabe Suarez for your Countrymen who do not give a whit about the Natural Rights articulated in our Founding Documents and all of the guys and gals who dismiss you as "tin foilers", let it soak into your deepest psyche that most of your Countrymen will kill you and never think twice about it simply because you genuinely believe in Liberty, if you make it onto the wrong list.

Here's Gabe's response. This is not worthy of a flame war, folks. There are no natural allies to be found in his ranks. They are all Enemies of Liberty.

It is very important to tie all of these strands into Mister Buchanan's piece, here.

Do Over: My kind of place

I agree.

Any of you who want to do something proactive and you live in carry-legal states: You can have 100 such signs printed for probably $200. Consider buying a batch and taking them to your main street retailers and finding out who will post it...and who won't.

That'll help Patriots in your area know where to shop.

Fix bayonets and march them all to the borders and beyond...

This could be a community or small town in many parts of the US.

It is Sderot, in southern Israel.

22 rockets have been fired into Sderot from Gaza on Saturday. In one day.

They hit a factory and a school.

I come back to the Israel situation from time to time because it is a real-time lesson for American Patriots, if you care to learn. Six million or so were murdered during the Holocaust. Many living Jews have direct memories of that time. The phrase "Never Again" was borne.

Yet today the Israeli's permit murderers to live in their midst, murderers who launch rockets at schools and residential neighborhoods.

Is there some moral obstacle that stops the Israeli's from giving 24 hours notice to everyone in Gaza and West Bank: Grab what you can carry and get out. At the end of 24 hours we will move in and forcibly deport every remaining non-Israeli.

March these people to the Sinai or into Jordan. It's not like Egypt or Jordan has what it takes to deny the Israeli's the ground.

I wonder if the Israeli's tolerate this abuse simply because of "International pressure". I wonder if they are being forced to try to coexist with their mortal enemies because of Washingtonian elite ideologies?

Here's the lesson, folks: When it is your neighborhood, and you know the ovens are what wait for you at the other end of the enemy's plan, do not hesitate, do not play games, and reserve all of your mercy for those people who are not trying to murder you. Give your enemies fair warning to leave. Then, make them leave, and screw any "Bad Press" you may suffer from outsiders.

A Patriot I respect had the right plan, I'll paraphrase: When the time comes I'll kill all of my idiot neighbors who refuse to leave, use their cars to block the roads into my neighborhood, and make it known it is a No-Go Zone.

When it comes to our life, folks, do not allow the ideology, opinion, or any other pressure from any other Soul to stand between you and proper, prudent self-defense.

Here's the article on Sderot.

Wingnuts & Tinfoil...

How many times have you seen a Patriot in our community ranting about the UN, Bildebergs and other grand conspiracies and rolled your eyes?

You may owe a few of them an apology.

The UN is now classifying it's plan for Rio because one of the drafts called for "contraction" of major economies.

Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't trying to get you.

I have a saying I developed over the last few years: I am not fringe, but I can see it from here. Of course, there are many folks who would read that...and roll their eyes. ;)

Here's the story on the UN. For those of us who are convinced that President Obama does not think "President of the united States" is the highest credential possible on a resume, and think he may see himself, one day, as the first "President of the World" or some such title, it is not a stretch to consider some politicians deliberately sabotaging the economies of the world as part of a UN scheme...

Consider: The Trainer's Encounter

Some folks have made it clear they'd have handled the situation differently than did Trainer when he was approached by LEO.

Fair enough. But, consider this: Would you really rather they came heavy at 0430 when you are in bed with your wife and the kids are scattered around the house in different bedrooms?

Do not be afraid to look your enemies in the eye at CQB range, folks. If they simply want to talk, why not talk? Why remove that option from the table and force them into tactical gear when all they really want to do at this time is talk to you?

I have direct experience that may be relevant.

It has been my direct experience that when FedGov (especially) comes to you in such a manner, with empty hands and in a sport coat, they are truly offering you a warning and an opportunity to avoid something that may be worse.

The Feds are not in the habit of telling you that they are going to sneak up on you.

If you run a group, or are part of a "Patriot Group" and you are peacefully approached by LEO, it would be my immediate suspicion that FedGov has “something” on someone in your sphere of influence. It may be aggressive rhetoric, it may be Google searches for bad things on the net, it could be an attempt to buy something prohibited, it could even be so severe as one of your men (or someone they hold dear) has been pinched and is flipping to earn a plea, and will say almost anything to get that plea.

While it could also simply be a Psyop from FedGov to start dissension in your ranks, I tend to dismiss this option.

As I say: I have personal experience that when they come to you and talk, it is because they have taken the decision to try to avoid a confrontation. There “are” some folks on the “Other Side” with a conscience, or at least with an agenda that does not include flashbangs.

Look hard at your people and the people about whom they care. If you get a whiff, a simple tingle of doubt whispering to your brain about anyone, cut them out or at least compartmentalize them.

Not that you haven’t already played these realities over in your mind a thousand times, but I also know that as Humans we tend to over-ride our instincts when it comes to people who are close to us. We try to explain away “little things” that in retrospect you may recognize as warning signs.

Never forget: As easily as they coordinated "Interviews" with Trainer and his crew, they could have coordinated tactical raids at each location at 0430. If that is what they wanted, they'd have done it.

The self-aggrandizing rhetoric from Sipsey on this one surprises even me in its hubris. MBV wants credit for FedGov talking to Trainer, because MBV is such the threat. I think the evidence is overwhelming and demonstrated that the last one to be eaten in the Patriot Community will be Mike.

Use logic and reason, folks: If FedGov planned to use Trainer and his group as a cheap media event for political reasons, they'd have gone for Shock & Awe, not discreet interviews.

Lady Thatcher: The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money

What we are watching in the Euro is a real-life end-game of Socialism and collective tyranny.

This is not a textbook, folks. We are watching History happen.

Maggie Thatcher is credited with the famous quote: The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money...

Everyone in the EU is banging on Germany to spend more of her cash. Everyone in the EU is broke, except Germany, and the banks have found there is no more real benefit to lending to the EU countries - they have milked that cow to death. The banks only remain in the game at this point because pulling out means closing the doors.

So, France, Italy & Spain will bang on Merkel to spread German wealth into other countries in true Socialist fashion, right to the end.

Watch the History, folks, and it is Article III Section III for any American who tries to take us down that road.

From Trainer

Verbatim from The Trainer:

It would be a great personal favor to me if you posted this as a stand alone piece; apparently, I'm now a "known enemy of the State".

Thanks.

I’m known by my two “nom de guerre’s,” ‘The Trainer’ and ‘Black Jack.’ I lead the Michigan Patriot Alliance. I have a group of good men, citizens loyal to the Constitution, who train and prepare to protect their families and friends against the harsh times we all agree are coming, either through government (which one is irrelevant as they are acting in concert) or disaster. We are not “anti-government”; rather, we are “pro-constitutional government”; we are not “terrorists”; we are the “armed citizenry” who refuses to be terrorized; we are not “bad actors”; rather, we have already paid our dues whether in service or in industry, and have no patience for Marxism, Globalism, Pantheism, Fascism, or whatever “ism” that isn’t “Americanism” as espoused by the Founders and the tradition of “common law” that actually had a great deal of influence in the founding of this Republic. We are “Live and Let Live.” So long as we are left alone to raise our families, associate with those we choose, allowed to reject “political correctness” and be who we were raised to be by tradition and choice, we offer no offense or harm to anyone. Leave us alone; we will leave you (government) alone. We will vote, pay our taxes, protest as we see fit, and so forth, all without major upset.

With that description of who I am and who my folks are, know that today, when deplaning from a business trip to Texas, I was approached by a member of the FBI who presented his credentials and asked if he could talk to me. Simultaneously, half a dozen or so other members of my group were being approached by agents of the FBI, Michigan State Police, and a couple other county departments.

None of us were arrested or detained. I was in their company less than 10 minutes, once I was escorted with a uniformed officer on my left, plain clothes sheriff’s deputy (or junior g-man) at my six, and the senior investigator moving from either 2 to 8 O’clock all the way to the detention/interview room. We were let in by a ‘high fructose corn syrup’ fed locally employed, armed police officer, in other words, he was really fat!

The FBI basically wanted to know if I wanted to talk about my group, the Michigan Patriot Alliance and a quote I use by Colonel Charles Beckwith, the founder of Delta Force, whom I greatly admire, that says, “I’d rather go down the river with seven studs than a hundred shitheads.” From the saying, we’ve developed a toast, “7 Studs” that we use at social occasions, which obviously underscores the concern of quality versus quantity.

My purpose for writing this is to put out formal notice that nobody that I know in the MPA is a child pornographer, kiddie porn addict, terrorist, or otherwise a ‘malcontent ne’er do well’. We all are citizens of our State and the United States, some of us veterans, some not, who are angry at the direction and speed the nation is taking toward totalitarianism. Yes, we are armed. Yes, we train to stay alive. Yes, we study historical works, such as M. Stanton Evans, “The Theme is Freedom” to understand how our chosen belief system, Christianity, actually is, by historical evidence, the foundation of all the freedoms we used to enjoy…..like getting on an airplane without being escorted and searched like a common criminal.

So, should you see another group on the news in Michigan that was ‘taken down’ because they were plotting to kill, maim, or otherwise do harm to innocent Americans, know that it is not true. We, in the MPA, only train to protect those we love (our wives, children and extended families), help our communities when the SHTF, and help our country as we can by being loyal Constitutionalists.

Our aim has never, and will never, be to “overthrow the government” or cause harm to any innocent. Our goal is to see through restoration of constitutional government. Government that lives within its confines laid out so clearly in the Constitution.

All that said, for those federals reading this, should you decide to arrest us or “NDAA” us, for the charge of loving our Constitution and country, have the decency to leave the neighborhoods we live in alone. Leave our wives, children and other family members alone. Approach us calmly, reasonably, and without dynamic raid teams. They are unnecessary. Doing so might just help you start to rebuild the older, more honorable title of ‘peace officer’ and heal the scars the last 40 years of “law enforcement” have wrought among us (“us” meaning the citizenry). All dynamic raids do is provide a testosterone ‘buzz’ for those ‘tactical types’ that see all of us, and I mean every single one of us, as “the enemy.”

Personally, I can attest that none of us wishes to do combat; we’d rather come together and reason on the level playing field between men. On the other hand, we’ve all made our peace with God, so if you’re going to kill us, you might want to bring a lunch.

Sorry to pee in the Cheerios of all the sycophants out there, but Bill has put together more proof of what a few of us have known for a long time.

There was a Useful Idiot put to use by his Masters.

This post fits very well with my below post about Suarez: It isn't about GunWalker or Suarez Training, it is about the ability of the Patriot to quickly and accurately recognize taint-sucklers who will barter you as a commodity versus allies.

So, you want to be like Gabe, eh?

Rich T has brought Gabe Suarez back into my orbit by posting a link to a conversation recently held at Gabe's site. Then Gabe weighed-in with his own two cents.

First: If you put a dime in Gabe's pocket by taking his courses, leave here and do not come back. If you have already done it and are just now learning of his Useful Idiot status in the FSA for the Establishment, I'll forgive you, go forth and sin no more.

Second: Do you have the skills to overcome, counter and kill guys like the ones Gabe trains? They will be fighting against you. They do have skills. They will rarely come alone, and they will never willingly get buckle-to-buckle.

Third: If you do not have such skills, do your best to acquire them, and get a brush bar for your Chevy that hoses off easily. (Check with John Mosby or the guys at Mason Dixon, for starters, and Krav Maga for CQB)

Suarez makes his money by being aligned with LEO and LEO wannabes.

Gabe: The usual 1776 Types with their F*** The Police attitudes (no different than a group of Black Panthers) come out of the woodwork waving their rifles in one hand and the Constitution in the other...

Constitution in the other. Gabe doesn't care about Right and Wrong. He says so, right here: Notice that I have not even gotten into the "right or wrong" discussion. Why not? Because it is not relevant.

Mind you, Suarez will simply dismiss me as a natural enemy of civilizaton because I have been branded so by his Masters. No matter. I have been called worse names by better men.

Will I ever cross paths with Gabe Suarez? Not likely. If he and I are ever in the same hot zone at the same time, we'll surely be on opposite sides of the line. He'll be empowered by his buddies in their riot gear and their modern Letters of Marque issued by The Establishment, and they will attempt to be rid of the enemies of the Establishment, F* the Constitution.

Fuck you, Gabe. And fuck every Enemy of Liberty you crank out of your school who goes back to the line and steps on the necks of those who dare smoke a joint or own a prohibited weapon or who happen to piss off the wrong corporation or politician, those who choose to live the Liberty outlined in the Constitution you dismiss.

You help to define why this country is devolving. You stand guard for the Enemies of Liberty and carry their water. You are simply a well-paid and well-armed Useful Idiot in the FSA.

If you don't like what I have to say, fuck you twice.

Consider

Just a random thought for consideration: Every serious "Movement" on Earth, whether religious, political, ideological, has one thing in common - the Movement has people who are willing to kill and die for their Movement.

Why is Christianity descending? They have stopped killing enemies of Christianity.

Why is Islam rising? They kill enemies of Islam daily.

Why is Tyranny rising? They kill enemies of Tyranny daily.

Why have abortionists murdered 53 million+ babies in America alone? Because abortionists walk freely among us.

Why is Liberty in America dying? You know the answer...

When Movements stop killing their enemies, they fade into history.

Defense is not enough. To Resist is not enough. To have Faith is not enough.

Remember your Mencken: Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
