Enemies of Liberty are ruthless. To own your Liberty, you'd better come harder than your enemies..

The damage done by hyperbole...


You all know that my position regarding violence is that it is not yet time.

For this reason you will not find me writing such silliness as "I'll take 100 heads" or "I'll die before I live under tyranny". Obviously, we already live under tyranny.

Yet across our blogs we see this stuff all the time. "If you try to take our guns we will kill you". "Better to die on your feet in freedom than living on your knees as a slave".

As for the guy who said he'd kill LEO for trying to take his gun, we all saw the truth and how that one worked out. And believe it or not, he still spews the same bullshit. As for the latter statement, we are already living as slaves, and noone is taking heads, noone is disappearing Bad People, noone is hunting LEO.

I would caution Patriots to talk softly and carry a big stick. When one makes threats to do X or Y, and then fails to do X or Y when challenged, we all suffer by association with a blowhard.

If you draw a line in the sand with articulated responses if that line is crossed, back up your threats, or do not make the threats in the first place.

Please.
