I will exercise a bit more editorial control than usual - if you offer a flame, senseless hyperbole or useless diversionary commentary, it will not make it to the thread.
Every man on the Green in Lexington was deeply involved in 'politics' before they resorted to their arms. During the Revolution and after, 'politics' was involved every step of the way. Anyone who thinks violence alone will restore a state of Liberty is incorrect.
Solutions, please - not re-hashing the problems.

You need a group of people who are willing to work together and not let their fucking egos get in the way. You also need lots of money. Think RNC or DNC level funds.
Then you need to establish a political platform. And not a single issue platform like gun control. You need to have a platform for every fucking little namby-pamby thing that Joe Average cares about. And you have to have simple emotional explanations for everything.
Once you do that, you have to accept that you're just another minority special interest group and start acting like one. Infiltrate and influence the existing political infrastructure, start getting your people elected, and start shifting public perception of your particular minority towards tolerance and acceptance. Engage in psychological attacks and character assassinations against political opposition. Bail your people out of jail when they get arrested and engage in high-power legal battles aimed at getting laws changed. Purchase media outlets and use them to advance your agenda. Just like other minority special interest groups.
What few 3%ers realize is that the endgame of what they are advocating means the replacement of the current sociopolitical establishment of this country, and that they will have to become the future sociopolitical establishment if they wish to succeed. That is non-negotiable. Otherwise someone else will come along and do it. The other thing they fail to realize is that this is going to take a few decades to do. The "Civil Rights" movements had their start in the mid 1950s and 1960s. Look how long it took them to get to where they are now.
People are going to get jailed. Their families will need to be taken care of. Whistleblowers will need assistance when they lose their jobs. Political contributions will have to be made to swing neutrals in your direction. Large-scale protests will have to be conducted sans permission and free-speech zones. People are going to get their heads busted in. Look at what happened during the 1960s.
And you're going to have to do it all with an active opposition against you that controls 99% of the mass media.
With that said, I personally advocate the Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged approach because I don't believe anyone in the 3% is capable of it.
