I have no faith in any leader, especially anybody who wants to be one.

Calm is good, but calm for one hundred years of corruption, is what a good soldier does. Never questioning his/her orders, never questioning why s/he should join or participate in a draft, never questioning authority. I don't care how much military experience the author of this article has. It is obvious he was clueless to begin with, as in he joined the military. It takes a lot of repairs to fix what he helped to create, and I haven't seen any repairs yet.

One of the keys to making a repair, is to figure out what is wrong, and stop more of the same from happening. Yes, there are assholes who want to manipulate the situation. Yes blood spilled is not pleasurable, but how long has this crap been going on?

The above link barely scratches the surface. You can rationalize yourself into not doing anything, as the headlights get closer and brighter every second. You also can act irrationally and get yourself killed without benefit, to your family or anyone else. But sometimes making a point, is worth it. This may or may not be one of those situations.

My first response, when watching one of the videos about this situation was "where the hell were you when I was dealing with corruption?", but that is not a helpful response.

Victory for a battle starts with not putting yourself or anyone else into a situation where you or they have to do battle. That being said, kids do stupid shit.

Naive people are in abundance on this planet, and it is well known that they tend to trust everyone, as if they were of a similar state of mind. Of course, not everyone is of the same state of mind. Learning comes at great cost in those types of situations.

I am sick of people using the fear of death to talk down people who may or may not be standing up for themselves. When is a good time to die? When do you stop redrawing the line that the control freaks and financial junkies are not to cross?

The "patriot" movement is like a bowel movement, when you gotta have one, you will have one, end of story. There is no fear of real liberty minded people ever failing to be liberty minded. There is no fear of people with balls failing to stand up for themselves. It doesn't matter if another shoots himself in the foot.

There have been people fighting abusive behavior for many years, and military, law enforcement, and similar groups have just been "doing their job" regardless of the suffering going on, so spare me the crap. If everyone waits for an agreed upon plan of action to deal with all this corruption, we'll all be dead or brainwashed before any change for the better occurs.

What's worse, planning to frighten the people into not even daring to ever take a stand against them again, or frightening people into never taking a stand. Oooh, its to risky, that plan will never work, you must be crazy to go up against the entire government. Please, the majority of government are pencil pushers.

The government/media have been labeling dissenters forever, get over it, who cares what assholes call you.

You might be goaded into a fight.
You might be goaded into not fighting.
You might have your head up your ass.
You might need an ass kicking to get you to wake up.
