FROM ROB (Contributor) IN TEXAS
Two hundred and forty-eight years and six days ago some dude named Jefferson wrote the following:
“ governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience has shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.”
I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Writing letters to the editor won’t do it, because the media are part and parcel of the abusers and usurpers. Voting for different leaders won’t help because the voting system has been completely corrupted by the absolute despots to insure their death grip on power.
The Founders reached a point where they couldn’t live another day under the leadership of the mad king of their era, along with his minions, and they did the unthinkable.
We have reached that same point. Think about it. Real hard. It’s time.
