Nemo me impune lacesset

No one will provoke me with impunity

“…and that a dangerous ambition more often lurks behind the specious mask of zeal for the rights of the people than under the forbidden appearance of zeal for the firmness and efficiency of government. History will teach us that the former has been found a much more certain road to the introduction of despotism than the latter, and that of those men who have overturned the liberties of republics, the greatest number have begun their career by paying an obsequious court to the people; commencing demagogues, and ending tyrants." –Federalist No. 1, General Introduction, Alexander Hamilton

For many years I’ve watched the forward march that my beloved United States has taken towards true democracy and away from republicanism. I, like many of my fellow patriots, felt powerless and alone in what seemed to us an overwhelming force of sheep who willing marched to the drum of despotism and mob rule. For that is truly what democracy leads too.

For generations the progressive left has slithered its way into our education system and media outlets and brain washed millions of sheep into believing that this country is a democracy, that the founding fathers were nothing but slave holding, misogynistic, rich white men protecting their fortunes and power. The capitalism and free market economies of this, the richest most powerful nation in the history of man is the root of all evil in the world and why so many people were poor and oppressed.

The majority of Americans knew this wasn’t true. We just didn’t realize we were still the majority, until Barak Hussein Obama was elected president and we saw the wolf take off his sheep’s skin and the progressive left begin to rapidly and openly work to destroy what was left of the Republic of the United States. The rise of the Tea Party demonstrated quite clearly that there is not as many cool-aid drinking sheep in America as we all thought.

We are now in an open struggle to save our country and the birthright of liberty and freedom bestowed upon us by our creator and codified in our Constitution. We are in a fight to save our children from themselves and the brain washing they’ve received. We are in a fight to save our very way of life and the future of freedom and liberty in the world. As Ronald Reagan said, "If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth.”

This is my answer to the call of patriotism I feel within my blood. My voice crying out in the wilderness of Americans, calling out for the end of progressivism and a return to the founding principles that made this country the greatest beacon of hope and freedom the world has ever known. This is our struggle in our time for a new American Revolution. We begin as our fore fathers did. We plead and argue with logic, truth and determination. We use diplomacy and the system to try to alter the course of events. We pray that our words and actions at the ballot box will redeem our liberty from the oppressive government that seeks to crush us. But like our fore fathers, we are prepared to take up arms in the defense of our liberties and water the tree of liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants. By ballot or bullet, we must be free!
