BE YOUR OWN LEADER

BE YOUR OWN LEADER

That’s what I do and that’s what you need to do if you want to survive what’s coming. What’s here now.

What’s here now is the proverbial Fat Lady singing on the preplanned destruction of America. Our America. The jobs are gone, we’ve pissed off the entire planet, we’ve signed over responsibility for our country over to the CEO’s, banksters, lawyers, bureaucrats who have perpetrated our destruction. We’re bankrupt in every measurable way, overstretched, millions are destitute, our cities and infrastructure crumbling or outright imploding.

We by and large can’t even find our own country on a map. Can’t even properly answer why our Ancestors rebelled against the most powerful empire on Earth and won. Or do basic arithmetic in our heads. Balance our personal finances. Discern when we’re being hustled-let alone do something about it. Defend ourselves against the modern day barbarians in the bankster created urban ghettos.

Our Ancestors led themselves, could lead themselves. They were, allowing for the knowledge base, one of the most educated populations in Earth’s history. And they certainly could find their own country on a map-and name all the cities, counties, rivers, mountains, and bordering states.

Our Ancestors knew when they were getting screwed. Tried for decades before that fateful day in Massechuttsettes April 19, 1775 to alleviate, ameliorate what their king and government were doing to them.(Really it’s a pittance compared to what’s been done to us-but that just shows you how totally they’ve screwed us.)

And our Ancestors were able to fight and win against the most powerful government and military on Earth because they knew how to add, read, had business sense, grow their own food, make their own weapons and ammunition. Most of all because they were willing to fight back. At the least take over their local governments when they became corrupt-and after that day on the road back to Boston from Lexington take on the British Army and beat them.

After which our Ancestors expanded, took an entire continent-and after a long series of ill advised wars against Native Americans and each other over slavery forged a nation. Which the banksters and their lawyer and bureaucrat agents twisted into an empire-their America. Then again the banksters have always been in charge. They’ve had to be careful as Americans were smart, self-sufficient, armed, tough and willing to fight…

So they laid their groudwork, the foundation for taming us. After engineering depression and economic calamity to stir up reactions the banksters got approval for a secret convention in 1787. That is where the constitution was written; on the surface a blueprint for divided, distributed government it actually blocked reform, spread responsibility while quietly allowing this American ‘elite’ to maintain control over their presumed subjects. All you need to remind you it was an elitist document cleverly configured to seemingly promote freedom is that slavery was still recognized and a slave was 3/5 of a vote.

It was pushed onto the American People in a classic fear campaign mixed with political blackmail that saw Rhode Island subject to complete embargo to break it. Only the inclusion of a watered down Bill of Rights for the People to hold onto some hope of justice enabled it to pass, become the law of the land.

So the banksters got their government. Then they set out to get our minds.

Education was the logical choice; 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, 9 months out of the year for 8 to 12 years the minds of generations of Americans were the plaything of the educators. Steeped in the Prussian school of education-turn out obedient workers and soldiers-they still maintained a high level of learning but instilled in the American regimentation, obedience.

If you can get a person to obey you, you can get them to do anything else you want. Get their kids to trust you, you can start to quietly, subtly degrade their education. In 1909 high school students could read and converse in latin. In 2009 high school kids have to go to college remedial courses to get only part of the education the high school kids in 1909 got before they reached puberty.

The law too gradually became the exclusive playground of the lawyers. See, back in the early days of America people represented themselves in court-they knew the law. A few decades after the 1787 constitution was shoved down our throats the lawyers openly took over, both representing clients and judging. A 13th Amendment banning titles of nobility and prohibiting said persons from holding office… esquire is a title of nobility… was quietly ommitted from public record. Every single judge, representative and public servant who is a lawyer is actually in violation of the law. Try to bring that up in court…

With the takeover by the lawyers and the dumbing down of Americans the next step came with the industrial revolution-the move into the cities. Starting in the 19th century the trend really came into its own after 1900 with the automobile. Millions of Americans regimented to work in the factories instead of running their own lives… gun control began to be applied to all Americans instead of just blacks and indians. And it was accepted by people who never shot a gun, never took care of themselves, depended on the very people who tried to enslave their ancestors.

Next they created the engine for our dissolution with the Federal Reserve Act passed by three traitor senators in secret session on Christmas Eve, along with the Internal Revenue Service Act as a collection service. With the nation’s treasury in the hands of a cartel of banksters-the same banksters who manipulate the stock markets and economy, forced their 1787 constitution down our throats, they had the mechanism to debase the currency when Roosevelt took us off the gold standard and stole Americans gold by law-his first act as President! Replaced with “federal reserve notes”, not even lawful money… they commenced on a century of printing more and more dollars, devaluing the bills in your pocket so you have to spend more to buy. Even after the postwar boom alleviated the effects of bankster created depression and war(Wall Street financed both Hitler and Stalin-ha! ha!)the overall trend was to destroy America with dependence on the bankster owned factories… that would be shipped overseas because its cheaper to pay a Indonesian a dollar a day instead of an American ten dollars an hour. The government made the bankster economic strip mining of their own factories official policy; having been conditioned, trained for generations to work for massah what are a nation of slaves to do? Grow their own food? Start their own business? From local to federal the tax codes and regulations were written to suppress that as much as possible while encouraging dependence on megacorporate superstores and disappearing factory jobs.

What nailed us however was the rise of mass media-motion pictures, radio, television. The best social psychologists were employed to shape, guide the minds of millions of unsuspecting Americans. Guide them into docility, into materialism, into blind patriotism when needed, apathy the rest of the time. All being mediums requiring massive amounts of investment to produce and operate they lent themselves to our enemies machinations. We came to love our oppressors.

Love our idols who made it cool to be stupid, apathetic, selfish, materialistic, ignorant of everything but keeping your wage slave job and the bankster owned sports team you’re trained to live vicariously through. Love our con artists who took us for usurious loans and interest rates. Love our thieves for ever increasing taxes and masking it behind some b.s. public good excuse as they hid the real state of govenrment finances in the consolidated annual financial reports. Love our murderers when they took the lives of people just wanting a job, or food, or promised benefits, or just because they’re a different skin color.

America has been in a 220 year civil war; a war between two Americas….

…Our America, the Land of the Free…

…and the United States government and its controlling corporate interests, it’s millions of laws and millions of lawyers, bureaucrats, and thug cops to enforce them.

…yet it hasn’t been an entirely one-sided struggle.

Whiskey Rebellion, 1791-Western PA farmers used corn liquor made with their humble stills as an alternative currency. Alexander Hamilton however, the architect of the 1787 constitution wanted to quickly assert more federal control. Those farmers, having fought government tyranny when they were British subjects started yet again on the warpath to maintain their basic livelihood. Being President George Washington’s aide d’ camp(a kind of lieutenant with authority) during the Revolutionary War and now Secretary of Treasury he had Washington personally lead an army into Western PA to crush this rebellion before it became a revolution.

Anti-Masonic Party, 1830’s-The Freemasons were the architects of the American Revolution, and ultimately the United States government and 1787 constitution. Naturally the lower level freemasons would move to take advantage, work the local offices, do favors for each other, favor each other over their fellow soldiers (“profane” to them) in battle. Our ancestors formed a party specifically to throw all the freemasons they could out of office, drive them back to their temples…. not quite far enough unfortunately.

Andrew Jackson and the Second United States Bank-President Jackson, a veteran of both the American Revolution and the War of 1812 faced off against the banksters when they wanted the charter for the Second US Bank renewed. Which was a predecessor of the cartel federal reserve system. Thanks to his actions during his term of office America enjoyed a stable dollar for eighty more years-until Americans forgot, nodded off to sleep enough for three traitorous senators to pass the federal reserve act and the 16th Amendment…

Civil War-say what you will about the Confederacy’s defense of states rights to protect slavery(you should) and the latent racism they still put up a hell of a fight against the federal government trying to assert domination over the states. Keep in mind Lincoln didn’t give a damn about blacks, would have kept slavery if they could break the power of the states. And broke they were, allowing the federal government to expand after the war. On the other hand Lincoln’s institution of the Greenback-interest free money straight from the US government to help pay for the war effort-likely contributed to his death as much as slavery or the invasion in the first place.

Battle of Little Big Horn, 1876-the Plains Indians united to oppose gold mining in the Black Hills-promised to them by treaty(the US government never honors treaties). The details of that battle are well enough known but one must realize it was due to broken promises and greed that made the Native Americans make yet another stand. They can only be thankful Custer thought the two Gatling Guns in his wagon train too heavy and balky to be taken into battle-being a quick acting cavalry officer.

Turn of the last century, ordinary Americans worked to death in the factories and mines peaceably revolted repeatedly. They formed unions to organize, form a collective bargaining position because it’s obvious you cannot deal with powerful corporations that practically own you and can literally murder you without any repercussions. The Carnegies, Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, and the like bought armed thugs, belt fed machine guns and negotiated with bullets and blood. Literal battles were fought and lost-and won by Americans. Eventually the unions won significant concessions from the banksters-so their leadership was co-opted and the unions became another control mechanism for our enemies.

Bonus Army March on Washington DC, 1932-The depression was taking a horrific toll on Americans, with millions out of work, going hungry, starving. Thank the banksters for creating the financial bubbles they popped; they were creating the foundation of desperation that would allow FDR to bring in the “new deal” of socialist control and taxes. First, the American People had to be beaten down to the point of accepting this. The soldiers who braved suicidal marches over open ground against machine guns were starving, their families were starving in front of them. In desperation they made one more march on Washington DC-where Gen. Douglas McArthur, Col’s Dwight D. Eisenhower and George Patton led the U.S. Army against them with cavalry, tanks, aircraft. The shantytown they had build(“hooverville”)was burnt to the ground, murdering hundreds. The Bonus Marchers were unarmed. Probably, the banksters were hoping for such a demonstration so that Herbert Hoover would be blamed for the atrocity, and bring in FDR.

Battle of Athens, Tennessee August 2, 1946-Returning American Servicemen were greeted by a corrupt local govenrment run like a criminal racket. Nothing unusual there-most local government IS corrupt-but if you had a single beer and stepped outside a bar you were arrested, brought to their kangaroo court and robbed. That was just one example, for the criminals had many statutes with which they could profiteer at the expense of the People.

Having liberated people from totalitarian governments in Europe and the Pacific the men of McMinn County decided to do something about it-THEY FORMED A FULL TICKET OF G.I. CANDIDATES TO SWEEP THEIR GOVERNMENT CLEAN. The local criminals in public service tried intimidation-assaulting a G.I., then taking the ballots and a couple G.I.’s prisoner and barricading themselves in the local jail. The G.I.’s did something about that-going to the National Guard Armory, collecting the small arms and ammunition there and laid siege to the jail until dynamite could be procured and used to blow the doors open. The crooks surrendered, nobody was killed and the Tennessee state government declined to interfere, lest a much larger campaign get set off.

The Patriot Movement of today-in spite of all the government disinfo and dissemblers, the agent provocateurs, the systematic and all pervasive thought control and with practically no resources-this movement has been brought low repeatedly only to rise again bigger and stronger. Patriots like Gordon Kahl, William Cooper, Vicky Weaver who were murdered; their deaths only drew attention to how right they have been in resisting the beast. The 90’s Militia Movement which suffered a false-flag attack via Oklahoma City-getting the blame for what the federal government perpetrated, has been resurrected in this decade by the very actions of the banksters and their minions in completing their great and terrible plan. Barack Obama’s election alone resulted in the greatest arms procurement by the American People in history, making any martial law endgame impossible to win in the long run, even if just one out of 10,000 resists. It is imperative however that those in the struggle fight to win.

There are many ways to fight-most of the best don’t involve a single act of violence.

First, you must get ready.

Start with yourself:

Stop watching the TV! Television’s the enemy’s number one mind control weapon. It is propaganda, lies, distraction. It makes you think how the so-called “elite” want you to. Turn it the hell off.

Now that you’ve stopped watching television you’ll find you have a lot more time on your hands. Get in shape: walk, lift weights, do some participatory sport. Better yet, learn how to shoot a rifle, it not only will save your life someday, it instills discipline and a methodical approach in the basic steps of firing the shot that can be transferred to a lot of other areas of your life.

Get on the internet-while it’s still up-and learn about what’s really going on. Don’t just rely on one source, cross examine different viewpoints, develop your own conclusions. Our Ancestors who fought and won the Revolutionary War did, and they didn’t have the net. Oh, and download as much survival and how to information as possible. Especially prized are 90’s survival books. Use a public access computer that doesn’t have a web camera and that you don’t have to register to use, otherwise you might as well be doing this at home.

Cut your expenses, up your cash flow. Entrepenurialship is the way to go-stop working for massah corporation and massah state, getting less than a penny for(ever shrinking in purchasing power)federal reserve note’s worth of work you put in. If you have a trade or skill offer them under the table. If you have land grow extra vegetables. Work the swap meets, flea markets, or start one yourself. Stop paying the credit cards, they are a trap-repudiate the debt. The banksters have been at war with you, return the favor!

If your home is being foreclosed, make them produce the note at the court hearing. If they can’t the foreclosure’s null and void because they cannot prove ownership.

Form or join a survival network-a circle of people you can trust with your life. If you can’t trust them with your life, forget them. Have safe houses and several different ways of getting there. Establish mail drops and dead drops. Have a couple home defense guns at the most for your home, stash the rest with the bulk of your ammo. Get all the rifle training and survival training you can-not just the commando stuff but how to do basic survival stuff, like grow your own food, build, that sort of thing. From your circles will build the Free Communities that will organically grow and become the heart of the resurgence of Our America.

Most important of all establish your own relationship with God. Theological debates aside, all the churches are 501(c)3-that means they are not only censored by government edict, they have become fronts for instilling obedience to martial law and the end of Our America. Shun them and shun those that hear the truth but refuse to heed! Which will force you to find God on your own anyways. Find a quiet place where you won’t be interrupted; calm your thoughts and feel what your heart says. Close your eyes. It will take some time and effort but before long Our Father will speak-now your next task is to learn to listen. Think of God as not a dictator but the one that is overhead and sees the big picture-and wants us to win. He’s guiding us to victory and since God has perspective…

We’d be Free already if more people would listen to Our Father.

FOR THOSE COMMITTED TO PUSHING BACK THE TIDE OF GOVERNMENT POWER

Start with your own community. Or a community that’s politically vulnerable-the ruling clique is weak or overconfident and the People are pissed. Follow the example of the GI’s of Athens Tennessee and have a full ticket of candidates-and challenge any attempt at vote fraud. Use the recall election so you don’t have to wait for the next election cycle.

I explain this in much greater detail with my articles, IT’S TIME and RECALL ELECTION: OBSTACLES TO OVERCOME:

Suffice it to state in this article, local political activism, debt repudiation, dollar substitution, the underground economy and basic survival steps are going to be the foundation of the Second American Revolution-not futile Alamo style last stands.

BEWARE! GOVERNMENT SENDS INFILTRATORS INTO ORGANIZATIONS

Any organization that you join, has already been penetrated, compromised, or was set up by the enemy in the first place to trap and divert Patriots from being effective. You have to expect this because the government has a vested interest in maintaining the status quo-which is literally killing us.

You must be on the lookout for those that either call for violent action when it would be monumentally stupid, or calls for not taking any action when the obvious needs to be done. This has happened many times. Another attack angle is the operative who will gain prominence, then reveal themselves as a flake in order to discredit the movement.
Deep Cover Operatives-these will be long term agents who will spend years, decades, building up credibility in order to gain leadership. Once they have a powerful following they will divert their organization away from actions that will be the most effective.

Most organizations will be led by good people-but the immediate lieutenants will have agendas, or be penetration agents, deep cover operatives who will monitor the org., take down names, and generally act to sabotage the group. They will automatically deny certain facts. They will sabotage efforts that are the most effective, seek to cut off and discredit those who are being attacked.

Be ready to do end runs around such operatives, as they will have wormed their way into positions of power-since our movement is mostly internet based they will be forum moderators or webmasters. So compile your own e-mails of those you can trust and communicate privately. If the website/org. owner is basically a good guy, get together and bombard his e-mail with messages about the shady characters. If the org is run by a deep cover operative, expose him and run him out-or set up another org.

ENGINEERING THE IDIOCRACY

ENGINEERING THE IDIOCRACY

IDIOCRACY-NOT A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE BUT A MIRROR HELD UP TO OURSELVES

 

Idiocracy was a movie put out a few years ago.  It was on its surface a comedy, staring Luke Wilson as a US Army private, a complete slacker, who is placed into a program testing a cryogenic process to preserve the military’s best warriors until they’re needed for some war or whatever.  Never mind they’re building a literal Terminator style Skynet and a family of robotic weapons-but that’s beside the point.   The point is, due to typical bureaucratic mismanagement the project gets scrapped and somehow the cryogenic chambers Luke Wilson and some prostitute played by Maya Rudolph get thrown into a garbage heap-America in the year 2505.

 

Idiocracy America: I think we’re a little closer than you think….

 

Well, as Luke Wilson and Maya Rudolph sleep, America and the world degenerate.  No, not by nuclear war, famine, Earth changes or some other cataclysm, but through a maintained path of pollution, waste, and deliberately dumbed down people(although HOW future ‘murikans were deliberately dumbed down isn’t touched).  By the 24^th century there are literally mountains of garbage-which avalanche, reveal the cryogenic chambers and Luke is awakened… in some idiot’s apartment as he watches a show consisting of a man repeatedly getting his balls assaulted in one way or another. 

 

Television in the 21^st-er, 24^th century… Ow!  My head!

 

Ignoring the obvious mess, the man gets off his couch/toilet and throws Luke out, and the man staggers along in a Calcutta police state with cameras and soldier cops everywhere. 

 

Po-lice in the Idiocracy.  Rockin…

 

The, er… “people”… are retarded derivations of Hispanic, Black and Appalachian urban poor, dependent on the creaking, crumbling automated infrastructure they’ve long forgotten how to take care of, and through centuries of the stupid lower class people outbirthing the too-intelligent-yet-too-ignorant-for-their-own-good “smart” upper class people… guess what?  Everyone’s a ‘tard. 

 

I know more than a few dudes like him now…

 

Luke can’t get no help from these bred down, dumbed down people as the creaky automated police state they’re hopelessly dependent on has its way with him-until a test determines this guy, a complete slacker, average in every way-is the smartest man on Earth.

 

Yah.

 

Anyone who can put two and two together is too smart for the average ‘murkan

 

And that creaky automated system has broken down so much they can’t even grow crops anymore.  Because they’re irrigating with a sports drink(“it’s got electrolytes”).  Luke comes up with the solution to use water-but that puts the sports drink maker out of business.  Which puts most of America out of work. 

 

Will Obama resort to weighlifting, weave and firing a M249 SAW to keep his polls up?

 

He’s put on trial, sentenced to “rehabilitation”, where he’s to get run over by monster trucks.  Maya however sees that the plants are growing under the water(does it have flouride?  Of course).  She enlists the help of one of the tards, shows footage of the crops growing under the water, saves the day and they get married and he becomes president.  America’s still a shithole.    

 

WE’RE IN A IDIOCRACY-NOT A DEMOCRACY

 

Television, the electronic narcotic; centrally controlled reality distorting, lying media that’s in every home in America.  Hollywood studios and Madison Avenue put out the approved programming.  It is programming-programming you  how to think, dress, act, give you the approved opinions, designate the approved enemies. 

 

All the programs show the same stereotypes, the same caring and competent cops and doctors and lawyers and judges.  The same retarded, low-bred (put your stereotype here).  The system’s basically good.  Liberals are saints, but there’s a token amount of “right wingers” to preserve the artifice of the American left/right paradigm.

 

And don’t you DARE own guns!  Or question authority!  Or think for yourself, find out things for yourself.  Certainly, you need to leave politics to the politicians-you’ll be missing the next American Idol or the weekend ball game.  You don’t want to be seen as some kind of freak-do you?  Just kick back after working for the same corporations that have enslaved you, watch their television programming, feast on their corporate farm produced poison/food.  And if that isn’t enough there’s a medical diagnosis readily available to facilitate a legal prescription-just don’t get caught driving with your pills…

 

Not 500 years from now-NOW!

 

I must repeat, Americans spend several hours a day passively taking in the products of corporations and government pysops.  The same people who’ve already transformed America into an idiocracy have transformed Americans into a kind of hive mind, a group mind whose common nexus is… that widescreen you give your time and devotion to every night. 

 

 

 

Naked corporate sponsorship of propaganda, by half naked teleprompter readers?  Why not, were about there now. 

 

 

State schools

 

John Taylor Gatto and Charlotte Isebyrt have exposed the treasonous sabotage of American minds in grade school.  America’s state schools were patterned after the Prussian model; regimentation meant to instill obediency and willingness to perform repetitive tasks for days, months, years, decades if necessary.  Learn how to think?  That would allow Americans to analyze their situation objectively.  Learn about the truth of their past and in detail?  That would allow Americans to compare what their corporate massahs are doing now, compare that to the past-and figure out what they’ve lost.  And then how would a nation be harnessed for the benefit of a few way too rich old white men?

 

 

Better there be misspelt signs than deal with a energized, awakened, hostile people.

 

Corporate run culture

 

I know I bust on the television, and it needs busting on, but have you ever watched “Mad Men”?  Madison Avenue salesmen have been using the television and psychology to sell buying all the crap they sell.  Not having a clue, our parents and grandparents bought the sophisticated mind control, got themselves and us into debt.

 

We don’t need to wait 500 or 5 years for corporate takeover and pimping of every facet of life-people are wearing corporate swag as fashion now.  Every stadium and convention center has a corporate sponsor that puts their corporate name on the damn building.  Grade school athletic teams whore themselves for corporate sponsorship.

 

 

…In a few years, I could see the above sign being commonplace-feeding millions of fat, stupid ‘murkans gorging themselves on grease, preservatives, rotten meat and God knows what else!

 

 

 

In the movie, America was so dependent on this gatorade-like drink they irrigate their crops with it.  America is positively addicted to their aspartame and flouride filled soft drinks.

 

 

What keeps the police state going?  Taxes.  How do you sell the dumbest people on Earth to remember to pay their taxes?  Sex.  I could see that happening but troops with grenade launchers for handguns would be the preferred IRS technique.

 

Corporate run wasteland

 

 

Corporations have taken over the American economy, monopolized it and have run the whole country into the ground with their “free trade” that have drained this country of its productive capacity and their Madison Avenue consumerism that have along with a ever-weakening dollar reduced most of us into debt slavery.

 

 

 

We live in what can be called in part a merchantilist dictatorship.  A corporate oligarchy so pervase, so all-powerful the biggest buildings are corporate edifices.  Fashion is advertising.  And the only way to keep a roof over your head and some kind of… food… in your fat diabetic gut is to work for the very corporations that pimp you out for 19 out of every 20 bucks you earn-and the government takes half of that last dollar… then you got rent, gas, utilities, which enrich some incorporation or another.  That last few cents?  Guess where you spend it-way too big corporations.  Like so:

From Debt Repudiation: Time to free yourselves from fraud by author.

 

Scientific dictatorship.  That’s what we live under and if you think abou it there’s no other way to deal with the situation than face it head on. 

 

Fortunately, the enemy’s engineered economic collapse is also offering a golden opportunity-to see how things really are, to break free of the beast and its debt slavery the electronic narcotic, the preoccupation with baubles and passive entertainments.  Seeing how much danger they’re in, Americans have been arming up at a rate unparalleled in American history, the greatest arms race in history is happening now between the American People and the United States Government.

 

Armed, intelligent, Free people cannot be slaves.

 

It isn’t enough however to arm yourself, to recognize the toxins both mental and physical that our enemies have pumped us full of.  We as a People and as individuals must aspire to become the utmost we can be.  To reach for the pinnacle of human potential.

 

LEONARDO DA VINCI

 

A contemporary of Nicolai Maciavelli, Da Vinci’s artistic and scientific accomplishments are monumental; it could be stated he was the spark of the Renaissance.  At the time, Italy was just a geographic term: dozens of small states were constantly at war with each other, making the land vulnerable to conquest for centuries but for the power of the Pope in Rome and the Venetian Empire.

 

 

Renaissance Italy

 

Although working with late medieval technology his concepts of the tank, the breech loading cannon, automobiles, aircraft, armored warships would all be realized by the Industrial Revolution.  He had incredible artistic talent, and could draw a self-portrait without the aid of a mirror.

 

 

 

See, this essay’s useful after all-just get some DOM pipe, welding equipment, build a mount….

 

Not only was Leonardo Da Vinci an intellectual giant, he was physically more than a match for any of the brain dead thugs held up for worship by the “elites” Idiocracy.

 

 

From Wikipedia:

 

Leonardo da Vinci, (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519), is regarded as the archetypal Renaissance Man. Little is known about his personal life and he appears to have been secretive about his most intimate relationships. However, much research and speculation has been invested in these aspects of his life, because of the fascination exerted by his artistic and scientific genius, and his apparent personal magnetism.^[2]

Description and analysis of Leonardo’s character, personal desires and intimate behaviour has been based upon a number of sources: records concerning him, his biographies, his own written journals, his paintings, his drawings, his associates and speculations that were made concerning him by contemporaries.

These demonstrate a man who appears to have benefitted from his nurturing family, who worked with others cooperatively in apprenticeship and encouragingly as a master and who provided well for the needs of those for whom he had responsibility.

Leonardo Da Vinci had a number of powerful patrons, including the King of France. He had, over the years, a large number of followers and pupils. With two of these in particular, Salai and Melzi, he maintained close relationships.

 

Descriptions and portraits of Leonardo combine to create an image of a man who was tall, athletic and extremely handsome. Portraits indicate that as an older man, he wore his hair long, at a time when most men wore it cropped short, or reaching to the shoulders. While most men were shaven or wore close-cropped beards, Leonardo’s beard flowed over his chest.

His clothing is described as being unusual in his choice of bright colours, and at a time when most mature men wore long garments, Leonardo’s preferred outfit was the short tunic and hose generally worn by younger men.

 

According to Vasari, “In the normal course of events many men and women are born with various remarkable qualities and talents; but occasionally, in a way that transcends nature, a single person is marvellously endowed by heaven with beauty, grace and talent in such abundance that he leaves other men far behind….Everyone acknowledged that this was true of Leonardo da Vinci, an artist of outstanding physical beauty who displayed infinite grace in everything he did and who cultivated his genius so brilliantly that all problems he studied were solved with ease. He possessed great strength and dexterity; he was a man of regal spirit and tremendous breadth of mind…”^[3]

Leonardo was a man with great personal appeal, kindness and generosity and was generally well-loved by his contemporaries.

According to Vasari “Leonardo’s disposition was so lovable that he commanded everyone’s affection”. He was “a sparkling conversationalist” who charmed Ludovico il Moro with his wit. Vasari sums him up by saying “In appearance he was striking and handsome, and his magnificent presence brought comfort to the most troubled soul; he was so persuasive that he could bend other people to his will. He was physically so strong that he could withstand violence and with his right hand he could bend the ring of an iron door knocker or a horseshoe as if they were lead. He was so generous that he fed all his friends, rich or poor…. Through his birth Florence received a very great gift, and through his death it sustained an incalculable loss.”

Some of Leonardo’s personal wisdom is to be found in a series of fables that he wrote. A prevalent theme is the mistake of placing too high esteem upon one’s self, and the benefits to be gained through awareness, humility and endeavour.

The diversity of Leonardo’s interests, remarked on by Vasari as apparent in his early childhood, was to express itself in his journals which record his scientific observations of nature, his meticulous dissection of corpses to understand anatomy, his experiments with machines for flying, for generating power from water and for besieging cities, his studies of geometry and his architectural plans, as well as personal memos and creative writing including fables.

It appears from Vasari’s description that Leonardo first learnt to play the lyre as a child and that he was very talented at improvisation. In about 1479 he created a lyre in the shape of a horse’s head, which was made “mostly of silver”, and of “sonorous and resonant” tone. Lorenzo de’Medici saw this lyre and wishing to better his relationship with Ludovico Sforza, the usurping Duke of Milan, he sent Leonardo to present this lyre to the Duke as a gift. Leonardo’s musical performances so far surpassed those of Ludovico’s court musicians that the Duke was delighted.

 

Leonardo always loved nature. One of the reasons was because of his childhood environment. Near his childhood house were mountains, trees, and rivers. There were also many animals. This environment gave him the perfect chance to study the surrounding area; it also may have encouraged him to have interest in painting. The two earliest memories of his childhood were of a kite hovering over his cradle, and of a cave in the woods.

Leonardo was and is renowned primarily as a painter. Two of his works, the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, are the most famous, most reproduced and most parodied portrait and religious painting of all time, respectively, their fame approached only by Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam. Leonardo’s drawing of the Vitruvian Man is also regarded as a cultural icon, being reproduced on everything from the Euro to text books to t-shirts. Perhaps fifteen of his paintings survive, the small number due to his constant, and frequently disastrous, experimentation with new techniques, and his chronic procrastination. Nevertheless, these few works, together with his notebooks, which contain drawings, scientific diagrams, and his thoughts on the nature of painting, comprise a contribution to later generations of artists only rivalled by that of his contemporary, Michelangelo.

Leonardo is revered for his technological ingenuity. He conceptualised a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, a calculator, the double hull and outlined a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics. Relatively few of his designs were constructed or were even feasible during his lifetime, but some of his smaller inventions, such as an automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire, entered the world of manufacturing unheralded.As a scientist, he greatly advanced the state of knowledge in the fields of anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics^.

End quote but can you imagine such a man living today?!  Talk about the absolute opposite of the tards of the American idiocracy.  DaVinci would probably be diagnosed by some psychiatric witch doctor, given ritalin and had his mind destroyed in public schools.

Leonardo DaVinci had a methodical mind, this is a breakdown of how he thought according to his own writings; taken from the internet under Fair Use.

 

 

1.         Curiosità. Curiosità is an “insatiably curious approach to life and unrelenting quest for continuous learning”. Great minds have one characteristic in common: they continuously ask questions throughout their lives. Leonardo’s endless quest for truth and beauty clearly demonstrates this. What makes great minds different is the quality of their questions. You can increase your ability to solve problems by increasing your ability to ask good questions. Like da Vinci, you should cultivate an open mind that allows you to broaden your universe and increase your ability to explore it. Here are some ways to apply Curiosità:

 

o          Keep a journal. Bring a journal wherever you go and use it often. Write your ideas and thoughts there. Try to write several statements a day that start with “I wonder why/how…”

 

o          Observe according to a theme. Choose a theme and observe things according to the theme for a day. For example, let’s say you choose “communication”. For the entire day, observe every type and instance of communication you come across. You can then record your observations in your journal.

 

o          Stream of consciousness exercise. Pick a question and write the thoughts and associations that occur to you as they are. Don’t edit them. The important thing is to keep writing. This is also referred to as freewriting.

 

2.        

 

Dimostrazione. Dimostrazione is “a commitment to test knowledge through experience, persistence, and a willingness to learn from mistake”. Wisdom comes from experience and the principle of Dimostrazione helps you get the most out of your experience. Here are some ways to apply Dimostrazione:

 

o          Check your beliefs. Do you hold any beliefs that you haven’t verified through experience?

 

o          Three points of view. First, make a strong argument against your belief. Next, take a distant view of your belief (for example, as if you live in a different culture) and review it. Finally, find friends who can give you different perspectives.

 

o          Analyze the advertisements that affect you. Look at the advertisements in your favorite magazine and analyze the strategy and tactics they use. Find the advertisements that affect you most and find out why.

 

o          Find “anti-role models” to learn from. List the names of some people whose mistakes you want to avoid. Learn from them so that you won’t encounter the same pitfalls.

 

3.        

 

Sensazione. Sensazione is “the continual refinement of the senses, especially sight, as the means to enliven experience”. According to da Vinci, we can best practice Dimostrazione through our senses, particularly sight. That’s why one of Leonardo’s mottoes is saper vedere (knowing how to see) upon which he built his work in arts and science. Here are some ways to apply Sensazione:

 

o          Write detailed description of an experience. For instance, describe your experience of watching a sunrise in your journal.

 

o          Learn how to describe a smell.

 

o          Learn to draw.

 

o          Listen to different sounds around you. Learn to listen to different intensity of sounds from the softest (e.g. your breathing) to the loudest (e.g. traffic).

 

o          Live in the moment. Practice mindfulness.

 

4.         Sfumato. Sfumato is “a willingness to embrace ambiguity, paradox, and uncertainty”. An essential characteristic of da Vinci’s genius is his ability to handle a sense of mystery. Here are two ways to apply Sfumato:

 

o          Befriend ambiguity. Find some situations in your past where you faced ambiguity (e.g. waiting to hear if your application for a job you wanted was successful). Describe how you felt.

 

o          Ask yourself questions that relate two opposites. For example, ask yourself how your happiest and saddest moments are related.

 

o          Practice the Socratic method. The goal with the Socratic method is to examine possibilities, and that is done by asking questions, not by giving answers. Socrates was known (and criticized) for asking questions to which he didn’t have answers.[2] The key to using the Socratic method is to be humble. Don’t assume that you or anyone knows anything for sure. Question every premise.

 

5.        

 

Arte/scienza. Arte/scienza is “the development of the balance between science and art, logic and imagination”. This is thinking with the “whole brain”. Mind mapping is a powerful method that can help you combine logic and imagination in your work and life. The end result of mapping should be a web-like structure of words and ideas that are somehow related in the writer’s mind.

 

6.        

 

Corporalità. Corporalità is “the cultivation of grace, ambidexterity, fitness, and poise”. Leonardo had amazing physical ability that complemented his genius in science and arts. Here are some ways to apply Corporalità:

 

o          Develop a program for physical fitness. Your program should include three things: flexibility exercises, strength training, and aerobic conditioning.

 

o          Develop body awareness. Study anatomy. Try yoga. Dance. Do some contact juggling. Whatever strengthens the connection between body and mind, go for it.

 

o          Cultivate ambidexterity. Leonardo could work with both his right and left hand and regularly switched between them. You can cultivate ambidexterity by using your nondominant hand for relatively simple tasks like brushing your teeth or eating your breakfast. Later you can use your nondominant hand for writing.

 

7.         Connessione. Connessione is “a recognition of and appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things and phenomena”. This, in other words, is systems thinking. One main source of Leonardo’s creativity is his ability to form new patterns through connections and combinations of different elements. Here are some ways to apply Connessione:

 

o          Find ways to link things that seem unrelated. For example, you can try to find connections between a bear and the World Wide Web, or geology and the Mona Lisa (real name “La Giaconda”).

 

o          Imagine dialogues. Imagine talking with a role model to gain new perspective and insight. Or you can imagine how some role models would discuss your problem.

 

o          Think about how things originate. Take an object and think about what elements are involved in its creation and how.

 

 

Unfortunately, the wrong Italian is held up as a role model-Maciavellian intrigue is practiced in every corner of American society, especially among many of the Patriot Movement who’d rather turn a potentially nation-saving cause into a joke of petty soap opera intrigue and treason.

 

 

 

 

WE NEED TO CULTIVATE A DA VINCI SOCIETY

 

 

That can only start with YOU.  What do YOU aspire to be? 

 

What do you hold up to be a virtue?

 

Intelligence?

 

Creativity?

 

Strength?

 

Righteousness?

 

Generosity?

 

Active in one’s community?

 

Greed?

 

Sloth?

 

Some corporate media invented image of coolness?

 

Minding your own business?

 

Going along with what celebrities and other “authorities” say?

 

Many a society have chosen the path of the Idiocracy instead of self-actualization. 

 

Most were conquered, or simply collapsed from within by the social rot.

 

Some were harnessed by evil men, turned into empires.

 

When empires are allowed to rule, only death, destruction and the further retardation of Man result.

 

The United States is an empire.  To us it is an Idiocracy that can go overseas and murder whoever it is acceptable to treat like niggers, and we can cheer the weapons paid for by our beyond-serfdom level of taxes on the evening news.  Hell we cheer when the US government’s tin badge gods do their own Shock and Awe on our own fellow citizens.

 

Our America was not inspired by Maciavelli and all his intrigue and power games.  Our America was inspired in great part by Leonardo Da Vinci.  One of history’s most self-actualized men, he sought to the best he can be, and it was that dream that propelled the masses of common people to this country, to be the best they could be-or knew how to be.  Certainly a revolution had to be fought, and that revolution was eventually hijacked by the sons of Maciavellil with the engineered political and economic crisis that led to the US Constitution… and the tyranny we now live under. 

 

The ideal of Our America remains.  You can never, ever, kill an ideal; especially the ideal of Freedom. 

 

The enemy can kill off however many people they can.  They cannot kill the desire to be Free.  Even in the most totalitarian regime, the darkest age that desire will lay dormant, gestate.  Its roots will penetrate the first crack it can and grow from there, spreading, growing. 

 

That ideal has been growing for countless generations, in the face of centurions, knights, barons, satraps, janissaries, barons, dukes, kings, khans, emperors.  It has weathered the worst the international bankers have thrown at it; the scientific dictatorship called Modern America… and yet it remains, still growing.  Even when the organizations of those that remember that dream, of Freedom, are penetrated, perverted, turned agains those that joined to fight for that Freedom-that dream still lives.

 

Freedom has grown up.  No amount of neurolinguistic programming, role models, authority figures, laws, weapons are going to stop it.  Those that have carefully crafted this society, this Hologram of Liberty to harness our energies and quietly enslave us to embark on a century of wars to found their “new world order” cannot destroy ideals.  On the contrary every person they seduce into debt creates someone who will repudiate their debt and cut off their chains of usury slavery.  Every person they imprison for some ridiculously trivial “code infraction” becomes an outlaw who will NOT obey ANY PART of their byzantine legal code.  Every person they murder creates a martyr-a blood debt-that they who think have conquered us will have to pay for.

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS

WHAT YOU DO MATTERS

Time is short. Agendas pushed by evil men are rapidly coming to fruition; each advance cuts shorter the time you have left to hang back and let others fight the problem. The economy implodes, martial law is being implemented more and more blatantly, the nations are maneuvered into war, new diseases are unleashed, the enviroment collapses under the poisons generated by century-old polluting technology. The luxury of you pawning off your Responsibility to fight evil however you can has long passed but we are in critical times.

Ask yourself this: what excuse will you try to tell God when you die and you just minded your own business? Just going about your personal business as our nation-having been undermined in every possible way for the past century-collapses from economic starvation, imperial overreach, and moral decomposition is not going to win you any points in Heaven. Far from it. If you’re one of those waiting for some televangelist-promised Rapture ask yourself, and be honest; you think God wants you to wait for a free ride to eternal life as millions starve, millions are murdered, and the whole sorry Human Race suffers under a multi-generational tyranny… and you do nothing but wait for some promised escape?

And don’t be in denial! Those that have set America up for the hardest fall in history are showing their faces now: stealing trillions of your tax dollars; putting the finishing touches on the most brutal, powerful police state in history. The rot in America is on the surface, and no amount of mortician’s wax and makeup can cover it up. Your loved ones, neighbors… or you… have been squeezed by a dollar that buys less than less, taxes on every act and every thing. Our grandparents were lured from the small townfarms, self-owned businesses and self-sufficiency to the cities. Became dependent on corporations for wage jobs that seemed to deliver more money than working a farm or small town general store but that was nothing more than luring them into the bridle of wage slavery. Like a horse; you bait it with their favorite treat and once you got the harness on your theirs. That slavery was bred into your parents, and then into us… but as stated the economic rug was pulled out from under us.

What we do matters. Because the fate of the Earth and the Human Race is precariously balanced upon what you do. What we do. Americans demonstrated this recently on 9/12: two million of us marched on OUR CAPITOL to make it plain to the beast we’ve finally drawn a line in the sand. No amount of lying corporate spin could hide the magnitude of the event, and what a powerful meeting of minds and will it was. Could not have happened soon enough, but we have to work with what we got. Are.

Yet, that “tea party” was but a demonstration; nearly 1 out of 100 Americans holding signs, shouting, listening to speakers does not by itself translate into meaningful social and political change. Demonstrations by themselves are not ACTION. ACTION is what is needed-ACTION that produces REAL LIFE RESULTS and not just some vague feeling of hope and well being as you trundle back to the couch, potato.

What can you do?

You can start with yourself. Have to anyway, you’ve been programmed by the beast to be lazy, apathetic and that programming is deep.

You need get in shape, cleanse your body of processed foods by eating organic, exercise, and develop a relationship with Our Father. Note I didn’t say develop a regular tithing schedule with your favorite televangelist. Ouly Our Father is in our hearts. Jesus instructed us to pray to Him in a quiet, isolated place, and to simply still the mind and will ourselves to listen to God. He will speak, and you really need to listen; not nearly enough people do, which looking on the surface of that statement doesn’t make sense as God’s omnipotent and good. Then of course, you remember how the culture, media, education and religion are in the hands of those that have compelled me to speak out against them and its no wonder people don’t know this.

Get your house in order: get out of debt, eliminate as best possible your dependence on the enemy; get out of debt, stop indulging in their addictions and I’m not just talking about drugs but their television, their music, their gambling and spurilous entertainments. Grow your own food, get a group of like-minded individuals together and prepare together.

Begin to make yourself as anonymous as you can. Move if you can to a place-it could be a rental you don’t register or you can swap houses with someone like minded, which would actually work better with families. Don’t update your information with anyone-not the government, not corporations, not even your bank. Use a rental box to receive mail, have all correspondence routed through that so that when you move to your anon home you can keep appearances up. You don’t have to make a display of resistance; living anonymously and quietly free is the best revenge against the beast.

Someday-can’t say when-that will not be enough. Get a rifle while you can, a military pattern semi-automatic, with spare magazines, ammunition, spare parts, and gear to hold the spare mags and ammo on you. Get a airsoft replica of your rifle and going to Appleseedinfo.org learn the basics of making the shot, carefully analyzing and correcting for errors made. Once you’ve mastered the basics, you can expand your training to tactics; get in a good shooting school-be warned that once you do register with a class the government will also know you’re taking this kind of training. Perhaps one in your group can “take one for the team” and register, then train the rest of your group. You will NOT survive being alone. Nobody does.

Yes, your group can do more than get together and survive. Once you’ve helped yourself(how can you help others if you need help-that’s an old saw for a reason)you can get involved with helping take this planet back from those bent on destroying it. Where to begin…

You can spread the truth: alternative news sites on the internet. Perhaps you can brainstorm, compare how you woke up and use that to adjust what you put out to get more people woke up.

Get together hundreds of like-minded individuals and pick a small town. Put up a full slate of candidates and find a reason to call for a recall election. This is a subject that deserves its own essay, so I wrote two of them.

Recall Election: Obstacles to Overcome
http://freedomguide.wordpress.com/2009/02/11/recall-election-obstacles-to-overcome/
It would be prudent if you got support, so do a test run of the takeover by taking over the small town church. You join, make a majority, and when the pastor and/or board step out of line find an excuse to fire them.

THE TRIPWIRE-FROM THE RESISTER

The Tripwire
by D. van Oort & J.F.A. Davidson
From The Resister
“How we burned in the prison camps later thinking: What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive?”
– Alexander Solzhenitzyn, Gulag Archipelago
What would be the tripwire resulting in open rebellion? Examining the Bill of Rights, and considering EXISTING laws only, and not failed attempts, you will find that every clause has been violated to one degree or another.
Documenting those violations would fill volumes, and it is important to remember that only government can violate the exercise of unalienable individual rights and claim immunity from retribution. We omit martial law or public suspension of the Constitution as a tripwire. The overnight installation of dictatorship obviously would qualify as “the tripwire,” but is not likely to occur. What has occurred, what is occurring, is the implementation of every aspect of such dictatorship without an overt declaration. The Constitution is being killed by attrition. The Communist Manifesto is being installed by accretion. Any suggestion that martial law is the tripwire leads us to the question: what aspect of martial law justifies the first shot?
For much the same reason, we will leave out mass executions of the Waco variety. For one thing, they are composite abuses of numerous individual rights. Yet, among those abuses, the real tripwire may exist. For another, those events are shrouded in a fog of obfuscation and outright lies. Any rebellion must be based on extremely hard and known facts. Similarly, no rebellion will succeed if its fundamental reasons for occurring are not explicitly identified. Those reasons cannot be explicitly identified if, in place of their identification, we simply point to a composite such as Waco and say, “See, that’s why; figure it out.” Any suggestion that more Wacos, in and of themselves, would be the tripwire, simply leads us back again to the question: what aspect of them justifies rebellion?
For the same reasons, we leave out a detailed account of Ayn Rand’s identification of the four essential characteristics of tyranny. She identified them quite correctly, but together they are just another composite from which we must choose precipitating causes. These characteristics are: one-party rule, executions without trial for political offenses, expropriation or nationalization of private property, and “above all,” censorship.
With regard to the first characteristic of tyranny, what is the real difference between the Fabian socialist Republican Party and the overtly [Bolshevik] socialist Democratic Party? Nothing but time. Regarding the second we have the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team and the ATF’s enforcement branch. In action they simply avoid the embarrassment of a trial. Regarding the third, we have asset forfeiture “laws,” the IRS, the EPA, the FCC, the FDA, the Federal Reserve, the Justice Department’s Antitrust Division, and a myriad of other executive branch agencies, departments, and commissions whose sole function is to regulate business and the economy. Regulating business for the common good (fascism) is no different in principle than outright nationalization (communism).
However, the fourth characteristic of tyranny, censorship, is the obvious primary tripwire. When ideology and the reporting of facts and how-to instructions are forbidden, there is nothing remaining but to fight. Freedom of speech and persuasion — the freedom to attempt to rationally convince willing listeners — is so fundamental an individual right that without it no other rights, not even the existence of rights, can be enforced, claimed, debated, or even queried.
Does this censorship include the regulation of the “public” airwaves by the FCC, as in the censorship which prohibits tobacco companies from advertising — in their own defense — on the same medium which is commanded by government decree to carry “public service” propaganda against them? Does it include federal compulsion of broadcasters to air politically-correct twaddle for “The Children”? Does it include the Orwellian “Communications Decency Act”? Does it include any irrationalism “sexual harassment” or tribalist “hate speech” laws which prohibit certain spoken words among co-workers? The answer: unequivocally yes.
Although the above do not pertain to ideological or political speech, yet they are censorship and are designed to intimidate people into the acceptance of de facto censorship. We say that any abrogation of free speech, and any form of censorship, which cannot be rectified by the soap box, the ballot box, or the jury box, must be rectified by the cartridge box — or lost forever.
Americans have been stumbling over tripwires justifying overt resistance for well over 130 years. On one hand, we submit that gun confiscation is a secondary tripwire only. It is second to censorship because if speech is illegal we cannot even discuss the repeal of gun control, or any other population controls. If only guns are illegal, we may still convince people to repeal those laws. On the other hand, gun confiscation may be a sufficient tripwire because the primary one, censorship, can be fully implemented only after the citizenry has been disarmed.
Resistance, in the context of this article, means those legitimate acts by individuals which compel government to restrict its activities and authority to those powers delegated to the Congress by the people in the Constitution.
The distinction to be drawn here is that the objective of patriotic resistance is to restore original Constitutional government, not change the form of government. To this end we believe:
The enforcement of any laws — local, state, or federal — that through the action or inaction of the courts makes nugatory the individual means of resisting tyranny, justifies resistance.
The operative terms of the above statement are the parameters that must be defined and understood if resistance to tyranny and despotism is to be honorable, and for the cause of individual liberty, rather than anarchy resulting from a new gang of tyrants. Rebellion can never be justified so long as objective means of redress are available, which are themselves not subverted or rendered impotent by further or parallel subjective legislation.
The goal of patriots throughout the country must be the restoration of objective constitutional law and order. The failure to enforce a subjective law (i.e. the Communications Decency Act) does not justify that law existing, but it also does not justify resistance. This is because non-enforcement leaves avenues of redress, including the forbidden activity itself, still available. Should a lower court uphold or ignore a case that challenges subjective law, peaceable means of redress are still open by higher or lateral courts in another jurisdiction.
However, should the U.S. Supreme Court uphold subjective laws, or refuse to hear the cases challenging them, then the legislative, executive, and judicial branches have all failed to guarantee individual liberty, from the widest principles to the smallest details. A single refusal by the highest court in the land to overturn a whim-based subjective law, or to refuse to hear the case, is sufficient to justify resistance to that law because there is simply nowhere left to turn for further attempts at redress. At such time nobody is morally bound by that law. Tyranny gets one chance per branch.
America is either a constitutional republic or it is not. If we can restore our republic it will ultimately occur through reason, and reason will then lead our representatives to make unconstitutional those laws which, by any objective standard of justice, should have never been considered in the first place. However, we cannot assert our claim to restore our liberty if we but accede to a single socialist construct. Freedom and serfdom cannot coexist. We cannot have it both ways.
Life, and the means to preserve it, cannot coexist with disarmament. Liberty, and its rational exercise, cannot coexist with subjective constraints. Property, and its acquisition, use, and disposal cannot coexist with expropriation. The federal government’s first task is to obey the Constitution. It has refused. Our first task as free men is to force the government to obey it again. The Constitution of the United States of America is a constraint on the federal government, not on the individual.
Likewise, the constitutions of the various states are constraints on the state governments, not on the individual. The Constitution contains many provisions allowing the violation of our natural rights as free men by immoral and unethical men in government. The true heroes of the ratification debates were the Antifederalists, who secured Federalist guarantees that the Bill of Rights would amend the Constitution.
To their undying credit, the Federalists lived up to their promise. Nevertheless, only after constitutional limitations on government have been restored in their original form can we consider amending the Constitution to redress its very few remaining defects (for example, the absence of a separation of state and the economy clause).
Laws that make nugatory the means of resisting tyranny and despotism determine the tripwire. The creeping legislative erosion of the 2nd Amendment is not the only tripwire that justifies resistance. We submit that any gun control is a secondary tripwire. Not only because it can be effortlessly evaded, but also because it strengthens our cause. It is second only to censorship. If speech is illegal we can discuss neither repeal of gun control, or the repeal of any other unconstitutional “law.” Censorship is not a tripwire, it is THE tripwire. Thus, by default, censorship morally justifies rebellion.
Under censorship, no other rights, including the right to be free from censorship, can be advocated, discussed, or queried. It is incorrect to say that after censorship comes utter subjugation. Censorship is utter subjugation. There is no greater usurpation of liberty while remaining alive. After censorship come the death camps, and they are not a prerequisite of censorship, they are merely a symptom of it. Censorship qua censorship is sufficient in itself to justify open rebellion against any government that legislates, enforces, or upholds it.
However, that is not the half of it. Censorship is alone in being the only violation of individual rights that does not require actual enforcement or challenges in court, before rebellion is justified. When the government forbids you to speak or write, or use your own or a supporter’s property to address willing listeners or readers, that government has openly and forcibly declared that the art of peaceful persuasion is dead and will not be tolerated. Upon that very instant, all peaceful avenues of redress have been closed and the only possible method of regaining that liberty is force. Whenever we give up that force, we are not only ruined, we deserve to be ruined.
Censorship is already being “legally” imposed through accretion by compromisers, appeasers, and pragmatists within government at all levels. Note the demands by “progressive” organizations and self-appointed “civil rights” groups to ban so-called “hate” speech (they mean thought and debate), or “extreme” language (they mean principled dissent), or “paramilitary” books (they mean the knowledge of how to resist). When our government imposes censorship, it will be because our ability to use force to resist censorship no longer exists. Buying copies of The Resister is not yet prohibited; buying machine guns already is. Unwarranted search for unlicensed books has not yet occurred; unwarranted search for unlicensed weapons has already begun. As your unalienable right of peaceable discussion and dissent is being daily abridged, your right to peaceably assemble and associate in advocacy of your own self-defense, according to your own free will, has already been outlawed (courtesy of ADL’s “model” anti-militia legislation).
Unconstitutional federal agencies now arm themselves with weapons that you may not own, and train in tactics that you are prohibited from mastering. Before a government is sure you won’t resist, it will make sure you can’t resist.
The most irrational, contradictory, short-range, whimsical notion possible to men who claim the unalienable right to resist tyrannical government is the notion that they must first let their ability to resist be stripped from them before they have the right to use it. This is the argument of so-called conservatives who pish-tosh the notion of legislative “slippery-slopes,” and sycophantic adherents of a supreme Court that has no constitutionally delegated authority to interpret the Constitution in the first place. We reject the notion of mindless compliance with subjective “laws.” Subjective laws must be resisted on metaphysical and epistemological principles, moral and ethical grounds, and on constitutional and historical precedence.
No rational man desires ends without means. No rational man can be faced with his own imminent subjugation and truly believe that, once things are as bad as they can get, “sometime” “someone” will do “something” “somehow” to counteract that trend. Any man who counsels another to appeal to those mystical equivalents of “divine intervention” for “deliverance” from tyranny is our enemy by all principles conceivable within the scope of rational human intelligence.
The time to organize resistance is not after censorship, but before it. The time to prepare resistance is when our ability to resist is being threatened. The time to begin resistance is when that threat has been upheld or ignored by the courts. The unalienable rights that safeguard our ability to resist are limited to those which, if not violated, allow us to plan and use all materials necessary for resistance. We submit that only the following meet that criteria:
* freedom of speech and of the press, and the right to peaceably assemble–so that we may advocate ideas, report and discuss news, and instruct others how to carry out resistance activities (1st Amendment);
* the right to keep and bear arms — so that we may have appropriate force in our hands should we need it, and be trained to use such force as necessary (2nd Amendment);
* the right to be let alone — so that we may be free of government intrusion in our lives, liberty, and property (3rd Amendment);
* the right to be secure in our persons, dwellings, papers, and property from unwarranted, unaffirmed searches and seizures — so that our records, ideological materials, and weapons will remain in our hands (4th Amendment).
For the purpose of this discussion, we believe that no other rights are relevant because if every individual right other than those four were violated — although it would be an unspeakably evil act on the part of the government, justifying immediate and unforgiving resistance — their abridgement would not effect our ability to resist. If any of the first four amendments are infringed by legislation, enforced by executive power, and their abrogation is upheld or ignored by the courts, unremitting, forcible resistance, and aid and comfort to its citizen-soldiers, is a moral imperative for every single person who believes that life, liberty, and property are unalienable and self-existing, and not grants of government privilege.

HAS THE CHURCH BECOME IRRELAVENT? PLUS DISCUSSION AT AWRM.ORG

HAS THE CHURCH BECOME IRRELEVANT?

By Chuck Baldwin
August 25, 2009
NewsWithViews.com

America’s Christian heritage is both rich and deep. What most historians and educators refuse to acknowledge, our forebears understood clearly: it was mostly Christians and churches that formed and shaped the new land that became known as the United States of America.

For example, when discussing the brave exploits of the passengers on board the Mayflower, people seem to have forgotten that the voyage was mostly the endeavor of a single church congregation. And don’t forget that it was Pastor Jonas Clark’s male congregants who withstood British troops at Lexington and fired the very first of the shots heard ’round the world. The famous French historian, Alexis De Tocqueville, credited the pulpits and churches of Colonial America with inspiring America’s successful War for Independence and subsequent prosperity much more than its institutions of learning, halls of Congress, or industries of invention. From the very beginning, America’s Christians and pastors were intricately involved in the establishment and building of this republic.

It is no hyperbole to say that without the influence, sacrifice, dedication, blood, sweat, and tears of America’s early Christians, this country would not exist.

But what do we see today? We see pastors and church congregations who are, for the most part, totally ignorant of their own heritage and history. They have little or no understanding of the principles of Natural Law–something America’s founders knew almost by second nature (no pun intended). They seem to know next to nothing of the Biblical principles of liberty and government. All they seem to be able to do is regurgitate some mindless interpretation of Romans 13–an interpretation that could have been written by King George III or even Adolf Hitler.

Read my column regarding Romans 13.

Ignoring the great examples and exhortations of both Testaments, today’s Christians seem to have lazily latched onto a modern-day “divine right of kings” philosophy, through which they have become the pathetic slaves of arrogant and pompous political wolves dressed (barely) in the sheepskins of legitimacy.

Where are America’s watchmen on the wall? Where are the great stories of courage and commitment demonstrated by America’s founders that once emanated from church pulpits? How is it that today’s Christians know more about sports celebrities than they do America’s heroes? How is it that these lying, conniving, con artists called politicians can sucker church members as easily as they do the un-churched? How is it that Christians do not seem to recognize the devilish doctrines of socialism, fascism, elitism, or globalism for what they are? How can they be so easily manipulated? How is it that these corrupt politicians–who vote to kill unborn babies, merge America into internationalist and global entities, strip Americans of their God-given natural right of self defense, promote homosexual marriage, or allow America to lose its identity, culture, and heritage through unbridled illegal immigration–remain in “good standing” with any number of supposed “Christian” churches?

Even though there are more churches in America than anywhere else in the world, the pastors and Christians of this country have, for the most part, become completely irrelevant to preserving “the blessings of liberty”–or even fundamental Biblical principles, for that matter.

Churches used to be respected as lighthouses in communities: places free from the jaundiced juxtaposition of political correctness and avarice. Today’s churches are filled with both. Where once churches stood as guardians of truth, they have now become progenitors of error. Where once preachers stood in the similitude of Elijah and John the Baptist, they now grovel in the image of Joel Osteen and Rick Warren. Sunday Schools were once bastions of Bible teaching; today they are glorified coffee shops and playgrounds. The modern Christian home cannot even disciple its own children: how can it then be expected to “make disciples of all nations”?

I repeat: the modern American church has, for the most part, become irrelevant.

It is little wonder that more and more people are losing interest in the organized church. Instead of finding Christian love and kindness, they find the same kind of gossip, slander, petty bickering, favoritism, and selfishness that they might find at any office water cooler. Instead of hearing a prophet of God declare the Word of God, they hear a milquetoast minister meekly musing the latest self-help book.

The complete irrelevance of today’s organized church in America to the preservation of Christian liberty and constitutional government is especially disconcerting to those of us who still have freedom’s fire burning in our souls. Where do we go for respite and instruction?

I tell you the truth: there are hundreds of thousands of patriotic, freedom-minded Christians all over America who have had it “up to here” with these spineless social clubs called churches! They are tired of petrified pastors groveling before corrupt politicians and businessmen. They hunger for truth, and they are not finding it in most organized churches.

As an example, go to my list of people who have written me to let me know that they are desperately seeking a Black Regiment-type church that they can attend. The list grows by the day. See the list here.

These people are not looking to be entertained or pampered. They do not care about social standing or making “business contacts.” They don’t care which church has the “most exciting” youth program, or how many softball teams it has. They want a church where the pastor isn’t afraid to speak truth to power and take a stand for liberty. And, unfortunately, such churches are getting harder and harder to find.

In fact, I submit that the true church is not “emerging”; it is “submerging.” As in totalitarian regimes all over the world, where there are basically two types of churches: the organized State-approved church, where people who worship the State go to put on a religious show; and the underground church, where real Christians go to worship God with honest, likeminded believers.

The “underground” church in America is not totally underground–yet. But the schism is taking place rapidly. Unlike the houses of State Worship, which enjoy large congregations and ornate buildings, underground churches are, for the most part, small and unassuming. Home churches are also mushrooming and must be considered part of the underground church movement. And, of course, Black Regiment churches are springing up all across the country. See the list of Black Regiment churches here.

I am convinced that it is through these independent, unaffiliated, unorganized, or underground churches that relevancy will return. It is in these churches where Christians can be taught the Biblical principles of Natural Law, where children who are disciplined and know how to behave are not considered oddities, where pastors aren’t afraid to proclaim truth, where people are still committed to constitutional government–and understand the difference between a democracy and a republic–and where self-serving neocons are not regarded as heroes.

So, if you are a Christian and you want to be relevant to the preservation of liberty in this country, you need to get out of these establishment, State-worshipping churches and find yourself an “underground,” unaffiliated, or Black Regiment church. And you need to do it quickly!

You have to realize that the difference is Tax code 501.C. To keep the church in the tall cotton they enjoy they swear not to be politically involved. If they do, or even seem to, the Tax free status drops and the Tax man cometh.
We need churches that have revised their operating plan and turned in their 501.c, and survived the onslaught. Churches with pastors, Rabi’s, Omans, and priests who care more for their parishioners than their income.

Lets try and get things in perspective.
The 501(C)3 issue is a symptom, not a cause.

The real issue is that even “church people” no longer have a fear of the Lord.

If they did, the churches would be out winning people to Christ, not selling raffle tickets and washing cars. If God’s people had a genuine fear of the Lord, they wouldn’t fear what the government could do, but would fear what God will do if they back away from His Word.

And that is where most churches stand today in America. They fear what man can do, and God will bring judgment on them, as well as this country as a whole.

I don’t begrudge churches that engage in commercial activities of any sort, including raffles or car washes because those are social activities which help to solidify the identity of the congregation.

Personally, I could see congregations opening and running outright businesses. It never seemed all that wrong when the old European monasteries did it. Heck, my favorite German beer came from a monastery. How many American churches would have half the congregation choking on their muffins if the pastor tabled the idea of opening a church sponsored brewery to be staffed by single out of work young men who would be living on site. Instead of preaching for donations all the time, a bunch of church activities would be paid for by the brewery.

How about a church run academy that takes in homeless and poor youth, or heck wealthier youth too, and has them work during the day at a number of tasks, some of which are profitable, and then evenings or every other day or so, they learn fighting skills. The academy sends graduates out from time to time to bring enemies of the church or congregation to justice, and yes, when those who are the beneficiaries of that justice see that it is done, the academy collects the reward. That’s your basic Shaolin Monastary, a pattern which was also copied by the Christians of the middle ages prior to the great church Schisms.

I have recently been studying the Orthodox church, and due to their years of living under oppressive rule, they figured out all sorts of ways to just not lose the core of their faith to government dictates, although history tells us that some were just plain screwy sellouts (like those who joined with the Ottoman Turks in the invasion of central Europe). Then you got those genocidal Serbs hunting down descendants of those who sold out to the Turks.. They do have this concept of communion with the saints, basically a sort of identification with church members whether they are alive or dead. That whole concept of memory and record-keeping is phenomenal.

As for taxing or not taxing pastors. Who says they would or would not get a salary? A lot of the leaders of modern American Christianity pay personal income taxes as authors of books based on the book sales (with all appropriate deductions of course), but the money you throw in the basket at a church should always have about the same likelihood of being taxed as the money you stuff in the panties of some single mom working as an exotic dancer regardless of what the laws say.

Donate cash, don’t ask too many questions. If it looks and sounds like they are doing supports the Lord’s purpose, let Him handle the payback. I mean, so what if a preacher or pastor drops his 501.C status, or never applies for it in the first place and you hand him a few hundred bucks to take along his trip to feed orphans in outer Mongolia? Someone gonna snitch? What does God do to snitches? Someone gonna be a real tax collector prick?

Lets see it has been 2000 years and while Jews claim that Jesus was not that special, it is not exactly a proud moment to name a newborn “Judas” any more. In fact, I think there are more Jews in the world today with names like Matthew, Mark, Luke, John or Paul then “Judas”. I mean, naming a kid “Judas” up to that time was usually in honor of Judas Maccabeus, roughly the equivalent to naming a kid after George Washington, or maybe blacks naming their kid Malcolm. Now, what would anyone of any faith with any common sense NOT name their kid? I mean, you find the most ignorant backwoods hick anywhere, and suggest naming a newborn “Judas”, and someone is likely to just backhand whoever comes up with the idea. Find the worst third generation welfare collecting crack smoking ghetto rats and say, hey, lets name the kid “Judas Jones”..NOT going to happen. You look at the poor saps on facebook who have “Judas” somewhere in their name. Poor Schmucks probably wish they were just named Samuel or Joshua or something like that. Then you want to see really screwed up looking people search facebook for people who have “Iscariot” somewhere in their name. And people think religion is dead…

Oh how about “Pontious”, yeah that’s a popular Italian name – NOT.

How about another well known law enforcer of ancient times. Yeah, name a kid “Herod”. Suuure, we got “Herod Jones”, oh, and “Herod Spinweinowitcz”, well not exactly. A quick check on facebook shows a bunch of people with a last name of Herod, but that’s a last name they got stuck with somewhere, probably put on them when their ancestors hit Ellis Island and did not know the meaning of the name, and others got it stuck on them when their ancestors were freed from slavery in the 1800s (they are either white, black or mixed white/black).

Frank Zappa, no matter how much LSD he is on when his next kid is born is going to say to himself “hmm, I want to give my kid a real memorable controversial name so he will be famous – Herod Zappa… Then send him to Catholic school just so he can get slapped around by nuns every day…

Christianity is not dead by a long shot.

Y’know, the same principles needed to take over a small town through a recall election could work on a church. Why not? You got a Pastor, some Board to administer, Deacons, Church Lady, etc.

If you want to take over a small town one good step would be to take over one of its churches. Flood the membership with Patriots and their families, until you reach a solid majority. If the Pastor isn’t on board-call for a new pastor. If the Board isn’t on board… alright pun but anyway, if the Board won’t play ball-fire em. Deacons and Church Ladies can be swept aside once administrave control of the church is realized. Best not to try it with the rich local church where all the Masons go once a week to play the part that they’re respectable public servants and local businessmen.

THEN Breacher’s ideals come into play-and why didn’t I think of them?! Plus your Church can be used to springboard into town politics. Church-run businesses could help save a local economy and restart a dead one. Kids in gangs could be Kid in gangs that help the church out with its businesses, enforce justice, etc.

To quote Breacher:

The problem will come from opposition from all the so called “quality people” so that’s when you start a Recall Election. Ought to be doing that anyway.

Fair warning: I’m putting this thread up on my blogs.

TRUTH MOVEMENT HIJACKED? THE MILITIAS CERTAINLY ARE….

TRUTH MOVEMENT HIJACKED? THE MILITIAS CERTAINLY ARE…
This is an alert from B.A. Brooks the founder of United American Freedom Fighters uaff.org and everyone must read this NOW.

Do NOT join a militia or seek out a group, they are ALL INFILTRATED by the enemy!

Those that aren’t are deep, deep underground so you will not find them.

You need militia knowledge? While the internet’s still available GO TO YOUR PUBLIC LIBRARY and use their computers to download from www.awrm.org and use keywords on sites like www.scribd.com and the torrents.

You want training? Learn to shoot on your own. Download from www.appleseedinfo.org or reference my blog for the Rifleman post. Get an quality airsoft replica of your rifle and IN YOUR HOME practice all the tactical stuff you will need, plus make half inch wide targets and shoot in your hallway.

Certainly get in shape; walk, jog, run, lift.

Network quietly. Sniff people out. Make survival circles and if you’ve got quality people… are you a quality person… if you’ve got quality people and you’ve trained and prepared-there’s your militia. Not some 20 star jackass or some fed operative looking to profile and target as many Americans who would resist as possible for The Day. The Day is coming…

Is the Truth Movement Hijacked? That would be the govt. number one priority, get your deep cover operatives in to steer the movement into a brick wall… how many brick walls have organizations with patriotic Americans run into? Too many. How much pissy infighting? Too much.

I myself never joined a militia group. I knew they’d all be hijacked or founded by traitors. Be warned.

TRUTH MOVEMENT HIJACKED

UAFF NEWS

By: B.A. Brooks

08/17/2009

When I first got active in the patriot movement, one of my goals was to unite all militia units within The United States under some kind of allegiance with a main purpose of communication and unity. What I learned was that most militias operating in America are using the patriot movement to further their own personal agendas which range from many extreme and radical theologies. Some are pure racists while others are religious radicals, and then you have the radical religious racists. There are only a handful of actual militias operating today and I have found the rest to be just a bunch of guys with guns who wear camo. I would also be inclined to say that 99% of American militias have been infiltrated by FBI agents and or informants, if not actually being started and run by the FBI.

I have also learned that many individuals within the patriot movement are really informants/narcs and this is why I have now isolated myself from most people and organizations. It is not that hard to point out these individuals if you just sit back and watch what people are doing. Who is always starting trouble within the movement? Who is always pointing fingers and blame at others within the movement when in reality they should be focusing on the true political problems we are all facing? Who is always trying to create infighting within the movement? Who among you is trying to insight violence? When you start looking and listening, you will see clearly who these people are. I have found out in life that the person that is constantly telling you they are your best friend and will always have your back, is the first person to put a knife in your back. I do not talk about others in the movement but will tell you that a few of these individuals are highly revered by many and when they are exposed, most will be totally caught off guard and shocked. Many of you reading this article right now have unknowingly befriended FBI/CIA/ATF Agents, undercover law enforcement, informants and narcs. This is the main reason why I have disassociated my self with The American Resistance Movement, while also isolating myself from most others within the so called patriot or truth movements.

Many of these people are the real deal
http://www.uaff.info/militia_videos.htm

but with that said, most have been seriously infiltrated or are actual federal agents. Learning the truth about all of these things has been very hard for me to accept because I have been such a huge supporter of A.R.M. and other organizations over the past several years that I must now walk away from. It was a good idea but it is over now and I urge you all to move in new directions. You can only really trust yourself, close friends and family in these Orwellian times.

I have always said that knowledge is power and that you should share your power. What do you think I meant when I said this? I meant to learn about the truth and share what you learn. Not to share your personal information with others which they can use against you in the future. When it comes to your past and personal background, it is always best to keep these things private, especially if you have had any kind of felony arrest in your past. When you share knowledge about your personal background, you are giving away your power and making yourself vulnerable and a possible target of law enforcement. Keep your private information private. Never reveal too much about yourself or your family and friends. Loose lips sink ships! Remember that you never really know who you are talking to on the internet. Even if you have progressed into phone conversations and even meet-ups, you still never know what is motivating another. Some informants do it for the added excitement that it gives to their lives, while others do it because they have been caught up in a felony arrest and have chosen to turn in others in order to save their own skin.

I have removed the forums and chat rooms from within my website because I will not stand by while some people with a low mentality end up representing everyone. Some call these people shills or trolls, and all you have to do is read the comments at most patriot sites to get a good idea of this mean, childish and hateful speech. Myself, Alex Jones and a few others within the movement have been the focus of much talk over the past several months on message boards and comment forums, in an effort to discredit our work. Mostly verbal attacks using fabricated lies and cointelpro tactics in a clear attempt to confuse issues and destroy reputations. My own mission is the same as it always has been, and that is to expose the truth within a world of lies. To stop the new world order and their agendas dead in their tracks and I will continue to report what I find, continue to write articles while working on my newest full length movie. I have added a few links under this article that will demonstrate a little of what I speak of today. Watch your backs people!

Posted By: J
Date: Friday, 7-Aug-2009 14:41:03 Stratiotes is a moderator over at www.awrm.org an Appleseed Instructor, Patriot.

He’s fought off a legal attack on the rifle range he uses to revive marksmanship but he is under renewed assault after FBI attempted to penetrate an Appleseed shoot to entrap him-they weren’t successful. So the bastards are trying to use the same tactic they did in 2002; the berm he uses as a backstop to his range-they’re making a huge court case out of it to bankrupt him, and take his farm away. Everything he’s worked for.

Are we going to by typical ‘murikans or do we do the right thing and rally ’round a Patriot. That wasn’t even a rhetorical question-it shouldn’t even be a question!

Article and link below:

AWRM is under attack. And they’re attacking us through one of the administrators, James Faire. That’s right. Our very own STRATIOTES.

We’re limited in what we can say about this case, because of the pending litigation. So we’ll tell you what we can, and let you fill in the blanks.

It started with Homeland Security running surveillance on James’ farm. The FBI wired up confidential informants and sent them in to the Appleseed Shoots he was running.

They could find no criminal activity. So they had to try something else.

They started with a smear campaign. The newspaper and television station reported that James had been seen with “criminals.” James holds unpopular political opinions (unpopular with that newspaper and television station, at least.) He has an unpopular hobby (firearms training and instruction). And, of course, all guns and gun owners are bad.

There was a complaint about the noise. The Snohomish County Sheriff Department, who had known about the range for years (some of the deputies even used that range), investigated. They found no violation. That should have been the end of it. It wasn’t.

James Faire soon received notice that the berm that was on the property to allow for safe shooting, was in violation of several ordinances under the Shoreline Management Act. Huge penalties would apply if he did not immediately act. Penalties so huge that, in a short time, they will exceed the total value of the property. They will bankrupt and destroy him.

There are several reasons the property is not in violation. Grandfather clauses, the amount of dirt moved, all of these had been dealt with in 2002. But this isn’t about land-use violations, or shooting. It’s about punishing James Faire for his political activities.

They’re not even being particularly original about it. They’re using the same “code violation” they used against against him back in 2002. (That was about the same time government agents went after Ron Herzog and Charlie Puckett. Funny how that works, isn’t it?)

He won that case back in 2002. But now they’re trying the same thing again, with renewed vigor. Attorney bills are mounting, and fast. Even if he wins in court again, James could lose his farm and everything he has worked for.

Oh, Strat will fight on, even if he loses everything. It just isn’t in him to surrender. Everyone who knows James, knows that.

They are determined to ruin Strat. And then they’ll come after the rest of us. Because if they can get Strat, they can get the rest of us.

WE CAN’T LET THAT HAPPEN.

WE NEED TO SHOW THE GOVERNMENT, RIGHT NOW, THAT THEY CAN’T GET AWAY WITH THIS.

Folks, I hate asking people for money. To me, it’s the hardest thing about being a political activist. I’m not good at it. I’d rather go door-to-door handing out flyers any day. And I’m aware this isn’t the best time to do it; an awful lot of people are out of work, or working fewer hours. But right now, James Faire needs money.

You wouldn’t hesitate to stand with your rifle in defense of a fellow Patriot. Well, I’m not asking you to do that. I’m asking you to stand with your checkbook. Because, sometimes, a dollar is just as effective as a bullet.

So let’s make a stand, right here, right now. The folks at Lexington and Concord weren’t shy about defending their property. And we shouldn’t be, either. Click here to donate to James Faire’s legal defense fund.
