[Edit: False] Video of US teens taunting Native American draws fire

I didn't say anything about rolling back to the AoC. Just the opposite. "Leave the dead and useless things behind ..." (note the use of the plural).



A substantial portion of the population is inert ballast that would go along with pretty much anything with little more than some loud grousing (if that).

As for the remainder, I offer no opinion except to say that prospects for genuine liberty on a national scope range from none to nil.

Neither republicanism nor democracy nor any mixture of the two can hope to function sanely (if at all) on the scale of a third of a billion people.

Better our eggs be spread over several baskets than one. Break it up and break it down - as far as it will go.

My prescription for "Nullification. Interposition. Secession." addresses what I think is necessary. The issue of probabilities is a separate matter.

I concur on the skepticism of national aspirations. Local local local.

The Constitution's original efficacy and design was intentionally rendered null by malevolent men.

This is incorrect. The Constitution's "original efficacy and design was intentionally" to concentrate more power in the hands of fewer people.

That purpose has not been "rendered null by malevolent men". On the contrary, it has been exploited by them.

Question: From the perspective of human liberty, what did the Constitution "fix" that was "broken" in the Articles of Confederation?

I don't agree, but the supporters of a federal government were concerned about keeping us safe.

If government is the solution how do drugs get into prisons? If they cannot control an isolated environment they specifically set out to control at the maximum level how can they have better success outside?

I was referring to the Federalist Papers. It's been a long time since I read them but I remember the vague threats of invasion both internal and external being a common thread .

Another common thread concerned the supposed deficiencies of the Articles with regard to the confederal government's powers of taxation (and thus also, the supposed deficiencies of the Articles with regard to the confederal government's ability to spend lots of money). Alexander Hamilton alone wrote seven of the papers on the subject of the woeful limitations of confederal taxation.

The purpose of the Constitution was not to serve as an expedient to rescue us from the inconveniences and embarrassments naturally resulting from defective supplies of liberty - it was, rather, an "expedient to rescue us from the inconveniences and embarrassments naturally resulting from defective supplies of the public treasury" (Publius née Hamilton, Federalist No. 30).

Relative to the Articles of Confederation, the Constitution embodied not even a small expansion of human liberty, but quite the opposite; it was a massive expansion of government power. And we've been dealing with the fateful consequences of that big step backward ever since ...

Agree 100%. I just remember being sad when I read them. But the whole country has a long sad history of selling out liberty. Even before the states. Every time a new colony formed with libertarian leanings, it was only a matter of time until someone moved in and was allowed to start running things.

The expansion of the power of the Federal government enshrined by the Constitution will never be diminished unless enough people adopt the principles of liberty. That is why from my point of view focusing on campaigns and votes is poor strategy - I've always believed that Ron's campaigns were about education and not *actually* winning, for that reason; and it is why I've always favored the most pure candidates/public figures/etc.

Any time liberty flourished, it was because a small minority seized their freedom, while telling the rest of idiot humanity to get fucked.

So no matter how you slice it, freedom will never be found in ballot box.

I think we can both agree on that.

Freedom will never be achieved through politics. Never. Real freedom comes from uttering 4 simple words and having the intestinal fortitude to make them stick. Those words are: "We will not comply."

I disagree. So long as there is a government, you will end up in a box//cage when you do not comply. Not complying and exercising your rights is always good when somebody else does it. These days even if you are legally correct while not complying you still end up convicted and broke with lost job and..... because of xyz.

I on the contrary believe that all it would take is 1000 charismatic diplomatic people of principle elected to the senate, house, and the oval office. A campaign of intellects could sway the masses. All we would need is to take over and have a majority. I would think it would be easier to get less than a thousand people elected that share our concern than fight on the streets. If people can swallow HRC and DJT and ???? they could be swayed to support reason. I guess it would take brilliant people to make this work. There are many issues that would make people want government. Any person that collects SS or any entitlement will not want those abruptly taken away. Even people with jobs are not certain of their sustainability. Most every job as we know it today will not be needed one day in the future. How do people survive without income? The day of having a few acres and house where people can hunt, garden and survive are all but gone. All people in the cities without ability to sustain themselves are dependent on someone else be it employer or government handout. Either the government collapses and everything stops or it has to change. Guaranteed it will change. Will it change for the better or worse? The elected officials we have act worse than 2 or 3 year old spoiled brats that don't have any integrity. Complete collapse will not work even for those prepared. The masses will just find your store of goods and waste it. All you have done is gather nuts for the other squirrels.

There were seeds planted with a eye on further centralization and govt expansion, in regard to the raising of a continental army as well as monetary/tax base for such pursuits. But we would be in a far better place if the black robes did not remove the fail safes in the document.

One of the few journalists who understands what's coming.

I know it’s hard. It goes against everything you’ve been taught to believe to acknowledge that that a significant and influential group of other Americans – not that they identify that way – want you dead or enslaved. But they do. The Fredocons will scoff, but the conservaquisling collaborators’ actions speak louder than their weasel words – they’re currying favor with the enemy, betting that their abject groveling and supine submission will mean that they get the chop last.

You better get your head in the game or you’ll find your head in a guillotine – definitely figuratively, maybe literally.

You want to reject this reality, to dismiss it, to wave it off as crazy talk. But listen to what they say. Watch what they do. Have the strength to accept the harsh truth that is punching you in the face.

They hate you for not submitting, for being an obstacle to their rule.

The problem is that you are nice, and you project your niceness. Projection is human nature. So while leftist spittle-spewing sociopaths project their own shriveled morality when they shriek about how we’re all racist fascists of fascist racism when racist fascism is actually their jam, we Normals tend to project our decency when we assume that our opponents are just confused friends who are in the throes of a grievous misunderstanding about us that we can remedy with facts and evidence.

That’s 100 percent wrong. Facts and evidence don’t matter because the trial is already over and you’ve already been condemned because of who you are. You can’t ever clear yourself with the left because they don’t hate you for what you did or will do, but for who you are. That’s where the babble about “white privilege” comes from – if you’re white and conservative you’re wrong, and if you’re not white and conservative, you’re even…wronger.


It’s not about race or gender or orientation, but about power – they want to take yours, to strip you of your sovereignty and make you kneel. Their SJW posturing is all a lie and a scam. They don’t care about ending racism, sexism, homophobia, or any of the myriad other -isms and -phobias they blather about. Those poses are just weapons to be used to capture what they really want – total power over you. They seek to shame you into submission, and if that won’t work, then they’ll do whatever it takes.

The streets are going to run with blood. But I have a sneaking suspicion that they don't have the internal courage to play for actual blood, as in their own. That I'm almost certain of. They like playing the numbers game with no actual repercussions for their wicked actions.

No Matt. Tell me what YOU REALLY THINK! Vetoing the god-given right to clean water, electricity and internet service? That sounds so diabolical and inhumane! How do you expect the leftists to watch Netflix?

https://www.americanpartisan.org/2019/01/covington-gives-a-glimpse-of-civil-war-two/

But the Democrat party’s Dunning-Kruger plus Cloward-Piven strategy to turn every state into another Calizuela with uncontrolled FACLI immigration has at least one major obstacle in its path: conservatives have made a close study of Leftist revolutionary strategies from Robespierre and Lenin to Alinsky and Obama. The Right’s deep understanding of this process is the reason why so many millions of firearms and billions of rounds of ammunition have been purchased in recent years. Millions of precision rifles dispersed in the hands of scores of millions of heritage Americans will be a game-changer, delaying or blocking the usual pattern of Leftist revolutionary genocide. At some as-yet unknown breaking point, the Left’s unstoppable DemSoc political wave will collide with the immovable object of armed Right-wing resistance.

Nobody can say when or where the precise Fort Sumter moment will occur, but when it comes, a bloody civil war will follow. However, unlike the 1861-65 festivities, there will be no convenient regional divide between the warring camps. Instead, the red-blue county-level election maps will be a more useful blueprint for the coming mayhem, and even then, counties will often be too broad of a measure. I would suggest readers might review my earlier essay The CW2 Cube: Mapping the Meta-Terrain of Civil War Two, as well as When the Music Stops, How America’s Cities May Explode in Violence, for an in-depth look at how a dirty civil war may unfold and manifest itself.

In short, Civil War Two will quickly become an urban versus rural conflict divided along demographic and cultural lines. This type of dirty civil war will be fought at the zip code and neighborhood level. Front lines will be vague and constantly shifting, with three or more local factions often competing for supremacy. It will be a civil war of secret arrests, disappearances, IEDs and targeted assassinations that will have many of the worst attributes of Argentina and Northern Ireland in the 1970s, or even Rwanda and former Yugoslavia in the 1990s.

And once this vicious civil war is in full swing, the odds are high that the power grid itself will become the target of ten thousand attacks. In such a fluid crazy-quilt battlespace as an all-out dirty civil war, shared infrastructure lines will run through both friendly and enemy territory. Every faction will have a veto on their downstream enemy’s power grid and water supply. Food supplies that today are trucked from hundreds or thousands of miles away will disappear in this dangerous environment. Brainwashed Dunning-Kruger Democrats and their FACLI reinforcements might not enjoy living around evil and oppressive white devils very much today, but they are going to enjoy life without electricity, food, and clean drinking water even less. They will discover that it’s much easier to turn Minneapolis into Mogadishu than the reverse.

What will happen inside the blue hives that are presently organized as DemSoc vote-harvesting plantations, when the EBT system collapses? When no electricity, food or water is flowing in to sustain their populations? This dystopian dynamic is likely to occur in some cities or regions earlier than in others, and this will lead to the imposition of extremely harsh measures, including martial law and food rationing in other parts of the country. Alternatively, where government control is weak, local vigilantism will become rampant.

But history is clear: no matter how draconian the emergency decrees, new laws will not by themselves restore the power grid, or purify and pump the water, or get the food supply chain moving again. That will require the end of the civil war and a return to civility and the normal rule of law. Civil War Two will be brutal in every corner of America, but it will be absolutely catastrophic for the inhabitants of the blue hives when their sustenance is cut off. The Dunning-Kruger Democrats and the FACLI immigrants will not be able to eat socialist slogans or drink officially-sanctioned racial hatred.

The mainstream Right is finally beginning to understand the Calizuelification process that is now underway across America, and that the process is designed to have no readily apparent stopping point, braking mechanism or antidote. During every stage, the process of imposing tyranny by stealth is cloaked with a veneer of bogus legality. But thanks to the vision and wisdom of our founding fathers, our liberty has two clear and unbreakable lines of defense: the First and Second Amendments.

The ghosts of the Southern tacticians shall rise again!

The other side in the dirty civil war will largely be composed of self-sufficient and liberty-oriented students of history, springing from a long and storied line that produced the most successful modernizers and civilizers the world has ever seen—as well as its most effective warriors and generals. Many of them have served in America’s recent overseas wars, often in special operations units.
