Is It Time For Civil Disobedience?

It's well past time. But as long as people keep clinging to the idea that politics is the be-all and end-all of social change, other methods like agorism and civil disobedience will take a backstage. Politics has a place, of course, but I hate to see these other crucial prongs in the attack plan neglected.

It is never too late for civil disobedience. Have you heard of the velvet revolution? If the Czech's can overthrow the Communist Regime there, without shooting a shot, why can't we do the same here?

If the Czech's can mobilize 500,000 to a million in peaceful civil disobedience, why can't us Americans with a history of non-cooperation and rebellion get 10 million?

Because the Czech's just wanted to get rid of communism and upgrade to "democracy". Nearly every Czech citizen agreed on this. On the other hand, some Americans WANT to downgrade to more socialism, some are happy with fascism, some want smaller government and others want no government at all.

If we anarcho-capitalists say stopped obeying and got arrested in droves, most Americans would say "they're selfish and not paying their fare share. They deserve to be in jail."

That's why government doesn't have to lift a finger to control us. We do that just fine ourselves.

I do believe, however, that tactical CD is effective, and if we all dropped the idea of voting as a solution to change and focused on CD, some small things at least may change for the better.

I wish there were that many on our side. I'm highly skeptical.

where do you live? In rural area or in a city? Rural U.S. knows the tyranny of the Feds like the colonists over resources, water, etc. I think you would be surprised that there in reality is brewing a showdown rural vs. urban in the land.

I don't know but I have a quote I wanted to use that is perfect for this.



If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed.

If you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly.

You may come to a moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you

and only a precarious chance of survival.

There may even be a worst case.

You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory because it is better to perish

than to live as slaves. ~Winston Churchill

Yes it is well past time and here's why. I fear after this election we will witness first hand the government murdering the citizenry.

We are not in politics as usual, that is the rub. Most people either through denial or ignorance cannot grasp that we have been overthrown and the new czar is getting things ready to make sure there will be no one left to oppose their plans.

The countdown clock and the last chance for “The Founder’s Legacy” of patriotic Americans willing to lay it all on the line for a new Republic, has hit 0:00. Rebellion is no longer an option, a late night “what if” discussion around a bottle of good wine and snacks.

It is now the mandated response of oath keeping citizens and Constitutional defending men and women who have heard Paul Revere in 2010. That “watchman,” who made the most famous call to prepare for rebellion in the history of the world, has come again, through all of us who have been riding across our land for several years and warned of the arrival of this most critical moment.

It did not materialize lightly or without a desperate realization that it was on the way, and when it did appear at the horizon, life has not and will not ever be the same. Whether you accept this assessment or not, you will be involved in its reality, prepared or not, on board with the need to reclaim this country for freedom’s sake or not, courageous enough to muster with the band of the free and brave or not, you WILL still be counted among those who stood and fought with your countrymen, or posterity will judge you as cowards unworthy to live free.

In a nutshell, that is why we are where we are right now. We have been worn slick by flim flam men and women of the worst kind. Good is evil and evil is good. The “looking glass world” of Alice and the rabbit has taken us straight to the Queen of Hearts and he is the President and his evil court.

When precious friends and long contributing watchmen like Steve Quayle, Hawk Talon, Chuck Baldwin, and other warriors in the trenches pull up the tent and trek to the mountains, “then look up, for your redemption draweth nigh.” God speed and protect these wise men and their families.

I pray the same for you and your families.

you old farts are as bad as the chicken hawk neocons. We've got plenty of potential doing this the legal way.

Since when do young men solve problems? I can still remember back when I was young and I wasn't worth shooting. Now that I'm old I'm worth shooting, but just barely. When there is a young man in this world worth shooting, please, let me know.
