Obama just signed an executive order allowing the various agencies of the government complete access to any aspect of the internet without a search warrant. It also allows the sharing of the info gathered with any agency of the government without permissions or warrants.

Well said RoyseCityRed. The Federal Government is systematically and incrementally taking away our freedoms. I don't think most American's will wake up in time to do something about it. Too many people now are dependent on government. Self-sufficiently is one antidote for this disease.

Excellent post!!!!

I think Texas is working on legislation to circumvent any changes to the 2nd Ammendment - of course, we have some nutjobs in Austin who tout the Socialists line that serfs shouldn't own guns, but by and large, heavily conservative and pro 2nd ammendment here. And pro-conservative too, I might add (suites me just fine).

Read more abut that here: http://www.foxnews.com/p...ock-federal-gun-control/

Btw - DO notice we don' have too many crazy shootings here in Texas that succeed.. Not that they ain' tried, but they just don't get far and in about 98% of the cases the perp is in a bag at the end of the day. Last one was stopped by a CCW and a police officer just two weeks after Conn- media didnt cover that, no sir...Lots of folks around here are all CCW, so it's just not even smart to mess with folks, not to mention the castle laws.

Remember that Obasturds weatherman guru clearly stated they thought twenty five millon Americans would probably have to be killed because they felt that was the number that would fight any to the end over the destruction of the Constitution and our freedoms. I think they've misjudged, and badly.

Perry doesn't run this state .. He's just a cheerleader here And face it, what he's selling isn't a carpetbagger's dream, it's for real - Business DOES do well here. I haven't had to look for a job in 17 years - same place (God help me). Hopefully, by the time I do, I'll be retirement age or just retire. And in that tenure, I've been able to put aside for when Social Sec. screws me because i wasn't taxed to death at the state level here.

Believe you me, this place has more dyed in the wool, stoic conservatives than in many places in the US. Only around Austin, Houston, and the universities do you find the kool-aidists...

I also offer you that those companies that are moving here hire HERE, and they are fresh outa being taxed down to the hairs on their privates, they'll be pretty damn pleased with;

• no required unions
  
• no state income tax
  
• no personal prop tax on cars, boats, rv's, tractors, etc...
  

I will grant you that Dallas is wazzed, but it's goverend by the liberal I-want-everything-free faction, and as a result, Dallas has more empty office and convention space than the whole state combined - Point -> People got other options and simply move outa the city limits, but they don't have to move to another state.

I ain' orignally from texas - I'm from the Mtns. of Virginia, but I have never lived in a state I like more than this one. And over the course of my career, I've been
a number of duty calls from 1 to 20+ years.

Very interesting... If They Come for Your Guns, Do You Have a Responsibility to Fight?

This man has put down on paper what many people are thinking but are too cautious to express openly. I hope it never comes to what he is advocating but I can certainly see where the possibility exists. God help us all if it ever does happen.

Subject: If They Come for Your Guns, Do You Have a Responsibility to Fight?
Posted on January 3, 2013 by Dean Garrison
I feel a tremendous responsibility to write this article though I am a little apprehensive. Thinking about the possibility of rising up against our own government is a frightening thing for many of us. I am not Johnny Rambo & I will be the first to admit that I do not want to die. The reason I feel compelled to write this, however, is simply because I don't think the average American is equipped with the facts. I feel that a lot of American citizens feel like they have no choice but to surrender their guns if the government comes for them. I blame traditional media sources for this mass brainwash & I carry the responsibility of all small independent bloggers to tell the truth. So my focus today is to lay out your constitutional rights as an American, & let you decide what to do with those rights.
About a month ago I let the "democracy" word slip in a discussion with a fellow blogger. I know better. Americans have been conditioned to use this term. It's not an accurate term and it never has been a correct term to describe our form of government. The truth is that the United States of America is a constitutional republic. This is similar to a democracy because our representatives are selected by democratic elections, but ultimately our representatives are required to work within the framework of our constitution. In other words, even if 90% of Americans want something that goes against our founding principles, they have no right to call for a violation of constitutional rights.
If you are religious you might choose to think of it this way. Say that members of your congregation decide that mass fornication is a good thing. Do they have the right to change the teachings of your God? The truth is the truth. It doesn't matter how many people try to stray from it. Did I just compare our founders to God? In a way I did, but please note that I am not trying to insult anyone. For the purpose of the American Government our constitution and founders who wrote it are much like God is to believers. It is the law. It is indisputable.
Our founders did not want a "democracy" for they feared a true democracy was just as dangerous as a monarchy. The founders were highly educated people who were experienced in defending themselves against tyranny. They understood that the constitution could protect the people by limiting the power of anyone to work outside of it much better than a pure system of popularity. A system of checks and balances was set up to help limit corruption of government and also the potential for an "immoral majority" developing within the American People. We have forgotten in this country that we are ultimately ruled by a constitution.
Why is a democracy potentially just as dangerous as a monarchy? Let's look at something that Benjamin Franklin said because it answers that question more fully and succinctly than I can.
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. -Benjamin Franklin
Even 230+ years ago our founders were perceptive enough to realize that democracy was a dangerous form of government. How so? Because the citizens of a country can become just as corrupt as any government. We have seen evidence of this throughout history. Ask Native Americans & African-Americans if this population can become corrupt.
I think in 2012 we are seeing evidence of what Franklin was trying to tell us. Just because a majority of people may support certain ideas it does not mean that those ideas are just. In simple terms, just because most Americans love our president & voted for him, it does not mean that he has the power to go against our constitutional rights.
Next I'd like to review the text of the second amendment. It is very clear. This is the law of this land. So when Senator Feinstein or President Obama talk about taking your guns, you need to think about something. Are they honoring their sworn oath to uphold the constitution?
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State , the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. This is a pretty clear statement. The fact is that it took 232 years for the Supreme Court to even rule on this amendment because it has never been successfully challenged. In 2008 a case of Columbia v. Heller the Supreme Court ruled that a handgun ban in Washington D.C. was unconstitutional. One also has to take this into consideration. The Supreme Court supports your right to own guns. If you want to research this decision further you can start here.

For those who try to debate the spirit of the 2nd amendment, they are truly no different from people who will try to take Biblical quotes out of context to try to support their immoral decisions. The founders were very clear on the intent of the 2nd amendment. Let me share a few quick quotes here:
The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government. -Thomas Jefferson
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth & keystone under independence. From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, & tendencies prove that to insure peace, security & happiness, the rifle & pistol are equally indispensable, the very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that is good. -George Washington
The Constitution shall never be construed,.to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. -Samuel Adams
I could find hundreds of quotes like these. This country was built on the right to bear arms. It was built on the rights of an individual to bear arms, regardless of what his government or neighbor happened to think. This is crystal clear. Ironically the people who voice their opinions against this right have their free speech protected by your guns. Without guns in this country, all other amendments become null and void, simply because "We the People" will lose our power of enforcement.

We need to keep this in mind as our "representatives" try to push gun bans. I don't care if 99% of people are in support of gun bans (which is far from the case), it is a violation of our constitutional rights, plain and simple.
A constitutional republic protects the rights of the individual even when their ideas are very much in the minority. If I were the only person in America who believed in the 2nd amendment, I would still be within my rights to call upon it. You would all think I was insane and possibly celebrate if I was gunned down, but in the end I would be the only true American among us.
Our framers were very clear on this. If my government comes to take my guns, they are violating one of my constitutional rights that is covered by the 2nd amendment.
It is not my right, at that point, but my responsibility to respond in the name of liberty. What I am telling you is something that many are trying to soft sell, & many others have tried to avoid putting into print, but I am going to say it. The time for speaking in code is over.
If they come for our guns then it is our constitutional right to put them six feet under. You have the right to kill any representative of this government who tries to tread on your liberty. I am thinking about self-defense & not talking about inciting a revolution. Re-read Jefferson's quote. He talks about a "last resort." I am not trying to start a Revolt, I am talking about self-defense. If the day for Revolution comes, when no peaceful options exist, we may have to talk about that as well. None of us wants to think about that, but please understand that a majority cannot take away your rights as an American citizen. Only you can choose to give up your rights.
Congress could pass gun ban legislation by a 90%+ margin & it just would not matter. I think some people are very unclear on this. This is the reason we have a Supreme Court, & though I do not doubt that the Supreme Court can also become corrupt, in 2008 they got it right. They supported the constitution. It does not matter what the majority supports because America is not a democracy. A constitutional republic protects the rights of every single citizen, no matter what their "elected servants" say. A majority in America only matters when the constitution is not in play.
I just wrote what every believer in the constitution wants to say, & what every constitutional blogger needs to write. The truth of the matter is that this type of speech is viewed as dangerous & radical or subversive, & it could gain me a world of trouble that I do not want. It is also the truth. To make myself clear I will tell you again. If they come for your guns it is your right to use those guns against them & to kill them. You are protected by our constitution.

Here is an article that answers why most people won't believe that the country is going to hell in a hand basket fast.

It is a scientific study also and a great read.

I think that article just described the formative years of a liberal. I always wondered how that came about.
