Have a great weekend everyone.

No--you are not free.

You contracted away all of your rights for privileges and U.S. Citizenship.

what part of inalienable don't you understand?

Submitted by RonPaul4President on Sun, 05/02/2010 - 17:42. Permalink

"incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred" The only court room where a fraudulent contract, such as the one you are referring to, would be recognized would be a court that didn't acknowledge individual rights. Any group of powerful thugs can set up a "government" and coerce and defraud through "contracts" in court without a basis in common law.

Ron Paul's Convention Speech

Just a thought---

Submitted by E. Oregon 4 Ron on Fri, 04/30/2010 - 12:29. Permalink

Invite the Love Police to come to America---get the "proper" permits for a demonstration so they wouldn't get tazed and arrested, and have them go to major cities.
Their act would spread like wildfire!

And btw, getting the "proper" permits would defeat the entire purpose of their message. The message is: You don't need permission to be who you are.

At least, they never used to. Politeness has a high value in England, but that means the megaphone is more obnoxious than open carry!

I am a huge supported of the liberty movement, but I'm at an impasse right now. I'm in between jobs and need to support my family. I have the opportunity to get a job with the DoD and/or a Defense Contractor. What would you guys do? Overcome your philosophical divide and take the job or keep looking?

Support family first.

You will be able to witness what goes on in the 'inside' the beast. Sooner or later you will have to make a choice about your principles when confronted with something that tempts you into 'selling your soul'. At that point you decide what to do.

My husband is a software engineer and was asked to work on something for DoD. Later he realized he was working on those things that fly around and spy. That was pushing it. But then it morphed into explosives that go off - that was it for him. He confronted management and was let go. So be it. We lost income but he sleeps better.

I agree with Tenbob below

Take the job and do your best to protect the movement from inside,and when they ask you to "Bend" your principles or beliefs then reassess your position.

First priority, support family.

Secondly, would you not rather have a liberty lover in that position than a neo-con? I certainly would.

I saw this a long time ago and loved it but forgot about it. The video is awe-inspiring. I wish we all had the cojones or that we didn't live in a "police state", so we could do such actions.

Excerpts from video:
“The person next to you is either a terrorist or has the swine flu.”

Activist says to a policemant:
“No, no it’s a matter of principle. . . I answer only to the absolutes! To speak out against lies and murder just fills me with joy; it makes me feel closer to my fellow man. Just to know that someone can come out here and get excited and just cut through the BS, have no fear, be full of love and spread my message . . . which is a message I feel is good

“Love is more powerful than fear. The revolution is here.”

And never forget, “Humans, despite our artistic pretensions, our sophistication and many accomplishments, owe the fact of our existence to a six-inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains.”

I wondered if this was disturbing the peace...

Submitted by Boru on Fri, 04/30/2010 - 08:25. Permalink

Per Wikipedia:

"Disturbing the peace is a crime generally defined as the unsettling of proper order in a public space through one's actions...

With regard to noise, if there have not been active requests to the perpetrator to reduce the noise to a reasonable level, it is not considered an act of disturbing the peace."

The phrase "unsettling of proper order" disturbed me the most. Who determines what proper order means? Certainly, corporations think the proper order is for them to persuade us to buy stuff and we buy stuff. So when this guy dissuades people from buying stuff, that would be unsettling proper order...to corporatists.

Since he was not arrested, it appears that corporations are NOT determining what proper order are...at least in England.
