A BIG SIGN... things are changing.... and we are making a difference!

And how it was corrupted into what is our modern legal system which back in the late 1800s allowed "persons" to be second class citizens... unfortunately... those "persons" have become everyone other than the ruling elite.

Before the Supreme Court

dfwriter I see your point & the north & south should have handled the issues differently.

GOOD comment . Slavery was an issue not the cause of civil war. That issue had been tabled at the Declaration of Independance, signing.

Excellent post! Thanks for compiling this list.

Went and saw Judge Napolitano speak, The room was packed with college students. Some had never heard of him and were hearing the message for the first time. The seeds found very fertile soil. He spoke about the legal perspective and how our rights starting getting eroded long ago.

I think I read a winning strategy between the lines. He spoke as how the Patriot Act had never come and been argued before the Supreme Court. There was one incident but it was withdrawn the night before as the Government thought it would lose the case. If this ever goes before the Supreme Court it will be ruled unconstitutional I guarantee it.

Sorry guys and gals,

Slavery was NOT the cause of the civil war. I know, I know, I was taught the same thing in school. Lincoln himself said that he would continue slavery if he could avoid war. The war was started by the northern mercantilists that were getting special concessions form congress at the expense of the southern economy. The south just got sick of it and walked out. All of europe freed their slaves without bloodshed and we were already well on our way to doing the same. The civil war itself is what caused the animosity between the southern whites and blacks. There were well documented arguments already going on in most southern states to abolish the slave trade. A lot of these arguments were economic in nature. Slaves are actually more expensive when you look at cost and production then it is to just pay people a wage. This was well documented in Europe and the reality of the economics was filtering it's way into the U.S. The slave issue came up when some European powers were considering recognizing the south as a nation and giving financial and possibly military assistance to the cause. The slave issue turned Europe against the south.

A local talk show here in Charleston had a two hour program about Dr. Paul, the economy, the Federal Reserve and Austrian Economics. You would be surprised how many people called in asking questions...and then saying that they wished they had voted for Ron Paul.

It was encouraging!

Could it....oh please please please....could it be we are now in the "then we win" part of our mission? Maybe there is more hope for this election than I realized....no matter what though we need to keep up our efforts full-force. If indeed we are making progress, we have to capitalize on it as much as possible.

the link you posted

http://www.alternet.org/drugreporter/94904/victims_of_the_dr...

covers the cases of several black drug dealers who successfully used the freeman defense to avoid the death penalty.

though the author doesn't see it that way, and ridicules the men for using a defense that was pioneered by groups with ties to the KKK, white supremacy , etc....

It's still a helluva article, information-wise. Even if the author is biased against the information, he still provides very good historical basis.

I'm coming to the conclusion, that while slavery is a horrible evil....you can see the price this country paid for the solution.

federal strength.

I'm not saying that I would take that back. I want all men to be free.

What I'm saying is that in abolishing slavery, the way we did it came at a high price....worth it in my opinion, but if we RECOGNIZE that the consequence was ultimate federal power over the states....there's no reason people can't reverse the undesirable part of the results.

let me put it in a slightly different way:

in setting one sub-group that was enslaved free (a moral thing)

we have inadvertently laid a path to slavery for all. (an immoral thing)

even if only 38% of us recognize this, we can start to return power back to the states.

we might resemble a republic some day.

I realize I'm dreaming.

Sadly, the one thing that was more important to slave owners, state's rights, and state's autonomy...was the very thing they destroyed, by insisting on continuing the slave trade.

we're all paying for that. and for black folks....it has to suck, because they'll have to face slavery twice.

once under the old south

and once under the new totalitarian federal power known as the United States of America.

over the past week will also add fuel to the fire we've lit. There are several articles from mainstream journalists about this "police state" in America. While the mainstream media tried to spin this as "anarchists" and "anti-establishment"; these journalists are waking up another arena of American citizens who now wonder why this didn't make the news. We still have a way to go, so I agree with FireTeam - keep the pressure up, keep talking, keep passing out the literature and DVDs, keep questioning the role of the Federal Reserve and their "funny" money policies.

This story has some interesting sidelines to it for us! How is it such a shoddy story can make it to national news for nearly a week?

This story also proves how poor the journalists are these days. No real research or checks are done. This shows the news media for what they really are... hacks!

We should use this example to further discredit the news media!!!

Well - I'm glad the BreakTheMatrix and other sites are finding the mainstream support.

There's no question that the financial sector is currently going through absolute hell - and will continue to do so!

Americans ARE waking up. A little economic grind will do that.

I have only more questions.... I wonder why they decided to come out with this now?

"The reason for the collapse of World Trade Center 7 is no longer a mystery," said Dr. Shyam Sunder, the lead investigator on the NIST team.

So, if it's so obvious, why did it take 7 years to figure it out?

Yes. More are unhappy and looking for us. When they find us they will join. Look how much good just that walk for freedom is doing (send them money). The Constitution will save us. We are the only country to have it, and the built in safeguards must stand before they can "do away" with it. More RP like minded people running for office, AND, they can try to kill us all, but that would be a HUGE mistake...many more of us would get off our butts then!.They are going DOWN..

that got nowhere and gave up fighting alone out of sheer exhaustion...

Just got this email from a dear friend who fit in that category. There are alot of sheeple out there but there are ALOT of ones who KNOW... just gave up the fight. When they see there are enough today making a difference they will quickly join us and the tide WILL change.
I'm not certain but I think this is someone from the Jax area who was in the meetup group for RP and went on to run for office.

Here's the email, I'm gonna send this to my friend & hopefully get him here to check us out.

oooooooooo get this i was shopping yesterday...a women was looking in juice area with me and said wow 3 for 5 dollars i replied yeh but not all juice she had 1 in her hand and she handed to me i said yeh 7% so i looked at the others 10& and 25% she replied my son really likes this stuff. we started chatting somehow got into politics and i went into 1 of my tirades about constitution bill of rights declaration of independence what was inscribed on liberty bell sayings of fore fathers etc. she shook my hand and stated im counsel women so and so gave me her card and stated you should run for city council we need new blood in there. I replied well I have a sordid past.she said well who doesn't .she also told me if you need anything email me. I replied you most likely wont remember me and she said yes I will just state the person in store I chatted with. Then after she walked off an employee that over heard the convo came up to me and we began chatting about the same things....
how cool is that? people where i live now get into my opinions of these things a lot lol and when i showed the card to a few people they where like whaaa.

we're making a huge difference. And politics will be forever changed.

Fox stock is falling and the GOP does not want us anywhere near them.

It's good to have this COLLECTION of good stuff!

and it will continue on in force. All we can lose from here is dead wood.

I can feel some progress. I would really like to see the big one-Dr. Paul on a ballot. Any ol' ballot will do. Any position will do. Just let us vote for Dr. Paul in November-Please, God.

Most deserving of a bump..

best post of the day!

It is true that the heat is on, but you need to be careful when playing with fire. Remember that there are a lot of people with a lot of money and power to lose should our side "win" this conflict, and they are not going to go down quietly. They will pull out every weapon in their arsenal to fight us.

This is why I believe it is very important that all of us who are so inclined should pray for God's hand of protection upon the movement, our country, our families, and ourselves.

Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling!
