161. This nation was born of the courage of religious, God fearing "criminals" — "gun nuts" who treasured Liberty and who understood the true linkage between an armed citizenry and Liberty.
162. Those who beat their swords into plowshares, will plow for those who still have swords.
163. If you champion non-violence, Taliban airplane highjackers would love to highjack an airliner filled with people who share your views. No airliner filled with people who share my view would ever be successfully highjacked. People who share my views would quickly muster as a make shift militia [the peoples' army] and defeat the highjackers' — without the damn government's help.
164. The core essence of Talibanism is this: manipulating and perverting language and established doctrine to mean something else for self-serving purposes; unfettered, arbitrary control over others; the willingness to commit despicable acts against innocent others without just cause; and actually doing so.
165. The United States is plagued with American style Talibans. These societal scourges are frequently referred to as liberal Democrats and champions of victim disarmament laws—anyone who tells you that we must surrender one more liberty or right to promote the general welfare. A classic example of an American style Taliban is Gordon Pitter, Police Chief, Sebastopol, California. This public serpent functioned as an American style Taliban when he did all of the following:

  • First, he refused to stock his police headquarters with CCW permit applications because instead of making an individual determination for each applicant, he made up his mind that he would never issue a CCW permit to anyone; hence, there was [allegedly] no purpose in keeping a supply of such applications on hand.
  • Second, he made up his own illegal "legislation by cop" standard for issuing CCW permits, namely, one had to be "the best" to get a permit and, since he is incapable of determining who is "the best," he decided he would never issue a CCW permit to anyone.
  • Third, he did this after the Federal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that police chiefs must make an individual determination for each application for a CCW permit, and California law states that for "good cause" the police chief may issue such permits, which implies that some permits, at a minimum, should be issued. But this American style Taliban unilaterally pushed his discretion to an extreme and, by refusing to even give out, or to consider, CCW applications, refused to exercise his discretion, which is a clear abuse of his discretion.
  • Finally, to exacerbate matters, the Sebastopol City Council, the Sebastopol City Manager, and the Sebastopol City Attorney, to date, after being put on repeated clear notice of this rogue public serpent, have still failed to take any meaningful public action to get this serpent under control or to fire him.

166. Anyone who tells you you must surrender liberty, you have no right to use a gun in a public place for lawful self-defense, and you must beg them for their permission to do so is your enemy. Repeat: your enemy. That fact is true despite the fact that that enemy may be perceived by others as a police chief or a sheriff or a law maker or a judge, too many of which have morphed into being public serpents.
167. Gun Prohibitionists who champion victim disarmament laws support unconstitutional policies. They are hypocrites, elitists, authoritarians who support discriminatory laws of racist origins that are Nazi inspired.
168. Citizens who really believe in the inalienable right to life and liberty, and that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to arms that shall not be infringed, act like it. They pack a sidearm without a CCW permit. They go public with that fact. They defy civil authority to arrest them. If arrested, they defend in court. If the jury does not cut them loose, and if they lose on appeal, the militia, if active, musters, and does whatever needs to be done to correct a miscarriage of justice. Otherwise, Liberty is toothless.
169. The highest person on the proper Constitutional chain of command is: citizen. Never forget that fact. Burn that fact into your brain. Every citizen should exercise oversight control over all public serpents and tell these serpents that citizens are their boss and master, not the other way around.
170. Unfortunately, too many domestic enemies of the U.S. Constitution know they are such and do not give a damn, are proud of it and are pretty good at concealing that fact while others are Constitutional illiterates who are so incompetent they do not realize that they are one of those "domestic" enemies that they took a sworn oath to defend against.
171. Do not take refuge in denial. Given current trends, the odds are high that government goons will be sent to confiscate your guns.
172. When firearm confiscation begins, as a good citizen, it is incumbent upon you to surrender your guns—bullets first.
173. All gun confiscation orders would be unconstitutional. All who issue such orders would be traitors. All who would try to execute those orders would be traitors. Such orders would be in contravention of the organic law of this nation and the Nuremberg Principle [civil authority cannot wage war against its own civilians and "I was just following orders." is not a legally valid defense to obeying an illegal order.] Any cop and any soldier who violates those legal principles is, despite his or her uniform, a government goon. When a government goon leaves you no alternative, per the organic law of this nation, it is every citizen's right and duty to kill the goon and all who issued such orders.
174. I want to be perfectly clear on the following points.

  • A peace officer, like all good citizens, is worth many times his or her weight in gold. Each are true national assets. Each should be treasured.
  • Peace officers and citizens function best when they reinforce and support one another. Each group should do their utmost best to never let anyone drive a wedge between them nor to separate them from the U.S. Bill of Rights.
  • It is vital, however, to understand the difference between a peace officer, a law enforcement officer, an enforcer, and a government goon. The first respects the Constitution. The later will enforce anything.
  • The stark reality is simply this: a citizen loyal to the Constitutional Rule of Law must be willing, able and ready to reduce a gun grabbing government goon to maggot meat; otherwise, Liberty has no teeth.
  • Judges cannot be counted upon to preserve nor to restore Liberty.
  • Some judges are political hacks. Some cave to perceived political correctness. A tyrant wannabee has the power to turn an excellent judge's brain into a pink mist.
  • None of the above is intended to reflect adversely on good cops, good soldiers and good judges, of which there are many.
  • But no one who seriously violates the Constitution should be granted sanctuary merely because of their uniform or title.
  • It is vital that civil authority not miscalculate; therefore, I am doing my utmost best to send a clear message to civil authority, its agents, and all citizens. In my judgement, it is better for gun grabbing government goons to be greeted by Geronimos, not Ghandis.
  • THE BEST WAY TO PROMOTE A PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE PER A CONSTITUTIONAL RULE OF LAW AND TO PROVE THAT YOU ABHOR VIOLENCE IS TO TAKE THE BILL OF RIGHTS SERIOUSLY — THE ENTIRE BILL, AS WRITTEN. THIS IS BECAUSE TO THE EXTENT THAT CIVIL AUTHORITY AND CITIZENS REVERE THE BILL OF RIGHTS, EVERYONE'S RIGHTS, FREEDOM, AND LIBERTY ARE HONORED, CIVIL AUTHORITY DOES NOT ALIENATE ITSELF FROM CITIZENS, CIVIL AUTHORITY'S LEGITIMACY REMAINS BEYOND DISPUTE, AND PEOPLE LACK MERITORIOUS GRIEVANCES. AS A CONSEQUENCE, THERE EXISTS NO ISSUE WORTHY OF VIOLENCE, ESPECIALLY LETHAL FORCE.

175. If the referenced train wreck is to be avoided, it is imperative that all good cops, all good soldiers, all good judges, and all ordinary good citizens unite around the Bill of Rights, support one another—publicly and strenuously, in a manner that maintains faith with the Founders and Framers—to promote a maximum measure of individual liberty. Otherwise, the Bill of Right's glue will let go and the train wreck will happen.
176. If you are unwilling to deliver your guns bullets first, look in the mirror and ask yourself, honestly, this question: "Am I worthy of Liberty?"
177. When the glue lets go, and gun grabbing government goons come, Liberty has a knife held to her jugular. Ordinary citizens must marshall quickly and effectively as a militia to preserve Liberty. They must do what no reasonably constituted person wants to do: kill other human beings over an idea and a dispute about the meaning of words. But much more than words, definitions and concepts are involved. Liberty, the Constitutional Rule of Law, Civilization and a Way of Life are involved...and at risk.
178. If you will not stand up for Liberty now, before the government goons come, who will?
179. If you will not stand up for Liberty now, before the government goons come, what makes you think you will stand up then? Are you kidding yourself? Be honest!
180. If you will not stand up, how will Liberty survive?
181. If you will not stand up for Liberty now, think about the following wisdom. You need to come to terms with these quotations.
"Will the abandonment of your most sacred rights tend to the security of your liberty? Liberty, the greatest of all earthly blessings—give us that precious jewel, and you may take everything else! ... Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force and whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined." —Patrick Henry, "Liberty or Death" Speech
"Disobedience to tyrants is obedience to God." —Benjamin Franklin*
*[Comment: A friend of mine said, "The fat man got it right!"]
"Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle! Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will be imposed upon them, and these will continue until they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both." —Frederick Douglas, "West Indian Emancipation" August 4, 1857
"For this reason, whoever desires liberty, should understand these vital facts, viz: 1. That every man who puts money into the hands of a "government" (so called), puts into its hands a sword which will be used against himself, to extort more money from him, and also to keep him in subjection to its arbitrary will. 2. That those who will take his money, without his consent, in the first place will use it for his further robbery and enslavement, if he presumes to resist their demands in the future." —Lysander Spooner, No Treason No. VI, 1870
182. We are all guilty of civic malpractice. We have the kind of civil authority we deserve. Citizens are guilty of citizen malpractice for letting civil authority slip its Constitutional collar. Officials are guilty of statecraft malpractice for inventing bogus doctrines, for hiding behind immunities, for gutting the Right to Petition and for gutting the Second Amendment.
183. Mark my words: Our system is at these stages—Complacency. Rot. Blatant Oppression. Agitation for Reform. We are close to civil war. The sky is falling.
184. Anyone who claims citizens do not have a right to defend themselves in a public place with a firearm is invited to self-fornicate.
185. Power still comes out of the barrel of a gun.
186. Gun Prohibitionists are thin skinned serpents, easily reduced to maggot meat by lead poisoning.
187. We are in a race to see which happens first: Civil authority takes the First Amendment's Right to Petition and the Second Amendment's individual right to bear arms free of prior restraint seriously or civil war erupts.
188. A civic lesson in Triggernometry 101 will cancel all ballots and nullify all unconstitutional laws, laying the ground work for a rebirth of freedom, at a horrific price. That price will probably have to be paid because power abhors a vacuum. That is an eternal truth per the Laws of Nature and the Laws of Politics.
189. Power, unless checked, will expand indefinitely, consuming all in its path.
190. Unfortunately, civic authority is not sufficiently afraid of an armed citizenry. Too many citizens are apathetic, clueless, scared and have been too tolerant of, and too polite toward, public serpents. On the other hand, there is a hard corps of armed citizens who retain the will, the courage, the skill, and the pragmatic means to enforce their rights and to deliver an overdue, well deserved, comeuppance to public serpents. Civil authority, collectively, however, is too arrogant and too stupid to appreciate how vulnerable it is and how much it has virulently pissed off a hard corps of armed citizens.
191. Do you now understand the link between privately owned, unregistered firearms and Liberty? Do you now understand that civil authority in the United States operates like a criminal enterprise under the sham of the people being sovereign and in control of civil authority?
192. So, what needs to be done? Ponder these reforms and ideas:

  • Immediately declare that the Second Amendment does guarantee an individual right to arms independently of membership in any government organization, that all prior restraints against that right are unconstitutional, and take that right seriously.
  • Immediately repeal all prior restraint "CCW permit" weapons laws and get law enforcement entirely out of the business of issuing CCW permits.
  • Immediately repeal all laws that grant civil authority immunity for its wrong doing.
  • Civil authority should immediately start taking ultra seriously two rights: the First Amendment's Right to Petition for Redress of Grievances and the Second Amendment's Right to Bear Arms—including in a public place.
  • The U.S. Supreme Court should reverse itself and declare that it does not have sole authority to determine what is and is not Constitutional.
  • The U.S. Supreme Court should promptly declare that jurors are permitted to be a judge of the facts and the law.
  • Celebrate every December 15th as Bill of Rights Day in ways that are truly meaningful. [I can think of at least a dozen major different ways to do so. Can you?]
  • Become Constitutionally literate.
  • Know what your rights are.
  • Know the limits of civil authority's powers.
  • Demand that all officials stay in line and wear the Constitution's chains.
  • Get involved politically.
  • Publicly tell civil authority when it is committing error or makes and enforces unwise policy.
  • Do not give up on the political-legal system.
  • Throw off your chains! Stop being psychologically intimidated by civil authority.
  • Prepare for civil war—in earnest. Train yourself to be the functional equivalent of an effective, modern Minuteman.
  • Steel yourself to the idea of killing public serpents, if it becomes truly necessary, as a last ditch effort to keep Liberty's flame burning.

193. Do you reject this analysis? These sentiments? If so, here is a challenge:

  • Are any specified facts wrong?
  • If Gun Grabbing Government Goons started their raids tomorrow, are you prepared to stop them?
  • Are you enjoying some measure of Liberty now because Tyrant Wannabees fear me and people like me?
  • What have you done to preserve Liberty?
  • Do you take Liberty for granted?
  • As a citizen, are you coasting?
  • Do you assume that tyranny can never take root in the United States? How far down the Tyrant's Pattern are we?
  • Do you realize that most victims of tyranny did not see the darkness fall until they were trapped?
  • Can you see yourself being reduced to a lampshade? To a medical experiment? To smoke? To a bullet stop? To land fill?

194. In summation, think about the following. There is a grand building located at 914 Capitol Mall in Sacramento, California. The California Supreme Court frequently sits in this building. Sadly, that court has been acting in a fractured manner. It has a track record of honoring most Constitutional bright lines but not this one:
"...the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
Instead, this court has been upholding laws that further infringe against the Second Amendment. Ironically, the east wall of the lobby of this building contains this inscription:
"This abode of peace shall stand as long as there are those willing to die in its defense."
Think about this court's record on Second Amendment cases and this inscription. Ask yourself these questions:

  • Is that building still an "abode of peace" or has it degenerated it into an "abode of Judicial Despotism" blind to the Second Amendment's Constitutional bright line?
  • Who is willing to die in defense of that "abode," and its current occupants, when those occupants are unwilling to honor the Second Amendment's Constitutional bright line? [Not I!]
  • Who is willing to die in defense of that "abode," and its current occupants, when those occupants construe the Second Amendment in a manner that denies citizens an individual right to arms? When those occupants uphold as Constitutional laws that devalue U.S. citizenship and tell citizens they must beg Chief Serpents like Sebastopol's Gordon Pitter for their permission to pack a gun in a public place for lawful self-defense? When those occupants, while guarded with armed guards paid for by taxpayers, uphold unconstitutional laws that coerce citizens to circulate in public as unarmed, vulnerable prey, without legal or financial recourse against civil authority, when civil authority fails to protect them while not letting them protect themselves? [Not I!]
  • When, if ever, will virulently pissed off citizens storm that "abode" and confront its occupants face-to-face about Liberty?

195. A true, deep love of Liberty, coupled with a faithful adherence to the Bill of Rights, would eliminate many of Mankind's major political-legal problems. Such an attitude would create a firm foundation for safety in society and an excellent basis for a long term, mutually rewarding, Citizen-Civil Authority relationship. Sadly, however, too many in and out of civil authority lack such an attitude. Too many think the Founders, the Framers, and the Ratifiers are old prune faces reduced to dust who are irrelevant by over two hundred years. To exacerbate matters, too many erroneously believe that they are smarter than the Framers, or they are not duty bound to adhere to the Framers' framework. There is, however, a direct relationship between how far civil authority undermines the Bill of Rights and our current major political-legal problems. To the extent that civil authority and Authoritarian Elitists persist with perverting language to undermine the Bill of Rights, it is inevitable that those who value Liberty will be forced to confront reality starkly. When that happens, many will roll up their sleeves and begin to slit throats. Liberty will be born anew from such courage and conviction, and it will be nurtured with the blood of Patriots and Non-Patriots.
