This is our revolution. Right here. Right now. And we lost. We as free people of the United States have let our government go too long, and now we CAN'T win.
No, its not because we didn't see what was happening. We KNEW what was happening. We just had and have no means to stop it.
We are afraid. We fear our government.
This is a MASSIVE entity which captures our license plates just driving down the street, monitors our phone calls, captures our emails, and leaves us no privacy in our own lives.
What can we do? Some of us blog about it. Some of us have radio or TV shows where we spout our frustrations at government spying and prolific lying. And you know why we get away with it?
Because 'they' don't care. Let us complain. Let us shout our discontent. So what? If any of us were to actually plan to act, we'd be rounded up and disappeared. You know. The "patriot" act. The powers that control our country sit back and laugh at our feeble attempts to further our rights. They know they have the power. And we, those of us who speak out against tyranny have no chance of making a difference.
Our forefathers had the ability to meet and compare notes. Make plans. Decide on a course of action.
What do we have? 24/7 surveillance, unmitigated monitoring, video and voice records of every move we make. If I were to try to start a movement in my town to stand against the tyranny of our Muslim Asshole in Chief, I would be declared a traitor, displaying treason to this country, and either quietly removed to a dank cell, or, of course 'accidentally' be literally "droned" out of existence as an enemy of the state.
I can sit here in the quiet of my living room and type this all day. As long as I don't suggest a call to arms. Not to mention the 97% out there who wouldn't take action anyway, or the majority who would turn me in as a "subversive". And you know what? THAT at least I'd take as a compliment. Better a subversive patriot than a blithering idiot on the dole.
I can almost hear the pounding of the boots on my porch now....
