No-one is coming, or will come, to set you free from oppression.
Our forefathers learned, and came to understand that TRUTH.
Our forefathers struggled, and sometimes fought [spilled their blood], to secure the rights and freedoms which they thought were due, to
free men.
In our lives, we should actively
seek justice, and TRUTH.
And we should always spurn 'laws' which clearly undermine those ideals.
IF YOU WANT TO BE FREE, YOU MUST UNDERSTAND....
Nobody is ever going to come, and fight injustice, to make you free!
The only way to be free, is to believe, to understand, that you
ARE free!
.....[if you want to be, if you
choose to be.]
i.e. You must live your life as though you are truly a free person!
Our
freedom begins, when we seize our freedom for ourselves.

.....for the chain of dependence is incomparably stronger than the chain of iron."

"Definition,
Thug = = a person willing to commit violence to get what they *desire*.
Definition,
'nice' person = = persons who enjoy the benefits of rights and freedoms, but see no connection between their own rights and freedoms, and the personal sacrifice which was required, to secure those rights and freedoms.
Definition,
Citizen = = a person who recognises they have a responsibility to defend [through personal sacrifice], their own rights and freedoms.
What we all have to ask ourselves is, in a world full of thugs, and 'nice' people.....
If the 'nice' people in the world are not prepared to defend their rights and freedoms [which were won by the sacrifice of the spilt blood of their fathers], and and if they are not prepared to condemn [and physically oppose] the thugs....
Then in a struggle between thugs, and 'nice' people, who will prevail?
Aggression [or oppression] is not overcome, by surrender to it.
That way leads to slavery [and no peace!].
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
Edmund Burke (1729-1797)"
