A perspective from someone who's been there, done that.

This should be required viewing by all who love freedom and know it can be taken away by the criminal element that has taken over our government. :txflag:

Thanks for sharing, OP. Great vid!

Well spoken. Let us not allow our country to descend into civil war, for it will be long and bloody and painful beyond imagination. Let us fight within the political system as long as we can to restore the freedoms our forefathers secured for us.

Very interesting video. It's interesting that he says the cause for his country's civil was was that the government turned their guns on the poor people. That it was the rich that kept the government in power. Seems like it might be the opposite here.

It's the rich that pull the strings the poor are just willing puppets of the megawelthy. You know the old saying "Money talks and barnyard fertilizer walks."

Are you saying that our government might turn its guns on the rich? Or that the poor keep our government in power? I'm confused.

I was trying to make the point that I think the current gooberment has to worry more about the rich or at least those working and that it is the poor that are keeping them in power with their votes.
