THE U.S. ATTACKS THE UNITED STATES - You and I are Both Criminals

Opinion by Martin

An Open Letter to the People of the United States

Even before the turn of the 19^th Century into the 20^th, when Queen Victoria was still on the Throne of England, there were groups of people plotting to overthrow the United States Government.  They worked through the ballot box and by organizing the farmers into the Grange Movement.  These were Progressives by another name.

The Progressives in the United States in the 19^th Century had ideas about increasing the hours that children must spend in school actually learning to be productive citizens and less time in the fields where they might be injured. 

The Progressives in the United States in the 19^th Century had ideas about producing equipment that would be used by farmers and purchased at a fair price rather than at the inflated prices pushed on them by the big manufacturers and their legislative cronies at state and federal levels.

The Progressives in the United States in the 19^th Century worked to convince the government that the railroads needed to ship produce to market at an affordable rate, so the farmers could ship goods to market and the people in the cities could afford to buy the produce.

William Jennings Bryant, of Nebraska, was the champion of the Progressive Movement of that time, making quite an impact on national political scene, even running for President.  These people were hard-working, honest folk who actually believed in the Constitution, a day’s work for a day’s pay.

Today’s Progressives are Communist-oriented.  They believe that the State is everything and that you, as a citizen, are too stupid to understand all of the “good things” that are being laid before you. 

They believe that the Constitution is an outdated piece of paper written by some dead rich guys in another century.  They believe that the Constitution is to be twisted into whatever they wish it to be at the moment.  They believe the Constitution should be scrapped for a document known as the U.N. Charter that was written by effete “diplomats” and “intellectuals” who know how you should live your life, where you should live your life, and what you should do during your life.  All charted, from start to finish by the State.

Now these Progressives are out in full force, running wildly from state to state, stripping you of the Constitutional Rights that were so carefully crafted by the Founding Fathers and paid for by patriots in blood throughout the ensuing 237 years.  Throughout the existence of the United States, we have fought a Revolutionary War (Part 1), the War of 1812 (Revolution, Part 2),  a war against Muslim Pirates in the Mediterranean Sea, a War of Succession, expanded the country from “Sea to Shining Sea”.  We have engaged in two World Wars (which we won) and several small “Police Actions” (Korea, Viet Nam) where war was never declared and we neither won nor lost.  Our treasure has been expended in the Middle East where the outcome is still to be decided, but we are back to fighting Muslim Pirates once again.

And now, the Progressives are out in full force taking away your Right to Speak Out for fear you’ll hurt someone’s feelings, your Right to Worship in the way you wish, to attend the Church of your choice, and to petition the government for redress of grievances.  The Progressives are out attempting to take away you Right to a firearm with which to protect your family from criminals and a tyrannical government.  The Progressives are trying to remove your Right to a Fair Trial and privacy by placing drones, used successfully in the War against Terror, in the skies over the United States to keep track of whom you see and whether or not you have a weapon.

What the Progressives are doing, My Friends, are making criminals out of the general population of the United States.  They are “mainstreaming” the bad guys and making “bad guys” out of You and Me. 

By stripping you of your Rights, they are enslaving you.  They are turning you into a beast of burden for the State and by working, as they have done, ever so slowly, removing your ability to stop the slide into darkness as the Light of Freedom dims and goes out!
