---"Revolutionary Majorities" continued
Had those who desired liberty in 1776 waited until a numerical majority of their fellow citizens were ready to "wake-up" (as the saying is to fight for the overthrow of the government~ had they hesitated in the use of "illegal" force and violence (force and violence are never legal except by those in power) against their governmental enemies, they would have all died in their old age as law-abiding subjects of the king - minus their freedom.
Patriots of 1775 considered the sympathies of less than a third of the people sufficient to begin general hostilities against their oppressors. Herein lies the historical context of the American Revolutionary Majority. It has been wisely said that those who do not know history are condemned by their ignorance to repeat its mistakes; it is likewise equally true that those who know and understand history can repeat its successes
Yesterday and Today
In America today the manacles of slavery and destruction once forged in London by the king are now forged in Washington. Acts of tyranny are carried out in the name of the federal government rather. than in the name of the throne. The vicious enforcers of dictatorial policies often call themselves F.B.I. or I.R.S. agents instead of His Royal Majesty's Troops or tax collectors of the realm. Substituting for the redcoats of the British are the "bluecoats" of the bureaucrats and in far greater numbers. Though babblings for "the divine rights" of kings to rule have ceased, modern fools prattle of "democratic majorities" composed of an illiterate electorate enfranchised for the purpose of dispossessing the descendants of the founders. While different in nomenclature, the end results are exactly the same - the dark, cold, tight chains of slavery.
A numerical majority of today's citizens cannot read these footprints of tyranny nor understand where they lead. In this, they are no different than their counterparts of 200 years ago. Additionally. modern governments have mass communications to subtly guide the thinking of their subjects; thus is seen the phenomenon of today's citizen, rushing forth to place the cuffs of bondage upon his own wrists by irrationally clamoring (as he has been indoctrinated) for more laws and government to solve problems created by an excess of both. This mental inversion, whereby the citizen willfully aids in efforts to subjugate himself, is of no small import for those who treasure their liberty. The implications are many, but the consequences could be singular: a governmentally programmed, democratic majority may, as they dance along to mental tunes played by an electronic band of orchestrated communication. gleefully drag down (with their self-fastened chains) everyone else into the black hole of oblivion. page 4 continued next page---
