Brownie.
While I agree with everything there, I'd caution against publicly joining any group like this.
The current administration is data mining e-mails and looking at membership lists for names.
Keep a low profile.
Quiet is always better.

My sentiments exactly match Uncle Skip's. Need to be careful of what list's your name wind's up on when they come to checking.

so everyone keeps quiet and things continue on their present course?

the founding fathers are surely spinning wildly in their graves.

Hamilton said in Federalist 22 that the existing structure under the Articles of Confederation was infirm because it did not rest on a vote of "the PEOPLE." He wanted American empire to be more solidly based:

"The fabric of American empire ought to rest on the solid basis of THE CONSENT OF THE PEOPLE. The streams of national power ought to flow immediately from that pure, original fountain of all legitimate authority."

keep quiet and you consent to whats happening

not going to go any farther, this is not the proper forum.

Heady thoughts. Almost too much for a site that is devoted to things we enjoy. Anyway here is my 2 cents worth.... OK maybe a little more.
I tend to agree with Skip but we all need to pay close attention to what Ice is saying.
By keeping quiet we allow the those in power to continue toward their end, unimpeded.
If we don't speak our voice, who will? If no one speaks up who has the right to complain about the situation?
It is truly unfortunate that our Country has (d)evolved to a place where the common man (or woman) is fearful of speaking common sense ideas without some form of retribution, whether that retribution be from someone who doesn't agree with their ideas or the "government".

I do agree completely with Ice's last sentence.

I did not say keep quiet in the sense of not protesting or having your voice heard.....
I said be selective about what and where you post your opinion, especially on websites that might openly suggest the idea of armed insurrection. If you tell everything you know, you're likely get a knock on the door in the middle of the night in the near future.
Here in Houston, recent gun buyers are being visited by the Feds and are being asked, however politely, to see the weapons that were just purchased.
These agents are only doing their job, but what about when the Obama National Police force takes over?
I prefer to keep my options, and my profile very small.
You might want to consider that option yourselves.
Trust me.

Skip,
I agree completely. I misunderstood your first post. Things are no different in the Portland, Oregon area.
