Time for a U.S. Revolution - Fifteen Reasons

Very true.... but unfortunately the public is far too indoctrinated and suppressed to ever grow the sack to form a real fighting force. Not to mention any such efforts would be quickly stifled through the government's many secret defense agencies and mobilization of the national guard if necessary. In all likely-hood the media would hardly get wind of it and it would be covered up long before anybody got a good look at the situation.

If you thing the planing a violent revolution on the internet is a wise idea you are more disillusioned than I previously thought. Are you aware that the planing of overthrowing the federal government is a serious crime. A tax rebellion is a form of civil disobedience and would actually be looked upon more favorably. From some of the comments here all that has been shown is that you are just as clueless as the left and right anarchist movement in Europe. With that being said let me just warn you, while I do support actually holding the entire government accountable for their actions just as we are I WILL literally drop any one of you that crosses my path if you attempt your revolution. Cockroaches don't like light re-read my post and do what I did find the dirt and expose it. Your ignorant idea that America has any wish to follow you down the road of destruction is nothing but a wet dream for the truly clueless. If you think NY would find any of your plans appealing you truly deserve the visits you WILL receive in the near future, you may get some support from the NYC area but not from any county above Westchester. Now does the government need a wake up call? Yes it does, but all you will do with your method is at best become prison currency and at worst dead. I am a conservative most of us upstate are so don't for one second think that the radical left or right will see anything but the business end of a gun if it is attempted. We all want to fix this but not your way. In the future if all else fails your idea has merit but not yet.

Cjdny? I'd like to buy you a beer. And I'll have a margarita at the same time.

As for the rest of you people? You want to kill yourselves or get your butt locked up by doing something stupid? Fine by me. I don't give a crap. One less idiot if not several less idiots walking free or alive make the world a safer place.

I like that quote.

It is very fitting here. Do you know where it's from?

Sorry I don't, it just happened to come in an E-Mail this morning and it just jumped out at me as fitting for this thread.

The revolution will ONLY happen when, not if, we get at least some of the top military brass involved. A military coup would take a matter of minutes. Sieze the White House, the Capital, etc. all at once.

Then, before anyone can think about it, immediately execute all politicians, and other government scumbags from the top down at least ten levels. Next all lobbyists, and every single person connected with the Fed in any way. Hold a press conference, announce to the sheep that the government has been abolished, the top General or Admiral will be the temporary Commander in Chief until new elections are held, and we are reverting to the Constitution and nothing else. Pull all troops from ALL foreign locations, bases etc immediately, let Iraq nationalise their oil and do whatever they want with it. Straighten out the bank system immediately by making all Federal Reserve notes worthless and issuing a new currency like Lincoln's greenbacks. Hold elections within six months. Nationalize all media and give all candidates equal free airtime.

Piece of cake. The sheep would barely notice, really.

I agree that a third party needs to be created, but would it be the suggested Tea Party? Most Americans are too lazy to consider going through the democratic process in order to create a new party. It really does take alot of effort when you consider that the two parties we have are similar to a mega-corporation. Although I would hate to see a bloody revolution (which is horrible beyond imagination) I think it may come to that. History will decide if we made the right decision either way.

Heck no, the Tea Party is a joke. I'm sorry, they are completely co-opted. The problem is third parties are consistently barred from debates. They are not given equal footing by the FEC. In the respect you are very much correct, I don't think there will ever be a serious change. As for bloody revolution, personally i think it will just be the welfare bottom feeders trashing things and getting shot at. Most people don't care, we all know that. The problem here is people can talk about revolution all they want, I'm not inclined to agree with many of the political positions many members espouse-How are we ever going to reconcile these serious differences? Either way someone is getting stomped on and the cycle continues thereby leading to another useless conflict. I take a very dim view of human nature as a whole. Most people abuse power when they get it by nature, I expect none of that to change.

It's not a dim view that you have of human nature,
just a realistic one.

You are right. What great leader ( other than Ghandi ) hasn't been corrupt in one way or another?

We are the way that we are.
