For every year since our revolution even during the creation of the constitution we have discussed the future of this nation. I watched many great and terrible things of which we who survived British rule would never think humanity would follow down such a dark path . Never ending warfare, welfare and the plans and the decisions of men and women ignoring the principles of freedom. Governments in other nations and in these free states finding only power in their hearts and minds. Our constitution is not perfect knowing what I have seen I would had added on many other things to restrict this government from outside influences. Foreign and Domestic money changers and money printers warfare and welfare with no moral or economic balance or consequence.
We knew this new found freedom be an experiment of sorts in the history of mankind. Free men and women electing, giving new blood to this idea of liberty, free trade and fair trade and economic brilliance.
In moments in history you are living up to the values of free men but the creator and protecting those rights. Then there are many elected and chosen who can not be trusted, for they do not see liberty as god's will they do not see free people as freedom that should be protected. For they use force, information and misinformation to the people, confusing them and distracting them for they have been born into decades eroding liberty. I have heard over the century the word patriot used in many unpatriotic definitions. But to me, it is time patriots tell the truth, for that is all that can define him the truth. Lies are current building blocks and standing on this nations throat. For it is patriots who must remove boot that holding them down, expose the truth and free men and women will join that truth and ideal. Ignoring the truths of oppressive governments anywhere means you ignore your own right to be free. Acceptance of lies, unjust laws and compliance is not patriotic.

Words are like farts in a hurricane, actions speak volumes.

So far all you do is post obtuse screeds from a computer chair while doing nothing. Hoping other people will take up your cause, hoping others will lead the revolution you desire, hoping other people will fight and get hurt. Hiding behind noble words of patriotism and God's Will...while hoping others will be those patriots.

The highest definition of patriot is some one who stands up for their communities and country even when standing up means they will suffer the consiquences. They act for themselves, others, and their beliefs. They don't sit around whining like little children things aren't exactly as they like hoping others will do things for them.

If they say acceptance is not right or just, they practice disobediance when they preach it.

Patriots don't extol disobediance and hope others do it and take the consiquences. They lead with honor and integirty. So no, your words backed up with nothing mean nothing. By hoping others pick up the flag for your "patriotism" you should be ashamed of yourself. Any real self respecting patriot would be ashamed.
