No civilized person would even think about obeying laws relating to martial law, crushing a sovereign state movement militarily or concentration camps. Those are the general tenets of the Oathkeepers.
And you think leaving it up to this bunch of crazies to decide that a FEMA supply depot is really a concentration camp or that the National Guard doing their weekend training drills is really getting ready to crush the sovereign state and impose martial law. No thanks.
OMG!!!!! Matthews totally tried to DISTORT everything. That was filled of "guilt-by-association" fallacy!! Matthews and that SPLC scum pulled out every BS stop short of bringing up the "KKK" to distort and smear. I have now lost all respect for Matthews. That Oath Keeper should have done a better job calling Matthews out. Matthews kept trying to describe these people as dangerous and violent -- yet the Oath Keeper explained more than once that they are talking about STANDING DOWN, not up. Shame on Matthews, people can see his bias.
Having a modest understanding of the terms of the original compact, and subsequent compacts, I have a genuine distrust of any group or ideology that purports to "support the Constitution", without understanding it.
A. The Constitution is a compact for specific performance. The question is: who's obligated to perform to it? Do the American people perform to it? NO. Its terms are binding on the public servants who swear an oath, and inscribe said oath into the public record. Did the "oath keepers" file an oath?
B. Since the people in America are sovereign, but (c)itizens are subjects, "everyone" can not be born into citizenship. Citizenship has mandatory obligations (jury duty, militia duty, etc) and to impose them, at birth, is involuntary servitude, and unconstitutional. Do "oath keepers" know the difference between sovereign people and subject citizenry? Will they only seek to "govern" those who had given consent?
C. Since Socialism, by definition, abolishes private property (absolute ownership by individuals), and there is no law compelling enrollment into Social Security (national socialism), can any "voluntary" socialist "Oath keeper" be trusted to honor private property rights, as required by the fifth amendment? Are they acting in contradiction to their oath, if they consented to socialism?
D. Usury, the charging of a fee, in money, for the use of money (or extension of credit) is mathematically impossible to pay in a finite money token system and is denounced by all religions (that I checked), and especially denounced as a capital offense (see: Ezekiel 18:13 KJV) in the Judeo - Christian - Islamic law. Can any "oath keeper" with an interest bearing bank account be in compliance with his religious tenets? And if he isn't in good standing, can you trust his oath made before God? Is he an infidel (unfaithful) to his religious affiliation?

Just as you trust government (history has shown trusting one's government to be a losing proposition), I will trust a group of men loyal to the Constitution only.

Heck yeah, we have over 500 of them in DC. Although I wouldn't refer to them as "organized" in a good way.
