However, when it comes to the issues we find ourselves facing as a nation, I find myself standing on a knifes edge. No matter which way you look, to the left or to the right, there is someone waiting to snatch away your personal freedoms to increase thier own wealth and power.

I do not believe in totalitarian socialism, whereby all transactions in our ecomomy are regulated by government agencys. That can only lead to absolute disaster.

I do happen to believe in universal healthcare. If our society is to progress and flourish we must provide all people of all economic situations the abillity to contribute to our society in a positive way.

This means providing healthcare, education (to the ph.d. level), and justice (as outlined by the constitution) as a function of that society. At no cost to the individual. So that more people can end up in a lab working on the next best thing instead of in a prison living on our tax dollars anyway.

But the party that stands for those things also stands for this video. Just as the Republicans would take away the greatest tool of free speech in history (the internet) through backroom international deals (ACTA) so would the Democrates press us against the fulcrum of political correctness in an attempt to silence thier detractors.

Just as Republicans will pass unconstitutional laws that allow for the creation of a fascist police state, so would the Democrates control our economy and our welfare through totalitarian socialism.

The right thinks you should give all of your money to the corporate elite, while making a slaves wage. The left thinks you should give all of your money to the government. Both sides think you should be striped of your first, third, and fourth ammendment rights.

All of them are on the take from corporations with special interests making laws instead of better products (where is your free market now?).

And I have no idea who to back without breaking my oath.

But I can understand how government property (school grounds) can not be used to send a political message. In my opinion, a government allowing that would be fascist.

We are not playing a game, we are going to defend our nation and our way of life against domestic enimies even if its our own government.

1. Tell us how to avoid police confrontations.
2. What can we do like at Pittsberg when trapped by police reacting to Mob Dynamics?
3. How can we assert ourselves when confonted by the police at a meeting who is exceeding his authoriety.

Stop telling us that you will not follow ten orders, we are beyond that. How do we remain civil, passive, yet assert our constitutional rights. Please advise us.

Leftist protesters always have a lawyer with them when they protest and expect police to confront them. Its is easy to spot their lawyer, they look like lawyers and stand out.

When planning to protest, march, or appear at a town hall meeting, make sure there are cameras recording every minute. If possible, hire a lawyer or get a volunteer lawyer to be with you. The Police will be on their best behavior if a lawyer is present because they know in a court the police do not stand a chance against a lawyer. The police can always explain away a video but will have a hard time explaining away a Member-of-the-Bar.

In New Orleans during and after Hurricane Katrina while people were in need of help, medical care, food, water and evacuation, the New Orleans Police Department carried out a house-to-house and traffic stops taking legally owned guns from people. Later courts declared they acted illegally and to return the confiscated firearms but that was never done. They were only following orders.

President Bush — almost sounding like former Speaker Newt Gingrich — pushed for offshore oil drilling on America’s Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) yesterday, urging Congress to lift the legislative ban on exploration in that area.

As the nation’s gas prices skyrocketed again this week — in some places up to $4.30/gallon — Democrats’ opposition to in-country drilling faces heavy criticism.

Bush said his administration has “repeatedly called on Congress to expand domestic oil production” but “Democrats on Capitol Hill have rejected virtually every proposal.”

Offshore drilling, banned under a 1981 federal moratorium, could produce years of sufficient oil production. But the practice is frowned on by environmentalists even though recent technological advances make it possible to drill without harming the natural environments.

“With these advances — and a dramatic increase in oil prices — congressional restrictions on OCS exploration have become outdated and counterproductive,” said Bush.

To the other Oath Keepers, I am sorry to deviate from the original subject of discussion, I just don’t like being called stupid by a less educated person.

If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.

That is the probelm in the war that Bush created. They all own guns and we are on their grounds. Its a no win situation. Obama is talking about withdrawing troops. Good, we need to. We are not going to win that war. Lets build up our defenses here, put embargos on their country, grow independent from foriegn oil and move one in life. But you guys are not focused on solving the problem. Your focused on raising hell crying about it. Do something to benefit this country istead of calling the Waaaambulance.

Its funny to read all the comments from cops on here and then look at the board members. lol

Cops, haha, what do you need to become one, a highg school diploma? yeah thats what I thought. The blind leading the blind. Get an education people. Benefit society don’t bring it down.
