My first allegiance is to The Constitution of the United States

american_sym My first allegiance is to The Constitution of the United States; my first duty is to protect it from all enemies, foreign and domestic; and my vow of obedience to the President of the United States expired in Jan 2002

Therefore, I stand today opposed to my President, and the anti-American, UN-Constitutional, unpatriotic Administration for which he serves as figurehead. I will do my part to voice my opposition, educate the populace, diligently support my political causes, and work with others to restore American freedoms to their former glory.

As a soldier, I made a promise. As a veteran, I will carry that promise with me to the end of my days.

The idiots need to read their oath AND the Constitution again, and this time have someone explain them as they read. They don’t seem to understand on their own.

Anonymous. I do not believe the people that are supporting the current President are so much traitors as misinformed. I also believe it is up to us to inform them of there erroneous thinking.

Inform them or threaten them? I read a lot comments on here which seem to suggest violence. And I have to imagine that some of it will be directed at the “traitors” who support the current administration.

Site Dedication

This site is dedicated to the memory of John William Adams (1925-2006), Marine and Oath Keeper extraordinaire.

John Adams, at the age of 16, lied about his age to join the Marines so he could fight against Imperial Japan in the Pacific. His enlistment date was December 10, 1941, just three days after the attack on Pearl Harbor (see below). As a Marine rifleman, he fought the Japanese from island to island, across the pacific, including at Iwo Jima. We may have good men, but we never had better.

Until his death in 2006, he was a dedicated patriot who still took his oath to defend the Republic deadly serious. May God grant you the courage to do likewise.
