We know the feds have backed down and that's good. But it's only because patriots came to the defense of Clive Bundy and his family. Go back to the video. Pay attention when they pan the crowd: old folks, young folks, parents, scouts.... These are the salt of the earth kind of people, farmers and ranchers...you know the ones derided by Obama as "clinging to their guns and their Bibles." But this man's eloquence reminds me of Patrick Henry against the tyranny of another age:
Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace²but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! [Read his complete speech here.]This is our heritage! May we not squander it in exchange for a bowl of pottage! Pray for all those persecuted by our out-of-control Empire of evil. I don't say that lightly. The U.S. government mandates evil, exports evil, and many of our politicians and cultural leaders are committed to evil (usually in the pursuit of power, pleasure, and plunder). Pray and fight. And don't forget that our most powerful weapons are spiritual!
