Blues, nice try on attempting to get me to defend an assertion I never made in the first place, ergo, "as California goes so goes the nation". In regard to argument, you bear a striking resemblance to the community organizer crowd. You transfer stances and positions by those in power to fellow gun owners in the populace you hold in contempt, and then pretend you have a higher ground.
Are you serious? Saying that,
"eventually there will be nowhere to move and flee to," is really so far off from saying,
"as CA goes, so goes the nation" that you have to accuse me of some kind of subterfuge "community organizer"
tactic?? Good grief, get a freakin' grip on reality!
You appear to be so loyal to your masters that you even refuse to recognize understanding of your plight in CA, and past agreement on a meme that you clearly implied the gist of, even if you didn't repeat the decades-old meme word-for-word. You can't even accept basic agreement based on personal experience unless the person showing it to you doesn't lick the boots of your masters in Sacramento too! You're freakin' insane if you think recounting my thoughts as a young man that CA was pretty much the center of the universe and genesis of every trend or fad or social "norm" across the country until my
personal experience proved otherwise was hypocritical in any way, shape, manner or form.
And believe me, I
pretend nothing. Every ounce of energy I have, every free minute of every day of every week, month and year I can squeeze out of life, I fight for gaining more liberty for every American that they either lost over time for older folks, or were born with for the younger set.
I live by and for the Constitution as a citizen, and do everything I can possibly do to make the governments that serve all of us do the same, and that would include pledging my life, fortunes and sacred honor, two of which I've already given in large measure and whole measure respectively, and will continue until the full measure of the last pledge is realized.
If you've been paying Federal taxes then you're complicit in Fast and Furious, Ruby Ridge, Waco, and any other Federal anti gun anti Constitution action or activity. Starve the beast and skip your 2014 Federal taxes.
My goodness, you're an impudent sort aren't you. You are saying that because the government of the entire country has seen fit to
confiscate our earnings before we even have the chance to abide by the law by filing and paying
only what we owe in taxes, that I should refrain from getting a refund for the
over-payments they
confiscated from us, lest I be a hypocrite? How might I go about denying the
federal government my tax dollars, genius? I am not a hypocrite because the government whose usurpative laws I
oppose every waking second of my life, and even during my nightmares too, takes my ability to withhold my taxes in protest away from me before I ever even see the money,
and they take more than I ever owe so that if I want what my wife and I have
earned we
have to file.
I have to wonder if you even know the first thing about how and why taxes started being taken out of our pay checks, or how and why answering that question would answer, and likely solve, most questions of gun control - or more accurately -
people control. I hesitate to do this because you might accuse me of trying to use "community organizer" tactics again (which I have to wonder if you really know what that means either), but perhaps you have it in you to learn some truth since you brought the subject of federal taxes up, something I have studied and been in the thick of the fight against for decades now. For what's wrong with the 16th Amendment,
go here. For why passage of the 17th Amendment and creation of the Federal Reserve the same year (1913) is the triumvirate of laws that put the final nail in the Constitution's coffin,
go here.
And unless you're willing and able to discuss the
truth about federal taxes knowledgeably and credibly, don't ever call me a hypocrite about the subject again, or if you do, you can
go here to
willingly feed the California beast.
Your higher ground stance is is woefully rife in hypocrisy, and your best point is highlighting SMELT? I live on a 600 acre farm in the California Delta, so by all means lecture me on the challenges faced by California farmers. You're a perfect example of emotion over reason, pride and arrogance over logic.
Good grief, I don't remember the last time I saw a person on this forum get so butt hurt over stuff that wasn't intended as a knock on them personally
at all. I wasn't "lecturing" you about smelt or anything else, I was giving you valid
reasons for why
I consider CA a lost cause, and highlighted the smelt issue only to emphasize my incredulity at how much further
gone it has, well,
gone. I was "lecturing" the tyrants of your government that has put the Delta into the severe state of economic decline that you now get all butt hurt on
behalf of. If
that doesn't prove my point that Californians are thoroughly subjugated into servants of the state, I can't imagine what might!
And you
are a farmer, or you just
live on a farm? Either way, if you're in the San Joaquin Valley working
or just living on a farm, and you don't see the value in starving the beast that is busy trying to starve
you out, as well as the whole freakin' nation, there's no more help for you than there is for the once-great, and once-free, State of California.
