Enough citizens did after 1776. Enough citizens can again.

Except weren’t those citizens against a FOREIGN govt with troops that CAME to America? Today the enemies are IN our own govt and they have armies and weapons of mass destruction available not to mention law fare, unjustly arrested, tried and sentenced.

If we were fighting an actual physical war I’d sign up. We are not. We are fighting against liars with tremendous power.

How do we overpower them??

You don't. You leave them to rot.

The only answer, in my humble opinion is independence of individual states, i.e., Nullification of everything federal and Secession from the tyranny of the swamp ...

As far as I know, there are at least 7 states with active secession movements, and probably more to come.

Walking away is the only way, best of luck, friend.

Hi Bandit ... I'm not sure where I saw the list, but if memory serves, the ones I recall are Texas, Alaska, New Hampshire, maybe Tennessee, Louisiana and Florida. I'll keep looking. Best of luck, friend ~~ j ~~

This is not 1776. This is 2024. America is populated with degenerate scum.

Unfortunately, this is not 1776. Our society has degraded beyond measure compared to what we had in 1776.

Don't be downhearted. It only takes a few patriots to effect change. Only about 10% of Americans fought in the American War of Independence, and of course they won. We need to honor their sacrifices before it's too late.

It was more like 1/3, 1/3, 1/3. I appreciate your point. Unfortunately, we live in an era of vastly degraded people.

Yes, I'm not disagreeing with you; but the situation is not hopeless, yet.

Right on Tirion, never give up, never quit, no matter the "nattering nabobs of negativism" ... Sam Adams said it best, "It does not take a majority to prevail but rather a Tireless, Irate Minority keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men."

Best of luck, friend ~~ j ~~

Unfortunately, I’m afraid it is.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree after all!

If you believe that is true then it is true. Whether it was 10% or 33% or 90% of population supportive of Independence there was a part who thought the whole thing folly and hopeless, just as you do now.

Wrong. It does matter what the rough percentages are, and as you should know, that would be a big difference between if it were say 10% or say 90%.

It’s not a matter of it being “folly and hopeless“, it is definitely a matter of understanding the basic aspect of human nature that allows a lot of people to simply accept whatever is going to happen to them. I’m not one of those, but, it is essential that we understand what we’re up against

That was a loooong time ago, in, seemingly, a galaxy far, far away. 😭

Perhaps, but that's no excuse. The human spirit is eternal.
