All of that is against us. When do we turn and fight? I don't mean taking out a few thousand here and there, I already do that with my men. Think much bigger.

Well that is a difficult thing to contemplate. One of my ancestors was John Brown abolitionist, I am very proud of his fight against slavery and he did free 1000’s w the Underground Railroad and he fought off the spread of slavery into some states BUT he went bigger he raided a federal building to try to arm slaves and lead a revolt- he was betrayed (by someone on the inside) and then many of his men were killed and he and his sons were captured, tried and hung. They called him crazy for a hundred years , most people of his day did not understand why it was so important to fight slavery. But ultimately he was ok with sacrificing his life for that cause... what lessons can be learned? Be careful who you trust, sometimes smaller acts make a big deal, he won some battles with some boldness but ultimately you can’t force people to be ready to fight before they are ready.... the civil war came, he is credited as helping to “spark” it. Sometimes the really big things can need too many people and it’s a risk (you think there is safety in a group but he did just fine with his family, it was when he went big -going into the slavery stronghold , going after federal weapons- then he got caught). I was impressed with the truckers in Canada, they kept it peaceful. That really pissed the powers that be off. So I don’t know if or when certain moves should be made. It might make more sense to try to get through in states like Florida and Texas, where they can grasp the concepts. In places like California or New York, I think you have to tailor your message to what they are capable of grasping. Use the law where you can and don’t expect to change people’s minds if they aren’t ready for it, but you can plant seeds, give them the easiest to grasp concept (like just mentioning “I know people think vaccines are safe but I do have friends that are vaccine injured, so I personally can’t just accept “safe” as the complete story, and because of this I don’t think it should be mandated.)

I don't accept that vaxes have any credibility. On day one I told a few friends that the truckers while very noble in their cause would fail. Why? They would really have to change the system, not get lies like the mandates are rescinded. The next day things can change and they did. Presently I have a group of 60 I would put my life in. I'm doing some work that they may know about or may not. I've started taking care of the WHO and the WEF, only 6 so far but it's something.
