Is It Time For A Revolution?

Has America turned into a dictatorship? Ask any left-winger and they’ll tell you that George Bush is as bad as Hitler. I may tend to agree with them, for some different reasons. It’s not all about “evil Republicans,” but rather evil people who do not care about The People.

The illegal immigration crisis has come to a head during the Bush administration. It was been rapidly building since before the1986 Reagan Amnesty, when illegals learned they could break the law and still get off scot-free. Given the fact that hordes of them have poured into America in ever-increasing numbers, that they have become very vocal in demonstrating for rights to which they are not entitled, it’s clear that amnesty sent them the wrong message.

People in Mexico and in other countries get word of what goes on in America. Perhaps they cannot speak the language of our country, but they listen when their media repeats what is said, and they have the gossip-tree to inform them. They certainly listened every time GWB said the word “amnesty,” as the numbers crossing measured by the Border Patrol went up 50%. I know a Minuteman who stands by the barbed-wire fence yelling, “No hay amnestia—Bush lied to you!” There is no amnesty—YET.

While it appears that the House and Senate will be deadlocked on immigration “reform” bills, and there will be no legislation before the end of this year, most Americans are left wondering why the government just cannot enforce the laws we already have. We have no lack of resources or money; if we can send our military reserves and our national guard over to Iraq, can’t we at least keep them here more cheaply and use them to assist in maintaining United States’ sovereignty?

I have been asked repeatedly by reporters what I mean by sovereignty. I have asked them in return if they went to college and took journalism classes and if they knew how to use a dictionary. But let’s get this clear once and for all: sovereignty is government free from external control. This means government for the people, of the people, and by the people, and free from the external control of a foreign nation. It is supremacy of authority or rule as exercised by a sovereign state; in other words, complete independence and self-government. To me, it’s the right of indigenous people to control their own territory. It’s the national equivalent to supremacy over one’s own body. Anyone who has been born in the United States to parents who were citizens is a person indigenous to the United States. I say this in spite of the fact that Native Americans existed here before the Europeans came; since they migrated here as well, I think the only distinction between them and the Europeans was the timeline as to when each group arrived.

As a freedom-loving American, I support the rights of all indigenous peoples to self-determination, which is the right to control your own territory. While 80% of American citizens say they dislike illegal immigration, it seems we are saddled with a globalist government that is completely out of our control; a government that persists in giving away America to foreign nations, a government that allows foreign nations to shape and mold our immigration, foreign, and domestic policies.

When was the last time an out-of-control government was overthrown by the American people? It seems it was in 1776 when American colonists declared their independence from Great Britain. Let’s take a look at the reasons why, from the Declaration of Independence:

The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome andnecessary for the public good. He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for thetenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of theirsalaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out theirsubstance. For imposing taxes on us without our consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial byjury: [This very thing happened to Chris Simcox and is now happening to Roy Warden]

For altering fundamentally the forms of ourgovernments: He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us; [not protecting us from invasion—Article 4, Section 4, U.S. Constitution]

He has...destroyed the lives of our people. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the [illegal aliens], whose known rule of warfare, is undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. [Considering the latest victim of Hispanic racial hatred, as well as previous ones, it's obvious that they prey on women and the elderly. See borderguardians.org]

And what have American citizens done to stop these usurpations? Read these words and see if they don’t sound familiar:

In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Have we not been petitioning for redress of our grievances by writing, calling, and emailing our elected representatives and our President and asking for a comprehensive, thorough and effective enforcement of our immigration laws? We have been met with phony promises, smoke and mirrors, and lectures that we don’t understand what’s best. I know people who have been working on illegal immigration reform who have been at it for 20 years, and what is the result? Have things gotten better or worse?

It’s estimated that over 1 million illegals have entered America every year in the last 10 years, and 4,000 PER DAY come through Arizona, which translates to 1.5 million every year just through Arizona alone! The flood of illegals has only gotten worse since NAFTA was passed in 1994. I wonder, WHO has benefited by the passage of NAFTA? Based on history, it is not any working person in the United States, and it certainly hasn’t benefited the workers of Mexico.

Last year, CAFTA, a smaller version of NAFTA, was passed against the protest of the majority of Americans. Will we wait until FTAA, the mother of all bad trade agreements, is passed, before we rise up and say NO MORE?

Americans have suffered repeated abuses by our Congress and our President. In the Constitution, the 3 branches of government were created to balance each other, and it appears to me that they have turned against the people and are all corrupted. While the judiciary worries over peripheral issues such as whether or not we should have the 10 Commandments in courthouses, illegal aliens are sucking away the life blood of America and clamoring for citizen’s rights when they broke the law to get in here!

And we don’t think it’s time for a revolution? As the Declaration continues:“...all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.” How long will we wait? Will you, my fellow patriots wait until every firearm in the United States has been outlawed, or until globalization has reduced you to such poverty that you cannot afford to buy any ammo for the one gun you have been allowed to keep? What will it take for America to rise up and recreate herself anew? Will deprivation of drugs, booze, TV, and football do it? I wonder...

Do we continue blaming illegal aliens for taking advantage, by hook or by crook, of free welfare, free medical care, and a free ride in America, when we Americans have been done in by our own government which is no longer responsive to the will of the people? This is not a partisan issue, as the Democratic party talks out of both sides of its mouth while it pretends to be the champion of the working class! Both parties are in this together!

To quote an oft-spoken phrase: It’s the government, stupid! The illegal alien problem is only the tip of the iceberg of government complicity in the economic neutering of America. Once we were a great manufacturing nation; once our working class held jobs which paid a middle-class wage. Slowly, at first, jobs went to foreign nations; then foreigners were imported to do jobs Americans would do, but for which they wanted a living wage; now we are being fed the myth that illegals only do jobs Americans won’t do, when the truth is employers only want to hire people who will work for slave wages. Our pretty new houses are falling apart because they were built by illiterates who cannot take directions and who do not speak our language! The assurances that all is well coming from government bureaucrats, our chief executive and congress critters are, to quote Shakespeare: tales told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Fellow patriots, I ask of you, will you join with me in mutually pledging to each other “our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor?”Can we do this while America is a distinct and separate nation? If we wait until America is a polyglotted, multi-cutural Tower of Babel, we will be losers. Start the revolution now!
