Defiance is courageous

I cannot remember a time I truly just gave up and conformed. As a teen I lived in a neighborhood of aspiring rap artist, I listened to Black Sabbath and became a punk. My mother raised us in Santeria, I became a Pentecostal. When I joined the Air Force I quickly became aware of those that rose through the ranks quickly were the suck ups. I chose to be me in spite of being in uniform. Even when I was a police officer I went against the grain and rebelled against my superiors. I questioned policies. I didn't write all the tickets I could have. I went as far as in 2003 to become the host of a talk show that exposed the police department, this while still a cop. The administration could do nothing. I was one of the public voices of the police union and had legal protection against their retaliation. My whole life has been one of not following the easy path but making my own trail for good or bad I can say I have been my own man.

Since life has prepared me or shaped me to be defiant I feel that I am at the perfect time in history. I look around and see so many of the people in my party and political affiliation just give up. The world compromise is the word of the year for many of them. The have bowed to the Obama monarchy and are falling in line one by one. Conservatives seem to want to save their jobs in Congress rather than stand up for what Conservatives or Libertarians believe. I find it so emasculating to kiss the ring of another man. I do not think of myself as someone of great influence or credibility. What I do think that if I can just influence one of you to stand up to the radical changes that are fundamentally transforming this nation to a Socialist union, I have fulfilled my calling. We have to start having the courage to lose a promotion, to lose a friend, to lose family because the original ideas in our constitution and how they will influence our children's future are worth it.

Look around and listen. Most people who are followers of Obama are even quietly questioning some of his most recent views. Yesterday the AG Eric Holder confirmed as I thought in my previous post "Droned to death", that a US citizen could be killed with a drone strike within the US borders in violation of Posse Comitatis. This administration has now taken the power away from our court system to try an individual for his crime. Habeus Corpus died yesterday. Now if you are suspected of a plot or planning of an act against the US instead of the FBI raiding your home or a traffic stop, a predator drone could launch a hellfire missile while your own your way to pick up your kids at school or while you have your kids, remember though he was a terrorist Al-Sawahiri had his sixteen year old son in his car that was attacked. I don't want to hear oh that was overseas. The United States has a very decent rendition program that has been operating for many years he could have been scooped up by a SEAL team and brought to justice very easily.

If enough of us begin to take a stand even if we begin to suffer we can stop this madness as Bob Woodward called it. This can be as little as writing a letter to an elected official to getting off your ass and getting into office. Just like the Obama machine we need to do some community organizing and unifying our opposition to the new King George. The Tea party, the Libertarians, the Conservatives need to form a new continental congress because I believe that there are many similarities with what is occurring today and the Coercive Acts of 1774. Research that act and leave a comment.
