To The Feds: We Will Not Comply

 

As with the tyranny imposed by King George III on the Colonists  - we have the duty and obligation to tell the tyrants in the Federal Government who are ruling us:

GET LOST

WE WILL NOT COMPLY

We must now as a Free People REFUSE to comply with the dictates of tyranny.

After the SCOTUS rulings this week in Arizona and now ObamaCare, the amount of power this Dictator has amassed for himself and this government to run roughshod over liberty,  makes it clear that our government has become an enemy of the people.  We should have no trust whatsoever in any branch of the Federal Government to either uphold the Constitution or safeguard our God-given inalienable Rights.

This government has made itself God over us, mandating what we can and cannot do with our own property and wealth.  It has punished success and stigmatized independent wealth.  It has grown in malevolence and power to ascribe itself the mandate of telling us who lives and who dies;  Who gets medical care and who does not get medical care;  What one must buy and what one cannot buy; what one can eat and what one is prohibited from eating.  It lifts up sinful abominations with the power of law as good and punishes the people of God who stand for righteousness.  This government has become akin to the biblical Beast in Revelation, having the power to mandate we receive it’s Mark, or we will be deprived of being able to buy or sell – much less live. We must think and act according to the way this government demands – or they will punish us.

It is my contention that complying with this Federal evil in Washington, is abandoning our faith and breaking the First Commandment, for it is clear that this government intends to make itself god over us.

Therefore it is beholden upon us to implement the wisdom as prescribed by the Declaration of Independence:

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

The worry is that this people are grown so accustomed to tyranny and accustomed to Socialism and Marxism that Americans are going to walk themselves into the gas chamber than risk what our forbears did.  Yet our Establishing Document cites the prescription this people must take now if we wish to die free and not slaves of the State:

all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

There isn’t a Republic in history that did not first commit suicide – and ObamaCare and everything this government has done in the last two decades ensures the death of liberty which will give this government absolute power over our lives.

Our course of action is now clear.  We have one last opportunity in November to use the ballot box – but I am become convinced that too is corrupted by this government to reflect the honest will of the people.  We shall see, but I will not be surprised of the outcome, for beastly tyrannies of men will not go quietly once it has amassed this kind of power for itself.

We have a course and model of action  that our Founders left us that Providence and the Almighty had blessed:  Galatians 5:1.  We must now as a Free People REFUSE to comply with the dictates of tyranny.  Our forebears risked death and the loss of everything to establish the liberty God has gifted to us.  Lives, fortunes and honor were placed on the altar of freedom, with few expecting that the cost would not be great in their stand to restore The Sovereign over the tyranny of men.

We must do likewise.  We must not comply.  We must resist.  We must defy this evil government now ruling us.

Given the history and nature of tyranny when a people refuse to bow down to it’s dictates and decrees – it will attempt to do so by force.  When the Colonists refused to buy the tea or pay the taxes demanded of it by the king – he sent the military to force Colonial compliance and subjugate the people.

And this tyranny in government will do likewise.  Such is the nature of men in power.

But let them come and make that last mistake.  They will have made their evil intents of subjugation and worse, known at that point and we shall have the Cause before us to resist with every means available to us.

Live Free or Die.  

It is now our turn to uphold that pledge.

The question becomes, are there enough of us who will risk doing so?

Obama Gives The Rule of Law The Finger After Arizona Ruling

 

In the aftermath of the SCOTUS ruling on Arizona’s immigration law, Obama gives state sovereignty the finger and decrees that the Federal Government will no longer cooperate with Arizona law enforcement and instructs federal agents to ignore requests for processing of illegals caught in the state.  Then Obama’s regime advertised a hotline number that illegals can call when they “spot” abuse by AZ law enforcement to the inJustice Department.

This was an in-our-face giant finger from Obama – who clearly has crowned himself emperor to decide what laws he will recognize and ignore, while imposing his own laws outside of the bounds of the Constitution. Obama has just signaled to the world that Arizona is an open free-for all without any chance of charges being brought to bear on foreign nationals who break the law in that state.

The SCOTUS ruling was insanity itself.  The majority ruled in essence (and Scalia noted in his dissent), that state’s cannot infringe upon Federal  laws in their state and Obama has made it clear that he will not enforce such laws.  The ruling says Arizona MUST defer to the federal government to arrest, detain and prosecute.  However, they wrote that Arizona can continue it’s stop and check provisions of the state law.

So this ruling and Obama’s decree – essentially nullifies state law and state sovereignty.  Arizona can continue to follow their law to stop and check for identification, but nothing can be done about any illegals they find or upon those illegals caught commiting crimes, because Obama just decreed that DHS, ICE and the feds are to ignore any calls from Arizona.

So last week Obama declares blanket Amnesty for illegals along with stating that they will continue to impose ObamaCare even if SCOTUS rules against it or major provisions of it.

Methinks SCOTUS has a leaker to the White House and all of this is pre-emptive for what the Regime has said it will do in the face of the ObamaCare decision.

We have a dictator for president with a nasty temper and zeal for revenge, and a SCOTUS who are nothing more than political hacks for the regime rather than upholders of the Constitution as intended by the Founders.

Homeland Security suspends immigration agreements with Arizona police

The Obama administration said Monday it is suspending existing agreements with Arizona police over enforcement of federal immigration laws, and said it has issued a directive telling federal authorities to decline many of the calls reporting illegal immigrants that the Homeland Security Department may get from Arizona police.

Administration officials, speaking on condition they not be named, told reporters they expect to see an increase in the number of calls they get from Arizona police — but that won’t change President Obama’s decision to limit whom the government actually tries to detain and deport.

“We will not be issuing detainers on individuals unless they clearly meet our defined priorities,” one official said in a telephone briefing.

The official said that despite the increased number of calls, which presumably means more illegal immigrants being reported, theHomeland Security Department is unlikely to detain a significantly higher number of people and won’t be boosting personnel to handle the new calls.

“We do not plan on putting additional staff on the ground in Arizona,” the official said.

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that Arizona may not impose its own penalties for immigration violations, but it said state and local police could check the legal status of those they have reasonable suspicion to believe are in the country illegally.

That means police statewide can immediately begin calling to check immigration status — but federal officials are likely to reject most of those calls.

Federal officials said they’ll still perform the checks as required by law but will respond only when someone has a felony conviction on his or her record. Absent that, ICE will tell the local police to release the person.

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said the court’s decision frees police up to perform immigration checks. In anticipation of the ruling, she issued an executive order calling for guidance to be issued to every police department on how to fairly carry out the law.

“We will move forward, instructing law enforcement to begin practicing what the United States Supreme Court has upheld,” she said.

But the Obama administration is under pressure from immigrant-rights groups to cut down on the number of people it is deporting and has taken a number of steps to try to limit deportations of rank-and-file illegal immigrants and focus instead on those with criminal records or repeated immigration violations.

Last week, Mr. Obama said he would halt deportations for most illegal immigrants under 30 who were brought here as children.

On Monday the administration officials also said they are ending the seven 287(g) task force agreements with Arizona law enforcement officials, which proactively had granted some local police the powers to enforce immigration laws.

I like this bloggers opinion about this whole deal:

Has Obama declared War on Arizona?

Is Arizona on his kill list?

So after the Supreme Court upholds the key element of Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law SB1070 the president attacked Arizona sovereignty again. Obama has told DHS to ignore requests from Arizona law enforcement on immigration status requests. Isn’t this exactly what many Arizonans have been talking about, that our federal government isn’t enforcing immigration law. So basically the federal government is telling the State of Arizona to drop dead and ignore us. Brewer should give him another letter, this one saying that if the federal government is going to ignore immigration law than so are we.  At some point you have to stand up to the bully, make your stand and fight for what you believe in. I now go to the founders for what may be necessary if our federal government continues down this path

The Obama Strategy of Kagan Nomination to SCOTUS

Tyrants often reveal what their intents and plans of action to impose tyranny and oppression upon their targets are, by writing or speaking about them well in advance.

If one wanted to know What Hitler planned to do to the Jews and to Europe , all one had to do was read his little autobiography “Mein Kampf” and listen to his speeches through the late 1920′s and early 1930′s to understand what he intended to do.  The Munich Post understood what he was up to and tried for over a decade to warn Germany what kind of a monster he was going to be.

No one listened and eventually, once Hitler secured total power for himself, went to war to control all information – and executed the editors and writers of the Munich Post in 1933.

Tyrants tend to follow similar blueprints, because they work.

Obama is a Marxist ideologue.  Much of what he has already done he wrote and spoke about in clever subtle language during his campaign and in his two “autobiographies”. Obama has surrounded himself with Marxist ideologues, Maoists, Communists and Socialists. Everything he does, is to advance his Marxist agenda of “fundamentally transforming” the United States of America.

And he has already largely succeeded.

His nationalization and takeover of the banks, GM and Chrysler, Student Loans, the Health Care industry and soon energy and the Cap and Trade scheme – is all part of the game of chess he is playing to transform the nation into a Soviet-style dictatorship.

What does this have to do with the nomination of Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens?

Simple.  She shares Obama’s radical ideology and will help him implement it at the Highest court level in the land.

Like all tyrants, controlling information is vital to keep and sustain a totalitarian regime, because of the lies it lives on to keep their people enslaved, fearful and desperate.  Free speech is a poison to a tyrannical regime.  It is said that one of the main tools used to collapse the Soviet Union was the Fax machine.  For the Communist Dictatorship – it was a death mechanism of their rule because the winds of free speech and ideas broke out of their iron grip.

For Obama, the Internet, Talk Radio and various mass communication networks and devices are a huge problem he seeks to control and regulate.  In his mind, technology – like speech should only be allowed if it serves the State, and disallowed if it is a risk to the State.

I find it interesting that Obama’s commencement address to graduates at Virginia’s Hampton University on Sunday – bemoaned technology and information that he felt was wasteful and not being used for proper political purposes.  In short, ultimately – what Obama was talking about, was free speech and the ability to disseminate information that he does not like and does not contain value he respects.

I think his words on Sunday to Hampton University Graduates is a window into the soul of reason why he picked Solicitor General Elena Kagan to be on the Supreme Court.

“You’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don’t always rank all that high on the truth meter,” Obama said at Hampton University, Virginia.

“With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations, — none of which I know how to work — information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation,” Obama said.

He bemoaned the fact that “some of the craziest claims can quickly claim traction,” in the clamor of certain blogs and talk radio outlets.

“All of this is not only putting new pressures on you, it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy.”

Of course, we can be sure that the Soviet masters thought the same thing of Fax machines and free speech in the Soviet Union.

You see, Obama does not see value in free speech unless it serves the greater values of the State.  He chides us for using technology and information to entertain ourselves, rather than use it as a political tool to further the values of the state.  Values such as Social Justice and Minority Empowerment.  Obama’s civilian security force if you will.

Which brings me back to Obama’s nomination of Kagan to SCOTUS.

The Washington Examiner reports this interesting statement signed by Kagan in United States v Stevens:

“Whether a given category of speech enjoys First Amendment protection depends upon a categorical balancing of the value of the speech against its societal costs.”

Isn’t that peachy?  

Considering that Obama is nothing more than an academic with no practical experience – it’s elementary he would nominate another academic with little practical experience.  Because experience is not what counts in the eyes of an ideologue.  It’s the ideological agenda that matters.

And controlling information and speech by deciding the cost benefit to society versus the value the State assigns to any speech is the ultimate goal here.  I think Obama’s remarks at Hampton with the nomination of Kagen are quite revealing in what his intentions are regarding speech and information.

Notwithstanding how Kagen will vote when the various state lawsuits against ObamaCare come to SCOTUS for challenge.

I’m sure in that case, the societal costs will be deemed to outweigh the Constitution.  The smooth-as-Ken-doll Republicans in the Senate would be wise if during confirmation they asked Kagen what her view was concerning whether or not it is Constitutional for the state to demand private citizens purchase insurance they may not want in order to live without penalty.

But I’m not holding my breath for the Senate GOP to turn tables and do what the Democrats did with the Court Nominees of the previous administration. 

And this is how societies succumb to tyrants and maniacs.  They do not consider what the intentions of the tyrant are based on what they have said, what they wrote or what they do.

Untold misery and death always follow such paths.
