Beautifully put, spot on. Totally correct. Far too many Americans either don’t know about their unalienable rights and even worse many who do know don’t care.
And even worse yet, they don't know what to do about it when those rights are abridged. Most people have no clue. They think getting a lawyer is the solution. Well, what if you can't find a lawyer willing to take your case (lawyers DO have the right to refuse, you know, especially when they don't see any personal benefit to exerting themselves on your behalf. Or they don't see your case as winnable)? Lawyers also cost. Please do not tell me about Legal Aid unless you yourself or someone close to you has used Legal Aid. Most people who say "just go to Legal Aid" have never done so. They have no clue as to how difficult and time-consuming it can be just to make contact with a Legal Aid lawyer. Ask all the people who are sitting in prison, even on death row, who were forced to rely on a court-appointed lawyer. It is very true that you do get what you pay for, and while there are pro-bono attorneys who will go the extra mile for their clients they are extremely rare and most likely overburdened. So "getting a lawyer" depends very much upon your state in life. There are people who take the legal system for granted because they've either never had to turn to it, or they are in a financial situation where they can take a lot of things for granted--until they can't. Then they are at a loss because everything that used to work for them doesn't anymore.
Yes, TAM...Add to everything you've laid out here lawyers educated away from natural or unalienable rights, and one can find himself up a creek even if you get yourself a "lawyer."
Yup. Legal aid is marginal to terrible and even relatively simple legal matters like when a person is charged with a given crime or crimes for things as complex and convoluted is this you really need legal groups or these foundations that sometimes take these things. Of course, the problem with that is the response time is quite long under the best of circumstances it could be years before, you get the resolution in your favor assuming it even comes out in your favor. Bring up an interesting question as to how do we effectively deal with this sort of tyranny that comes across in a sense we could call it “bullying”. Sometimes it works to just say no, to push back, refused to do something , but then you do run a very real risk of losing a job even being arrested. Hopefully more of us are more aware now, and at least a larger number may be more prepared to push back in a meaningful fashion, especially in a concerted fashion, where there’s a multiplicity of people participating. in the end, they really can’t arrest us all…
If you want to talk about resistance you should study Native American resistance to white colonization. "They really can't arrest us all"--yes, they can! It's called a reservation. The US Army had absolutely no problem whatsoever massacring entire villages down to the infants. They had absolutely no problem whatsoever destroying Native American food supplies, particularly the bison. And the government had absolutely no problem whatsoever taking Native children away from their homes and sending them to remote boarding schools in order to "kill the Indian" in them. It was a calculated attempt at spiritual and physical genocide and it very nearly succeeded. We (non-Natives) took the land and we kept the land, we took the wealth and we kept the wealth, and I do not see us giving any of this back despite all the noble and woke statements about being on aboriginal land.
I know. Absolutely horrific. I read "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" the summer of my 15th year. I could not believe what I was reading. As I read the heart-wrenching ending of the book, I simply blubbered. I could hardly believe the abject cruelty.
I have also said too many times to count that this nation also put people in "concentration camps," except we called them "reservations." This "great" nation also ordered Americans of Japanese descent out of their homes, out of their jobs and businesses and into internment camps during WWII.
Are "the people" of today any better? Based on what I've seen, I'd have to say no.
The reservation approach wow plausible is not very likely in my opinion for multiple number of reasons first of all we’re much more intertwined as a society than we were back in the col colonial era the western expansion era. Another substantial difference is that the level of technical capability between the two societies was quite great and very, pronounced, and in favor of what we call “Americans“. That’s much less so the case today than it was then, in fact, we seen more and more people becoming aware of what’s really happening to us as a society and many of those people who are becoming aware and I’m starting to react some of our most competent people in our society so we have those things going for us that weren’t necessarily at that time. so though, I do agree that one option would simply be too call and heard us into reservations for lack of a better word
Maybe our time would be better spent educating Americans about our unalienable rights and how we’ve been conditioned to think backward or opposite the truth. Just like they are working overtime to brainwash us into thinking and saying America is a democracy rather than a Constitutional Republic.
THEY work for US. Not the other way around. Most Americans think we are subject to the criminals in positions of power. We don’t take orders from them. They take them from US. Once Americans understand that and start acting like the ones in charge….it’d be a game changer.
And we need to start educating Americans NOW how to protect those rights and how to protect ourselves when those rights are taken away. Because the truth is, unless you have the power/authority to stand up to those criminals, and to MAKE them heed you, you aren't going to get anywhere. Ask the January 6 protesters how well things turned out for them, hmm? Did any of them think before leaving home that they might not return home that night or for a very long time? It's easy to talk a big talk. But how many here on this forum are prepared to spend an unknown period of time in jail awaiting a trial that may or may not come? Bills don't stop once you are arrested. We are not talking about the financial price these people and their families are already paying. Jobs lost, homes possibly foreclosed on, vehicles repossessed, evictions, bankruptcy--if you and your family can suddenly go without any income for a year or more at a time, go for it. The rest of us I think have good reason to be cautious. Because the truth is WE DON'T HAVE POWER.
Ask the Cherokees about that. They were once a prosperous nation in North Georgia and the Smoky Mountains. They had their own court system, their own government. When the State of Georgia, backed by Andrew Jackson's administration, said that they wanted to deport the Cherokees and other Native American tribes to Oklahoma, the Cherokees turned to the United States Supreme Court. Are you listening? They chose to use OUR system. And the Supreme Court agreed with them that they had a right to stay in North Georgia. But as Andrew Jackson said, "the court has made its decision, now let them enforce it." To make a long story short, the Cherokees were told shortly afterwards they had two years to get off their land and go west. Some did; many did not. Two years later United States soldiers surrounded each and every Cherokee homestead and told the residents, "You have ONE HOUR to pack what you need." And they marched the Cherokees off at gunpoint. Perhaps some homesteads fought back but in the end it didn't matter. It also didn't matter to the tribes who chose to fight back; they too were defeated. Ask Osceola, ask Chief Joseph, ask Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, who really holds the power in this land.
I agree. J6ers are the perfect example for today. Most of us don’t know how to enforce “they work for us”. I know what is right, but don’t know how we get there.
100%, Sunnydaze. That sense of un-A-LEEN-able rights (as the men who wrote the Declaration would have pronounced it) -- from our Creator -- has been educated and bred out of the people of this country. That's why I've made that snarky comment -- that the country's got a lot of people in it, but very few Americans.
And, millions more believe politics and politicians are going to save them, and save The System to which they are enslaved. While the cost to exclaiming, "No! I do not comply nor consent and will not acquiesce to my own enslavement.", has caused and will continue to cause consequences, we must stand our ground. I will not relinquish my God given Freedoms to any human authoritarian psychopaths. My personal call for mass resistance is not made from selfishness, it is a battle cry for our defenseless grandchildren who have already been terrorized by The Beast System, and harmed by fear porn and injection(s). War is not the answer but we must resist with non-compliance. Last week I wrote and published my first ever Substack. It is a prayer more than anything. I hope you will find something in it worthy of the reading. God Bless you in all your endeavors in the name of our inalienable Freedom!
Oh my! Thank you so much for your kind response , compliment and encouragement!!
All my best to you and your husband. I have been following your posts for a while and of course will continue to do so, particularly now knowing the things we share in common.
Btw - is the 'rider and sunset' photo one you took? I really like that display of Freedom. If you could? please share the origins of it. Thanks again so much. JW
You're welcome! :) And thank you. I appreciate that.
I love that photo, but I did not take it. It just "feels" like me and I thought it perfect as my "emblem," if you will. I found it on iStock and I actually paid the license fee for its usage across social media and elsewhere. (For example, I could make business cards or even note cards using the image.) I forget how much I paid, but reasonable enough where I just closed my eyes and made the purchase. I wanted that image and the freedom (pardon the pun) to use it. :)
I am developing a simple line of products centered on the themes of 4GETWAR and FREEDOM. I am hoping to have the website up and running soon. Thank you for telling me about how you acquired usage of that illustration. In the meantime I also sent you a DM with info and quick story about being onboard ship back in the day and Seal Team encounter.
"In fact, I’d argue that most do not know what they are, so they cannot know — or care — when the State and its enforcers (men and women in blue) violate them." 100%. I agree. Our "fellow Americans" are absolutely clueless and are, obviously, easily led to do unthinkable things to their fellow man. I have mentioned "The Indoctrinated Brain" before - the book is key ( or the Tucker Carlson interview of the author ) to understanding the real purpose of the spike protein - the erasing of a person's autobiographical memory; the spike protein, coupled with a campaign of fear, literally turns people into system 1 thinking type zombies. ( See the book, "Thinking Fast & Thinking Slow ). We are camping in Maine for the summer - the differences in people's behavior is obvious. I also suggest following Walter Chesnut on Substack - either infection OR transfection ( via gene-therapy shit-shot ) can harm people. Protect yourselves from the spike protein. Walter's Friday Hope series is excellent - ways to protect yourselves from the spike protein. Thanks SheThinksLiberty! Peace.
100% spot on my friend!!!! All that participated.....forced those mandates broke the law and most of our citizens willfully gave away their rights! The Mendacious Midget sounded the loudspeaker and our citizens went in droves like zombies. :-(
Thank you, my friend! There you are. Haven't seen you around the LinkedIn hood lately. I was starting to get a little worried...:)
It's easy to point a finger at "the" bad guy. It's much harder to look in the mirror and evaluate how one aided and abetted -- and millions of "Americans" did.
Yeah I took a breather from LI. I felt I was getting close to possibly another/final strike with my posts so I self-medicated and backed off for about almost 3 weeks. I needed to wind down and recharge my thinking. lol
You are so very right and millions upon millions were puppeteers in this scam but never took responsibility or accountability for any of it.
My philosophy is simply this: I do not believe that there is any such thing as inalienable rights. All rights are alienable. Which means that they can be taken away by anyone who has the ability to do so.
One of the most useless sayings is "they can't do that." If "they" have already done it, then yes, "they" can do that. If you have no way of preventing "them" from doing that, then yes, "they" can do that. It is that simple. There is no one coming to the rescue, no magic piece of paper. The only time when "they" can't do that is if there is something more physically powerful standing in the way. If your opponent won't respect the Constitution and you have no means of making them do so, then sorry, you will have to find another way or bow to the inevitable. It really is a might makes right world when you come right down to it. The only thing that changes is who has the might and who does not. And most of us do not. As Benjamin the Donkey said in Animal Farm, "life goes on regardless--badly." He knew that as a donkey he was fated for one thing only and that was to work hard no matter who was running the farm.
Now I live in an area where there are a lot of Amish and one thing that nearly everyone says about the Amish is how self-sufficient they are. It's true, they live off-grid and don't participate much in greater society. However, the Amish are not as self-sufficient as people like to say they are. They must depend on outsiders to plead their case when there is a conflict between their beliefs and the rest of society. There is a reason you find them in some places and not others. They require mostly rural areas where others are more willing to accommodate their ways due to fewer regulations. You don't want Amish moving into your area? Just make it impossible for them to follow their way of life by changing zoning regulations, restricting the use of buggies on public roads and at businesses, requiring indoor plumbing instead of privies. Believe me, it can be done. I live in a mobile home park and there are regulations up the wazoo. Recently our finest officers in blue were spotted driving around, stopping at people's yards and measuring how long the grass was with a ruler. More than six inches and you get fined. Oh, but they can't do that? They can't? Go talk to the village council and see how far you get. Talk to park management and see how far you get. I'm sure those of you who live in places with an HOA can tell similar stories. How do you fight it? What battles do you pick?
Beautifully put, spot on. Totally correct. Far too many Americans either don’t know about their unalienable rights and even worse many who do know don’t care.
There is absolutely nothing I would add to this!
And even worse yet, they don't know what to do about it when those rights are abridged. Most people have no clue. They think getting a lawyer is the solution. Well, what if you can't find a lawyer willing to take your case (lawyers DO have the right to refuse, you know, especially when they don't see any personal benefit to exerting themselves on your behalf.

Thank you very much for pointing me to your Substack and this post. So well done! Talent right there.
Married I am to a Navy SEAL who deployed during the Viet Nam debacle. You two sound very similar in your views toward this horror show we call war...
Good luck with your 'Stack! Keep writing!

Well said, SadieJay. 💯The sooner we recognize our role in solving this mess - and our complicity in creating it, the better. Thank you.
Love the nickname! LOL I wouldn't be so KIND, tho! Anyway, good stuff, as usual. xo
