This article ran in my local MSM newspaper!! Talks about blow back, NDAA, and the gov't USING GUN CONTROL to turn on citizens!
Due to board rules, I can't link directly to the newspaper itself but it looks like it's starting to be picked up elsewhere. I'm referencing Ammoland. This actually ran over the weekend in a newspaper based out of Hanover, Pennsylvania. Here is a part:


So what is American Caesarism? It is when the political class:

- Treats peaceable citizens as suspects of crime (Patriot Act, TSA, NDAA, etc.)
- Plunders the citizens’ wealth by devaluing their savings via expansion of the money supply (inflation.) Thinkers ranging from Jefferson to Lenin wrote about this form of stealth robbery. Lenin was in favor of it. This is stealing, and the net results are no different than the forceable taking of ones valuables. Quantitative Easing makes the middle class poorer – especially seniors living off their savings.
- Repeatedly wages undeclared wars outside of our own borders, on other peoples’ lands (their property), which causes violent “blow back” (a CIA term.) In his farewell address, Dwight Eisenhower warned of the dangerous influences of the military-industrial complex. Aggressive wars make Americans materially poorer and less safe, while enriching politicians and their favored donors.
- Makes a mockery of free markets by passing and signing unreadable, incomprehensible bills which were actually written by industry lobbyists. Housing, education, and health care are now unaffordable because Congress literally lets the banking and health care industries write their own legislation.
- Allows an entrenched Robber Baron class, which is not “one percent” but actually a tenth of that, to fund both “sides” of national elections.
- Deliberately creates a Moocher class, which is nowhere near 47 percent, in order to secure party votes.
- Allowed the national debt to continually grow at a faster rate than GDP, and then claiming that net output is growing. (See Karl Denninger’s book Leverage, and his website www.market-ticker.org.) The U.S. economy has not grown based on the reinvestment of real surplus capital (savings) since before 1980. It is impossible for sustainable wealth creation to occur based on the emission of unbacked credit. What happened in 2008 was an economic prequake.
- That which cannot go on forever, won’t. History tells us that an entrenched political class will not just give up their power willingly. It is entirely possible they will turn on the citizenry, just as they did in modern democratic states like Spain, France, and Germany.

Yes, and you know it's interesting...where I am is part of the "Pennsyltucky" part. There's a little gun store near me that's WAAAY back into the woods, and I guess my husband went there about 3 weeks back over the weekend and it was so packed he could not purchase anything. It was impossible, this store had so many people in it buying weapons he just could not be served. Where are you at again, I think you're north of me? I'm wondering what the vibe of your area is. I know the guy I talked to at the local Walmart in the sporting goods section said he's seeing a lot of people expressing a sentiment similar to the article of basic mistrust in the government. He's had so many similar conversations with people that it was shocking.

You know, I don't know much about guns as I don't touch my husband's and I saw, for the first time, one of those magazine clips a few days ago when we went to the gun store. My husband held it up and said "Do you know what this is?" I said "It looks like one of the kids' pieces of car track." lol Thanks for posting that though, because I'm sure things are becoming more difficult to find.

That a pretty concise list of what's happening...

Several Presidents have warned about this, but Eisenhower being the most correct due to timing, this current apparatus (the Military Industrial/Banking Complex) grew up in the USA after WWII, and it's been running the world every since Bretton Woods...

Good thread. thumbs

History is repeating itself.
"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787
