YUP, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness and all the rights guaranteed by our Constition and Bill Of Rights.

You are entitled to the same things,
though it sounds like you don't feel you are.

So sad. People like you seem to feel you are not deserving of the freedom that so many have died to defend.

There are options out there for you, if the freedom you are entitled to here does not appeal to you. Many countries will happily deny you these things....might want to move to one of them.

This is what it's come to.

"A tea party witness from Alabama launched into emotional testimony Tuesday as she described her group’s political abuse at the hands of the Internal Revenue Service.

“We peacefully assemble. We petition our government. We exercise the right to free speech. And we don’t understand why the government tried to stop us,” Wetumpka Tea Party President Becky Gerritson said during her opening statement before the House Ways and Means Committee.

“I’m not here at as a serf or a vassal,” she went on, beginning to choke up. “I’m not begging my lords for mercy. I’m a born-free American woman, wife, mother and citizen.”

“And I’m telling my government that you’ve forgotten your place. It’s not your responsibility to look out for my well-being and to monitor my speech. It’s not your right to assert an agenda. Your post, the post that you occupy exists to preserve American liberty. You’ve sworn to perform that duty. And you have faltered,” Gerritson said."

It's worth remembering the text of the Declaration of Independence:

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly 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."
 Quoting: TheOriginalMind


Wow...just wow. Amazing speech, great find OP. 5*

Now this is what we need for true change, not violence. More activists that speak rationally, do lawfully what needs to be done to let your view be known to the government. The only way they know one does not approve is if that person lets it be known in a rational logical and heartfelt way.
 Quoting: Heavenly Alchemy


As government oppression gets worse we'll see more people like this making a stand. With that will rise the emotional aspect that has been lacking in the liberty movement. After that, we'll see. But for now, we need to spread this sort of video far and wide.

As if anyone cares. The IRS is an enforcement and collection arm of the Fed, and only works for them.

Coincidence that they dont play by any rules of their own or let anyone see what goes on behind the curtain?

Well sugar muffin, let me explain it to you.

You were not upset at your government when they started the War on those who partake of the seed bearing herb...

You were not upset when your government started a war in foreign lands for their natural resources...

You were not upset when your government started a war against the poor in your nation...

You rejoiced in these things.

You are only upset because now YOU are the only one left your government has to declare war on.



So deal with it.

In your snarky smugness, you try to come across as so far above everyone else that nobody dares question you. However, anyone who understands history can see right through you. You are a fucking moron.

NWO likes to keep the "conservative vs. liberal" debate stoked. Anger and blame are the best distractions possible.

When stories like the IRS targeting, AP/James Rosen spygate, etc. come out, most people never stop to ask "why are we selectively hearing THIS line of stories out of the lamestream media, and why now?

Wake up sheeple - it's all BS - just from the "rightwing" side of the same trough of disinformation.

Yeah, she wants to be able to sneak around, peek in peoples homes and charge them with crimes THEY invented (depriving them of THEIR happiness) and TAKE their money because of it...they are only interested in liberty for themselves...liberty to rob and pillage other people.

and then flash their skull and bones gang symbol. Why? Apparently because they look down on the people they have robbed, who are now so broke they are scrapping their bowl...seeking that last little bit of "happy weed".

What makes them happy is depriving others of their happiness.
