Government Of The People

 Notice how the president is not calling up a militia in the face of the grave troubles now coming to boil in Minnesota; nor is anyone else in "government".

I make no judgment on this fact as to cause or intention, yet I cannot help but wonder why it is so, for the possible reasons are several fold.

Because of the way utter failure has increasingly progressed by "government" in America over the past umpteen decades, one can only wonder whether this is yet more scheming intended to leave "government" as the tacitly assumed sole authorized wielder of such powers and roles, the rest relegated to dependence upon "government" to handle all problems no matter how great or petty, through prohibition. This is a valid concern, and IMO time is here for Americans to stand and take matters into their rightful hands through assertion of their sovereign rights and authority to put crimes against liberty to proper ends, most especially when those crimes are committed in large scale such as we now see in places as rioters burn cities and bring innocent people to unjust physical harm.

The "state" is not the only entity qualified to correct such excursions from peaceable daily life. "Government" is in fact the least qualified to correct such problems even in the best of times, much less so after 150 years of ever growing corruption and failure.

Arm yourselves in body and mind in preparation not just of the current and escalating troubles, but to become the proper and perpetual instruments of just and rightful governance, first and foremost of yourselves, but also of those of your fellows who fail to do so in criminal fashion.

Remember and never forget: "government" OF the people, first and foremost. YOU are "government". You must be, because if you will not govern, you WILL BE governed by others in whose intentions, integrity, and capacities you can never be quite certain. Giving yourself over to police, mayors, governors, legislators, and village dog catchers is to put your very life in the hands of people whose trustworthiness is PERFORCE never sufficient to the day.

The choice is ours.

It always has been. Until next time, please accept my best wishes.
