If you possess the franchise and do not vote this November you have no right to complain about the state of affairs in the republic, and you certainly have no moral authority to advocate violence in the name of the Constitution or Declaration or Bill of Rights.

The Founders and Framers obviously agreed that violence had its place in the political world.  Violence to the ends of Liberty and Freedom is morally justified.  They also, obviously, were determined that violence only be a means to that end when other practical means were denied.

They built into the Constitution several mechanisms for restraining the natural tendencies of wicked men who would be drawn to politics.  They outlined the rules very clearly.  In the end, they ensured that every American ultimately had recourse to the Second Amendment to restore Liberty if all else failed.

First, however, they gave to us the voting booth.  It makes no difference that you believe voting will make no difference in the realm of American politics.  First, you are mistaken.  It may not provide immediate remedy to generations of abuse, but if Americans toss career politicians who disrespect the Founding Principles out on their collective butts, it does send a message.  It sends a message to those who remain, and it sends a message to those entering for the first time. 

It is another rattle of the rattlesnake.

They also gave to use the only articulated crime in the Constitution: Treason.

The oath of office is to the Constitution.  Failure to abide the Constitution is Treason.  Willful misinterpretation and misapplication of the Constitution is Treason.

The penalty for Treason is quite severe.

Send new politicians to Washington, your state capitals, your city hall and your school board with a whisper in their ear...we have grown intolerant of further of bad behavior.  We are done allowing you to send American jobs to build a middle class in other nations.  We are done with the theft of our Liberty and our property under the twisted claim of Interstate Commerce and the General Welfare.  We will have you fight for your life against charges of Treason if you persist.

We may use the courts...and we may not.

But if you fail to vote when you have the opportunity, you defile the very documents and principles you claim to defend.  If you choose not to vote, you sneer and dismiss Jefferson and the rest of the men and women who fought, killed and died to give to you a means other than arms to change your fate.

Excerpt: There comes a time when civility is no longer appropriate as the only option on the table.  Dare we not offend the sensibilities of Liberals, Socialists, and Communists in our midst who are ruining and destroying our republic?  Are we to cower and sheepishly genuflect when we are scolded for the tone or choice of our words in the face of ruin, poverty, tyranny, and death?!

Excerpt: You are a fool if you do not believe that elements of the Left would use force, if they could, to compel you to comply with many of their edicts.  In drafting healthcare reform, they use the threat of financial fines, felony conviction and prison if you refuse to buy health insurance! 

How is that not only a degree or two removed from a pistol to the head? We are undeniably heading toward the same tyrannies known to Russians, Germans, and the Chinese.  It starts with Liberalism, advances to Socialism, and ends with Fascism, Communism, or some other tyranny…and death.

Excerpt: We have a culture of people whose first response to a physical threat is to dial 911, or worse, a lawyer.  We have a nation of people who will dump hot coffee on themselves, then sue the restaurant – and win!  We have a nation of educators who suspend children for drawing a picture of a handgun or for bringing a Boy Scout knife-and-fork kit to show and tell! 

We have a nation of people so removed from the food chain that many would starve to death if the local supermarket closed.  We have a nation of people who cannot truly grasp the hardships faced by most of the people in the world every day, and as a result we have a nation of people who have lost fundamental common sense.

Excerpt: The Bill of Rights articulates the natural rights of man, rights that are not bestowed by government, but rights that are innately ours as human beings.  These rights may not be taken from us.  These rights were written in plain language so that no clever interpretation and manipulation of the intent was possible.  These rights may not be restricted, narrowed, or infringed.  Any attempt to do so is a violation of the relationship between Man and Creator. 

Every narrowing, restriction, infringement, and clever interpretation imposed upon us in the years since our Constitution was ratified is simply a violation of our natural rights.

We hold that every violation of the Constitution and Bill of Rights by those in Government is an act of Treason, as these violations are unjust, undermining the fundamental foundations of our republic, breaking the pact between citizen and government, and desecrating the relationship between Man and Creator.  Any man or woman who enforces these unconstitutional laws on behalf of government is a treasonous soul and an enemy of Liberty and humanity.

Liberalism is Treason & Tyranny

Jus ad bellum: There is a moral obligation on the part of any Patriot who decides to engage in violence, before you cross the Rubicon and plunge yourself and perhaps your republic into the horrors of civil war.  Killing an enemy is always just and proper in the face of an existential threat.  Whether the Liberal comes to your home to kill you, or sends armed Government thugs to kill you, or to interfere with your ability to provide for your family, he poses the same existential threat to you and your family as does the liberal who pulled that lever in the voting booth.  Dead is dead, whether by violence or poverty and starvation caused by Liberal policies, and both are morally sound justifications for war.
