Anonymous said...: The comments are a condensed collection of all the smears, the outright lies and the projections the collectivists have towards anything/anyone not socialist. Then, what can you expect from most WAPO readers. Registration is required to post comments there. But please register, comment, defend your views, and because of the great number of leftards it reaches, it will definitely serve our purpose to let them know that WE ARE EVERYWHERE! Dont forget your IIIs.

I won't post even more links here, but do a simple search for "Patriot Act Protest" and you will see they happened all over the country.

To this day we are upset about the confiscation of arms during Katrina. They got away with it once, it won't happen again.

The list goes on. We were there, in plain sight, mad as hell. We continue to be angry today to a greater degree because of all those past violations and the new ones which are continuing to happen today.

If someone slaps you, you will get mad but if slapped multiple times that anger becomes rage. That is what they are not understanding.; April 9, 2010 at 9:16 AM

Anonymous said...: About time the WaPo woke up. All in all a fairly well balanced and written article.

But the comments . . . .
There's one difference (among MANY) between conservatives & liberals: conservatives attack the ideas, and THEN the people who push those ideas; liberals attack the people first, then barely acknowledge the ideas behind the people they're attacking.

Whew! I'm glad I don't have to change the liberal commenter's sheets. . . . Such invective!

straightarrow said...: No, I have just about quit commenting to people as ignorant as most of the commenters on that site.

I am through wasting breath on them. They will stand down, if they have any brains at all.

They do not. Therefore we all know what will inevitably occur.; April 9, 2010 at 12:38 PM
Dave Lincoln said...: I like this one:

"Both events are scheduled to coincide, organizers say, with the 235th anniversary of "the shot heard round the world" in the battles of Lexington and Concord."

******************************
Lawyer for the III:
"The events are scheduled to coincide with the 235th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord."

Lawyer for the Wash. Post:
"Pure hearsay, your Honor! I object! Who's to say what date the battles of Lexington and Concord occurred on? And, do we really know, your Honor, how many years ago that was?"

Judge: "WTF, get the f__k out of my courtroom. How stupid can you be? What are you, a reporter or something? Let me guess: NY Times?, Washington Post?, what?; April 9, 2010 at 4:36 PM
Unknown said...: I read the comments over there...

It's so sickening to, once again, confirm that these people cannot pry themselves away from "partisan politics" long enough to know that this IS NOT about democrats, republicans, or a black man/Muslim in the white house...

I no longer wonder why the 2 parties platforms split the libertarian point of view right down the middle, each taking half of the planks, so that true liberty can NEVER prevail...; April 10, 2010 at 11:07 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
