Wanted: Three Percenters tech-savvy enough to create Gunwalker-themed cartoon videos.

Consider the Mr. Fiddlesticks' videos in the post below as a template. We can write the scripts but lack the ability to put them into cartoon form. Volunteers? Email me at GeorgeMason1776@aol.com.

LC Scotty said...: Hi Mike,

The site used to create those is called xtranormal. I don't think you need any technical saavy-you pick the characters and write the text and it does the rest for you. The key is writing good scripts.

Here's a few others that may tickle you:

There's a great one out there of Helmke and Obama in the white house but I can't find it right now.; August 7, 2011 at 6:24 PM
Mickey Collins said...: I haven't done it myself, but I think writing the script is the hardest part. I suppose there might be some effort involved in getting the computer voice to pause for breath in the appropriate spot so that it resembles human speech.

Fiddlesticks used this:

BTW, have you seen this one?

Here's my favorite, with 152,675 views.

Looking at the variety of videos currently posted on Xtranormal, I doubt anything Gunwalker related or in defense of Mr Fiddlesticks would raise an eyebrow.

You have to play with word spellings in order to make it speak what you want it to speak. Depending on the word(s), spellings can get interesting.; August 7, 2011 at 9:18 PM

Here's a good one, for anyone interested in the 3 percent.; August 7, 2011 at 10:02 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.

-- Mike Vanderboegh, The Lessons of Mumbai:Death Cults, the "Socialism of Imbeciles" and Refusing to Submit, 1 December 2008

"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.
