"Armed civil disobedience and the patriot movement." Somehow, I can't see myself as Abbie Hoffman but some folks apparently do.

I’m fascinated by Vanderboegh, for a lot of reasons. He broke the Fast and Furious scandal to Sharyl Attkisson and introduced her to the whistleblowers, for one thing. For another, when he speaks, he says very radical things, but doesn’t come across as hateful or crazy, unlike, say Adam Kokesh’s bizarre libertarian headspace in which killing cops is implicitly an act of self-defense. For what it’s worth, it’s also hard to see him abide the Millers’ fanboy bullshit; the far right is unbecoming when clothed in V for Vendetta slogans and Batman haberdashery. This isn’t about fame, or martyrdom, or the new world order, or any of that. It’s about letting those in government know that their is a limit to what the armed populace will take lying down, telling them, in the hope that it will make them change their minds, that “if you try to take our firearms, we will kill you.“
In that video Vanderboegh openly advocates smuggling guns in contravention of new state laws, claims “civil war is starting us in the face” and generally acts the part of a righteous rabblerouser. He asks members of the crowd to hold up the rubber pistols he smuggled in to make a point (but doesn’t show off the actual illegal magazines he claims to have also brought), which is a stunt worthy of Abbie Hoffman.

We are being invaded. I can not say this enough. Actively invaded and our commander in chief, CONgress and all politicians are standing idly by or facilitating said invasion. IT MUST BE STOPPED AND TURNED AROUND DO YOU COPY?

Mike, you are Sooo Baad!

And I'm also Sooo Proud to stand with you. And like you I hope this can be reversed without bloodshed; however, we have run out of room to back up any longer.

Those who wish total control over us have been warned---much like in hearing the buzz of a coiled rattlesnake. To continue to tread on us will not see further retreat, only a deadly bite.

Good work, Mr. V.

They don't know what to make of our kind mike. We just tell the truth as a matter of fact without the spin and especially without the trite political hyperbole. This is a foreign concept to those indoctrinated into the world of today's "journalism".

Removing the talking point generalities and supplanting it with unambiguous presentation of the realities and consequences is something that today's authorized journalists just cannot fathom. Like petulant children, they simply cannot get past their selfishness. This because they have yet to "grow up".

But don't take the obvious boat tossed out here. Don't hold up magazines to give the loyalists their wet dream - to show you that you are no David Gregory. Couched in fake praise is an attempt to get you to make a mistake, to break from your well regulated exercise of multiple rights. Stay smarter than the statists bastards.
