Tragedy. Press Release from Liberty For All in WA state.

The thing about LFA in WA state that stands out in my mind (having worked with them now since December last on a number of armed civil disobedience actions) is their situational awareness and nose for spotting trouble a long way off. This was the case with Roy H. Murry. I well recall when this loon first came to my attention when I was briefed at the time by LFA and how professionally LFA handled the matter. Now it seems they were tragically right on the money. Army veteran who ran for state senate in Washington accused of killing 3 in-laws, then torching home to hide evidence. Here's LFA's press release on the case:

LFA III% was horrified to learn of the triple murder this week in Colbert, WA. We also learned that Roy H. Murry was arrested and charged with shooting his mother-in-law, her son, and his stepfather-in-law.

Murry has never been, nor is he now, a member or associate of LFA III%. We became aware of him through mutual contacts and realized immediately that he was unstable, associated with groups diametrically opposed to LFA's mission and belief system, and that his goal included potentially violent encounters with law enforcement at the February 7 rally in Olympia.

Prior to the rally, LFA provided Washington State Patrol with an intelligence report offering evidence of credible threats and malice against the WSP and Rep. Matthew Shea. We believe, based on available intelligence, that Rep. Shea's family was also at risk.

While at the rally, we coordinated with WSP to ensure that Murry was not in attendance and planned to assist WSP in detaining him as a threat if he was spotted.

We are saddened by this tragedy, and our thoughts and prayers go out to Murry's wife Mandy.

FedUp said...: I've long believed that a tragic loss of life can occur in a natural disaster, in an accident, or even in wartime, but death due to murder or terrorism is an atrocity, not a tragedy.; June 2, 2015 at 6:15 AM

"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.
