**Disclaimer: nowhere in the following post is the author advocating or calling for actual real-world violence.
Whilst watching a republican elected legislator from Wisconsin scold common Americans for their behavior in D.C. on a national broadcast "news" show tonight, what became evident to me was the true meaning/message of his words. What the guy was really saying was something like, "How dare you mere peasants even think of threatening us—your betters, your masters in Congress." From there my mind sort of drifted like pungent-acrid cedar smoke from a campfire back to the early battles of our American Revolutionary War, and even farther back still to the lead up to said historically crucial and wholly violent conflict. See, the British nobles and lords and fat pocket politicians of those days looked down upon the average American Colonist in much the same light. They were royally, aristocratically worthy—approved by God even, their self-enriching purposes—whilst the people of the colonies were chattel at best; meat to be left alone so long as they swore absolute fealty to the Crown and summarily butchered if their loyalties strayed one hair's breadth from the throne almighty back in Britain, far across a very cold sea indeed.
But today, the better part of two and a half centuries later, the repeated mantra of pundits, politicians and "journalists" everywhere is: we must never resort to violence . . . only peaceful protest. What's happened to cause this eunuch neutered lack of real American Spirit is the transformation of our elected leaders, congressman in particular, from a body that represents the people and answers directly to it, into a neo-aristocracy made up of men and women millionaires whose primary function in office and life is to enrich themselves and grow their own political power, all at the expense of the people who elected them. So what's happened, in clearer terms, is our Congress has become a neo-British Crown occupying our sovereign nation as if it were a mere colony of Washington D.C.
So of course our elected leaders will champion unto their deaths the mantra of peaceful protest and make violent resistance out to be the most taboo of social crimes one can ever commit. Pacified we are their cattle. Enraged and violent we are mobs with torches and pitchforks made to feel ashamed of our disdain for the neo-nobility who hates us. But organized into citizen armies we become their worst nightmare.
What needs to happen then? What's the solution? In my opinion (and I'm not actually calling for it, mind you) the American People need to force the legislative and judicial branches of our government into signing a pact with them similar to Magna Carta, where our Congress and Supreme Court (in place of a monarch) keeps its function (jobs) but answers always and frequently to the PEOPLE or else; or else meaning a citizen army yanks them out of their comfy little senate and house seats and puts them to the question.
Of course . . . nothing remotely resembling what I've suggested (academically speaking) will ever happen. Why not? Because Americans have lost the Spirit of '76 and most American men seem to have grown to adulthood missing their balls, too busy searching for their next plaid shirt, razor to trim their man-beard, and pair of thin-soled imitation combat boots to be bothered by the real jackboot pressing down ever harder on their man rouged little faces. We're talking about a generation of "men" (I use that term only because: the English language) who uses scented ass wipes for God's sake. No. Not happening. Too many American "men" are just too damn thrilled to be subjects of the D.C. Crown to ever even think of indulging in that most awful of social taboos. You know . . . the one our Founding Fathers committed over and over again from 1775-1783.
