Only three percent of the population was needed to kick of the Revolutionary War.
To kick it off, yes, but at that point everyone else had to start making choices, and patriot support increased rapidly.
Total fucking bullshit. You really think that the sane citizens of this nation are going to follow a bunch of fruitloops like you? We had a good example of your kind of thinking just this year here in Oregon. And you fellows insanity was completely rejected.
Oregon wasn't the coming of the revolution, it was a local dispute blown up into a national story due to the federal nature of the place taken over, and the guys relation to a previous incident of armed confrontation.
If the number of people with grievances increases, and these people feel that normal channels will not work to resolve said grievances, what do you think will happen?
No, this isn't true at all. This isn't a local dispute, it's a national dispute and it's been going on for a hundred years. Normal channels do NOT work, because the parties involved are a minority, and located far away from where the majority lives.
California, Utah, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon...they have all been fighting this nonsense, and losing. Because the system is corrupt, because our legislators and our law enforcement do NOT uphold the constitution, and because people stupidly believe that the government in all it's forms..the EPA, the BLM, the USFS, has good intentions.
There are no good intentions here. The government is by its nature tyrannical. Our constitution is supposed to control it in this country, but since NOBODY is adhering to the constitution and in fact our citizenry is no longer even properly educated in their role in a CONSTITUTIONAL republic (because the feds educate them) and people are sick of it. Harney county went from being one of the most prosperous and wealthy counties in the STATE to being I think the second from the bottom just in the last 50 years..and because of NOTHING except governmental manipulation.
