“It’s really hard to govern today. . . . The First Amendment stands as a major block.” Once in awhile the veil is lifted, and they bare their objectives for all the world to see. It doesn't happen very often - in fact it occurs very rarely. But when it does, it underscores all that their actions tell us about them. Absolute, unchallengeable power. Apart from the constructive abolition of the 1st Amendment, they must dilute the 2nd Amendment to the point where it's little more than words scratched on centuries old parchment. Then comes the liquidation of the undesirables a la the Khmer Rouge, Stalin, etc. etc. etc. This story is old, but each time it happens it is as though it had never happened before.

The founders did #2 for two reasons:

1) To form a means of self-defense for the country and each state. A militia will be formed for protection and the people will be armed with weapons to do that protection. Even in the Civil war, states sent their militias to fight for the North and South, remember Chamberlain’s 20th Maine? Arms were guaranteed to each individual for use in the militia. One difference then is demonstrated in Williamsburg, the Armory where all weapons were stored that could not be stored at home. People needed arms for self-protection in those days just as today.

2) The main reason that Dem socialists want those guns, to enable Jefferson’s proclamation in the Declaration that it is the responsibility of a people to overthrow a bad overbearing government. Today’s Leftist Deep State IS a bad overbearing government. They want our guns and they do not give a shit about the Constitution.

my apology for asking if you had a firearm before knowing you're a kiwi - that's New Zealander, right? So, of course your options - like your opinions - are limited. And living in Seattle for 41 years explains much about your perception of America. You are incorrect in a great many of your assumptions, however your "views" of our country from across the ocean, in another hemisphere - are perhaps best kept in your own part of the world. And f.y.i. - it's "black powder" rifles or pistols. The gunshot victims your "doctor daughters" deal with, are likely due to "black powered" firearms.

you sure are sad in your attacks, kiwi (rhymes with "weewee"). And as for 'obnoxious', seems you have no other argument other than the superiority of N.Z. and it's folks. We saw how you let a horsefaced woman run your country during Covid, the lock downs and threats. Is that the "freedom" you spoke of. I can assure you that during my years in aviation, I have worked in far more states and countries than you have. I am certainly not "the most knowledgeable guy in the world" - I am, however, more intelligent than you. As for your "racist" comment, I am married to a native American woman; and bear no umbrage toward any race. My.statement about "black powered" weapons was because most shootings in cities nowadays are committed by young black men; that's just a fact. And, it was because apparently they don't teach proofreading over there.

Lovely country, by the way. I enjoyed it on each of my visits there. Sadly, though, it does have a few folks there pretty high on themselves; so much so that they will dump on a country that provided a decades long career. You're the "asshole"; "mate". Get over yourself.

The five cities in the USA that have the highest homicide rate are Chicago, Detroit, Wash.DC, St. Louis and New Orleans, They ALL have very strict gun control laws.

Your assertion is BS. Gun Control is not the answer. People control is always the answer. Guns do not pull their own triggers, people do. If guns are taken away, people will stab each other.

Dennis, you face the same dilemma that the politicians face, How do you convince PEOPLE not to kill each other? Gum control is not the answer. Precedent? Prohibition. Hey, maybe New Zealand’s solution is not to have two completely different peoples trying to live together, hating each other like Americans are doing now. Solution? Ban political parties and vote for the best guy. One of Mc Cains best ideas was to limit the amount of money afforded to political parties, especially from billionaires. When I think of all the good that could be done with the money wasted on TV political ads, it is disgusting.

Then they probably still won't understand or appreciate guerrilla warfare, with internal being the worst.

The planes have to land and pilots eat eventually and to know and interact with others, like on the ground.

That's in large part why civs collapse probably.

The last time I checked, Joe Biden doesn’t know how to fly and F-16, doubtful he knows how to fly a kite for that matter, besides living on a beach where kite flying is fun. I digress, he doesn’t know that Dr. Jill doesn’t know that the septic truck that pumps human waste from Air Force One is NOT the Jet A fuel truck, and imagine Hunter pulling the flags and pins out of the 500 pound ordinance under the wings…exactly not going to happen. (Can you see ole Hunter on the CVN Gerald Ford heaving deck trying to pull the pins? Hmmm, that might be worth some money spent to witness.) No they don’t get that Charlie is out here in the bush, we starve but squat and get stronger, insurgents work that way, they get hungry and more determined, ever meet an angry insurgent, likely you won’t, but try torturing one. You won’t get far. That is what all these midwits miss, all around them are insurgents, they don’t see it, the same way the brass in Saigon, Baghdad and Kabul didn’t see it, but they are there, living and biding their time. John Forbes “Live shot” Kerry likely has an IQ of around 100, just smart enough to be identified as not hopelessly dumb, but really dumb. Prep school, Yale, a path parted for him by wealth, never challenged and allowed to run untethered from reality his whole life and especially as Secretary of State, he got away with it. He reminds one of the kid in your class at (name the prep school) who is still angry he was not voted student head of the school, lost by a whisker if you ask him, but actually because he was a brown nosing snitch the student body hated his ass and didn’t vote for him…go figure 80 years old and still angry, not a good way to be, thieving everyone’s oxygen with his prattle. All revolutions end the same, not with a bang but whimper. One can ask what happens with the USA and its revolution, it was a divorce so doesn’t count…unless it continues and those pressing the dialectic prevail. My money is on the insurgents. May take a while, but it worked in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan as example….

George Bush 41 laughingly referred to Bill Clinton and Al Gore as "Bozo and Ozone" (they had the last laugh on him, though, as the election turned out), but "The Inconvenient Truth" about Gore is that he a 24 karat phony when it comes to environmentalism and "decarbonizing" the economy, living in a 50,000 sq ft mansion and crisscrossing the nation in his ozone-depleting private jet.

It would help, for a start to select candidates who were known for operating successful businesses but lived modestly, such as Ron Paul, or Sam Walton (even the big city Chicago boss Richard Daley was known to have lived in a modest home.) This would also exclude gluttons like New Jersey's Chris ("Crisco") Christy.

And then that would lead to the question: What if a nation like Russia does not want to share its resources with the rest of the world, including future generations? Could it be that is what the conflict in Ukraine is all about?

And what about Xi's vision for China being the center of the world. Does that mean that Xi will dominate the 2030 agenda, and essentially be the de facto leadership to navigate the world out of the current predicament?

I am all for the yeoman farms and small business/craft-oriented society you describe, but I fear this is a pipe dream. We are no longer Hobbits, isolated from those around us in The Shire. Even when Tolkien was writing about that idyllic world, it was already over, something he tacitly acknowledged. Supporting ourselves on our own parcel of farmland sounds very appealing, but it takes but one bad crop year, one summer of drought or torrential spring rain to annihilate any hopes of succeeding in that endeavor. To be honest, we need abundant available energy to survive. Without energy to power our society, we are doomed to live in a Hobbesian world. With sufficient energy, everyone benefits. We don't have to burn our forests to stay warm as before, nor do we need to mine coal, as alternative sources like natural gas are so abundant. Advances in safe nuclear power generation are already available and, unless the luddites among us prevail, will be coming on line soon enough. Our problem is not too much energy; it is not enough. Oh, and also too many politicians whose goal is to gather as much power as we allow them to have unto themselves at our expense.

The entire national- and world- manufacturing order is thrown into disarray by the imposition of different sets of rules. One reason that natural gas currently trades for one quarter of its former high (under $3/mcf vs $13+) is, even though it is massively cleaner burning than coal, that it is being demonized in the U.S. as "contributing to global warming," even as massively polluted(the joke is that their national bird is the looney) China continues to ADD coal-burning plants- and is accorded Most Favorable Nation status when it comes to exporting its products more cheaply, costing jobs elsewhere. Yet, ironically, their efforts to reduce pollution in their major cities is the driving reason for their emphasis on EV's, which are helping destroy both European and American car makers(See today's Stellantis news) who cannot compete except with big tariffs

"[China's] efforts to reduce pollution in their major cities is the driving reason for their emphasis on EV's"

No.

China makes EVs because they believe the rest of the world will buy EVs instead of ICE vehicles, due to the Globalist policies which outsourced manufacturing to China. China discovered they can make EVs cheaply, and the trend was born.

I admire and envy your independence. However, you are availing yourself of the internet to respond to me only because there is sufficient energy to power its myriad servers, etc. And unless you are Amish, I assume you use gasoline/diesel-powered equipment like chainsaws, tractors, etc. and have electricity to power your lights as well as your computer and an internet connection. (If you are Amish, a population with which I am intimately familiar, that is a different situation. And shame on you for using the internet like the English!) That was my point; we do not live in Eighteenth Century Colonial Williamsburg. Nor, for that matter, do most of us even live like Sean James, whose "My Self Reliance" podcast I enjoy immensely, but who still is reliant on "civilization" for much of his substance. I am glad we still have pockets of such pre-industrial lifestyles with their tried and true means of existence and perhaps things may unravel to the point where we all are compelled to live like that again, but I pray not. (Should that become necessary, you certainly have a leg up on the likes of me.) However, I prefer that life be not poor, nasty, brutish and short. I like painless dentistry, anesthesia for surgery and antibiotics to treat infections that, in those halcyon days of our yeoman farmer ancestors frequently killed their victims. Not to mention the ability to travel to the dentist, hospital or pharmacy to obtain such goods and services. Nonetheless, best of luck with your homesteading life; may you live long and happily.

The following are a few proposals:

1) Leadership should stand for scrutiny.

Why are we the people allowing the politicians and MSM to tell us what we can and cannot see and hear? This is the covid mode of operation. Hiding under a rock, or down in the basement, is not a qualification for leadership; but more likely a setup for a bunch of unelected globalists to run the affairs of state, while hiding behind the curtain.

2) Leadership that does not stand for scrutiny, or offers word salads as an explanation and does not cooperate, should be immediately dismissed.

3) Our representatives in government need to treat everyone with dignity and respect. No lining of pockets with donor or NGO funds, and no gaming the system to gain an advantage. Just focus on doing the job they are being paid to do. Represent us, the whole population.

I would suggest that this would disqualify many members in DC at this point in time. It would wipe the slate clean, and provide for a new mode of operation, since they have demonstrated that they are unfit to rule US.

A voice like Sidney Powell needs to be heard, not silenced.

What is the status of the first Trump assassination attempt? Who will stand for scrutiny, and tell us if the claim that audio of the event, that suggests that there was more than one initial shooter, is legit?

Who will stand for scrutiny, and tell us about the backroom deals that the likes of John Kerry have made with foreign governments on our behalf?

Macgregor claims that the US encouraged the invasion of Lebanon, and is on autopilot in support of their military actions.

My read is that "Joe Biden's" mode of operation has been to try and bribe leadership throughout the world to embrace peace and the 2030 Agenda, which seems to be at odds with Macgregor's claim.

How often has Iran attacked Israel directly with boots on the ground? Never. Nor Iraq. Always missiles. BFD. They are cowards like the USA, always looking for a way to shed the other guys blood. Always proxies. When are the proxies going to figure out that they are being used? I will include the Arabs and the UKES in that statement.

In giving this further consideration, I view "Joe Biden's" primary objective to be implementation of the 2030 Agenda. And if Iran does not want to cooperate in this endeavor, then "Joe Biden" will navigate the path that he feels is most beneficial to his agenda.

I am in agreement with Macgregor (vs Keane), and assess that the majority of the population of the world view themselves as victims of the US$ key currency in one fashion or another. I don't view the "proxies" as individuals that are being used, but individuals who view themselves as having been abused (either directly, indirectly, or their ancestors) by "Israel". Israel's current aggression, as supported and promoted by Keane, just creates more enemies (than they are killing) against Israel, as Macgregor eludes.

The BRICS+ is comprised of countries that view themselves as being/have been abused by the western world, and view this time as an opportunity to breakout from the oppression.

My bet is on Macgregor's assessment, that the West is going to loose the war if it proceeds as Keane advises.

Ultimately, the citizens of the world are going to support leadership/actions which they think best represents their individual interest.

Yo Jarek, you still haven't figured out that capitalism and "corporate personhood" AKA crony capitalists, or "Corporate Capitalists" as you like to call them, are completely different?

When will you learn?

Greed drives the small to become medium sized, and the medium big, and the big into corporate giants. What could be simpler to understand? Men won't control themselves so someone else must do it.

What is your problem, woman? You want a simple answer. And the answer is simple but too close to home, i.e, human nature itself.

Uh huh, you just destroyed your own argument, Lugh.

Men won’t control themselves, so someone must do it. Right?

Your answer is some form of government. But one problem, government is comprised of men, just as subject to corruption as the corporate leaders.

The answer was and is, open markets where new business is being generated constantly to expand and put the older businesses out of business, continuous recycling. Second, ban lobbying of the government, consider it a bribe. Both are very much hard to do, but much better than government control.

So the answer is the Law of the Jungle, big eating small. That's what the market is, when left to itself. As the Alchemists said, Nature unaided, fails.

You still refuse to recognise the difference between capitalism and "corporate personhood"/AKA "crony capitalism."

Please, even a brief scan of even such a pathetic site as Wiki will tell you this.

Your know-it-all arrogance bores me.

Yes!!!! Lugh, let me ask you. Who exactly would you want in place to control your life. Who would you want to tell you what to do if you owned a small business? Bill Gates? Kamala Harris? Rachel Maddow? Sean Hannity? You say you would want the government to control the crony corporations, I do not believe that. You want the same thing I do, for a system that controls itself, the free market. A system where folks get many choices and many chances to recovery from mistakes. You are not a socialist, you want to run your own life.

I wouldn't be so sure about J-Rod not being a socialist, JAZ.

He talks big about National Socialism, but would want to be one of the Elite, not one of the serfs.

09/30/24: It's the same old pattern A) Feigning shock --- "How DARE you accuse of this!" Then, after their aberrant behavior through repetition has been normalized, B) "Yeah, that's who we are / what we did. UP YOURS!"

What 'veil'? Just look around and/or talk to any anarchist.

Cripes, they even spell it out in our art:

“Morpheus: 'The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Neo: 'What truth?'

Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison, for your mind.”

"Someone has written a book about the children and their need for their, just simply, emotional and mental development to have contact with the mountains, with the air, the sea, with the dawn, the sunset, the trees, the birds, the song of the birds. Children that don't have these experiences have no real idea of the world they live in. They live in a house, in a school, in a city that's all manufactured. And they begin to be progressively isolated from the basic dynamics of what human life is all about." ~ Thomas Berry
