Personally, I am more than willing to post a "No Trespassing" sign on my gate, by my garden, on my chicken coop, on my pasture gates, on my windmill and solar panels, store up extra water (drill a well) and food supply for myself and my extended family, (in other words, become self sufficient) and then sit on my porch with several loaded guns and stand guard, daring anyone that even remotely looks Government to come on my property. It will take a small militia to take me down, which I prefer to being "controlled" to a slow, miserable death! My plan is Biblical... Nehemiah 4:8NIV..."They all plotted together to come and fight against Jerusalem and stir up trouble against it. 9But we prayed to our God and posted a guard day and night to meet this threat." I've been praying, now I think it's time to "post a guard"! I suggested, on another subject, that we all compose and send several letters to our Congressional representatives expressing our thoughts on the subject. I am now changing that and suggesting we send a large box full of letters to them, on each and every issue that comes up. A letter or two can easily be ignored but if we organize a letter campaign so that every member of the 9-12 project, and every member of their family, sends a BUNCH of letters, all on the same day, for consecutive days, maybe then they will take notice. Just a thought...

I am bursting with pride because of each and every one of them. However, I am so ashamed of the country I have previously held in the highest esteem that my heart is breaking. I may be considered by some as a republican, some may see me as a conservative, I see myself as an American. As such, it is my belief that we should take care of our own and if the so called government won't do it, then we must step up and do it ourselves. But, in the meantime, it is our patriotic duty to find a way to stop our "leaders" from enacting such atrocities. I propose every citizen of this once great nation that even knows OF someone that has served in our armed forces, compose, not one, but several, letters to their congressional representative and fill the halls of congress with mail that will leave no doubt how we feel about this proposal. I have found that 1 letter is easily ignored, but let them ignore truckloads of mail!
