Excellent article below by Tony Cartalucci concerning the ‘Showdown in Oregon between Armed Ranchers and Federal Agents’. Tony provides us a real plan that we can use effectively. To be honest, I really didn’t want to read this long article thinking it would be a pain and of small value, but I know Tony as a thoughtful writer so gave him the benefit of the doubt.  I’m glad that I did, because this has provided me the outline for action that I have been looking for.  Like so many, I’m tired of sitting here on the sidelines bitching and watching as our freedoms guaranteed by the constitution are subsumed by Corporate-Insurgents who have infiltrated our government, our schools, our media and our money system.

Based on my default positon on the status of the U.S., it was a little confusing for me to read Tony’s insurgency and counter-insurgency, since I tend to reverse the roles; but after reading this fine article, I agree with Tony.

Tony’s depiction is that the Insurgency are the forces that are trying to take over our country and the counter-insurgency would therefore be us the good citizens of the USA. My default position has always been that the insurgency took over our country way back in 1913 with the creation of the Federal Reserve and the 16th Amendment; so for me, those who want to wrest the control of this country back from private bankers and corporations are the insurgents. In many ways, it doesn’t matter whether you are the insurgency or the counter-insurgency since many of the tactics are similar, but I now tend to agree with Tony that we, the patriots are the counter-insurgency trying to rid our Republic of these interlopers who have taken control of our money, our government and have busied themselves shredding our constitution for the past 103 years. While it is true that the insurgents have also taken control of our media, our schools and our universities, they nonetheless can be seen as insurgents since we are the people living here on the ground suffering the abuse of the insurgents. I may have spent way too much time on this difference, but if we intend to rescue our Republic and our freedoms, we must take seriously the real things we can do in the real world to make real, tangible differences; after all that is what the enemies of freedom have been busy doing with their foundations and think tanks while we have been busy raising our families, working and paying taxes and of course watching Football, Sitcoms, etc.

EXAMPLE:

“Laws and regulations are designed to prevent independent local institutions, services, and economies from springing up and competing directly with the corporate-insurgency. Farmers in America have been fighting laws seeking to disrupt and regulate out of business, local farmer’s markets. Similar laws in regards to “intellectual property rights” seek to stifle the emergence of independent technological innovation and personal manufacturing. Understanding the greater implications of these laws should provide us a greater impetus to organize and find the means of circumventing them.”

I think Tony Cartalucci has provided us some good ideas on how to push back on those who seek to destroy our freedom.
