And then as we become more educated, inspired and alarmed at our precarious situation we can pass this blog on to all who we know. That is the least we can do.

Jefferson made that choice when he wrote the Declaration of Independence (quoted below), and I would suggest that he chose to be poetic, and they appear to mean the same; “God” and “Creator”.

“When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness…”

Is it the same entity?

The people of today are so ignorant…

Here in the USA there are 45 – 50 murders per day. 85% of these are perpetrated by three ethnic groups. The remainder 15% of murders are committed by the remaining 150+ ethnic groups. Now what does this have to do with Mr. Pearce? Once in awhile (every month) a murder causes great backlash, like when a 5’8″ Cop shoots a 6’4″ guy coming at them. And thus Change Does Occur. In any given month there are 1,500 +/- murders, but instead of waiting every two years to make the elected elite hear us… Why not provide a show of steadfast loyalty to our Constitution? Organize a group of at least 1,000 strong, Men, Women, LGBT, Black, White, Yellow, Brown, Red, etc., to meet with their Second Amendment rights in tow and ask for answers. Of course the police will show up, followed by the National Guard, but maybe… Just Maybe, an additional 5,000 Citizens will also show up, by the time the National Guard does and bringing with them similar items that the elected elite enforcers have??? This of course is just a hypothetic scenario which of course should take place in a sanctuary city somewhere in California. Why California??? Because the police don’t have to ask who you are, where you came from, if you have a criminal background or WHY You are Carrying a Second Amendment Constitutional Right!

Although the British had far superior numbers, their weapons were not that different. Today, any declaration of independence would be met with shock and awe, with crushing and overwhelming and highly advanced weaponry. Today, the current folks in power would never admit to being guilty of the above grievances and therefore, would consider any rebellion to be as bad as the Japanese attacking Pearl Harbor. So, the only hope is to control the narrative and wake up the masses and win through the ballot box, not the bullet box.
