CNN Money published an article that Bloomberg believes there can well be riots in New York , just as in the UK, Europe, Egypt and other places,as a result of the unemployment rate being so high for those graduating from college with no jobs in their foreseeable future.  While this may be a possibility, I have written many tomes here that my concern is that the many militias who are in the US and have been training and stockpiling weapons will start a Revolution.  Historically, that has been the choice of the downtrodden as we can take the French Revolution as an example.

"I promise to defend and observe the Constitutional liberties embodied in the Bill of Rights for all American citizens by example, persuasion, and force of arms if necessary." � From the oath of office for the Free Militia   To read more, click here 
Written further in their site description is:  "
The Free Militia is a locally organized body of armed American citizens committed to defending their Constitutional liberties. We call it "free" for two reasons. First, it is free or independent from the control of any local, state, or federal government. Second, our whole purpose is to defend our freedoms. So, the Free Militia acts freely to defend freedom.
We also call it a "militia" for two reasons. First, we are a military organization. Our purpose is, if necessary, to defend our liberties by force of arms. Second, we are a militia in the sense that we are composed of private citizens instead of professional soldiers. Hence, the Free Militia is a combat team of private citizens."  Harken the danger; riots would be minor compared to the Militias plans


During the recent Teaparty (Republican?) debates when someone asked Ron Paul what he would do if there were people dying without being able to afford medical care the4 audience responded with as much compassion as the Roman felt for the gladiators.  The loud and general consensus was clearly, "Let them die!"  What has become of the humanity in our country?

DOES THE US ACTIVELY PROTECT US FROM DOMESTIC TERRORISTS?

A recent article by Joshua Holland brought up an issue long troubling to me.  Some of the rhetoric I have heard from Palin, Beck, Limbaugh, Bachmann and others sounds very much like they are supporting an uprising of violence. with phrases like, "Let's take our government back"  Militias have grown stronger but indications are that they are not to protect the United States from invaders but rather from elected leaders and our own government. I have questioned the legality of elected politicians taking this position and felt myself whistling in the wind.

Usually I make comments on what some with whom I agree or disagree, has said, making myself clear by comments.  Today I want to urge you to read this article by Joshua Holland.  Once again we seem caught in the trap of the 'bad guys are foreigners...we Americans are the good guys'.  How wrong is that thinking?  The bad guys, folks, are some of us.  Revolutions are not always started in other countries by the CIA, as some people might think, but are started within the American 'family'.We only have to remember the Murrah Bldg which seemed eclipsed by the towers, about which oil rich lands were the goal of the 'getting even 'with Hussein who had nothing to do with it.  Our militias train regularly, are well armed, and look forward to overcoming our government, spurred onward by angry rhetoric from media and politicians yet , it seems, they are not considered a threat.  I consider them a great threat and wonder why we can't, as ordinary people, see the forest for the trees.

Wake up America and look at your own backyard and neighborhood!
