Just a minor return to form.

I've been gone. Gone for a long time. There occurred many events almost all at once that matter to me in my life. As for now, let us concentrate on a simple thought. I love this country. The people, the places. We are a nation I can, and am, proud to be a part of. Because of this pride I have a simple message. This message goes out to our government. You had best be afraid. Be very afraid. We will not tolerate your evil much longer. We would have changed things a long while before now, but we so wanted to believe in your good intentions. You see, we tried to believe in your better nature for so long, like a mother trying to keep hope that her son has not gone bad. But we finally accept that you have gone bad, gone so bad that there is no return. And so we reject you. We reject your lies and your desperate assurances that 'this' time it will be okay. My vote will carry that weight and if my vote does not accomplish what needs to be accomplished, then I will violently overthrow you. I choose these words specifically because in legal terms they are considered treason. What I am saying here and now is that if the government is not changed immediately then, by your laws, the only true patriot would be considered treasonous. You have left me and the people who I would defend with my life no choice. You know that in the end, there is no government, only people, citizens who have the power. And you do not want to have to face that power. While it may be one nation under God, it is also one government under that nation. We can give, but we can also take away.

Rage is so unseemly.

I agree, but I can't abide the way you state this. Violence is not the way.

I paid $11,000 in taxes last year. Much of it went to buy bombs to drop on brown people I have nothing against. I agree with you. Maybe our government needs to feel a little of the fear that they impose on others.
