The price of liberty is, always has been, and always will be blood. The person who is not willing to die for his liberty has already lost it to the first scoundrel who is willing to risk dying to violate that person's liberty. Are you free? (Andrew Ford)

A person who has realized the principle of nonviolence has the God-given strength for his weapon, and the world has not yet known anything that can match it.

There are very few Ghandi's or Martin Luther Kings born unto us. I think it was you who suggested burning money ? That would take the regime down. That would be non-violent.

No ! I am not free. However I am more free than many that reside in this country. Let's just say that I'm ruggedly independent--which means I depend on no one.

There is no doubt that liberty is purchased by the gallon. Gallons of Blood that is ! Masters die hard ! The Spirit of God, the same Spirit that breathes life into dust, demands liberty. For a man that is not free cannot make a free choice to serve God. God gave Adam a free will. Thus the Spirit of God is to give Free will.

If you live in chains rather than fighting to your last breath to remain free than you insult God. In essence your telling God you do not trust him to give you a room in his fathers mansion. I guess you would feel better here----paying for the whore down the street to receive her food stamps which she trades for some crack cocaine an hour later ?

We must change our system of Government ! How that is done matters not. Find me this Ghandi or pass the ammunition. But, while your waiting to decide which one to do ? Remember this. It is better to die in ditches serving God than to live in chains. No matter how soft and velvety they are--a chain is a disgrace to God !
