"If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs . . .

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it." - If - Rudyard Kipling

b. Freedom
------------------------
"I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery." - Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, January 30, 1787
"They may take our lives, but they will never take our freedom!" - Braveheart
"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"We just need to find a way to wake the people up. Because the point is simply this: it comes down to a choice. It’s either freedom, democracy, and the rule of law — or enslavement. There is no such thing in between. There is no such thing as a little freedom, a little democracy, a little rule of law, just as there is no such thing as a little enslavement. So that’s the choice. It comes down to – it’s either the globalitarian misanthropists or the people. It comes down to – it’s either us or them. And that’s, I think, what this really is all about. Now, when my colleagues and I were elected to this parliament, there was no question about it. We were on the side of the people because the people actually pay us to act in their best interests. That’s our job. And once again, I will say to every single elected representative around the world, to every single member in every elected government around the world, if you do not unequivocally stand with the people and serve in their best interests, act in their best interests, you have no place in any parliament or in any government. You belong behind bars. You may even rot in hell for all I care at this point because that’s exactly what you deserve if you sell out the people.” - MEP Christine Anderson
"A man chooses, a slave obeys." - Unknown
“The way freedom works is you only get it by convincing tyrants that controlling you is more trouble than it's worth. No one will force a mask on you if the probability is high that you will shoot them in the face. It really is that simple.“ - Unknown
"Thus is the cycle of history! Freedom leads to complacency, and children unfamiliar with the lack of freedom. They become lazy and selfish, loving evil. This gives rise to tyranny. Then blood is shed, fighting for freedom, and the cycle begins again." - Unknown
"I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do." - The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
"Until you realize:
- The government is not your friend
- The law is not here to protect you
- Money is not here to give you life
- The church is not here to save you
- The doctor is not here to make you healthy
- The school system is not here to give you knowledge
- The pharmacy is not here to cure you.
You will never be free." - Unknown
"Fuck it. Let's put it all out there:
- Biden is a pedophile
- Obama is gay
- Michelle is a dude
- The elites drink baby blood
- Child trafficking is the elite's drug of choice

- The USA is a corporation
- The immigrants coming over the border are military aged males who will attack everyone
- The food we eat is poisoned on purpose
- The COVID Vax was meant to depopulate the world
- The election was stolen
- Hillary had JFK Jr. assassinated
- Mail in ballots were used to steal the election
- Cancer is purposely caused by the government" - Unknown
"Your fuked only if you believe you're fuked. If you think they own you, or think they can control you, you aren't a true conservative. Conservatives have values that lead to a way of life that is based on your productivity and ingenuity. They work hard, a deal is a deal, and trust is a must, a man's word is his bond. We raise healthy families who raise healthy families because we grow what we eat. We are not slaves to social media, and neither are our kids. We try to know our neighbors, we believe in what man calls God, a higher power, and right and wrong. And we believe in your Freedom." - Unknown
