Ahh, yes! The naive principles I latched onto as a young boy. Simple concepts conveyed to me by complex men.....often leached into conversations over the dinner table. Truths often debated, but never denied. ... for truth cannot be denied. For many, integral to their own freedom, is freedom from fear. Freedom from fear is to trust and have faith. To trust and have faith in government, is a desire for freedom from fear.
I say to you that it is important to fear your government, and that you should never fear your government. Two seemingly opposite concepts that are both true. The next time you pass a state trooper and your heart palpitates.....that's fear. The next time you curse the IRS at tax time...but pay anyway knowing the consequences...that's fear. The next time you concede to the oppression in order to salvage the status quo..that is fear. When you trade your freedom for the illusion of security...it is out of fear.
Never fear your government. It should never control you, and certainly never through fear.
