Different forms of government - Why we used to have the best government.

[Teresa]

Second Amendment March will take place in Washington DC.  Kjell and I have been informed that we will most likely be there and will help cover this huge important event.



News Letter for 03-11

I dare say that too many people have no clue as to what America is and what makes America great. We are too busy watching American Idol, text messaging, or surfing the internet for pornography.
Can I prove that? No.
Do I need to? Probably not.
I think it's self evident to most Americans, even the semi-clueless ones, that something is gravely wrong with our society. Something is broken.
I submit to you that it is our own moral compass. It used to point to True North, a direction built on absolutes that never change, but now it switches directions every time the wind blows.
I'm not going to preach to you. I just want to state my case and you can decide for yourselves.

In preparation for this article I watched a video written and narrated by John McManus titled "A Tribute to America".

In my opinion, it should be viewed by every American, because it gives us the baseline for what America is all about, how it was founded and the proper role of government.
You would think that a video this important would be viewed by millions upon millions of people, but it is not.

The video comes in 4 parts: the first one has only 15,465 views, which is really quite pitiful for a YouTube video; especially when you compare that to the Britney Spears "Womanizer" video which has 69,426,252 views.
You read that number correctly:  69 MILLION views of a naked woman singing about her cheating live-in boyfriend.

Is America going down the YouTubes, and, if so, why?


I believe the answer is yes and I believe the reason is because we no longer know who we are or what we stand for. Many of us have become selfish and ignorant, which inevitably leads to graft and corruption. Too many people today have a false idea of what the Second Amendment really is. They believe it is a right given to us by the government. That is false. If the government can bestow it, then they also can rightfully take it away.
The Second Amendment, like all the amendments in the Bill of Rights, were bestowed upon us by our creator and the government's sole purpose is to protect those inalienable rights.
The government's job is to protect us from each other and from foreign powers.
The US Constitution is the document that binds the hands of the government. It restricts the powers of the government and makes them subservient to the people.

But too many in government no longer serve as our protector, and they are rapidly becoming our oppressor. The time for change is NOW!

I am encouraged by the millions of people standing up all over America and saying "Enough is enough! Government, get out of my house, get out of my family, get out of my church, get out of my pocket!"

I would like to increase the number of people who watched the John McManus Tribute to America from 15,465 to well over 69 million.

People are angry, but one has to remember that anger is most often a secondary emotion.
I believe the primary emotion is fear. People are afraid of what the government has become. They are big and powerful and overbearing. They have become intrusive bullies, and we all know that a bully never quits until someone stands up to him.

It's time to put the government back into its rightful place as protectors of its citizens instead of oppressors of the people. Where can we start?
First.....view the following videos. They will give you the baseline civics lesson you need to educate other people on what it means to be an American.

The entire series takes only about 30 minutes to view.

After that, log on to www.secondamendmentmarch.com www.secondamendmentmarch.com and register as a coordinator or other type of volunteer.
If you have the means in these hard economic times, also contribute money to help us in our cause.
Visit our talk forum and make plans with other like-minded Americans to attend one of our many State Capitol Marches or the big DC March.

The important thing is that you get back in the game! We need every American, regardless of political party, race, or religion. Everyone who believes that the Second Amendment is an individual right must come together.

If we don't stand up and unite, then America will continue to go down the YouTubes.





Ways to Get Involved

Many people have emailed or posted in our forums, asking how they can be more involved.  One of the best things people can do right now is spread the word about Second Amendment March.  We have a simple pdf flyer available at http://www.secondamendmentmarch.com/promo.htm.
  Feel free to print it, post it, distribute it...whatever it takes to spread the word far and wide about the upcoming marches.

Of course, continue to write to and call your state representatives regarding your stance on the second amendment, and what it means to all freedom-loving Americans.
Thanks for your continued support.  United we stand!

Sincerely,

Second Amendment March
