May 7, 2013                                                    America free for how long?

I was in the service and defended my country, your freedoms and your families freedoms, anything less than full loyalty to our nation is treason!   We need to start abolishing traitors, I hope you agree, in the following below regarding Thomas Jefferson see if you can follow with the word of intelligent men and how god intended it to be even in our day and age.  
My idea of freedom means that no one infringe on our constitutional rights as the left is doing by trying to disarm America.  Anyone who opposes the 2nd amendment is a traitor!!!

Below is a very intelligent review of a very intelligent man, remember when they were here in the beginning
they did not have televisions, telephones, cars, trucks, electronic appliances and the such, nor did they have
the modern conveniences that we have today.  They didn't have the hospitals, the dentists and the variety of services we have today, so they had to work harder and work smarter than most of the world in their day!

Thomas Jefferson knew because he himself studied the previous failed attempts at government. He understood actual history, the nature of God, his laws and the nature of man. That happens to be way more than what most understand today. Jefferson really knew his stuff. A voice from the past to lead us in the future:

John F. Kennedy held a dinner in the white House for a group of the brightest minds in the nation at that time. He made this statement: "This is perhaps the assembly of the most intelligence ever to gather at one time in the White House with the exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone
PART TWO


"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."
-- Thomas Jefferson

"It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world."
-- Thomas Jefferson

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
-- Thomas Jefferson


"My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government."
-- Thomas Jefferson


"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms."
-- Thomas Jefferson


"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort
protect themselves against tyranny in government."
-- Thomas Jefferson

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
-- Thomas Jefferson


"To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical."
-- Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.

If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property - until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

I wish we could get this out to everyone!

I'm doing my part. Please do yours.
