Two weeks ago, four men were arrested by federal marshals for coming to the assistance of Ed and Elaine Brown.  These are four fine men who love this country and are willing to fight for the freedoms for which America stands.

        The old saw that freedom isn’t free stands as true today as it ever did.  Being a true American is not an easy task.  It means standing firm against injustice and not backing down when the going gets tough.  Our founding fathers put it all on the line when they “pledge(d) our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor” when they stood against English tyranny.  Many of them did lose their lives and their fortunes; but not one of them lost their sacred honor.  Because of those brave men and women two hundred and thirty years ago, you and I have been given the great gift of liberty. 

        What are we doing with this gift?  Are we cherishing it, or are we taking it for granted?  Are we working to keep it whole, or are we squandering it?  Are we standing brave against tyranny and official oppression, or are we bending as whimpering children when confronted with injustice?  Do we stand for our neighbor’s justice, or do we turn away, grateful that this is not happening to us?

        All that is needed for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.  My friends, we have all done nothing for far too long; that is why we are today living under tyranny in a police state.  Injustice to one is injustice to all.  When they come to your neighbor’s house, it will not be long before they come to yours.  Then who will stand with you?

        We are living in an Orwellian time, make no mistake about it.  Look around you at all the surveillance, the efforts for the national ID without which eventually you will be unable to get a job, have a bank account, or even purchase items at a store.  The list goes on.

        These four men are accused of helping two people who have never yet been shown any law we were convicted of violating.  Ask yourself how anyone could be tried for breaking a law that does not exist.  How far do injustice and corruption in the courts go?  Due process is a thing of the past; if you are brought into court for any reason, do not expect justice or fair play.  Marshall Moinier yesterday said that they would be coming after us.  That means that they plan on killing us for the sake of some money they have never proved we owe.  We have not changed our position, and will not bend to their tyranny.  Remember, the marshal also said on at least two occasions that they know we have broken no laws, but they will come for us anyway.  If this is not convincing you that we are in a police state, what will?

        Danny, Jason, Bob, and Reno need the support of us all.  We need to get in the faces of these unlawful agents, prosecutors, judges, police, sheriffs, etc. and let them know they will not be allowed to break the law.  Stand firm for these men; they are fighting for you.
