It is a terrible thing to live so long as to see your country’s ruin
2023-04-07
Note from an old friend:

It is a terrible thing to live so long as to see your country’s ruin. Yet my rage demands action that my younger and healthier self would take. Looking back to days long ago as an active duty officer, in order to fulfill my oath, in the current state of subversion of the Constitution, I would have only the choice of resignation or mutiny, and resignation is only running away from the demands of the oath. This cuts to the core of the oath we took as officers. That rests on the inherent but heretofore latent tension between two vital parts of the oath — to obey the orders of those appointed over you and to defend against all enemies and domestic.

What does the honest man who looks upon his oath as sacred do when he concludes that those appointed over him ARE the domestic enemy? When the Constitution has been overthrown from within, by definition there are NO constitutional means to defend our liberties as expressed in that document. Fight for that new beginning. Do not go quietly into that long night. How will you explain to God someday that you cowered as your grandchildren were cast into the furnace of Marxism?
