As the legislature continues their junior high games, the courts play gotcha, and the governor has completely lost touch with her subjects; the anger of the commoners is reaching a boiling point. When we take a branding iron to every twelfth adult and burn their foreheads "FELON"; When we watch pretentious senators tell us that we were too stupid to pass ballot initiatives.... We are ready to gather and occupy. There are good people working the halls of the legislature. There are dedicated and humane state workers. There are commoners with more sense than the bosses who run this state. We stand by while you do nothing about the pirates with badges who shake down travelers, confiscating booty with the claim that "it coulda come from selling drugs". Liberty is a principle deeply engrained in the gospel message, but the folks who bear the title of "Honorable" seem to have forgotten it. We are a people yearning to live free. We want the oppressors of the state off our backs. We are willing to endure some danger from our neighbors in exchange for that precious liberty. We are sick of the nanny state telling us what is good for us and ruining our lives under the pretense of saving us from ourselves. Our lawmakers have brought us shame. But there remains little that will restore that former trust until the politicians quit playing their little power trips, manipulating the system, and start letting representative democracy take it's course. |
