IF YOU CARRY A GUN AND WORK FOR THE STATE, A REMINDER OF YOUR OATH.

First off, you don’t work for the State, or the Federal Government, you work for us. Sure, the system we pay for and tolerate and agreed to build may cut you a check, but never forget that the peaceful support and tolerance of an armed republic stands behind the full weight and promise of that pay.

There is a reason why you either voice an Oath, or should have, which obligates you to the protection of our Nation, State and its Laws and the ‘Protection of its People from the oppression of Tyranny, both foreign and domestic.’

You are hopefully, well trained and committed to the foundation of our body of laws which govern our society, with an ultimate primacy of the Constitution and from your jobs standpoint, more importantly, the ‘Bill of Rights’. Never forget, you work for us, in order to make our society a better reflection of the values and society we desire and seek to create. You are not our overlords, our bosses, or in any way our superiors. If anything, you have subjugated yourself to ‘protect and serve’ us, and never forget it.

Now, this is not a threat, this is the promise of millions of ex-military, Eagle Scouts, Firemen, Hunters, Small business owners, citizens who love their country and want it to reflect the best of us, we will actively oppose and seek satisfaction and justice from any abuse of this ‘DUTY’ you have freely chosen to commit yourself to serve. You are not more patriotic because you wear a badge and carry a gun, you are more suspicious from those of us who are so Patriotic we would not trust ourselves with the gravity of the DUTY you have chosen, unwisely, to serve. Serve it well, or quit. Expect no sympathy from me or any other American Patriot who tolerates the necessity of your job, challenges it when we don’t, and holds your service to the highest standard of professional execution, only when necessary.

To the Secret Service special protectors to past and present High state office holders, a pointed warning. You, my not-friends are the Praetorian Guard of our supposedly free nation. This nation has been corrupted and coopted by your tolerance of abuse of power in the persons holding the offices you are by DUTY sworn to protect. You are also by OATH obliged to PROTECT THE PEOPLE FROM TYRANNY, JACKASS. Every time that corrupt fool pisses on the body of laws and conduct befitting the office he has been ALLOWED to hold IN TRUST, with OUR POWER. You, ARE OATH OBLIGATED TO QUIT.

When you don’t you pathetic excuse for an American, you stand guard, take silver, treason your country and its people, while the abuse of power and the violation of your own Oath takes place.

True character is what you do when you know you won’t get caught.

Conscience is what you can tolerate facing with open honesty in the mirror every morning, knowing for a fact that you are that person.

Show true character, and a Conscience, look in the mirror and act accordingly.

Don’t like the way your country is governed by those chosen to represent us? QUIT.
