MY TWO CENTS

My two cents

 

Mary,

 

I certainly don’t hate you for expressing your frustrations and concerns, as I know your sincerity is genuine. Believe me, I’ve been in these conversations for many years with folks of good will who are equally as frustrated in government and feel that a line is being drawn in the sand. I also know regarding most of the cumulative elements that have brought us to this point in our times, you “get it.” And what makes it all the more interesting is that you are an Arizona lady (If I  understand you correctly you were raised out west) Craig is a northern “Copperhead” from NYC, and I am a Southern boy raised in rural NC. Though we come from different sectors of the country with distinct cultures, we mostly share the same ideological commonality with respect to Biblical and pro-American values. That is exactly what the original Confederation (covenant) of States was, as John Adams so accurately put it.

 

Regarding secession – Craig and I have never advocated for secession, but rather instead separation. Some might say that is splitting hairs, yet one is a legal precedent regarding a violated covenant between other principles (States), while the other is a natural right as outlined by Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence regarding “People.” The Constitution was derived from the principles contained in the Declaration. It is unable to stand without the Declaration, yet the Declaration can stand without the Constitution. It is the spirit from within the Declaration that Craig and I speak.

 

The Confederate States government never surrendered and therefore, technically, the secession of Southern States remains. The Cherokee Confederates in Oklahoma led by Cherokee General Stan Waite never surrendered. They are still under a “cease fire.” Again, this is also why we don’t press secession as that has already occurred. This was mainly due to a (at that time) tyrannical federal government, which quickly morphed into a national government (more apropos) immediately following the war in 1865. I could go deeper in the weeds, however I’m trying to be as brief as possible.  

 

Getting back to modern-day – natural separation has been occurring for the last several decades, and is currently happening as you have mentioned. The difference is, the tentacles of the Politburo on the Potomac leviathan has elongated with hyper-drive speed at the State and local levels through various Marxist schemes, like Alinsky’s “rules of radicals.” As you well know, academia and the media along with powerful corporations are also assimilated as this heinous heist has been gearing up since the turn of the 20^th century. Many of us saw this years ago and sounded the clarion call because the Gestapo graffiti was all over the wall. Americana is being ravaged and decimated to make room for full-blown Communism. This makes secession untenable because State and local government is CONTAMINATED and conditioned to believe that secession is a “lost Cause”, slavery, Jim Crow, racism “thing.”

 

Every institution is contaminated with these Marxist ideals, including most religious institutions. Nothing is sacred anymore. Elected leaders are either bought-off or threatened to violate their oath. Like-minded people for SEPARATION are not ceding ground… but rather organizing, regrouping and reinforcing with like-minded communities to shut-down, not give away, to the Amalekites hell-bent on amoeba-like destruction. The “People” are applying the natural laws contained in Jefferson’s text, which are timeless:        

 

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness.

 

Local, State, and the National government are three heads of the same dragon. They lie, steal, cheat, BETRAY, INSULT, and TORMENT the People incessantly. All politics are no longer “local” with millions pumped in from the outside to maintain and grow Communist strongholds. They represent special interests and foreign handlers with shameless obedience while trampling over the liberties of the people. They are the ones who have ceded ground to the enemy. SEPARATION is truly the last line of defense, other than the Will of The Father.

 

Our Revolutionary heroes pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor. My Confederate ancestors gave (mostly, I’m here today because two G-G-Grand fathers survived) their lives, fortunes, and scared honor. And now, in our era, we have similar challenges. Like them, we are being FORCED.

 

I pray I have sufficiently conveyed our stance regarding “separation.” And I didn’t even get into the spiritual aspects of being “set-apart” as is heavily patterned in the Scripture. That in and of itself is a long talk show.

 

Be blessed Mary.

 

Confederately and Shalom,
