No, that goes beyond free speech, this is advocating violence against the government, and is against the law. They over stepped the line, and belong in jail.

You seem quite fond of throwing people in jail. Would you likewise have thrown Thomas Jefferson in jail?

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it's natural manure."

They are advocating the forceful overthrow of the government. Hmmmmm, isn’t that defined as treason?

As did Jefferson and Washington. Revolution is a time-honored American tradition. You do realize that we celebrate July 4th not as an excuse to eat burgers and lounge at the pool, but to remember our Founding Fathers and their acts of treason against their own government?

Actually Cotton, it you who has been advocating people being thrown into jail, down in the States Rights section

Really. I dont seem to recall having written any posts lately where I advocated jailing anyone. Perhaps you could find the posts youre referring to?

 But, you can’t compare these idiots with Thomas Jefferson, are you?

Not at all. Im saying that they both advocate revolution when all else fails.

These are nuts who are advocating getting rid of a government........

Im sure King George must have muttered something like that.

This isn’t about revolution, WE are the government. This is treason, isn’t it?

Sorry, I am cooking dinner,

Excellent! I'm famished!

>>And Im sure King George must have muttered something like that to his court.<<

Oh, are you advocating a revolution? You think that our duly elected leaders are corrupt? I would like some concrete proof of that. If you don’t like the government, we have a way of changing the government, you might have heard about it, it is called an election. You know, where Obama got 65 million votes.

Are you advocating revolution?

>>First amendment, baby!<<

You need to reread or read the Constitution. Freedom of speech doesn’t allow one to foment violence, and advocating the forceful overthrow of the government is treason, and not allowed.

WE are the government, You lost the election, so you don’t like it? Run a better candidate.

For you, I will make some brain food.

Ok. Grilled Mahi-mahi sounds good.

>>Only as a last resort.<<

I wonder what the FBI would say about this.

I am tired of people who lose elections talking about revolt. How childish can you get? IF people wanted to go in the direction of what you believe, we would change the government by elections and amendments. To consider revolution is the height of arrogance. It means you are so much smarter than the American People that you know best. YOU and your friends were NOT elected as G-d or Dictator over this country. If you don’t like what the American people elect, then leave, or WORK to change it within the system. You haven’t done that, all you and your friends do is practice shooting, well there is NO place in this country for your arrogance. Either PUT up by running and working for change, or SHUT UP.

That was quite a rant Toby.

Thank you for your kind words.
