>It is time for everyone to ask themselves some questions, and
>attempt to answer those questions honestly.
>
>Under our system of government we are each morally responsible
>for our participation. If you believe there are serious
>problems, is it possible to morally avoid the responsibility of
>trying to correct those problems? How can you say it is hopeless
>to work within the system, and then claim to support the
>Constitution?
>
>If you feel it is hopeless, that only means that you have given up
>hope, and it means that you are not joining with others in seeking
>a solution. If you are not willing to try everything possible now,
>all you can claim in the future is that you gave up; you cannot
>claim that you lived up to your responsibilities. Think about that.
>
>As citizens, if the majority of us say that there is no hope for
>peaceful change, this is almost certain to come true. It is almost
>equally as certain then that there will be change, but that it will
>not be for the better. Is it logical to believe that we can abdicate
>our responsibility now, and think that later our government will
>ever be reformed for the better? We, the people, are the
>government; we do not have the right to abdicate.
>
>Make no mistake, we strongly believe that it is our responsibility
>to be prepared to take whatever steps are necessary to defend our
>freedoms and rights. However, we also strongly believe we have
>lost the claim to call them our "rights" if we show that the only
>way to defend them is through force.
>
>We either believe in the ideals and principles expressed in the
>Declaration of Independence and Constitution, or we do not.
>Even as they prepared for the worst, our nation's founders never
>ceased to participate in the existing legal institutions until they
>were ready to issue a declaration for all the world to see. It was
>the actions taken by men and women demonstrating a commitment
>to the highest principles and ideals that laid the foundation
>for us to claim the moral and eternal right to live as a
>free people able to govern ourselves.
>
>Starting in February we alerted people to some information that
>we had come across, and began suggesting solutions. The
>solutions and suggestions we made were not targeted at single
>issues, because we see that the problem is systemic, it is greater
>than any single issue, thus the plans we suggested contained
>specific details of the first steps to take for a result that would
>be comprehensive and broad in scope.
>
>There have been three types of responses: 1) Enthusiasm that
>someone is suggesting a solution, 2) Neutrality and passivity
>(which we all know is the cause of most of our present
>problems), and 3) Attacks on us personally and/or attacks on
>everything we have suggested.
>
>Interestingly, none of those who have made efforts to dissuade
>others from working with us have proposed or suggested any
>alternatives to us. They clearly are either threatened by new ideas
>or have personal motivations they would rather not be known.
>Certainly, it is obvious they serve no one but themselves, and
>serve no purpose other than to aggravate existing problems and
>prevent peaceful solutions. We are offering well-developed,
>meaningful, legal and peaceful solutions. Our resumes and
>references show decades of being well known for our beliefs and
>actions.
>
>We are facing a powerful, wealthy, and well-organized opposing
>force, which is why we have proposed two methods, each of
>which can help us organize and finance the struggle. We
>presented plans that cost you nothing and actually could provide
>a good income for many of you. One of those methods involves
>using our aggregate financial clout to derive a source of
>funding from fees that we already pay for Internet and
>telecommunications service. This has previously been explained
>in some detail.
>
>We have proposed and outlined how two different organizations,
>one a grassroots coalition, and the other a for-profit business,
>are ready right now to begin taking meaningful action. These
>organizations would each be self financing and could generate
>literally hundreds of millions of dollars over the next year for
>media buys, education, training, etc., all in support of change.
>
>Once we have a large enough number of people (thousands,
>rather than the hundreds that have contacted us), we can begin.
>Any chance for a real solution depends upon the number of
>people that can be shown to have personally expressed their
>interest in seeing it happen.
>
>It is not a matter of working harder, it is a matter of working
>smarter. Fifty thousand people all acting together in 100 cities
>and towns can have a tremendous impact. If that number, all
>across the country, actually coordinated their actions for a few
>hours on a given day...? At the very least our numbers would
>double as others joined in. Think about it.
>
>We need to hear from you! We need you to tell everyone you can
>about these ideas, plans and methods. If there is no point in
>trying, why do you even exist?! If you have suggestions or
>questions, we would be thrilled to hear from you... if you are
>willing to work together. For those of you who have contacted
>us, thank you!
>
>All we ask is that if you want to work on these solutions, let us
>know, spread the word to others, and tell them to let us know. It's
>that simple, and it's a real start.
