Amerikans are not too soft nor lacking in weaponry… for the fight is not just about to be on the street… it has been waged on the psyche.
Try getting Billy Bob off his Easy Boy and that beer out of his hand when he thinks ( has been media programmed ) to hate those not of his kin!
Try convincing the mother of two who just lost her husband in a war for waged to keep her safe and ‘secure’ from Arabs / Muslims / the boogie man… and she’s now dependent on a government check or worse, a government job….
We are up against ignorance and what we all struggle with: our deceitful hearts.
May God bring the Light into the hearts already darkened…. may He bless those not seeing.

In America, this will not happen, America is Armed
ready to shoot their way out, which is why Obama
wants all the guns to himself Like Hitler before,
first came registration then confiscation then public
abuse, those who have no guns are slaves to those who
do have guns.
America keep your guns you will need them soon!
Tax payers pay for all Gov. Weapons you pay to be
abused by Homeland security-TSA, rape and radiate, I
hope Americans take notice the rope tug of war,
pulling down containers great idea. GET IT WISCONSIN,
rope hook and pull the doors open.

US citizens aren’t too soft to protest. The people you see in this video feel more desperate than most Americans seem to at the moment. However, when the workers of WI felt desperate they showed up in record numbers and that kind of action is slowly spreading across the US as more and more citizens wake up to how poor they actually are. We’ve had plenty of domestic disturbances in this country’s short history, including the civil rights movement, the labor movement, and our own civil war. When times get bad enough (and they will) the American people will act. The mind control in America is severe but misery and entitlement ultimately outweigh political ideology. The question is are we too late? - TheEnd

These are braver than those stateside…
Sometimes, more than words are needed.
Class warfare.
The shills on the side of the money printers have yet to wake up.. or they haven’t a choice for they too have a monthly debt obligation to pay…
Inspiring.

Such action requires a political awareness and
Report thisdemocratic consciousness and a commitment foreign to
the “citizens” at the cold heart of the Western empire.
Only Eastern man seems to have grasped the power of
collective action, understands the strength that lies
in unity, and has the commitment to persevere in the
face of a brutal and repressive Police State. A nation
of cowards, they are not. I wish I could say the same
of us.
