A lawful revolution is in response to government that abjectly violates its own laws, and refuses all reasonable offers to return government limits within its own constitution. It is a revolution that requests its own law enforcement to do their job to arrest obvious criminals in their own government. The central crimes are in unlawful wars that kill millions, and massive economic fraud that harms billions and loots trillions of the 99%’s earnings every year.
Government crimes was America’s challenge that the Continental Congress and Thomas Jefferson addressed in our Declaration of Independence. Please give two minutes of your attention to this central text of being American:
“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 effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.”
We the People hold these patriots as heroes today. I am a history teacher: the Founders considered themselves loyal to their government BECA– USE its history was one of freedom from tyranny, and overthrowing would-be kings that attempted dictatorial rather than limited government.
The American Revolution only occurred a year after its own government attacked its own citizens under an unlawful standing army attempted to disarm its citizens at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts. American leaders wrote and offered the “Olive Branch Petition” asking their government to restrain itself within its own laws and essentially forgiving its military-murders of American civilians.
Our government responded in 1775 by calling such Americans “traitors” with no retreat from their orders to arrest American leadership whose only “crime” was asking for lawful government.
That is history; this is today.
As always for today, we ask for peaceful, lawful response to what we allege in good faith as “emperor has no clothes” obvious crimes centering in war and money, and obfuscated by a 1% cartel/corporate media.
My only suggestion to the 99% is to let your heart and mind guide your beautiful, unique, and powerful self-expressions.

I too wish to offer my services if anyone has ideas on how we can all connect and go forth.
Just a thought that is continual and spoken about many times on many sites but –If we could contact all or a large amount of the sites that are espousing of this and bring all together on one main site it would be a revolution in itself, then we get more organized, from preppers to posting sites to news sites, mortgage sites, there are so many now that cover this type of issue. Can we do this? Are there any helpers? Any movers and shakers? Mike you are very good at notifying the public, do you have any ideas or voice here? Anyone you can think of to put in place a universal platform for our distaste and voice of Americans on this issue of massive fraud? This could be a petition site, and a site to bring up charges or remove them from office if need be and of course we will need some legal advise form time to time although lawyers are contracted to the court first and foremost there will be some that are not for profit but for freedom and a release from slavery which would again be a move back to —-for the people by the people of the people. Please reply if you have an answer or an idea. I have my two hands to offer. Anyone else?
All men are created equal?. It’s an outrage HSBC Bank USA hasn’t had its U.S. banking licenses revoked for money laundering around the world.
Bank crime shouldn’t pay.
