KrisAnne Hall of TEA Party Nation reminds us again what Liberty is all about, and why it is important to continue to protect it. Read her rousing blog here.
If this describes YOU and you think it’s time to join the fight for Liberty, then volunteer with the Richmond TEA Party. If time is not at your disposal, then consider making a donation today.
Thanks for sharing the blog/article by Ms Hall at Tea Party Nation, that begins thus:
”
If I were the enemy, I would want you to feel alone. I would want you to be overwhelmed. I would want you to become hopeless. It’s the natural law of predator vs. prey. Isolate them, weaken them and make them sink gradually. It is the best and most effectual way to enslave them. Make them think they are alone in their passion and beliefs and the rest of the country really wants my way, the way of the enemy. But that would be a lie. There is nothing further from the truth. How do I know this? Because, I travel this country, see this beautiful land we call America and meet the Patriots; I meet you everywhere I go.
There is a brotherhood among Americans. It is a heartbeat that cannot be denied. It says we were born free and cannot be slaves. It is this sense of Liberty, inherent in the hearts of Americans that makes us the land of the free. So, be the land of the brave, have no fear, Patriot, you are not alone. …”
This is a moving sentiment, and call TEA Party to several realizations:
Ms Hall’s phenomenology is exactly the same experience of isolation, being overwhelmed and hopeless, and being weakened and abuse, that many groups in our community would feel. Gay and lesbian people, people with serious health problems and/or disabilities, the frail elderly, and others. TEA Party ought to reach out to all these to help overcome their isolation, hopelessness, and experiences of abuse.
How does Richmond TEA Party do that?
