To Fellow Patriots: Revolution or Civil War is NOT the Answer (Not Yet)

  I have noticed in the social media there are "gun ho" fellow Patriots that the dire situation we are facing the danger of democrat-socialists and Muslims who refuse to assimilate will force citizens to orchestrate a revolution or a civil war. Some actually seem to look forward to it. I also found that most of those with this mindset never served in the military or been involved in combat. 
  We the People can solve the situation in several ways rather than open violence. A revolution would not result in what happened after the American Revolution that the Founders so wisely created: a constitutional republic. It would be chaos and self-destruction. Armed conflict must be be the last resort. Remember, the ruling class is elected and it is our responsibility to ensure those that operate our government are qualified and sincere in their tasks required.
  Our revolution against British rule was an exception in history for revolutions before and after did not result in a better situation except for one: Republic of Turkey. I will explain.
  It was the wisdom of our Founders who created a unique constitution and government complete with proper checks and balances, as well as amendments that addressed rights and liberties that too many take for granted today. 




The United States became a role model for nations of the world, but unfortunately few attempted to imitate its success. Indeed, after generations, the system became weakened because Americans failed to realize what political elements and individuals were doing to alter what the Founders so wisely created. When Benjamin Franklin was asked what form of government was decided upon as he emerged from a constitutional congress debate, he replied in his cynical manner: "A republic if we can keep it". Indeed, other Founders also warned citizens that what had been created so meticulously could easily be undermined if citizens did not insist upon virtues that require to keep a republic. They certainly agreed that democracy, especially in its purest form, is not as beneficial as a republic whose foundations are the "rule of law" and not "rule of the mob". 
  Today, thanks to We the People allowing the Democrats to take over our educational system have and are constantly referring to our form of government as a democracy, from which that political entity derived its name; just as the Republican Party took its name from the form of government the founders created - a republic. 
  Suzette Padilla wrote an essay describing the uniqueness of the American Revolution and then shows her ignorance by declaring: "America was the first to make a democracy, which influenced other countries to do the same." She is not alone because our educational system is providing misinformation and leaving out or altering history as what really happened and what the Founders intended. Now those in charge of our educational system have become emboldened and are promoting Marxism in the form of democratic-socialism (as though it makes it better) to replace our constitutional republic. Members of the Democrat Party have stated publicly that the ruling class knows better than the citizens what is good for them, an excuse to control our lives from "cradle to grave". Too many Americans welcome this because they are falsely believing that government can protect them from the pitfalls of natural life. Government, those that operate the government, cannot. It's a false promise.
  France had a revolution against monarchy and the result was a system as bad, if not worse than what had been overthrown. This has been the norm when it comes to revolutions in history, except as I stated in the case of the Republic of Turkey.
  Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was the founder of the Republic of Turkey. Like our George Washington, he began as a general opposing the ruling Ottoman regime and also preventing European nations like Britain from turning Turkey into a colony. He did not accept colonization via Europe, but he did accept Western civilization. 
  As the new republic's president, he made amazing improvements: 
  • Formed a modern, secular state, still Muslim but without the theocracy.
  • He opened thousands of new schools to ensure that all citizens received an education.
  • He got rid of Arabic and had scholars form a Latin-based Turkish written language.
  • Turkish women received equal civil and political rights.In 1930, women voted for the first time.
  • A parliament was formed in the fashion of western civilization. 
  • The Islamic caliphate was dissolved. (1924), in the same year Sharia courts were abolished. He separated the "religion from the state". 
  • He encouraged women and men to adopt European clothing fashion replacing the Ottoman Fez. (Hat Law of 1925) While his wife continued to cover her head in tradition, his daughters provided models of fashion for Turkish women. 
  • Polygamy was abolished. 
  • In 1924, Atatürk invited John Dewey, an American educational reformer to help establish a proper educational system. 
  • He encouraged Turks to wear western style clothing and made himself an example.
  In August of 1925, Atatürk revealed his separation of religion and state in this address
In the face of knowledge, science, and of the whole extent of radiant civilization, I cannot accept the presence in Turkey's civilized community of people primitive enough to seek material and spiritual benefits in the guidance of sheiks. The Turkish republic cannot be a country of sheiks, dervishes, and disciples. The best, the truest order is the order of civilization. To be a man it is enough to carry out the requirements of civilization. The leaders of dervish orders will understand the truth of my words, and will themselves close down their lodges [tekke] and admit that their disciplines have grown up.
  Sadly, other Islamic nations did not use the Republic of Turkey as a role model; just as Europe did not follow the example of the United States. Ironically, the Republic of Turkey under Erdogan is slipping into the mindset and corruption of what Atatürk had successfully replaced. We are having problems here in our homeland as well with the media being a mouthpiece for the democrat socialists
  The point here is that do not wish for another revolution or especially a civil war because it will not end up the way imagined or occurred in history. 
  We the People must continue to get rid of the "Deep State" that has worked its way in our government and return our educational system back to sensibility and the control of the People. Marxists need to be removed and mandatory civics curriculum that teaches the Constitution, explains its success and relays how the Founders created our constitutional republic with no role model to follow. 
  We need to use the power of our vote and insist that our voting system is not corrupted with voting fraud and ballot manipulation through a national voter ID and other actions to prevent fraud. If not, our legal votes are null and void. 
  We need to demand that our educational system no longer be operated by Marxists and social engineers. 
  We must enlighten fellow Americans who have become lost in the muck of false promises of the democratic socialists and that giving up our liberties and altering our Constitution is not going to be a better situation. 
  We must ensure that our 1st and 2nd Amendment remains intact and not have a judicial system that "legislates from the bench". Legislation is the responsibility of Congress.
  We must be more responsible in who we choose to elect to operate OUR government - that means state government, not just federal.
  We need to insist that trade unions not have control over government employment - that is the job of the executive and legislative branches.
  All of these ills have slowly encroached over the decades and not enough of us have noticed. History has shown us that Marxism, whether communist, socialist or democratic socialist, does not work as well as our constitutional republic and we must not imitate what has happened to Europe because of their foolish notion that socialism is best. 
  We cannot capitulate to the Islamic movement to subjugate our homeland or become a power within our government pointing to adding Sharia to the law system. If Muslims want Sharia law and do not wish to assimilate - they can return from whence they came. They should follow the example of Atatürk or our Founders. If the Democrats call this "oppression" - remind them that it was a Democrat president who signed an executive order to incarcerate Japanese Americans in 1940s without charges or trial and placing them in camps unjustly. 
  If We the People expect to reform our government back to the principles and rule of law of the Constitution, we must elect constitutionalists - not "populists", or people not qualified, or people with questionable backgrounds. Indeed, if we are to expect our government to be reformed properly, we must first reform ourselves, our culture and society. Our loyalty should be towards the Constitution and rule of law, not any specific political entity. 
  Members of Congress should be reviewing what laws and regulations have been passed that deters those principles and those that are intrusive. The most important responsibility of Congress is the budget and it has a poor record in that area.
