Well that post was(I think) addressed to someone else, but his posts aren't there anymore.

Sorry I can't wish luck on you since you are anti-America. Hard to believe someone in college would be so foolish. Sorry about being so blunt.

How do you know? Anyone willing to kill Americans in a radical overthrow of our government is clearly anti-American in my book.

During the Hungarian revolution, patriots killed government officials and police who supported the government. History records that NO ONE has sympathy for the AVH or other government goons during that time.

And ANYONE who tries to limit ones freedom of speech - for instance by telling that other person they "better watch what you are saying or else I'm going to turn you in" (anyone you know do this recently??) is anti American in my book

Another ludicrous analogy.

So, Summers, was the election of the Mátyás regime the result of free and popular election? Well of course not! The reality is that your argument is closer to the Stalinist of the Hungarian Communist Party than any democratic faction within Hungary since clearly the popular choice of the people could not be respected.

I didn't rat out anyone [unlike other posters] but will notify the FBI if these radicals continue to plan treason against America.

trea⋅son – the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.

Treason is a relative term. I find the federal government to be treasonous to the fundamentals of our constitution. They have betrayed the trust and confidence of the American people, and actively employ treachery to convince us of some sort of necessity to spend more money or abuse our military for world conquest.

I am sorry you believe god wants you to defend your country even when it violates the rights of its citizens, seizes property, creates usury out of the inflation of the dollar, and misuses its power and position to lie us into a war that has done far more damage than any good. And you have the supposedly free media who only care about "their guy". Its silly that now the democrats are the warmongers and the Republicans are complaining about it? The whole damn system is corrupt to the core, and you are telling me how it is unpatriotic for me to pass around the idea of trying to return our country to liberty, true liberty. And then threatening me as if I am some kind of criminal.

You should be ashamed of yourself.
