Steyn: States Of The Unions
(click to enlarge)
Please read Mark Steyn's latest, and think hard on this money graf:
***
...If the new class war is between “public servants” and the rest of us, some countries no longer have enough of “the rest of us” even to put up a fight. That's why you can't wait to fight in the last ditch. The longer you wait to stand up against the "public service" unions, the less your chance of winning...
***
Understand - the Bad People have all of the instruments of state power in their hands, plus more than 14 million thugs-in-waiting, along with a significant dollop of unionized police officers, for manifesting various forms of street justice.
What you got, tough guy?
Punk words on some fargin' keyboard?
Huh, fatty?

You once said:
- We're screwed
- There's gonna be a fight
- Let's win
If this reader could put in a request, it would be:
Less posting about "we're screwed", more posting about "let's win".
Yes, FreeFor needs to know that the situation is dire. But more than that, we need encouragement and exhortation.
Thanks for your blog. I appreciate your writing.
LET'S WIN!
I agree with OldsMobile. If we want to win then let's start talking about it.
Olds:
Thanks for your comment.
I get your critique and acknowledge its validity.
But understand please that I try to put some motivating energy into each post.
Hence, the "union activist" persona at the end of this post. In the right-minded, it is designed to exhort them towards confronting the thugs who threaten our country.
Successful or not, that was the intent.
I hope you also saw this piece last month, which again was designed to help people think their way through to victorious actions.
But let me also say this -- they who look to others for leadership in what lies ahead are setting themselves up for a fall.
You have a brain.
You know the difference between chickensh*t and chicken salad.
Figure it out yourself, and then execute.
There is not now, nor will there ever be, a FreeFor leadership council that will issue orders, approve uniforms, grant fiefs, commission officers, and award medals.
Instead, it will be a very ugly, very local, very tactical battle between multiple tribes in thousands of AOs across the continent.
With one and only one imperative:
My tribe wins. Screw everything else.
Good luck to you and yours.
Taylor:
Read deeper.
Think.
You'll get it.
These guys are gonna make me get out of my mom's basement if they're not careful.
(That was a joke.)
Good post, CA. Many of your posts of a similar nature serve as fuel for my PT.
They make me forget about buying "x" (insert modern frivolous object here), and focus on buying or making item "y" (insert useful item directly related to long term survival and sustainability).
I find that "we're screwed" helps me acknowledge the reality of "there's gonna be a fight". Without that acknowledgment, cannot be a "let's win".
I also agree that any future conflict will be very decentralized, very local, without much -if any- coordination.
Anything else is not going to work, at least not at first.

Well if the FreeFor leadership council won't do any of the things that you mention... will it at least issue Letters of Marque and Reprisal? You know, something to hang over the mantle and show the GKs when it's over and done with?

Concerned American,
Thanks for your response.
If you'd allow me to, I would like to send you a blog subscription fee of $12.
My email is mdrewrankin@gmail.com. Please let me know how/where you want me to send the money.
Again, thanks for what you do.
14 million Thugs in waiting.....
OK 14 million out of a population of 300+ million about 6% of the population, so what. I think I remember a story about how 3% of the some Colonials fought and won against the Strongest Military Force in the WORLD and about 30% of their Fellow Colonialist.
I say;
They're SCREWED(royally)
There's Gonna be a Fight
They are Get THEIR Ass's Kicked.
Public Sector Unions make up 50% of the TOTAL Union Force in The Country. And the Private Sector Union Force won't back Public Sector Unions or at worst Private Sector Unions will Be Split. Why do you really think that THEY are going all out in this one Battle....
Because THEY Know(even if most people don't) that this IS THEIR LAST STAND and when they are defeated here it's the end of the line and the free ride Will be over. Almost makes me feel sorry for them, Almost.

PS and if You Gentlemen need Pep-Talks sorry but you ain't gonna get it. We are gonna get it done because it HAS to be done and it won't be easy. But THAT makes no difference It Still has to be done and WE are the ONES who Have to do it.
"What you got, tough guy?"
If you must know how 280 rounds .30-06 AP preloaded in Garand clips per sealed ammo can for starters?
Also a Deep Remorseless hatred for unions having been terrorized by rank and file union members/thugs on Several occasions.
And Patience.
I think this is the "money graph"
That's what "collective bargaining" is about: It enables unions rather than citizens to set the price of government. It is, thus, a direct assault on republican democracy, and it needs to be destroyed. Unlovely as they are, the Greek rioters and the snarling thugs of Madison are the logical end point of the advanced social democratic state: not an oppressed underclass, but a spoiled overclass, rioting in defense of its privileges and insisting on more subsidy, more benefits, more featherbedding, more government.
Let's think about this some more. If anyone is the dreaded brownshirts, it is these people. This is something that needs to percolate to the surface. I don't care if the histories are written 100 years from now, I want the people of the future to know I died at the hands of government-backed thugs.
Also, for an alleged army of 3 million hardcores with deadly killer training, we sure are pretty good at hiding that fact. And if we are 3 million and we're as well-armed and well-trained as we say, what's the holdup?
slaves whisper about freedom, lines in the sand and winning. All the while bowing to the master and the house slaves at every turn. Sad the only vestige of freedom is the vague talk about it.
The truth is we are all slaves.
We were born slaves.
Want your freedom? Do you even know what freedom is?
Freedom and winning is measured in blood an sacrifice.
What are you willing to do to "win?"
Ornelicus
"My tribe wins"
We need do clearly define what we think "win" is.
The goblins think it is the amassing or power and/or plunder.
I define it as survival of my tribe. That would require defense of our sustinance.
What worries me is the number of tribes that will give in to man's fallen nature and seek the goblins' path.
PF:
There'll be other mementos over the hearth for those who make it through.
:-)
Ornelicus:
You couldn't be suggesting that yakking on a blog (as blogger or commenter) is only slightly less effective in advancing the cause of freedom than onanism, could you?
:-)
Olds:
Your offer is kind and appreciated.
A better use for the twelver is a pile of .22LR and lotsa practice with your handgun shooting eyeball-sized targets.
Keep resisting.
CA,
of course I am.

Any Chance we could convince the SEIU’s purple people beaters that Happy D is a bank manager?
Korean war vets that had the misfortune to use ought six A.P. on large groups charging them report it would often hit multiple attackers. Through one into the next with the usual ought six type of effectiveness.
A.P. Is often referred to as crowd pleasers by people with a sick sense of humor. In this case Thugs busters would seem a better term.
All you have to do is crack open Wisconsin's Consolidated Annual Financial Report to realize their 'budget crisis' is BULLSHIT.
The enemy has looted America and now they're liquidating all potential resistance-unions among the top categories since they're already organized and motivated. The gov. lackeys protesting? They'll get nicked less than us 'murikans.
