I find it interesting that the people who took part in the U.S. Revolution in the 1700's are patriots, in that they commited treasonous acts against their government. But today, if a person does the "patriotic" things that would bring about another revolution against an oppressive goverment in the U.S., they would be labled criminals or even, gasp, terrorists. I guess we have all forgotten that Thomas Jefferson condoned bloody revolution from time to time to feed the roots of the tree of liberty. Of course, during the 1700's, the rebels in the colonies had weapons comparable to the British troops. How many civilians now have automatic weapons, microwave weapons, jets with rockets attached to them, radar systems, protective vests and helmets, tanks, machine guns, claymore mines, etc.?
It's much easier now to talk revolution than to actually conduct a revolution against a government now. At least in the U.S. The powers that be have seen to that. I once knew a man who lived in Loveland, Ohio who owned an armored vehicle, but those days are gone. It's now the information age, with the internet, etc. Who was it who said the pen is mightier than the sword? Maybe the info highway is the best way to incite a revolution and perhaps it would be less bloody. Just my rambling thoughts.

Definitely, there will be many among the hacker community, who will be the new Henry's, Jeffersons, and Washingtons.

It may be the only way to bring down the mammoth.

The way I see it...ATS has done wonders already. The fact that the site is still available amazes me completely...



Anyone who is toatally serious up here knows that we can't talk about actuall operations on this board. See "Code/Crypt" for details.

Everyone is is backing up theyre claims is doing just that. Preparing. The tempature is hot, and the water is already beggining to boil. Te BEST things we can do right now, are educate others, offer ideas and keep the information flowing.

Peronsonally, to "overthrow" the goverment.. would require cooperation that we cannot discuss here. Again. See the Code/Crypt thread.

It would be a good idea to do it from within though... Climb the ranks asa goverment official to supply constant, factuall information via safe communication methods to thos who could use it. Yes. Treason. Yes. Espionage.

Bloodline. My father was in the business, and ANYONE who knows even the slightest things about war will tell you one of two things.
1) War, is in fact, a hell
2) Information is THE MOST POWERFULL WEAPON YOU CAN OWN.

Destroy from within. What ever is comming, is comming and the plan to start a new govermentS is already set in motion.

One of the things that should stop is posting threads with title of "some thread topic should stop". This one ia an example.

The seeds of thought get planted, people read and realize that they might not be alone in their desire for change or truth. That is how a movement can grow.
