Your entire posting about what you want to live by. Didn't you even read your own post? Your observation as to how things should work in this world and in this country are Utopian ideals that can never be met!

Dang, I'm off the boards for a day and we already have a new topic 8 pages in. Glad to be back
I sat with my mother at dinner this past weekend and tried to bring up the subject. She completely ignores the ideas of "conspiracy" anything, and like most people in my area, feels that even if there are problems, we are incapable of doing anything about it.

I don't bother to rent space in my mind for the worries of folks who don't see reality. I guess you do, and more power to you. I hope you have a rather large supply of aspirin because you going to need it!
This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.

Anyone noticing the same in the bigger cities? Or is it just Louisville that seems to be out of the loop?

Violent revolution is a bad idea and should be avoided. You vs "them" is not a winning situation. Please watch this video about life without the Rule of Law.
If god forbid there is ever a large armed revolution / conflict in America it's not going to be the things video games are made of.
People you know and love, even those who have nothing to do with the conflict are going to die or have great harm inflicted upon them. 10 guys just broke in with shotguns? Good luck, there is no 911 service, etc. "But me and my boys will protect us." What about when you're out getting food, or whatever?
It's much easier to just work inside the LEGAL framework already in place.
