Its time to light the torch of Revolution once again. The fire of freedom still burns, but is slowly fading away due to the gradual taking of power by the Federal Government and the money manipulators. As a member of the military, I have sworn to protect the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. And with your help, I intend to do just that.
