I am a Law abiding citizen, I am a husband, I am a brother, I am a son, I am a Patriot, I am an Active Duty Military Police Officer, I am a Constitutionalist and by the hand of my God whoever he shall be I will defend my Sovereignty and Liberty by the means that the Constitution Grants me, whether it be with civility or force. "We will say to the Powers that be, Be it with your blood or ours we have come to water the tree of liberty"
And what country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.
The time is now I am with you.

God bless you, Joshua and welcome aboard. You've included some of my favorite quotes by Jefferson, I appreciate it. My son was an MP in Desert Storm; he's now working as a detective at my old department - LVMPD. I hope you'll continue to serve your country as a civilian Peace Officer when you muster out.
Hey FC2
Iam glad to see that iam not the only one unafraid to be active duty enlisted to come out and say were Oathkeepers. I think a lot of people are afraid of repercussion if they do. But saying you will not obey unlawful orders and actually not doing it, are two different things. I focus on the Principle of the OKs and that i believe that its the right thing to stand for, rather than be fear full of what my chiefs might say.

When the chiefs get bent out of shape, just point to your Oath. If you are in line with the Constitution, you are covered. Of course, everyone in the military knows... if they want to get you, they will get you. It ain't easy being an Oath Keeper.
Thanks for standing up!
Im saddend that you are a law abiding citizen. That is somthing our founding fathers were not. If they had been we would still be British. Thank you for your service.
As former General and President Dwight D. Eisenhower once said...
"Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels - men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, may we never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion."
