Charlie let 15 minutes go by. Then he got in to his car and took off for the 101 Fwy heading north towards Santa Barbara going 90 miles an hour. He passed a CHP car and then pulled over, waiting for the CHP to stop, which it did.
The officer asked for Charlie's license. Charlie told the officer he did not want or need a license.. The officer asked for his name. Informed, the officer asked if there was anything he could do to help. Charlie declined and the officer nodded and returned to his car. Today Charlie still does not have a license.
That should be all of us. Know your rights and stand up for them.
It does not matter if you are an American. All of us are invested with inherent rights before any government existed. Each of us is sovereign over ourselves but over no one else. America is the nation made up of a people who govern themselves. If someone tells you different refer them to Thomas Jefferson.
Those in law enforcement need to understand that the people are the government. We are slow to anger, slow to act. As Thomas Jefferson said so eloquently,
“Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
Freedom is not free, but it is worth the price, We paid that price once and we can do it again.
