The Rock River Patriots will be having a meeting this Friday June 14th at 6:00pm in Fort Atkinson at the Dwight Foster Library. The Dwight Foster Library is located at 209 Merchants Avenue in Fort Atkinson.
At this meeting, we will receive an update on the WI budget process from Rep. Steve Nass. We will also discuss the recent “Big Brother Government Spying” revelations that have come to light and hear the story of one whistle-blower on this issue.
The RRP have continually spoke out against the Patriot Act and the Federal Gov’t spying on American citizens without a warrant. In light of all the recent scandals and abuses of power, why would we trust them to do the right thing. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Instead, we need to bind the government down by the chains of the Constitution”, as one of our Founding Fathers had said. The government’s primary function is to protect our freedom and keep us free, not to provide “cradle to the grave” security. When government keeps us free and protects our liberty, we are made safer. However, when government assumes ultimate power and authority in order to protect us, they will ultimately always protect themselves (government).
