"It's Not Just Our Constitution" - A Russian, as AR was, speaks.
Posted by Zenphamy 11 years, 2 months ago to Philosophy
I found this on a LEO site discussing cop's duties to obey the Constitution.
In one sense, it's inspiring. In the main, it's scary as hell.

Not related to the topic of the thread, but I have one question.
Why is this Russian guy always trying to school us on OUR Constitution?

Because it is not only YOURS. Free men everywhere have looked towards the USA and her founding principles and embraced them as hope for their own future. But now, particularly as they watch the soap opera in the White House unfold with this new administration and the climate in the media they feel that America has lost her way, and therefore is no one left on the entire earth for free men to emulate. There are Russians who watch horrified as USA implements, some of the same tactics that their own overlords used on them. They have seen this all before and they wish to warn America in hope that she will return to herself once more, believing that if the last bastion of free individualist men succumb to Marxist ideas that it will usher in dark times for the world. This is why it is not just your Constitution.
