A debate on whether a people should have stood up for their rights!

[Calimachon]

I am not anti-semetic in any way or form before someone throws that at me.  I have Jewish friends across the world whom I have quizzed over the contents of the following video.  Their answer was that  before the Haulocaust Jewish people were a peaceful people.  But since the Haulocaust they had learnt to look after themselves and be assertive.

Please take the following video as a debate on liberty and look for the quotes from Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln.

I know this lecture is all about American Liberty but it applies to all nations.

We the people are the rightful owners of our liberty and should draw our line at the point we won't be shoved around.

I know I am on dangerous ground so let me know how you think how you feel about freedom and liberty in Jersey.  Who draws the line?  Why are these lines drawn?  I don't want anachy. But think about it when will the ridiculous regulations end and who are benefitting from them:

I apologise if this offends anyone in advance.

Very true!!
I wish the people in this Island would stand up and march to the Royal Square and demand the removal of certain members of the States or at least have them all stand for election now.

Could we do this in Jersey or would we need to ask the Bailiff for permisson?  No one had to pay to watch but it was a sort of public gathering.....found this on facebook......

The Union should start the ball rolling and the rest of the people join in on the march to the Royal Square.
Demanding that the States listen to the people.
Back in the 70's when the States workers went on a weeks strike, the States went over to England to see if the Army could come over and do the work that the States workers did so as to break the strike.
A member of the Union in the crowd at St.Andrew's Park where the mass meeting was being held , stood up and said "Never accept humble pie until it is served to you on a Bayonet!" Need to say nobody broke the strike.
The British Government sent the States home with their tail between their legs. This is the vsort of thing that we should be doing now!
