North Korea's last real hope is the one that terrifies the left the most.
One of the most inspiring aspects of history is the way ordinary human beings are able to overcome and defeat evil... whether that evil is in the form of individuals, groups, or regimes. We have seen it over and over again, and even participated in such defeats. We have faith in it... it is the one hope we cling to should we ever need to do the same thing again. And we know we will have to again... and yet again. History has proven that it is inevitable so long as mortals are--well, mortal.
Until recent history, the ability to overthrow wicked leaders has been an even proposition; that is, the farmer fighting could reasonably expect to have the same weapons that the army they were trying to defeat had: shields, spears, arrows, clubs, slingshots, horses, etc. What they didn't have they could make. So it was with both sides--an army supporting a wicked regime could go up against its own countrymen and expect them to be fairly equally equipped. This meant that the final deciding factor in battle was the determination of those fighting. It could go either way.
Then entered the gun. Wicked governments instantly recognized the potential for a massive power shift. If they legislated it so that only THEY could possess guns, it would end the ability of the average man to stop them from any of their designs--wicked and otherwise--thus ensuring their total and complete reign. No matter how committed the people were, there was simply no way they could expect to defeat a system armed with guns when all they had were spears and shields. Wicked governments know that people don't like them, and WILL fight them. Denying them the right to guns insured leaders of their brutal and iron grip, and the people with no choice but to accept it.
So it was that most nations cracked down on gun ownership, until the birth of the promised land: America. It was exactly because the Founding Fathers had seen this gun-fueled potential for oppression and tyranny that they mandated the right to keep and bear arms for all citizens. They even went so far as to command that all states should maintain a "well-armed militia," an obvious nod to the fact that not even America was above the evil lust for absolute power that had plagued mankind since he left the garden. Freedom must be constantly defended, and guns are a necessity in that defense. Freedoms only remain secure when an armed watchdog sees to it. Our FFs knew how easy it would be for a centralized government to become too large and crooked, and that millions of armed citizens were the best way to keep them in line. This particular amendment was their way of guarding against a future fraudulent government being able to survive versus the will of the people. If both sides have the same weapons, leadership tends to listen a bit more closely, and obey the desires of the true government: the people. Take away those guns, and why should they give a damn? Choose to do it, forced to do it--it's all good to a corrupt leader.
I have oft heard the argument by feminists and the Hippy Press--MSM--that if an oppressed people want to get rid of their government badly enough they will find a way, as if this justifies them downplaying or outright ignoring that which they are "foresworn" to cover. They point to history, where the common man was capable of rising up to uncommon acts of courage. But they choose to ignore what I have pointed out here; these figures were able to do it because the power of the weapons on both sides was equal. They also choose to ignore recent instances, such as Tiananmen Square. Were there any others on earth more determined and desperate to create a free republic than those magnificent young people? They found out what our FFs knew hundreds of years ago: rocks don't work against guns, no matter how passionately they are thrown. The disparity between what the freedom fighters had and the communist regime had was barefaced. They never stood a chance, and more than this generation died--the potential for freedom in the largest communist nation on earth died. They could not defend it with hope--they needed weapons.
For the want of a gun, a nation was lost. We can only wonder now about what might have been had these zealous advocates for a free society been on an even keel with their wretched oppressors.
Now we have the most evil nation on earth--North Korea--that for the first time is showing signs of people who are not buying the communist lie anymore. The brutality of Stalin lives on there, and in spite of their runt of a leader's fervent desire to suppress information about the real world, the peasants are finding out anyway, and they want it. They want their lives back, their freedoms, and their families. They know that in spite of the heavy propaganda that has been force fed to them, the world beyond their borders is far more desirable than the gulags within. They grow weary of forced three generation imprisonment, public executions, slave labor and torture, and a fat, vile little leader who lives in decadent opulence while the people starve. Pictures of "Great Leader" Kim Il Sung and his bastard puppy "Dear Leader" Kim Jong Il are being torn down--a capitol offense in that hole of a nation. These valiant warriors are risking persecution and fatality to sneak out film of the suffering of the people. (Isn't it interesting the way the Hippy Press ignores these horrors but cries over the death of a tree? These were the same who pretended that Pol Pot wasn't a monster to justify what they were lying about--Vietnam.)
Once again we have an Asian nation crying out for help in defeating an undeniable malevolence. They have the passion, the desire, and the manpower... they only need the wherewithal. They are willing to fight for themselves. We need to help them.
So here's what I recommend. To save North Korea we need only do one thing: airlift a butt load of guns over there and drop them on the farms and countryside. Just saturate that desolate nation with weapons and ammunition so they can do what needs to be done: overthrow Kim Jong Il. Some may fall into the wrong hands, sure, but if we drop enough, most will go to the freedom fighters. We should have done it with China. We should have done it with Vietnam. We should have done it with the USSR. There were people who would have fought--such as the Montagnards--and we failed them. North Korea is not asking for American sons to purchase their freedom--they're ready, willing, and able to do it for themselves. Just like the Chinese youth, they want to fight for their land.
The Hippy Press would have you believe that communism ain't so bad. That is because they are the commies' biggest tool. They will never ever ever tell us the truth about North Korea, because deep down they support that fiendish nation. They want Kim to succeed, for communism to spread like the disease it is to our own nation. And the only real obstacle in the path of their repugnant dream isn't the will of the people, but the ability of said people to enforce their will. It is the gun that stands in their way, and the people who will NEVER surrender them, and we should be on our knees thanking God for that.
I hope the people of North Korea destroy their putrid government. I hope they kill Kim Jong Il. I hope they take back their nation and elevate it to where it belongs. And I hope we have the balls to help them do so. Just for fun, I'm going to set up a spot on my site for people to donate money to arm the people of North Korea. I want to see how many of us still believe in the revolutionary principles that first shook this world more than two centuries ago. If it is significant enough, I will get in touch with some of my friends in Japan and Korea to see what can be done, because to I want them to win. I want to see it work for them as well as it worked for us once upon a time. I want that sense of hope back that our Forefathers first gave us, and that the hippy-controlled Politically Castrated losers taking over America would give anything to forget. We aren't going to get the truth from the MSM, but it's OK--in spite of their best efforts, we know it anyway.
I want to free North Korea. The lucky part of that desire is that now, they want it too. If they lose, it should NEVER be because they don't have the weapons. God speed their souls and quicken their trigger fingers. With the right help, they can indeed win this thing.
Keep the faith, bros, and in all things courage.
