What is Liberty?

The dictionary defines Liberty as:

a. The condition of being free from restriction or control.

b. The right and power to act, believe, or express oneself in a manner of one's own choosing.

c. The condition of being physically and legally free from confinement, servitude, or forced labor.

While the debate continues regarding the role of government in our daily lives, many people ignore the only role assigned to government by our country's founders: Protecting Liberty. We The People are the highest power in our country, and, as such, we are charged first with the protection of our Liberty.

We must not stand idly by while our Liberty is stripped away!


"Those who would sacrifice Liberty for Safety deserve neither Liberty nor Safety"
-Ben Franklin
