A Commentary by John J. Rigo

The following message was sent early this morning to the head of a well known national Resistance Movement in the United States. In sharing this short e-mail with you the reader, it is my hope and prayer that the young people of this country will be able to take up the banner of freedom that so many have fought and died for over almost two centuries. That time has passed for me, a 71 year old man with an aging body, who clings to the few last years he may have:
“What I am grappling with this morning is knowing by entering this arena I will be giving up the lives of both my wife and I. I fear with a sense of shame and forebearing, I lack the courage to do that. It seems to me that evil has truly won in taking our country of freedoms from every last one of us. I truly fear we are now lost without any hope of saving our country.”
