Title: The Three Percent Solution
Post by: 2HOW on July 02, 2009, 08:10:25 PM
How many of you are “Three-Percenters?” If you are reading this, you probably should be. OK, what’s a Three-Percenter? The term goes all the way back to the American Revolution. During the war for our independence, only approximately a third of the colonists supported the independence cause. Another third didn’t care one way or the other and the last third wanted to remain under British rule. Out of those that supported independence and revolution, only some three percent were actively engaged on the battlefield with the full active support of only about 10 percent of those who were pro-independence. Twenty percent of the pro-independence faction did nothing to actively support the cause. This is the root of today’s Three Percenter term.

 It makes feel better knowing I'm not the only one saying that since they have ignored us on our soap boxes and stuffed our ballot boxes it is past time to resort to the cartridge box.

My greatest fear is not the enemy that is surrounding us. My greatest fear is that to many people in this country, will simply roll over and play dead.
