The Greatest Danger

The greatest danger to liberty is not liberals or other anti-Americans who would outright take away your freedoms. The greatest threat to liberty is the ‘moderates’ or others willing to compromise a little here or there.

You see, everyone can recognize an outright threat. And really, so few Americans are that way that they will not have a definite majority.

The problem is the representative that is willing to compromise. It is this compromise that harbors the danger. Like the saying says, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

These compromisers will often vote away a freedom in the following ways:
- A limitation “seems reasonable.”
- For giving-in here, we get a “better benefit” there.
- It is “for the children.”
- It is “for safety.”

America is unlikely to fall to an outside invader. We are much more likely to crumble from within. And it is compromisers that will cause the crumbling.
