I WILL STAND

I WILL STAND ERECT AS A HUMAN BEING; CLAIM MY BIRTHRIGHT TO LIFE, LIBERTY AND PROSPERITY; TO BUILD A HOME, RAISE A FAMILY AND PROTECT THEM.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY OF A CORPORATE WORLD ORDER, AND TO THE COALITION FOR WHICH IT STANDS: ONE CONTINENT UNDER CORPORATE RULE WITH SERFS TO FEED THEM ALL. FOR POVERTY IS A TOOL OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT SPENDS BILLIONS IN RESOURCES TO INVADE AND KILL PEOPLE OF OTHER LANDS; INTERFERE WITH AND MANIPULATE THE SOVEREIGNTY OF OTHER PEOPLES. FOR CONQUEST IS A TOOL OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT WOULD POISON MY HOMELAND AND MY PEOPLE FOR THE PROFIT OF ITS CORPORATE FEUDAL LORDS; SPEND PENNIES FOR THE RELIEF OF THE POOR AND STRICKEN IN ITS OWN LANDS AND BILLIONS FOR RELIEF OF THE WEALTHY. FOR DESTITUTION AND DESPAIR ARE TOOLS OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT GOVERNS IN SECRET WITH LIES, HALF-TRUTHS OR MISINFORMATION; THAT LEGISLATES WITH DECEPTION AND FAVORITISM; CONTROLS THE EDUCATION OF THE CHILDREN AND SUPPRESSES KNOWLEDGE OF BENEFIT. FOR IGNORANCE IS A TOOL OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT WOULD KIDNAP LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AND HOLD THEM IN SECRET; THAT WOULD ABUSE PEOPLE HELD IN THEIR CHARGE AND PUNISH FOR UNPROVEN CRIMES. FOR TORTURE IS A TOOL OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT SPIES ON THE PEOPLE, MANIPULATES AND EXPLOITS THE PEOPLE THROUGH PROPAGANDA AND FEAR; THAT PITS BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER AND CHILD AGAINST PARENT. FOR TERROR IS A TOOL OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT WOULD USURP THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE, UNDERMINE THE AUTHORITY OF THE CONSTITUTION, VIOLATE ITS OWN TREATIES AND DISSOLVE THE SOVEREIGNTY OF MY HOMELAND. FOR RULE OF LAW IS THE ENEMY OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AGAINST AN ARISTOCRACY THAT WOULD DEFINE DISSENT AS TREASON AND BLIND OBEDIENCE AS PATRIOTISM. FOR DISSENT AND PATRIOTISM ARE THE ENEMY OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AS A CITIZEN OF THE REPUBLIC OF AMERICA, CLAIM THE RIGHTS AND SOVEREIGNTY THAT MY FOREFATHERS WON, AND DO BATTLE WITH ALL ENEMIES WHO WOULD ATTACK MY HOMELAND AND THE PRINCIPLES IT WAS BUILT ON; WELCOMING ALL WHO STAND AT MY SIDE AS BROTHER AND SISTER. FOR SOLIDARITY IS THE ENEMY OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND ON MY LIFE TO DEFEND THE PEOPLE, THE CONSTITUTION AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE SEVERAL AMERICAN STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC. FOR COURAGE, RESOLVE AND SACRIFICE ARE THE ENEMY OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.

I WILL STAND AS AN ENEMY OF THOSE WHO WOULD ENSLAVE.
