"Posterity, you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that ever I took half the pains to preserve it." -John Adams


Welcome to Patriot's Lament. We strive here to educate ourselves on Liberty. We will not worry ourselves so much with the daily antics of American politics, and drown ourselves in the murky waters of the political right or left.
Instead, we will look to the Intellectuals and Champions of Liberty, and draw on their wisdom of what it is to be a truly free people. We will learn from where our Providential Liberties are derived, and put the proper perspective of a Free Individual and the State.
Please join us!

Internment camps? Not here, really?

Justice Anthony Scalia said some pretty interesting things this past week, something we have been ridiculed here at Patriot's Lament for even suggesting, when we helped to expose the detention articles in the NDAA 2 years ago.
Well, seems that we weren't wrong so much, unfortunately.
When a supreme court justice is willing to say it in public, a person ought to take notice, especially when he says the things that he did.

A Letter Concerning Toleration

John Locke
Bumping back to the top.
This letter is a concise and correct thought on the way we should view other people's religious thoughts, and whether or not we should use government force to make people believe and act the way we want.
This letter was written during the time that the Puritans were ruling Massachusetts Bay colony.
We have here in America reverted back, in a sense, to the ways of the Puritan Oligarchy, and this letter correctly refutes that.
