Episode #100, "Gun Control, and What Will They Do Next?'They,' Being The Government."This isn't so much a political discussion, as it is a statement of "fact checked" historical records of gun control laws, as well as statements by current and recent politicians and candidates in reference to their positions on gun control.One goal of the far left has, for years, been to eliminate private ownership of firearms. History shows this to be a very bad idea. The Jewish Holocaust is a good example.Eliminating private firearm ownership is NOT about safety, crimes, or even death. Gun control is not about controlling firearms, it is about controlling people!In some states law abiding citizens must apply for and obtain a "FOID" card, or Firearms Owners Identification Card in order to even own a firearm.In other words, we will "have to have permission of the government to exercise our God-given right as guaranteed by the US Constitution." What if we had to have their permission before we can exercise our rights under the 1st, 4th, or 5th amendmentsIn this episode we look at a number of statements they have made, many of which reveal their long term goals, what they want to enact in the near future, and why.Things We Can DoJoin the NRA at NRA.orgStay informedVote in every election Get involvedRun for political office, or encourage good, 2nd amendment supporters to run.Write To Your Congressional Representatives and Senators. Urge them to vote against any and all gun control proposals.Email themCall themOur rights guaranteed by our constitution are under assault.The second amendment is under assault!Legal firearm owners are under attack.The government says we don't need firearms.Ask the Native Americans how that worked.Ask the Jews how that worked in the 40s.An unarmed populous becomes a controlled populous.If they are ever successful, we will all lose most of our freedoms and become subjects of the government.If the second amendment falls, what is to keep the first amendment, or the fourth amendment, or the fifth amendment, or the fourteenth amendment from being taken away?I can see it now, our houses being searched just because the government wants to search.I can see Americans being beaten or tortured into making confessions.I can see Americans being held as political prisoners, or jailed because of our religious beliefs, our political beliefs, or we don't conform to the narrative or mandates.How do you want to live, with liberty, or as a subject of the government?Patrick Henry, in his greatest speech said, "Give me liberty, or give me death."What will it be?

The world continues to make no sense, and this weekend was no different. Chad took to social media over the weekend and read Patrick Henry's March 23, 1775, speech, and people TODAY thought he was reading a President Trump speech. Has America forgotten Patrick Henry's famous words: “Give me liberty, or give me death!” Former President Bush compared 9/11 terrorists to “violent extremists at home.” What does that even mean, Georgie? During President Joe Biden's visit to the 9/11 Memorial at the World Trade Center, he was booed. President Biden mocked the resurgence of al Qaeda. Is he even paying attention to Afghanistan? Alana McLaughlin, transgender MMA fighter, DESTROYS a female opponent. On Friday night, Alana debuted and won via submission by using a rear-naked choke against Celine Provost to end the match 3 minutes and 32 seconds into the second round.

You can learn a lot about history from the public speeches that shaped this great nation. Whether it is Dr. King encouraging the civil rights movement or President Kennedy inspiring the nation to reach to the moon, public speaking is an important part of the American experience. We will go in-depth from the fiery speech that started the revolution to President Reagan standing at the Berlin Wall taunting the Soviet Union. These speeches span from the birth of a new nation, through a civil war, a great depression, and into an era of a “new birth of freedom.”In this episode, I cover the Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death” speech by Patrick Henry (March 23, 1775).In March of 1775, the citizens of the 13 Colonies were divided. They were British citizens and many were patriotic to the Crown. However, in the five years prior to this famous speech by Patrick Henry, the colonies were in turmoil.The British military spent vast amounts of gold defending the Colonies from other nations, pirates, and Indians. Since the French and Indian war ended in 1763, the British army had set up forts to protect the colonies from incursions from the frontier. King George decided that the Colonists should be responsible for funding these military campaigns. So, he instituted a series of ever-increasing taxes on the Colonists.Angry townspeople debated in pubs throughout the 13 Colonies. However, the biggest thorn in the side of King George was Massachusetts. The Boston Massacre (1770) and the BostonTea Party (1773.) were a couple of the more famous incidents. A few months before Henry's famous speech, the First Continental Congress sent a letter of grievances to the King. They were still awaiting a reply.Then, a few weeks before the speech, the British military marched on Concord to confiscate a cache of weapons from suspected rebels. For the first time, the British military had marched on British citizens in the Colonies. The Second Continental Congress was meeting in Philadelphia. The delegates were debating whether or not to join the revolution.Meanwhile, in Richmond, Virginia, local delegates also debated about which side Virginia would back. Would they support the war effort in Massachusetts or would they support the Crown?Patrick Henry Delivers “Give Me Liberty or Give Death” Speech to Virginia Convention.Delegates at the Virginia Convention debated both the pros and the cons of the revolution. Some favored British rule. Others favored independence. That is until local attorney Patrick Henry stood to deliver one of the great American speeches of all time. In the assembly were future presidents George Washington and John Adams.The first written documentation of the full speech took place 41 years later by William Wirt. Wirt created the text based on memories of men who were in the assembly. So it is had to say how accurate the text that we have today actually is. What is a fact though is that after this famous speech, the Virginia delegation because staunch supporters of the American Revolution.Along with the “shot heard 'round the world” just a few weeks prior, the famous line from this speech became known as the start of the revolution.For full show notes, visit The Greatest Speeches in American History https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/the-greatest-speeches-in-american-history-from-revolution-to-leaders-of-the-free-world/

Give me liberty or give me death. This is a famous quote from Patrick Henry in 1775, right before our nation declared its independence from England in 1776. As we recognize the freedoms and comforts, we have been afforded in our nation, and remember with gratitude on this Fourth of July the many people that sacrificed to make improving our nation year after year a reality I must tell you that as Christians, Patrick Henry's statement is not our cry. As is the case with the Kingdom of God this is not an either-or statement but a both-and statement.

Patrick Henry. Special 4th of July edition   Special 4th of July edition - The inspiring passion of Patrick Henry, the voice of the American Revolution. 'Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death!'  Brent and Kolleen DeGraff relate original source stories from history. They are the authors of eight American, World and government history texts.  A Threads of Liberty Podcast.

Today, for the Fourth of July, I demonstrate how Patrick Henry's “give me liberty or give me death” speech actually speaks to us now more than it did in 1775. We must open our eyes and understand that we will not gain our freedom from the corrupt globalist elites without taking action. Enough of the same failed tactics! I explain why we are actually better off than our Founders because we don't need a military struggle to regain independence. We already have somewhat independent states that could reflect our values if we actually worked to make red states free again, which is an achievable goal. Later, we'll revisit our 2020 Independence Day show, which is chock-full of history and should motivate us to fight for independence anew a year later.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Staff with Rhodeside & Harwell will now comb through the responses and will present that information to the Charlottesville Planning Commission on June 29. On Wednesday, the Housing Advisory Committee will discuss at noon changes being suggested by the executive directors of Habitat for Humanity and the Piedmont Housing Alliance. (meeting info)“They shared their early general concept/proposal with us,” said project manager Jennifer Koch. “However, the Cville Plans Together team is currently focused on summarizing the feedback we have received over the last six weeks and we are not yet proposing any [Future Land Use Map] revisions.” More on the future land use use plan in a future installment of the newsletter. *While there are no contested races for Albemarle’s legislative body, that’s not the case in surrounding counties. In Louisa County, two of the magisterial districts have contested races and another two have candidates who are running opposed. In the Green Springs district, incumbent Robert Babyok Jr. faces challenger Rachel Jones. In the Patrick Henry district, incumbent Fitzgerald Barnes faces William Woody Jr. Duane Adams is unopposed in the Mineral District and Tommy J. Barlow is unopposed in the Mountain Road District. In Greene County, Bill Martin will not seek another term representing the Stanardsville District. Abbey Heflin and Tina Deane are running to replace him. Marie Durrer is unopposed in the Midway District. Let’s move on to Nelson County.

What are some of the factors that support, or inhibit, efforts to increase equity in our communities and housing developments? That’s the topic of an upcoming panel discussion held by the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnership. Guests include Kathryn Howell of the RVA Eviction Lab, Hamilton Lombard of the Weldon Cooper Center, Andrew Mondschein at the UVA School of Architecture, and Stacy Pethia, Albemarle’s housing manager. The event begins at 12 p.m. on June 17, 2021. Register today! Today’s newsletter ends with a recap of the June 3 meeting of the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission. The group will try again to get a federal grant for a planning study for the future of the Amtrak station on West Main Street. The agency applied last year when the grant program was known as a BUILD. Now it’s known as RAISE, for Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity. Jessica Hersh-Ballering is a transportation planner for the TJPDC. “We applied for BUILD the last time it was available,” Hersh-Ballering said. “We requested $711,000 to create a Charlottesville regional multimodal transportation station master plan to meet the capacity, accessibility, and safety demands of Charlottesville’s union station.”The application was not successful, but there’s still a need to expand the station in order to prepare for a future with more passenger service through the region. A second daily train between Roanoke and points north is expected in the near future. “The station doesn’t have the infrastructure of the amenities to adequately serve the existing ridership, let alone the increased ridership projected for 2045,” Hersh-Ballering said. It’s not just trains, though. The Virginia Breeze bus service between Danville and D.C. is expanding, and MegaBus also expects more service. Both currently stop at Arlington Boulevard at Barracks Road Shopping Center. Hersh-Ballering said the goal is to come up with a shared community vision for the station site, which is privately owned. The station is currently not compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. “The station [is] missing a lot of important things, such as lighting, canopies to protect people from the weather, appropriate and useful signage, among other things,” Hersh-Ballering said. “There was also a lot of pooling of water on the platforms.”The money being sought now is for planning, and other funds will have to be found to pay for the upgrades. Charlottesville’s Union Station in 2009. What have your experiences been here?Hersh-Ballering made her comments at the June 3 edition of the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission. The TJPDC agreed to a resolution to move forward with the grant application. Charlottesville’s representatives on the Commission were not present at the meeting. At that meeting, new officers were elected. Nelson County Supervisor Jesse Rutherford is the new chair. Greene County Supervisor Dale Herring is the new vice chair and Keith Smith of Fluvanna County is the treasurer. Nelson County will use the services of the TJPDC to apply for a pair of several transportation grants. Interim executive director Christine Jacobs explains. “One of them is for sidewalk infrastructure in downtown Lovingston and the other is for a potential application for the Gladstone Train Depot relocation of the old building,” Jacobs said. Work also continues to implement a regional tax on cigarettes.“At this time, we’ve had seven counties in our broader region endorsing resolutions and expressing interest in participating in the regional cigarette tax administration,” Jacobs said. After a closed session, the Commissioner opted to extend Jacobs service as interim executive director until the end of the calendar year. A search for a permanent executive director to replace Chip Boyles will begin on July 1. At a roundtable on happenings in each jurisdiction, Dylan Bishop of Nelson County had more information about the Gladstone project. “The Friends of Gladstone Depot is a non-profit agency that purchased this property from the railway, from CSX,” Bishop said. “They’re going to be moving that train station, converting it to a community center and transportation museum for the community there.” The Nelson County Board of Supervisors approved a rezoning for the project at its meeting last week. On Wednesday, the Fluvanna Board of Supervisors will have a public hearing on rezoning of land adjacent to the Bremo Power Station from agricultural to industrial to allow for a lined landfill to store coal ash. Here’s Supervisor Tony O’Brien.“They will retain their coal ash ponds tapped and sealed and covered in Fluvanna and they are proffering close to $50 million for that so that’s a big bonus for Fluvanna in terms of being able to ensure that the water quality in the Fork Union area remains stable and is not affected by any of their efforts,” O’Brien said.  The proffered funding includes $47.1 million for water supply improvements, $2 million for transportation improvements, and half a million for Green Infrastructure to mitigate the impacts of the landfill. (meeting info)Greene Supervisor Dale Herring provided an update on the ongoing efforts of the county to leave the Rapidan Service Authority in order to build a reservoir that the entity has opted not to build. “Madison and Orange County did vote to allow us to leave the authority so we should be out of the Rapidan Service Authority in the near future and what that means for us is that we can actually begin to build the reservoir that we’ve already spent between $11 million to $13 million on,” The TJPDC will next meet on August 5 and will be in-person. Before you go, if you’d like to help continued research into government in the community, please consider a donation through Patreon.

RICH FRESH BIOPatrick Henry, known professionally as “Fresh”, is the founder and creative director of LA-based luxury fashion label Richfresh. Established in 2018, Richfresh has quickly skyrocketed to being the beloved brand of Hollywood's directors, actors, and athletes. At the age of 21, shortly after dropping out of college, Fresh opened a tailoring shop in the burgeoning art district of downtown Memphis, TN. Struggling to realize his potential in Memphis, he moved to New York City to further pursue tailoring. After the market crash, Fresh left New York and moved to Los Angeles in 2013 to work for Ermenegildo Zegna. During his time at Zegna, he became the preferred associate for many high-profile clients due to his unique aesthetic and stand-out personality. Fresh then made the move to LA, where hard times then struck. By the end of 2017, Fresh was homeless and living in a shelter. But with sheer grit, determination, and brilliance, Fresh branched into making his own designs and cleverly branded himself as a “celebrity tailor”, without even having any celebrity clients. His work spoke for itself though, and A-listers quickly pounced at the chance to have bespoke suits created by Fresh. Fresh left the shelter with $300 in his pocket and without any investments or loans, he turned that $300 into $1 million within a year of leaving the homeless shelter. Having over a decade of luxury tailoring experience and being a keen student of color and color psychology, Fresh conceived his aesthetic and created the brand Richfresh. The concept is unique - bespoke tailoring with a brand aesthetic. With precise tailoring, comfort, and the unique use of color, double stripes, and the famous yellow tab as its hallmarks, Richfresh has become a name celebrated amongst Hollywood and the elite. Fans of the brand now include The Weeknd and his iconic red suit designed by Fresh, John Legend, Billy Porter, Dwayne Wade, Gabrielle Union, Lena Waithe, Blake Griffin, Rick Ross, and more. Website: www.richfresh.comInstagram: @Richfresh  HENRY MASK BIOPivoting to meet the new demands and constraints of the world during COVID-19, Richfresh founder Patrick Henry (AKA Fresh) and business partner Chase Morgan founded Henry Mask in April 2020. As COVID-19 gripped America and global medical supplies and face masks ran low, there was no way of obtaining more of what was desperately needed. There were simply not enough manufacturers in the US to meet the demand. Fresh and Chase put their heads together and sought ways they could step up and put their manufacturing resources to use. And thus, Henry Mask was born. The masks' unique origami-inspired design, the high level of protection, and their philanthropic message (for every mask purchased, one is donated to medical workers on the front lines and families in need) put Henry Mask on the map. With no investors and done out of total self-funding, Henry Mask made an extremely impressive $1 million in just 5 months. The colorful masks and their special message have quickly become a hit with celebrity fans including LeBron James, Jennifer Lopez, Michael B. Jordan, Doja Cat, Tracee Ellis Ross, Chrissy Teigen and more. With a monthly subscription model ($39.99 per month), The HENRY Travel-Mask comes in packs of 4 so that you always have a clean mask handy. Masks are washable and reusable but should be replaced weekly with regular use. HENRY Travel-Masks are made of 3-ply 100% Polypropylene nonwoven fabric with round elastic ear-loops to give you the best protection and comfort when worn. Website: www.henrymask.comInstagram: @HenryMasks Connect with Rich: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/richfresh/?hl=enFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/richfreshla/Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

The study today continues with the history of the struggles for religious freedom in the United States of America as took place in Virginia. It gives more insights regarding the times of John Leland and the pivotal role of Patrick Henry in ratification of the Constitution.

I first read about Vera Sharav, founder of the Alliance for Human Research Protection (www.ahrp.org), when Lost Arts Radio had just started, and was inspired by her courage as a small child when the Nazis took her and her parents to the death camps. Her determined spirit of courage has seen her through that experience, and is obviously still with her now, as she works to warn us all that, darkness has gathered its forces and is attacking again. The assault this time is more openly world-wide, hiding under the thin façade of the trusted medical establishment. Getting us ready to respond as cowards and idiots to this manufactured threat has taken time and unimaginable global coordination. We had to be taught false beliefs about health and disease, and had to be kept in ignorance of our inalienable rights, aka the natural rights, that belong to all people everywhere, not just in American where those rights are specifically mentioned in our founding documents. Inalienable rights can never be suspended in any "emergency," whether fake like the current fake "pandemic," or real, like one of our rulers' more hard-core bioweapons. Patrick Henry, in his famous speech in 1775, did not say, "Give me liberty as soon as you decide all emergencies are over." It was liberty or death, no middle ground. Vera's warning to the people of our world today needs to be heard and responded to by all of us. There is a reason that real health information needed to be suppressed, along with any memory we may have had of individual freedom, to get us to this point. Patrick Henry said 'liberty or death.' Today our choice is to wake up to our real situation and our own inner strength to turn it around, or give up our lives to enslavement, and the death that follows. Vera Sharav is here with inspiration to help us make the choice.

History has proven that with all the deaths and wars in the South, Virginia's hotels, which some were used as hospitals, have a tendency to welcome some spirits. These two spaces are known for being pretty haunted and you can see why. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lattes-and-legends/support

Despite the fact that public speaking remains an important and relevant skill in our modern age -- you never know when you'll need to give a toast at a wedding, pitch an idea at work, or champion a proposal at a city council meeting -- most of us get very little instruction these days in how to do it effectively. Fortunately, my guest says, we can look to the great orators of the past to get the public speaking education we never received. His name is John Hale, and he's professor of archeology as well the lecturer of The Great Courses course Art of Public Speaking: Lessons from the Greatest Speeches in History. Today on the show, John shares what we can learn about the physicality of public speaking from Demontheses of Athens, the importance of empathetic body language from Patrick Henry, the effective use of humor from Will Rogers, the power of three from the apostle Paul, and the potency of brevity and well-executed organization from Abraham Lincoln.  Get the show notes at aom.is/publicspeak.

Join Lorcan Collins as he discusses the life of Patrick Pearse, the poet, teacher, language enthusiast, revolutionary and signatory of the 1916 Proclamation who was executed for his role in the Easter Rising. Guest appearance by the biographer of Willy Pearse and Irish language expert Dr Roisín Ní Ghairbhí.

He was born Malcolm Little in Omaha, Nebraska- and he became one of the most celebrated, influential and misunderstood leaders of the Civil Rights movement of the 1960sMalcolm X was a Muslim Minister and human rights activist - best known as a pioneer of the Black Nationalist Movement and as an apostle for self-respect and uncompromising resistance to white oppression.By the time he was assassinated 56 years ago this week - Malcolm X had become one of the greatest and most influential African Americans in history.He is credited with raising the self-esteem of Black Americans and reconnecting them with their African heritage. He is largely responsible for the spread of Islam in the Black community in the United States.Many African Americans, especially those who lived in cities in the Northern and Western United States, felt that Malcolm X better articulated their struggle against racism and inequality than the mainstream civil rights movement did.He argued that if the U.S. government was unwilling or unable to protect Black people, Black people should protect themselves.Although he had publicly criticized the mainstream civil rights movement for its emphasis on nonviolence and racial integration - after he left the Nation of Islam in March of 1964, Malcolm X declared his willingness to cooperate with that Movement.Of those civil rights leaders he said: “I've forgotten everything bad that [they] have said about me, and I pray they can also forget the many bad things I've said about them."Originally delivered in Cleveland, on April 3rd 1964 - this recorded version was delivered in April 12th in Detroit.Today, historians regard “The Ballot or the Bullet” as one of the most influential speech in American history. Far from a call to violence – Malcolm X sought educate his community as to the extent of their political power:The whites are so evenly divided that every time they vote, the race is so close they have to go back and count the votes all over again. Which means that any block, any minority that has a block of votes that stick together is in a strategic position. Either way you go, that's who gets it. You're in a position to determine who'll go to the White House and who'll stay in the doghouse. While distancing himself from the Nation of Islam - Malcolm X described his continued commitment to Black Nationalism, which he defined as the philosophy that African Americans should control the political, economic and social destinies of their own communities.Like many of the great speeches we feature - Malcolm X tied his and his people’s struggle to American’s Founding and embraced the spirit of the American Revolution:The white man made the mistake of letting me read his history books. He made the mistake of teaching me that Patrick Henry was a patriot, and George Washington – there wasn't nothing non-violent about ol' Pat, or George Washington. "Liberty or death"- is what brought about the freedom of whites in this country from the English.This is why I say it's the ballot or the bullet. It's liberty or it's death. It's freedom for everybody or freedom for nobody.Here is Malcolm X’s historic speech - "The Ballot or the Bullet" - in its entirety. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/words-matter.
