The Kelly File Interviews David Clarke

This guy comes off as a conservative, but what he says in this video is the exact opposite of conservatism or what it ought to be. Below are a few awesome comments from Bojidar Marinov.

The key word is “comply.” He doesn’t give any promise that the police are going to give only lawful orders. In fact, he assumes that cops are also going to give unlawful orders because he says that we should leave grievances for later. We can’t have grievances if the orders are only lawful. Which means he wants us to obey ALL orders, lawful and unlawful, and complain later, but he doesn’t promise that the unlawful orders won’t leave some permanent damage: like an innocent person executed like a dog. What good is to complain later when the damage is done?

Submit only as long as you need to protect your life and the lives of your loved ones. But this submission has nothing to do with allegiance or willful obedience. Just as with any occupation force, you need to do everything you can to make it as expensive as possible for them to make you submit. Just as we did under Communism: Submit only after the government has spent tons of resources and energy and nerves to make you submit, and then submit just a notch before you are killed. This is the Biblical way to treat an occupation force. Solzhenitsyn gives some good ideas in his books.

A someone who has lived under Communism, I have a rule: NEVER TRUST A GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL WHO DEMANDS UNCONDITIONAL OBEDIENCE! No matter how good and righteous and serious and trustworthy he looks like, he is a monster. No honest person demands unconditional obedience to himself; only those who want your life, liberty, and property want unconditional obedience.

So, we need to fight tyranny smart, but one thing is absolutely sure: making it easier for tyrants to rule over you is the stupidest way to fight tyranny. Solzhenitsyn explains it. The smartest way is this: MAKE IT EXPENSIVE FOR THEM. Talk back to them, demand that they show you proofs for the legality of their actions, take your time when submitting to orders, film them always when you can, make every move of theirs public and subject to scrutiny, speak against the very concept of police, show how we don’t need police, point to corruption in the police, and always in your conversations point to the inherent immorality of the police job. Make them be ashamed that they are cops. This is the way to deal with an occupation army. Anything else is submission to tyrants, and therefore disobedience to God.

A standing army is an occupation army. It must be resisted in the best possible, wisest possible, most effective way.

It’s a completely modern misunderstanding. After all, it was the Reformation that laid the foundation for so many revolutions that changed Europe and the world. That theology of unconditional allegiance is actually paganism, a belief in the divinity of the state and its agents. Unconditional allegiance is owed only to God. If you proclaim such allegiance to the state, you have made the state a god.
