Hang it up everyone, this guy declares us FREE!

Most of the restrictions and suppression of the human race put in place by government were not even passed lawfully or are even orders with lawful authority. Even if so, we still resist on the grounds that it violates the Law of Liberty.

If we do not resist, we will lose our economy, our jobs, our traditions, human interaction, our livelihoods, our prosperity and businesses and the things which make our cities and nation great.

I proclaim that you can re-open your businesses, your churches, your schools and at full capacity and functionality if you choose to do so. That you can go back to work, travel where you want when you want, see your friends and family, keep your traditions and celebrate your holidays. Have weddings and gatherings. Celebrate and cherish life. Ignore "health clearance" permission licenses to take part in society. Refuse mandatory testing and vaccines if you choose to do so. If you do not want to conceal your face then don't. I am calling for mass civil disobedience to evil, and mass civil obedience to liberty and what is good. And if a non-health related job, business or industry mandates masks, then all of us who are against the mask mandates and choose to not wear masks shall boycott that business or industry at any cost, nor work for it for so long as we are unwelcome there. And we shall be patrons and employees elsewhere. Even if there is no alternative business or job available, we do not compromise on this principle. If an industry or business collapses as a result of mandating masks then that is a result of the choice they made. We will create a parallel economy and society based on principles of freedom if we have to. If anyone or any government tries to threaten or harass you as a person or business as a result of non-compliance, then still continue to take part in mass civil disobedience, and do not cave in. And I also declare that any legal action, or fines which might come against you as a result are also null and void. If your business has its license suspended as a result of resisting evil, then continue to operate and do not pay any fines. Our numbers are many, and when united we cannot be stopped.

This is not a debate, this is a statement. You are free, all people are. Spread this message to everyone everywhere who needs to hear it. Proclaim liberty to all people in all regions.

I am here to deliver a message, to make a declaration.

I proclaim that you are free.

That all people can partake in commerce, travel freely, go outside, run a business, work a job if they so choose. That curfews are no more. That schools may re-open. That churches and places of worship can be open, that people can freely assemble and speak their mind. That people can keep their traditions, see family, and celebrate holidays. That people can have weddings. That children can play with each other again. That people can smile at each other, once again have effective in person communication with each other, interact, have freedom of expression, that face coverings are not mandatory.

I can no longer remain silent. I have decided to speak what is on my mind pertaining to current matters. I see the world around me, businesses, and the economy falling apart as a result of peoples submission to the new order which is taking hold through ruling by fear. I care about businesses, and people. I want people to be able to have freedom and to be able to make choices for themselves, for people to be able to have jobs to be self-sufficient and to survive, for business owners who risked alot to build up their businesses to be able to keep their businesses and not let what they worked hard for be taken away.

I'm acting not in a spirit of miscreancy, but rather in a spirit of obedience to what is good, and to my duty to speak out against evil and darkness. For while the action of doing evil is bad, so too is the inaction of defending what is good. By not standing for truth and righteous liberty via inaction, you are supporting lies and oppression. For all evil needs to gain victory, is for good people to do nothing. With the exception of few, far too many people do not take a stand. I refuse to find myself in league with them. If we do not stand we fall. And I invite you to stand with me, to stand for truth and liberty. And fear not the consequences of standing up for what is right, so much as you should rather fear the consequences of not doing so. For the consequences of defeat are worse than any consequences of ensuring victory. In the choice of fight or flight, to flee is not an option. Retreat is not an option, or else eventually there will be no more places left to retreat to. Thus we defend in the here and now of any place and time whenever what is good is attacked, whenever life or liberty is threatened. For it is our duty and responsibility, and also the cost of obtaining and maintaining freedom. Freedom is not free, everything has a cost, if you do not pay the cost you lose it. Do realize the more freedoms you lose, the easier it is to lose more. And the more you've lost the more expensive the price is to regain it, the harder it is to regain it. Do not compromise on the loss of liberty even if it is in small phases. Stand firm against those who would take it from you. You may rather just ignore any issues in the world, and decide to live out your life in peace. Those who think in this way do not realize that without freedom, you will not be at peace, as you will then be oppressed. The truth is that if you wish to enjoy your life and cherish the good things that the world and what life has to offer, you must hold firm to it and guard it. Temporary convenience of not standing up for what is good will cost greatly to you later on. If you decide to live in ignorant bliss, evil will still war on against what is good regardless if you accept that fact or not. And to those enforcing unjust laws and decrees, whether cops or business owners, they are as guilty as the the ones passing the unjust decrees in supporting it. For no decree has power if it is not enforced nor followed. If everyone does their part in rebellion to oppression, then victory is certain to be granted.
