Sam Adams

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom,
go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." Samuel Adams

"That the said Constitution shall never be construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms ... " -- Samuel Adams, Debates and Proceedings in the Convention of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, at 86-87 (Pierce & Hale, eds., Boston, 1850)

Tyner's Revolt "Don't Touch My Junk" Echoes American Revolution's "Don't Tread on Me"


Everyone is familiar with the American Revolutionary era flag of a snake hissing, "Don't Tread on Me!" The four staccato beats, "Don't Tread on Me!" are echoing in the protest "Don't Touch My Junk."

The Nov. 2010 Internet story of a man who refused government-ordered scanning and groping at the San Diego International airport has taken off, as he becomes the spokesperson for an entire nation, and perhaps world, who are fed up with being felt-up and filled-up with an untested radiation experiment.

John Tyner's blog includes his account of the incident, along with images and sounds captured by his mobile phone.

Many in America are thanking John Tyler for standing up for the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and for standing up to government bullies. Scanning with radiation, strip-searching and groping innocent men, women, and children, are all crimes against the American people and people of the world.
