The Power Of A PictureBy JGillman, Section News
"A picture speaks a thousand words." I am not sure who said it first, but to be sure we have seen that imagery can be used to evoke emotion, tell a story, provide an answer, or even compel some to action. A thousand words of comfort, hope, or wisdom that are sometimes contained in even the most simple graphical representation. Its why logos are created, market tested, trademarked, and sometimes at great expense protected from those who would damage the brand that relies on such imagery to convey its value. The Gadsden flag, showing a coiled up snake ready to strike those who would trespass on our rights, hangs on my wall, over my desk, in a place so conspicuous, that customers who enter my office, leave with no doubts as to who I am. My story is told. The flag is what I AM.. It is what this country's founding was about. It is not about deception and fraud, because it speaks clearly of cause and effect. So please read on, and look at some pictures below.
The flag, designed by an American general and patriot Christopher Gadsden has been the presentation of many who rather than spell out in a thousand words why government should obey the constitution would rather stand and hold it as their message. It was also used by the United States Marine Corps as an early motto flag, and is considered by many to be the FIRST official Marine flag, as it was used (emblazoned in yellow) on the drums carried by Marines who fought along side the newly formed Continental Navy and its ship, "the Alfred" in 1775, as it sought to capture arms shipping in for the British troops.
One writer of the day, penned a letter to the Pennsylvania Journal, (some believe to be Ben Franklin) and explained the rattlesnake as a logo on the drums as a part of his message: "She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her." Indeed, the Rattlesnake on the Gadsden flag carried by patriots of yore has been the ideal symbol for many who in the last year and a half have been giving warning to the government which even now, still places its boots upon their necks. It has been a thousand words of warning to those who would ignore the rights we have, rather than defend them. It has been a thousand words of fellowship to those who seek the assistance of others to lift off that boot which suffocates them. The story it has become is as deep as the story of its first use. And there are some who would use it against all that it stands for. They would use it in an attempt to keep power for those who cannot win elections based on a promise of freedom, or demonstrating their OWN leadership skills, but rather by poisoning the wells of those who oppose them. But the newly formed Michigan political entity "The Tea Party" intends on having the Gadsden symbol as its logo on the November 02, 2010 ballot.
The appearance of the image as seen below is clearly a ploy to divide conservative, and traditional votes in key races around the state. The fact that the slate of candidates includes NO-ONE who is even remotely connected with Tea Party rallies,or conservative causes should raise an eyebrow. Again, we face an unknown operation that promises one thing, but exists for a purpose truly opposite to its published cause.
We know who they are now. if you check out Cap Con NOW... you will find out some interesting things.. That you may have already suspected. Gratuitous picture of Gary Peters added for dramatic effect.. Or is it? Really this is the big deal
This picture is only starting to tell its story.
