In yesterday's video I mentioned that I had watched the documentary, BIDDER 70, on Thursday evening. This award-winning, feature-length video tells the story about Tim DeChristopher, the environmental activist college student who derailed an illegal Bureau of Land Management oil and gas lease auction in 2008. I'm going to comment on some of the things I saw in the film. First, here's a quote by Tim DeChristopher: "At this point of unimaginable threats on the horizon, this is what hope looks like. In these times of a morally bankrupt government that has sold out its principles, this is what patriotism looks like. With countless lives on the line, this is what love looks like, and it will only grow..." The government is not only morally bankrupt, it is unlawful because it violates natural law and common law rights of the people every day. The very system itself is a criminal enterprise! This is what truth looks like. [www.bidder70film.com]
