A Humbling Response from Mr. Roberts himself from the XJT Crackpipe:
"Holy crap, guys! Been away from the pipe for a while and I just found this thread. Now I'm having a hard time typing 'cause my hands are trembling. Seriously - thank you all. Just saying that doesn't even begin to communicate my internal response right now. I am humbled - like down on my face on the floor humbled.
I can tell you this - I'm not going to stop short of the objectives I've been laying out there since the beginning. I'll spend the rest of my life doing this if it means my daughters and my boys can live free and raise my grandchildren in peace in a just society. And you are all very much a part of the effort, as is every other regular American citizen currently under the assault of the overreaching arm of the state. We're all going to leave something to those who come after us, both individually and as a nation.
When I did what I did on Oct. 15 I pretty much expected it to get about as much attention (basically none) as the letter some of us sent to the company back in August when we told management what we thought of the new policies. I really wasn't trying to change anything back then - I just knew I couldn't conscientiously comply with TSA's BS. But with your encouragement and support you guys have set me up to go to war with these traitors and you've given me an army to do it with - which seems to consist of pretty much the entire American public!
This thing isn't about me and it never really was. Let's never allow it to become centralized, organized, or institutionalized because then it can be controlled and bastardized and before you know it, the state itself will take it over somehow and use it to add another layer to the bureaucratic cake. (Pretty good preaching for a white guy, huh?) All I'm saying is please guard your own sector and protect your people because what it's really going to take is a few million one-man revolutions - not one big movement or political lobby or boycott or whatever. I'm already blown away by the way a lot of you have showed up in the past month. Bravo!
And Steve, thank you, sir. Words rarely fail me, as you all know, but you got me this time. My heart is pounding in my chest as I write, and I'm just going to have to stop now 'cause I don't know how to bundle up my thoughts and feelings and deliver them here. "
