“Saint Ambrose once said, ‘If my brother hungers and I do not help him, I am a thief. And if my brother dies of hunger, I am a murderer, too.’ Today we might say, ‘If our nation flounders and we do not help her, we are thieves and if our nation dies of liberty we are murders too!’ Veterans In Defense of Liberty is a serious wake up call to us, who are veterans, to roll up our sleeves and act; to exercise the courage to speak up for the values and ideals upon which our nation was founded; and to summon the wisdom necessary to do what is noble and right to preserve so great a Republic.
