First they lie, exagerate, scare, mis-state, etc. their position to convert as many as possible to their side, so they have the army that will shout and shoot. Careful examination of their side will probably show they are socialists or communists, they want to tell you what to do and say.

    Unfortunately, people claiming to be friends of freedom do their share of shouting and shooting.

    While the point of the quote is well made, enemies of freedom prefer to shout, shoot, promote immorality and chaos, anger and violence, and anti-rights and unlawful behavior; as well as argue. By way of example: socialists (left to right / communists to fascists, etc.) argue the best way to eliminate freedom.

    " That autonomous faith which rest upon Experience and individual inspiration." William Inge.
    Christian theology with elements of Platonic philosophy promoting Individual liberty and freedom.

    Subversion, by all means, is the metier of the loveless adversaries of Liberty.

    As no less a lightless leftist luminary than Mao expressed it:

    " Communism has nothing to do with love.
    Communism is an excellent hammer which we use to destroy our enemy."

    and
