Thread: Does This Sound Familiar?

I heard this term on the Roger Hedgecock show and did alittle research. Actually their are 5 Estates, this one just jumped out at me...

Second Estate
The Second Estate (Fr. deuxieme état) was the French nobility and (technically, though not in common use) royalty, other than the monarch himself, who stood outside of the system of estates.

The Second Estate is traditionally divided into "noblesse de robe" ("nobility of the robe"), the magisterial class that administered royal justice and civil government, and "noblesse d'épée" ("nobility of the sword").

The Second Estate constituted approximately 0.5% of France's population. Under the ancien régime, the Second Estate were exempt from the corvée royale (forced labor on the roads) and from most other forms of taxation such as the gabelle (salt tax) and most important, the taille (the oldest form of direct taxation).

The French nobility was not a closed class, and many means were available to rich land owners or state office holders for gaining nobility for themselves or their descendants.

Noblemen shared honorary privileges such as the right to display their unique coat of arms and the prestige right to wear a sword. This helped to reinforce the idea of their natural superiority. They could also collect taxes from the third estate called feudal dues, this was to be for the third estate's protection.

So, what do YOU think? Sound Familiar?

You're right, the Second Estate was obligated to protect the Third Estate from common enemies, too. Fat chance.

The elites want to do away with the American Republic, the ideals of Western Civilization and make the whole world a kind of feudal state. Illegal immigration is one of their tools to achieve their goal.

The saddest part in that the majority of those who will be the slave laboring serfs do not see this and exult the elitists. I feel the few will have to stand for the many, and I hope there is enough of us to turn this around.
