The Historical Setting for FreedomFriends.com

When Peter Corrao and Rob Argento joined heads in late summer of 2009 they saw an opportunity to create the world's first patriot commons in cyberspace. The result, after much contemplation and legal homework, was FreedomFriends.com, bringing together under one roof social networking and freedom concerns on one website.

Pete and Rob came to the same conclusion as other noted free thinkers like Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, and former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Paul Craig Roberts that "the machine" up in Washington, DC -- both "left" and "right" wings of it -- had degenerated into a two-headed self-serving monster that was no longer capable of yielding to the will of the people. Endless military occupations, uncontrolled borders, sold-off port operations, extra-constitutional commerce and political relationships with other nations, "free-trade" agreements, government intrusions on American citizens, federal health-care plans, banker bailouts, credits for offshoring of entire US industries, chronic underemployment, so-called "man-caused global climate change" and more signaled a slowly dissolving republic threatened with the loss of national and personal sovereignty. Ever expanding globalization and an emerging "new world order" were increasingly being seen as an enemy of all national constitutional republics. The solution soon became obvious: Americans and freedom lovers everywhere needed to come together across political divisions and unite for national and personal sovereignty. United we stand, divided we fall.

The following short movie briefly illustrates the historical setting for the formation of FreedomFriends.com. We are proud to introduce FreedomFriends.com as the place in cyberspace to make friends, join groups, create events and stay free!
