For those of you who don't want a lot of saliva flung on them, I suggest you pass this little rant of mine.........Okay, fair warning delivered. Here we go.
What in the name of all that is good and holy is going on in the "Free World"?
When politicos can vote them selfs immunity in the guise of state sovernerty, when the courts find new and interesting ways to interpret the laws to benefit the state, and where the people are gullible enough to swallow any damn thing the media decides to spew, we cannot survive as a nation.
My god! Thomas Payne would gouge his eyes out if he saw what has been done to the idea of America!
The sad and undeniable fact of the matter is that WE THE PEOPLE are to blame for this mess. The question is "can we fix it?". I don't think we can, not really.
The government isn't the problem. It's the system. The bureaucracy that makes the this work from day to day. It's the people who have learned that they can vote them selfs anything they want out of the treasury.
How do we fix it? I, for one try to teach my children to be self sufficient, to rely on their brains and muscles to make a better life for them selfs (and to pick a NICE old folks home for me). A huge part of that is passing on the traditions of shooting, hunting and protection of family, home, and country.
Thats all I can think of doing. I vote and am failed by my representatives over and over, yet I keep trying.
How can one person make a difference? He can't. Not in this case, but if every person who can actually feel the idea of America in their bones and the words of the Founding Fathers echo in their heads would look beyond their short sighted political parties and put the idea of America first, then maybe, just maybe, we can avoid the fate of Rome and all the other great civilizations.
Okay. Rant done. Thanks for the time.
