![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | a rare comment from me .... I almost always try to avoid posting here due to my habit of avoiding raising my blood pressure....... situational awareness, ya know....... However, this is gonna be mild, by some comparisons. I'm over 60 yrs old, and most of my life is behind me. It really scares me when the vast majority of folks take a satirical look at politics and fail to realize that the country most of us old guys served, and grew up with, could disappear in the not too distant future. I posted a little blurb about attitudes recently, got repped for it (thanks), but think about the substance. We need to start preaching the Constitution along with it's components..... (the 2nd Amendment), to every politician we can corner. They don't like hearing it, because they haven't read it. How many want their grandkids to be forced to learn Chinese, because this country has been purchased by China? The Chinese own a substantial part of us as it is. Yes, as gun owners, our primary focus seems to be the 2nd Amendment, but we, along with every other person who values freedom, best get off our collective asses, and collar our run-away politicians. My request is that we stop focusing on Democrats, Republicans, or Independents, or Hari Krishna's, or any other mantra, and start shoveling the constitution down the throats of anyone who we can corner. I don't like Jay Leno much, but he had a bunch of clips on the other day, along the lines of ....... college student was asked who the "founding fathers" were...... the student answered...... " one of the older mens clubs?" That clip got lots of laughs, but not from me. One of these days, that clip may come true. I'm after my representatives weekly, by phone, email, and letters. Folks best get with it, or we may lose what we've learned to take for granted. It's kinda like guns, if you don't take care of 'em..... before long, they aren't gonna work any more. Happy Indepenence day to all....... I sincerely hope we have some more ..... SEMPER FI
