Here's a picture of the young me. Never been a hippie in spite of all that hair. I like to look at it now that most of it fell out. My values have not changed. My little piece of America here in KS hasn't really changed much. Not a lot of crime and most people are too busy making ends meet to get too stressed out by some politician. A few meth heads around but seems like there has always been a "bad crowd" of one sort or another. I doubt that ever changes.

If the communists keep pushing, people like me are going to load our guns. When that happens I think America will be gone. Forever? Who knows. Depends on who wins I guess.

Putting food ammo medicine in storage is no different than saving money for a rainy day.

The indigenous peoples didn't even have ponies until Englishmen brought them over from Europe. The bumped their arse across the prairie by dragging a couple of sticks on the ground.

America still exists but without freedom and fair elections it is a hollow shell of itself.

Gary, laugh
Why is it when people(s) are gone, they are so fondly remembered.

It's when they're among us we can't hardly get along.

Blessings,
Mark

The land will remain, the name will likely remain but the American people are disappearing. Being an "American" used to mean something but we've lost that identity as a people. As various factions have increased in size we have lost our core identity. Politicians have said for years "America is a set of ideals" and now instead of being a people we've become nothing but a set of ideals, ideals that are fading because the people that upheld them are fading.

When the fed starts snooping every transaction $600 and over in your bank account, they are looking to extract every penny they can from you. Not the America I used to know.

I keep hearing the bumper sticker rally cry; elections have consequences.

What about a better thesis which is that decisions we make have consequences?

How'd we all get to the scenario in 2021? I'd argue it's from the decisions made from those living from 1940's and 50's until now.
Blame 20 year olds? Not me.
They are the hope when the generation that went liberal in many ways was at the helm.
You see many 20 year olds on the news or at the podiums with teleprompters?
Naw, looks like old foggies to me.
Us.
Well not all of us, but it's our generation trapper friends!
Pure and simple.
We said "live and let live," "anything goes," and a country and way of life was cast from what our grandmas and grandpas gave us.
We've been slipping big time on the slope of liberalism since the mid-1800's..... and here we are.
The youngins are our hope.
Teach them well, but for goodness sake, teach them different than what culture has become.

Bottom line, our generation celebrated the deal made with the devil.... not someone born in 1994.

Blessings,
Mark

People that want to be free are not the problem. The problem is people who believe they are entitled to a living provided by the people who want to be free
