I never thought I'd live to see the day that Mexican drug cartels have more control over our own border than WE do.
I never thought I'd live to see the day that America cracked down on her OWN citizens over a bioweapon unleashed on us by an enemy state, while allowing that enemy state to skate free.
I thought we had learned our lesson with the disgrace that was Jimmy Carter.
I was wrong.
The US has fallen even farther than it did then, and is still diving in a free-fall. I have no idea how low it can go, but it ain't looking good at the moment.
The first sumbitch that comes up to me and tells me I gotta wear a mask in the great outdoors is gonna eat some knuckles. I won't stop until my fist comes out the back of their head.
Just because the US as a nation is taking a nose dive, that doesn't mean we all as citizens have to take that same ride. If enough of us stand for ourselves, the rest will either back the hell off, or drown in a puddle of their own piss.
Citizens standing up for themselves is what made America to begin with.
We can do it again... if we will.
If one reflects on the manner the 2020 US election outcome was arrived at, I wonder if this 'we're-not-very-good-at-this' behaviour
is a ruse and a type of tactic. I'd like to think so, but I'm probably just being hopeful!
Like most DC Democrats, they appear to be great at stealing stuff, but not so damned good when it comes right down to rolling their sleeves up and getting to some honest work....

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
