Another day, another high school shooting. It’s getting to be a
routine occurrence in America these days. At least this time, no
one was killed, and we all should thank God for that.
But then again, is God trying to tell us something in the first
place? I think so, but the trouble is — while more and more of
us are beginning to understand that the reason so much violence
exists in our society today is because we have no moral compass on the
“official” level — our elected anointed still don’t get it. Which is
why incidents like the one that occurred yesterday in Conyers, Ga., will
continue until we let these cowardly charlatans in Congress take every
blessed freedom we’ve ever had away from us for good.
Yes, I know — impossible, right? Think again. Lawmakers —
already convinced that inanimate guns instead of warped, sick, misguided
individuals with no souls and no concept of morality are responsible for
our rash of school shootings — are set to pass laws that will further
restrict our Second Amendment. The Conyers incident will make that a
certainty now. Clinton will sign those measures because he’s a control
freak and a socialist, and our fabled Congress will send thousands of
federal agents from various agencies out into the Hinterland to “see to
it” that local law enforcement officers uphold these new “laws.”
After the next rash of violence — who knows where or when it will
strike next? — there will be more laws. And more. And more. Pretty
soon this country will begin to resemble all of those dictatorships and
authoritarian regimes most of us grew up learning to mistrust and
oppose. How do we know this is what’s going to happen? Because this is
what always happens selfish lawmakers — control freaks in their own
right — listen more to phony polls, “ghost” constituents and special
interest socialists than the Constitution.
But maybe they can’t help it. Maybe most of them are too dirty to
get clean anymore. Who knows why these people behave the way they do.
Regardless, we can anticipate what is coming.
As our schools became stuffed with regulations, armed guards, metal
detectors, drug-sniffing dogs, impotent administrations, hamstrung
teachers, and kids devoid of righteousness and instead filled with pure
rage and evil, what have we done about it?
Well, let’s see.
Most of us don’t vote. We don’t even pay much attention to the
jokers, geeks, and losers who run for the offices created over 230 years
ago, supposedly to represent us. That’s why many of the jokers,
geeks and losers return to their plush congressional positions year
after year, decade after decade. And maybe that’s why Americans have,
over the course of 50 years, permanently lost many of the constitutional
protections our “representatives” are supposed to defend on our behalf.
We allow ourselves to be spoon-fed our opinions by pundits, media
bosses and talking heads with an agenda, rather than get off our rear
ends and find out about the issues on our own.
We create punchlines and e-mail jokes about this new regulation or
that, but we never stop to think that each new law, each new mandate, is
one less freedom we have.
We get angry at each other over laws passed by legislators who let us
get mad at each other because it keeps us from directing our outrage
against them.
We gladly hand over our identities to bankers, lawyers, and the Feds
but we secure an unlisted phone number for our homes and think that is
“getting even.”
We allow a criminal president to preach to us about love and peace,
then let him use American forces to bomb innocent civilians in a foreign
country where we have no national interests.
Most of us treat each other with respect — regardless of ethnicity,
gender, color or faith — but let people like Jesse Jackson inflame our
psyche by believing their inflammatory rhetoric.
We pay exorbitant taxes for the “right” to drive our cars, live on
our land and in our homes, and buy our food — then let them convince us
these things are bad or we’re greedy if we want to have them.
And we let them talk us into giving them more of our treasure for
their public schools, then tolerate them telling us we can’t have a
choice on where to educate our own kids — even when it’s obvious their
schools and their education system is failing miserably.
As far as I’m concerned, there is no more time to waste on
compromise. We can either continue to let these thieves and liars strip
us of our rights and our treasure, or we can get rid of them. All of
them. Unfortunately we’re certain to get rid of some honest public
servants in the process, but at this stage of the game, that’s just the
way it goes. We need to be sure.
The choice is ours — and there is no gray area. It’s very black and
white.
Americans must take their country back from slick-talking
opportunists in government who are about as interested in serving us as
they are in serving God. They know who they are. And so do we.
