I'm done.
This nation, the nation I served is not worth my breath anymore. Whether what he says is true or not, this life was needless spent.
Not what I served to protect. I wish I never served.

Just don't start shooting at some Fort Sumter, y'all. Of course, Marxists are known to attack dissidents--there's always that.
realized long ago that their future is with the youth - not the adults. I will do what I can to educate my kids and grand kids but the odds are overwhelming. Who will be John Galt?.

Dear Senator Peters
I have enclosed my assessment of the recent election and its implications for our society. Now that the Democratic Party has control of all three branches of government I fear for our country. I am seventy five years old so the intended and unintended consequences will happen after I am long gone. However, my kids and grand kids will have to deal with these consequences. Sadly, legislators are only held accountable at the ballot box. As Tyler stated, “the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy.” At least we lasted 250 years .This will be your legacy unless you step up to the plate. But then, Congress takes care of it’s own so you will be unaffected.
As I see it we are in “Hunger Games meets Brave New World and Animal Farm in 1984 where Atlas Shrugged is no longer fiction.”
I realize this letter will fall on deaf ears but at least you cannot say you were never warned.
Sincerely,
Ben H. Colmery III

Our choice.
Unless AJAshinoff is a lot older than I'd guess, I must respectfully disagree. The relevant sacrifices were made by those who fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and (arguably) World War 2. America's other wars were fought to defend the rights of foreigners, violate the rights of foreigners, or violate the rights of Americans. (Reasonable people can disagree as to which of these applies to which wars.)
The readiness of the military to fight in defense of our liberties ensures that they don't have to actually do so, and for this they deserve our respect and thanks.
Glad I'm 73. I shall live out what time I have left ignoring if not passively resisting those traitors who would be our Marxist masters as best as I can.
BTW, Pence, McConnell and the rest of those crooked RINO cowards who betrayed us can all go to hell.
Yes, I know what I just wrote may seem cold, but I saw the video, too. She died for nothing and nothing will come of it except where the MSMM can spin it into their narrative.
During this whole BLM movement of the past year or so I was reminded to give my son the lecture. "If you're ever stopped by the police you need to be very polite. 'Yes sir, yes maam...what can I do to help you?' They can take you out in a heartbeat just because they're having a bad day. The goal is to get away from them quickly and peacefully and make it home." This is what all those claiming special victim status were saying they were having to tell their kids. My son looks like Barron Trump. Doesn't matter. This isn't about color...all this crap we were seeing protested this past year. It's about force and abuse. It transcends color. But a vast majority of Americans don't seem to have two damned brain cells to rub together.
I expect no progress anymore in America. Just moronic violence. I was discussing this with a friend the other day. This past week I was watching that movie "First Man", about Neil Armstrong. If you haven't seen it...see it. It reminded me of how far we've come in America with technology in my lifetime because my very earliest memory is probably my dad saying "Listen to this on our radio. This man is going to step on the moon, son." Now we've all got computers for phones, the internet, etc. But are our lives better? Is our existence any safer? Are we enlightened as a people? Of course not. Why is that? Because we never bothered to learn how to think. Trust me...that's no accident. We really are just livestock.
Sorry for the long rant. 2020 was a f'ing disaster. I had worked hard my entire career to help mankind and make enough dough to be comfortable. I generated solutions that nobody wanted at first because of various stupid excuses. Then the pandemic crisis got as bad as I predicted and now everybody wants a piece of my time because everything has turned to shit. Zero foresight from people who needed to have it. Now I put in 12 hour days all the time but I'm getting too old and tired to continue to do that. Don't expect anything to improve in America...I'm glad I'm heading to the Gulch.
What is the point of knowing who the enemy is when no one in a position to do anything cares to act?
I was never pro-Trump. But I could appreciate and respect some of what he was doing, and he was getting results. It's like choosing to eat from the cat box when steak is on the table...yup, that's the America we live in.
