Excellent and from an odd source. I thought TownHall was against Trump, yet this is his basic message.
Excellent read. Thx for posting.
For the last 15 or 20 years I've been doing exactly that. I recently retired and the younger people that I worked with couldn't believe the common everyday freedoms that I enjoyed when I was their age that we no longer have.
A sobering, truthful must read. Thank you my FRiend.

Mr. Hawkins is saying exactly what many of us have been saying for 30 years or so, only more eloquently and succinct.
Psalm 33:12-22
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD...
We kill our unborn; praise homesexuality, 'schools' mock GOD publically and abuse His believers...
“We did all that could be done.”
I doubt that neither most Americans, nor most Conservatives, nor most folks on this board would be in favor of doing what was required to return our country to its former freedoms or it’s founding Constitutional principles.
It would require eliminating government checks, benefits, and controls.
Nowadays folks would fight to the death for their social security, medicare, and other government checks. They won’t fight for quaint concepts like “liberty” and “freedom”.
When we finally go over the cliff financially - there will be a final spasm of cronyism where Americans scramble for the right to take what’s left from other Americans who are less politically favored that they have built and earned and is yet to be confiscated by government.
“Conservatives” will be wearing the jackboots, same as the “Progressives”. We want our free stuff from government, no matter what our political affiliations, and are already slitting the throat of the Republic to keep it. Our children will be ashamed of us for it.
I think this issue is the "canary in the mineshaft" for American culture. It is an issue that touches the very heart of what is wrong in America.
Under political correctness we are unable to discuss the issues that lie under the failure of inner city schools: Dysfunctional parenting, lack of discipline, low IQ's, low expectations and dishonest curriculums that rewrite history and reality.
Fixing inner city schools would require hard decisions that will of necessity abandon a segment of the population that is destroying everything around it. Hard decisions are not popular and don't "buy votes", so they will never be made.
Meanwhile, schools in out-state areas away from the inner cities continue to do a passable job of educating our children. That's why the left is pushing Common Core and Obama is expanding Section 8 Housing into rural areas. Uncontrolled immigration is the final piece of the puzzle. The elements are in place to complete the destruction of education in America. With education destroyed, American culture will quickly fall.
Excellent write-up, although still probably a more positive take on things than I’d serve up. I see the country as having passed a point of no return, and has fully entered its death-spiral. Once faggot-marriage was pushed through without backlash, it was the symbolic line-in-the-sand that showed me that America has fully embraced evil and depravity, and has for all practical purposes rotted to the very core.
Dirty little secrets WE ALL KNOW ARE TRUE:
We gotta get RID of the Moslems. They DO NOT mix, or play nice with others. They chop heads, both figuratively and literally.
We gotta get RID of the Mehhicans. They DO NOT mix either, and are a HUGE drag on the economy and hemorrhage $$$ south of the border to boot..
Those two ALONE fix half of our problems.
We love our little gloom and doom parades here on FR. If you want to change the world, you gotta get off your fat butt and get involved.
That means attending village council, schoolboard and county board meetings and demanding your rights to fair taxation, a proper education for children and give warning that you will not allow your liberties to be usurped.
You need to elect a 2nd amendment, constitutional sheriff in your county. That gives you the legal and armed muscle to take down leftist bureaucrats, abusive police chiefs and lawless prosecutors and judges in your community.
If all you do is sit in front of a computer screen and whine, you will be run over and crushed.
This entire article can be condensed into the following statement:
When a people become too civilized to do what’s necessary to survive in an uncivilized world, they won’t survive.
Another Chicken Little op ed.
It’s man’s basic nature to be at his best during hard times and at his worst during good times. It requires discipline and character not to be ruined by too much prosperity and most people simply don’t have it. When we’re hungry and desperate, we’ll rediscover the traits that will restore our bounty and security until it inevitably leads again to our demise.
WOW!!!
Until our nation turns back to God we will continue to devolve into the destruction of our own making.
QUESTION OF THE DECADE!!!!
“...When a nation is beset by problems too big or too difficult to solve...”
Sorry. Right out of the gate with BS...
The ONLY reason we have ‘problems’ is because of GOVT exceeding their legal, Constitutional boundaries, that the rest of D.C. and, more importantly, We the People, refuses to put back in their pen!
