“But what of your family? What about your friends? Would you be willing to accept the loss of their lives too for your freedom?”
You’re mistaken. If they die, it won’t be for HIS freedom, it would be for OUR freedom. Friends and family are not exempted from liberty’s occasional tax collection, unfortunately.
My kids are all grown and the last two are close to being out. They were raised as strong patriots (all boys were in Corps in actual combat billets) and would be standing with me. If not I am ready as there would be nothing left to enjoy in the country anyway.
