Move to another country. As a former Marine and current Oath Keeper and Three Percenter I will honor my oath to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic. Marines do not run from a fight; we run toward the sound of gunfire. YMMV.

Well said Cobra and thank you for your service.
I can't help, but think of this scene from the movie 'Open Range'
Mack: "Shame what this town's come to."
Charley Waite: "You could do something about it."
Mack: "What? We're freighters. Ralph here's a shopkeeper."
Charley Waite: "You're men, ain't you?"
Mack: "I didn't raise my boys just to see 'em killed."
Charley Waite: "Well you may not know this, but there's
things that gnaw at a man worse than dying."
I don't seek death, but my children are grown even some of my grandchildren are. Why would I leave them less than what was left to me. Why would I expect to enjoy that which others sacrificed for and yet not be willing to pay my own due to protected it even to the last full measure? Tell me Craig if you are not willing to stand and pay your due then what makes you different from those seeking to pull this country down?

Thank you for your service. But I must ask, where have you been for almost the past 4 years? Again, where have you been?
I know where I have been. I have been living as an American citizen in Panama for most of my life. Between 87 and 89, I was out in the street fighting Noriega.
Now you are going to ask why the U.S. had to come to Panamas rescue.
Answer: Nixon started the ball rolling. It quickly drove Panama into a dictatorship. Hence, this was a U.S. made problem. Nixon did not agree with the president the Panamanians had legally elected.
Eleven days later after President Arias assumed office Nixon had the new president kicked out, and the legal civilian government was replaced with the military.
There were several/many big, big heroes during those awful times, but one of the big heroes that stands out was Billy Ford.

P.S.
Something I did not want to discuss, but I will say it now: I was shot at several times.
Where have you been for the past 4 years?
I am not a chicken as most of my U.S. country folks are.
