All this feeds right into my theory that America has been successfully terrorized.

We're so afraid we're too stupid to teach our own kids, we send them right back to the same high school that made US stupid so we won't be alone in our old age of stupidity.


It's all based on fear .... even President Trump's wall.

(boy, am I gonn'a get it now .... )

Just about every law is based on the fear that someone will do something TO us or that we might do something to someone else and we have to be stopped or re-directed.

How many of us have re-posted one of those " ... and we survived" type memes where we're reminded six of us drank out of the same NEHI bottle of grape soda, rode bikes without any protective gear, climbed and fell out of trees, broke our arms and had the girls feel bad for us, etc., etc. ?


We went in to WW2 unafraid and came OUT unafraid.

But somewhere around the 60's all of a sudden, social experts became god and they got clout in our political machine and .... well ..... here we are.

We went into WWII afraid of what the world would become if America did not fight against the Axis.

Not all fears are irrational, or the result of mindless indoctrination.

I repeat: We entered WWII because of fear - it was just a different and more courageous fear than many of these others.

“Loose lips sink ships.” That is a fear-based motto from back then, and a valid one.

President Trump’s call for a wall is not based in fear. It is a logical addition to border security for our nation
