Seven Ways Young People Can Keep Our Country from becoming Officially Screwed

If America continues to

• diss God

• follow cultural coarsening Tila Tequila types

• whiz on traditional values

• weaken in our chutzpah

• stop spitting out babies

• say “muy bien” to this insane illegal immigration invasion . . .

then as a super power we will be in more trouble than a naïve, giggly good-looking drunk chick sportin’ a mini skirt at a Tommy Lee keg party. We will be toast. Period. End of story. The universe will be against us, and we don’t want to tick the universe off.

No civilization has lasted long as King of the Hill when there was a death of faith, a degeneration of morals, contempt for traditional values, a collapse of culture, a paralysis of the will, a decline in its native born population, and foreign invasion that wasn’t resisted. Google it if you don’t believe me, as the aforementioned is well known 411 regarding nations that have Gary Busey-ed their being into cheesy tourist spots.

Hey America . . . we’re not invincible. I know it looks like it, but believe it or not there have been powerful civilizations that are now a cartoon of what they use to be, and it would be the height of hubris to think that this party will never end no matter what we do.

Look, silly fool, if we forego the foundations upon which our country was built and start winging it with “progressive” principles instead of our old school traditional values, substituting God’s eternal blueprint for some secularist wizard’s ideas for a better mañana, then we officially put ourselves in line for historical butt kicking. And we have plenty of enemies hoping that we will blissfully blow off the very nitty-gritty that got us to this place of global greatness. Fo’ shizzle my nizzle.

I think God, in his crazy patience, is giving Americans (at least those who still give a flip about our country) a brief window to cowboy up and go back to the basics. If we do—great. I believe that with a lot of work we can still salvage this thing. If we don’t . . . then we shouldn’t gripe when we see our motherland turn into tripe.

In addition, I believe young people who embrace traditional values are principle players in this momentary stay of execution.

So what can the young God- and country-loving dude do? Well, you (and 45 year old guys like me) can do the opposite of what the secularist weeds want us to do, namely:

1. Embrace our faith like never before.

2. Revolt against the immoral vomit.

3. Cheer on traditional values.

4. Applaud and own our culture.

5. Quit being squishy wusses and steel up our will.

6. Spit out babies.

7. Tell foreign invaders to come here correctly or go back to their sucky countries.

Have you ever been to a village in Central America?

[A_Former_Democrat]

I think we are too. From terrorism to allocation of resources to internal divisions . . . hard to be optimistic anymore.

This guy write great. If he is 45, he sure jumps the generation chasm and talks to those fine young Americans who are either going to inherit a great, or a “sucky” country.

I beg to differ. This guy reminds me of some of the teachers I had in high school.

Faced with classes full of bored 16 year olds, these teachers would try to inspire interest in math, physics, or Old English literature by "casually" using outdated, misapplied youth slang. Or even worse, you'd have a white, suburban, middle-aged woman "rapping" about Boyle's Law. This would inevitably inspire cruel mockery from the less sensitive students. The good students would often feel like their intelligence had been insulted.

I think the author's heart is in the right place, and I applaud him for trying to help young people. I just think a a more toned-down approach might work better. A forced, artificial replication of youth culture is only going to appeal to those kids who are already on this guy's side.

Way to go!

[Little Ray]

Actually... you’re wrong. Check the murder rates of Rio, Mexico City, etc. Outside of resort areas, many third-world countries put our crime rates to shame.

[Chaguito]

Thanks for responding with an argument that I can check out. That’s refreshing.

“Have you ever been to a village in Central America?”

Have you ever read?

[Chaguito]

I asked you first.

Actually, I have, and you have a point. My experience in Central and South America has been in countries that have lower crime rates that the US by half. Shouldn't depend on personal experience.
