To: Never on my watch

Why do you need to depend on elected officials? All of us MUST have the courage to stand up to this monster we have allowed to overrun us. Our founding fathers risked their health, their wealth and even their very lives to gain our freedom from oppression. Are we so enslaved by our creature comforts that we would not do the same?

If we are not willing to keep our freedoms, then we deserve the chains of slavery.

“I know not what course others may take; but as for me... give me liberty or give me death!” Patrick Henry

I don't.

I couldn't agree more with that sentiment. In fact I fully expect that will soon see how our generation measures up with the patriots of the past.

I just dread the fact that we have to go through these turmoils when the elected officials don't do their job. Every bit of this was avoidable.
