What happened to our country?

Easy..

The propagation of the humanist/materialist/socialist agenda by the government school collectives, the Marxist saturated university system, and the communist infested entertainment business.

People stopped being responsible for themsevlves and their families. Adults think that its someone else’s job to take care of them.

We turned our backs on the God of the Bible and kicked Him out of schools. Then we legalized and encouraged the murder of Gods children in mothers womb.

Blow up your TV, throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try an’ find Jesus on your own.

Black people who had been freed a century before were still not treated equally in most parts of the country.

No one is treated equally...folks need to get over that. You need to fight for what you get and not sit around expecting certain kinds of treatment.

Many women were limited in their businesses, political, and professional opportunities.

Then start your own d@mn business, build your own political base (like Maggie Thatcher), start your own d@mn law firm.

Long story, short...quit your beatching and get to work!

As a nation, since 1973, we have butchered millions of innocent, defenseless children to the god of convenience - and we have the gall to wonder what is happening now?

God has said, “Enough!” and He is judging this country.

Nobama is part of that judgment.

It is only going to get worse, because we are too proud and too busy to repent and return to Him.

Madison Avenue, Democrats (all of them), Hollywood, Rap Music, Abercrombie and Fitch et al, the public school system.

Yes, I do miss America. It becomes tiring every morning checking the news stories, and reading of things like grade-school kids being suspended for using their fingers as guns, or taxpayers being forced to pay for sex-change operations for murderers in prison. Things that are just so wildly demented, no one in their right mind could have conceived of them a few short decades ago.

Plus, it would be nice to once again be able to turn on the television some evening, and within minutes not be revulsed to the point of wanting to vomit, by something I encounter.

The problem is the news media.The news media is liberals/democrats/socialists . The news media create the false reality we live in . but the news media is the democrat party so the problem is the democrat party.

Less than a 100 die in mass shootings , millions die of other things, 300,000 women get raped, 2.5 million home invasions per year in America but all we hear about is about 1 event that stupid shooting which the mass shooter did to become the media’s darling , a world famous household name

The news media want to take away our guns so then the government has a monopoly on guns and so absolute power.

but the news media is the democrat party so the problem is the democrat party.

What happened to our country?

Simple answer. We are no longer the same country demographically or culturally.

The U.S. adds one international migrant (net) every 36 seconds. Immigrants account for one in 8 U.S. residents, the highest level in more than 80 years. In 1970 it was one in 21; in 1980 it was one in 16; and in 1990 it was one in 13. In a decade, it will be one in 7, the highest it has been in our history. And by 2050, one in 5 residents of the U.S. will be foreign-born.

The nation’s immigrant population (legal and illegal) reached 40 million in 2010, the highest number in our history. The U.S. immigrant population has doubled since 1990, nearly tripled since 1980, and quadrupled since 1970, when it stood at 9.7 million. Of the 40 million immigrants in the country in 2010, 13.9 million arrived in 2000 or later making it the highest decade of immigration in American history, even though there was a net loss of jobs during the decade. Growth in the immigrant population has primarily been driven by high levels of legal immigration. Roughly three-fourths of immigrants in the country are here legally. With nearly 12 million immigrants, Mexico was by far the top immigrant-sending country, accounting for 29 percent of all immigrants and 29 percent of growth in the immigrant population from 2000 to 2010. The median age of immigrants in 2010 was 41.4 compared to 35.9 for natives.

87 percent of the 1.2 million legal immigrants entering annually are minorities as defined by the U.S. Government and almost all of the illegal aliens are minorities. By 2019 half of the children 18 and under in the U.S. will be classified as minorities and by 2042, half of the residents of this country will be minorities. Generally, immigrants and minorities vote predominantly for the Democrat Party. Hence, Democrats view immigration as a never-ending source of voters that will make them the permanent majority party.

Since the 1965 Immigration Act, our pro-population growth immigration policies have fueled major demographic changes in a very short period of time. In 1970, non-Hispanic whites comprised 89 percent of the population; today they are 66 percent; and by 2042, they will be 50 percent. The Democrats, under the banner of multiculturalism and diversity, have forged a political coalition that depends on individuals coalescing around racial and ethnic identities rather than the issues. The continuing and increasing flow of minority immigrants, mostly poor and uneducated, provides a natural constituency for the Democrats, which see them as their principal source of political power.

The 2012 election marked a tipping point. Although whites voted 59% to 39% for Romney, it was not enough to counterbalance the minority vote with blacks voting 93% for the Dems; Hispanics 71%, and Asians 73%. Demography is destiny.

What happened to America?..... Look at the TV right now; a vast wave of blind imbeciles standing arm to arm chanting Obama. Willing like blind sheep to be led by a fraud into Marxism.

May God bless America because it's His help we need, NOT OBAMA'S.

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

When people are well off it’s natural to feel some degree of guilt for those who are not. The rational response is to reach out through charitable institutions or churches to aid the needy, the irrational response is to steal from those perceived to have more than some nebulous concept of what their “fair share” might be. Likewise with horrific events like Sandy Hook-a measured rational response is appropriate, but hysterically action for the sake of doing something, even if it’s wrong, may salve the neurotic impulse in the short term, but will only do more harm than good in the long term.

[[What Happened to Our Country?]]

It’s very simpel what happened- Fox news did an ingterview with a woman right after the first time his highness was elected- and asked her why she voted for him- she said somehtign along the lines of ‘So I can git me soem of that orbamer money’ and when asked where she thought that moeny was goign to come from, a crap eating grin came across her lying liberal me me me first face, and she said ‘It’s free- it’s just gobernment money- it’s free’

It’s pretty clear what has happened to this coutnry- this country said it no logner wants to take care of the poor, the sick the downtrodden, but that it now wants the rich, the middle class, the healthy, thos who are capable of supportign htemselves, to ‘git htem some of da orabama money’

America spoke loud and clear this second election- they said with a colelctive voice- to hell with takign care of hte sick and poor- I want soem of dat money before it’s all gone- why shoudl the sick and elderly get it all? I’m healthy and I deserve it more because healthy peopel can enjoy itm ore’

Basically that’s it in a nutshell- This new generation is NOT about fairness and equality- they are abotu GREED and SELF INTEREST They want everythign for free and they want the governemtn givign htem money on top of it-

In the “bad old days” Blacks were treated unfairly, yet the vast majority of black children were raised in 2 parent families.
In the “bad old days” the vast majority of black fetuses was protected and when given birth, was cherished and nurtured.
In the “bad old days” the vast majority of blacks went to schools that were dedicated to education, not indoctrination.
In the “bad old days”, the vast majority of black youths did not live in fear of being tommorrow’s news story.
In the “bad old days”, a black mother was really quite sure her child would return to home safely.
In the “bad old days”, the Black Church was the foundation stone of a strong family and community culture.
In the “bad old days, the successful black business man was not vilified as “being too white.”
There were truly things wrong in the “bad old days”, but why is it never pointed out that some things were RIGHT?

It’s not the guns - back in those “happier times” kids took their guns to school and participated in shooting clubs or went hunting after school - and no one was massacred. Therefore it must be other societal factors such as the increased exposure to violence in society today via games, videos and music. Add to it the decrease/rejection of biblical based values on how to treat one another and respect.
