Yes, there are good people left. Solid, rugged and determined. But on the whole, person for person the American of today is the faintest fraction of his ancestor.

Most will not fight. Most will however reap the benefits of those who will.

Brother, I'm really sorry to see that you have such a bleak outlook on our people. I really am. I don't know what else I can say to convince you that it's not as bad as you perceive.

I guess it boils down to a glass half full / empty view of where we are as a people.

For the record, I don't base my assertions about where our people are at on faith. It's what I see in front of me every day. The spirit of rebellion is alive in this country and growing all the time. There's a real hunger to preserve and protect what's best about our nation and its culture among us. I simply note and acknowledge that it's there, and it gives me hope.

Well the reason my outlook is so bleak is because it is the verifiable truth.

There are 350 million people in America. How many ever in their lives have taken any action other than a web post to change the circumstance of the country? I mean attend a rally. Or run for a school board. Or show up at a town hall meeting and demand answers and accountability for the BS in their small town?

How many ever picketed an abortion clinic, denied access to an eco terrorist to a logging site, rode their politicians like the Lone Ranger on Silver during a campaign stop?

How many ever did their own research and took action against their local paper/media outlet to prove one BS storu or another was in fact BS? How many ever did even the most basic of the responsibilities as an American to safeguard their rights and freedoms? Not many out of 350 MILLION people.

They can’t even give up their cable TV when they admit their money goes to fund leftism and the destruction of their country. Football is far to important. Reality shows are too important. Movies are too important. Those are the people that are going to rise up against rioting liberals and the descendants of Stalin and Mao? Thats why I have a negative outlook on our people. they gave me every reason to have one. The facts are what they are Windy. Everything above is true.

there are a fraction of us that wont take it. Most will choose the lesser evil.
