At least we have front row seats, as we watch the death of freedom in America.
I have always believed that “public servants” who took an Oath to the US Constitution would honor that Oath and not only question orders given which seem to be in violation of that Oath, but refuse to obey them. They have a moral obligation to do so, it seems to me.
I first took the Oath on March 4, 1963, and have taken it eight times since in the course of my military career. As an Oathkeeper, I have repeated it several times at Oathkeepers meetings. I have never violated that Oath.
It has become apparent to me over the past few years that the Oath no longer has the power over “public servants” that it once had — people do what they need to do to keep their job, Oath be dammed!
We are at a critical point in our Republic’s life. If Patriotism, Love of Country and Constitution and Rule of Law do not become more meaningful in the day-to-day functioning of our society, we may very well become a failed state.
I am not willing to bequeath a failed state to my children, my grandchildren or my countrymen!
