To all of you...

There used to be a time in this country where common sense and rule of law mattered and where the punishment fit the crime. There is no question that what this man did was wrong. However, can any of you honestly say that the man in this article who is facing 12 felony charges of brandishing a firearm which carries a potential jail term of up to 60 years in prison fits his crime? Think objectively about this and not emotionally. If this was your father, would you think it a fair punishment to have a clearly emotionally disturbed man in need of psychiatric help potentially go behind bars for the rest of his life over this?

Keep in mind that the weapon was a fake. Nobody was injured. Take a minute to think about how little was said in the article…nobody here knows anything about the situation or what transpired. The article couldn’t even say for certain how many blanks were even fired. I have a hundred questions in need of answers, before I would condemn this man, which weren’t answered. Have any of you asked yourselves even one? Do you believe in innocent until proven guilty or street justice and mob rule?

Think about this the next time you cry on each other’s shoulders about how your freedoms have been stripped away and how homeschooling is some perfect pill that will somehow transform society, influence thousands of young minds to learn to read between the lines and think for themselves instead of being led blindly by enemies to freedom in our media, government and education.

I left a higher paying job to march into enemy territory every day to do something all you people mock me for yet probably wouldn’t last a day in. I’m active in my school, my church, my community, my Tea Party, the NRA and the Heritage Foundation. My wife and I are both gun owners. In other words I’m actually on the front lines slogging it through this culture war. Are you? Or do you just post to a blog and call it a day?
