God, Guns, and Guts Built and Maintain America. Ever was and ever will it be. That all too many have chosen to ignore this truth (at their own peril) does not nor cannot negate it.
I refuse to accept this notion that "life in America will never be the same (Post 9/11)." Sorry, it's ALWAYS been the same. Stick around long enough and sooner or later something bad will occur that requires a firm response. That's why full preparedness, which presupposes nourishing the constant will to be prepared for anything, must rank second to nothing IMO if the Republic is to survive.
Mr. President, I love you, but I need no guidance as to how I can help. I know what to do.
Over and out.
