To: Defiant
Beautifully said, Defiant. You have summed up in just a few sentences the real and indescribably painful tragedy that is felt by the remnant of American patriots, the number of whom is growing smaller by the day.

Since the 60s, I'd estimate, each generation of Americans has been less aware of their proud heritage, and, as a result, less aware of the precious value of individual liberty, which is precisely why there is always an increasing number of Americans who simply don't care about the former (God forbid) and aren't willing to defend the latter.

All of the patriots you mentioned who fought, and many who died, in those wars will have died for no reason if we contine to forfeit our liberties and allow ourselves to be enslaved. It's impossible to wrap one's mind around the immensity of that ingratitude.
