The only question that any of us need ask ourselves is this: "Do we value freedom more than we value comfort and the approval of our fellow man?"
If our answer is "No," then we have nothing more to say or to complain about. We have accepted our fate as slaves and as the servants of others.
If our answers is "Yes," then we should do everything within our power, using all of our skills, abilities and resources, in the struggle to maintain and to ensure our own freedom, and in the doing, we will ensure the freedoms and liberties of others.
My own resources are quite limited, but I have time and an internet connection, and I can string words together. I have changed the course of the history of my state and of this nation, and I will continue to do so as long as there is breath in my body. No one, and nothing, will prevent me short of death.
This is my purpose, this is my mission: Freedom and personal sovereignty.
...anything less is slavery.

THE FINALINSPECTION
The Marine stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Marine,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the Marine waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Marine,
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
