In the 1960’s they protested against “the man,” and today they are that which they claimed to have been against.
I am to the point that I feel like I can’t even breathe. They are tracking every little thing or claiming to be without out warrant or cause.
I want to say...what has happened to my country? But, our truth is ...we have let ourselves become deceived and lazy.
A few weeks ago we had a really bad storm hit our area. High winds, hail, heavy rain, and funnel clouds. Many of us retreated to the basement, but when the storm was over and we all came out of our little houses...minor damage was around. The biggest pending damage was the street had become flooded and water was backing up into some of the homes. In the background and without power...sirens of police cars and fire trucks wailed. Someone said ...”somebody should call the city to come clear the drains.”
At no point did this person take the initiative to call the city. They thought in all the ensuing emergencies around us that were higher priority...we should call the city about the storm drains.
Myself and a neighbor returned from our garden sheds with our heavy duty rakes and pitchforks. People’s homes were at risk of flooding in an area that never floods. We began clearing the drains of the debris the winds had brought down. As the water began swirling down the drains in a powerful vortex a few other neighbors joined in using their lightweight rakes to catch and toss aside the floating debris.
The point of this story...”call the city” to fix it in the middle of a crisis.
It reminded me of how dependent people have become on the government. They would depend on the government to save their own homes, indeed they were depending on someone else to even call the government...rather than pick-up the pitchfork to clean the debris out from around storm drains.
Folks, there is a lot of debris floating around us. We all know they are violating our God given Rights and some how many of us are depending on the people in government to clear the debris ...when we really need to be using our garden pitchforks.
They are flooding our freedom away. And the longer we wait around waiting for someone else to do something about it, the more damage to our “home of freedom” is done.
Good story and so typical. What goes hand in hand with that is every time something happens that some people don’t like they want a new law passed outlawing the activity.
