We are entering a new period where we will find ourselves facing an incredibly dangerous asymmetrical warfare mission conducted by Islamic terrorists of all stripes, aligned with homegrown domestic terrorists, and our response must be a hard, determined resolve to stop it dead in its tracks before it takes off and takes more innocent American lives. The law enforcement agents cannot be everywhere at once and often are not present in the first moments of a terrorist attack, and so, that leaves it to the good, decent, solid, and courageous Americans to fill the void by way of their own armed interventions in order to thwart evil wherever it rears its ugly head.
Empirically, ALERRT data shows civilians halted 73 active shooter incidents between 2000 and 2021, many with firearms. Cases like the 2022 Indiana mall hero and the 2007 Colorado church defender illustrate this. But politically, Marxist-Maoist anti-American states’ gun controls – championed by fools like Gavin Newsom – disarm the virtuous, favoring criminals and terrorists, which represents a partisan inversion of justice. As a liberty-loving, life-defending American, I decry these “laws” as antithetical to the Second Amendment and our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, as I have always sought to empower my fellow countrymen against tyranny, foreign and domestic.

The more I see the more I remain convinced this nation is on an accelerated path to another civil war. The events that one might say started in 1833 to set the stage for civil war in 1860, steadily intensified and increased in number over that 27 year span over the issue of slavery.
In the dim glow of my easy chair, beneath the spell of classic rock anthems, jazz riffs, and soulful blues, my mind drifts through the labyrinth of a life forged in fire. Sixty-nine years on this spinning rock, and a profound sorrow grips me – not for myself, but for America, for humanity’s squandered promise. We enter this world as innocents, brimming with potential, yet too often we descend into baseness, immorality, and outright evil. What does it mean to be human in a world where the Golden Rule is trampled underfoot, where man’s eternal battle against his fellow man and the merciless forces of nature reveals our deepest flaws and rarest triumphs?
I’m an old man now, by some folks’ reckoning, and I don’t scare easy.
All the facts surrounding the ICE shooting of Alex Pretti still aren’t out, but I am of the mind that he absolutely got the ass beating he deserved – and maybe he did deserve to be shot if he still had his pistol on him and was reaching for it. But as near as I can gather, he was shot after he was disarmed, and if that’s the case – well Damn – ain’t that some real shit.
America is facing a coordinated ideological insurgency that uses immigration chaos, sanctuary policies, and far‑left protest movements and their useful communist Idiots as instruments of revolutionary change. This insurgency is seen as rooted in Marxist-Maoist ideology, supported by sympathetic institutions, and amplified – though not necessarily completely directed – by foreign adversaries and the financial backing of entities such as the Chinese Communist Party.
I look around at the modern world, and I see a pattern – a deliberate, well-worn path that leads always in the same direction. The headlines change, the slogans are rebranded, the hashtags sway with the wind, but the destination never does. The left’s moral crusades, when stripped of their sentimental packaging, all spiral back to one central obsession: the deconstruction of God’s design for sexuality, family, and moral order.
This is just a short little concise poem that shouldn’t require any real explanation for the average reader, I should think – that is – if they have been paying the slightest bit of attention over the past couple of decades. I always used to write with the assumption that my average reader would be somewhat intelligent enough to not require every little assertion of statement followed by paragraphs of proof, but as the years passed, well… You already know where I’m going with this.
So many of us are deeply troubled by the direction we find America following these days, and while all we want is to live free and peaceful lives, at every turn in the road, it appears that Big Government and its Big Brother agents have become ever more motivated to ensure that we can’t, as they add to our to our troubles unnecessarily so, each and every day in the name of our general well being and security – trampling and eroding our freedom and liberty every step of the way. 
This is what comes from “retiring” sooner than a man should. But truthfully, I must say I’m glad to be far and away removed from the madness of the corporate spinning and endless cycle of psychological bullshit aligned with all the politically correct programs that still persist in the corporate world today – that bullshit that ultimately led to the Woke movement and so many other detrimental and destructive programs across society, that which allowed the Transgendered Movement to grow to mammoth, militant proportions and tried to make the mutilation of children appear to be as ordinary as ordering a piece of apple pie at Mom’s Diner on 41A in Murfreesboro.
Trumpism embraces the best and the worst of two sides of the political aisle, in a frenetic fashion that sometimes supports and defends freedom and liberty while trampling both at other times. It is a pitchfork populism that isn’t really making the reforms to government necessary to take the American people along a path to truly living free, and instead, it is bringing closer to fruition the very thing that so many liberty minded Americans reject – a massive surveillance police state that is on track to remain and grow as an ever more mammoth and intrusive Big Brother/Nanny State, as President Trump cannot seem to divest himself of his statist and globalist inclinations.
America cannot remain on its current trajectory forever, pushing constantly for more growth and more spending as our so-called “leaders” unchain the federal government from any and all real restraint, violating the Constitution even as they put on a good front – talking points and all – of trying to reduce spending and the size of the federal government. They may end one agency, but two more spring up, and although many often refer to our Congress as “the Swamp”, nothing has become more apparent than the fact it’s one big, nasty Sewer that leaves everything it touches covered in political bullshit far and away from anything the people truly ever asked to receive or even wanted.
I truly do believe that President Trump really loves America, but for some inexplicable reason, his past connection with the Democrat Party and its propaganda really took hold of him in the early days. And despite all his protestations to the contrary, his Democrat leanings and proclivities continue to shine through his so-called “conservative” rhetoric on an almost weekly basis. One cannot truly trust that what he says today will be standing as his ironclad conviction tomorrow, and that is a maddening thing to witness, since it by its very nature acts as a subversive element against America and suggests that America’s own founding principles and convictions are of little or no consequence to him.
Many conservatives may have some problems with many things President Trump is doing in this second term, but to date, nothing he has done has been blatantly illegal, as depicted by six Democrat know-nothing seditious assholes recently. Now the same can’t be said for his first term, when he suspended the Constitution over the Covid outbreak and violated all Americans’ inalienable God-given rights and individual liberty.
