A lifelong Democrat (and Clinton donor) convinced millions of people he was a Republican, so they voted a Democrat into office based on fear that the other Democrat (the one he donated to) was worse. Now everyone is mad he’s doing Democrat things, like he’s been doing his whole life. None of this was a secret, and none of it should be a surprise.
There were other choices, other candidates, but the propaganda was just too strong. People who tried to warn this would happen were shouted down, called liberals, had their patriotism questioned, the works. Better candidates were ignored. The really sad thing is, it will all happen again in 2020 because critical thinking and the concept of liberty are dead. People don’t actually want freedom. That’s obvious.
The dumbing down of America is complete. We will get what we deserve for allowing ourselves to become a nation of sheep.
My current attitude is.............and I have been feeling this for a while..................
The point to always come back to is... how do we preserve individual liberties. The answer is limited government. The struggle to decentralized and shrink government is centered around the power to resist which means "the people" need to be armed to defend against tyranny. Disarming people allows the government to grow as they become emboldened... that's why the constant push for gun control. These stupid young people don't realize that by marching and fighting for gun control, they are fighting to take their right away to defend themselves again government tyranny. But socialist/communist forces back these marches and protests because they know it will weaken individual liberties. Americans should be armed if they personally choose to, are trained and have a permit!! I rarely hear the real issue debated, which is this: The problem of the violent use of guns is to be solved without taking away guns from law abiding citizens. Guns are needed to protect us from tyranny - the "government" oppressing us. Limiting the presence of guns because of violent uses of guns in our homes and communities is not going to happen because I want my gun so my government cannot take away my freedoms..... This IS the true intent by our founding fathers for the 2nd Amendment.

I was all onboard with you until the "trained and have a permit" part. Free people don't ask for permission from their overlords, nor do they have to be trained by them or their agents. Good post, though.

Nancy thanks for the excellent comment and upvote.
I’m all for shrinking government. But don’t agree about “training and permit” part either. Nowhere in the 2nd A does it make ANY exclusions. Mental health, gender, race, age, none of those are in there for a reason. Because that right (like the 1st A) wasn’t meant to be restricted.

The problems with our younger generation is that they don't understand the tyranny the government can impose, the second amendment is our only defense against this.

Wasn’t it our job to teach them history and shit? I’m teaching my kids but it’s my generation who is in charge right now. I can’t help thinking our parents dropped the ball and we are doubling down on our collective stupidity.
