To Which I Replied...

Excited? Well, to be brutally honest...

Yesterday she asked if I was excited about "the big day tomorrow". I told her I was rather depressed about it actually--it is the choice between the lesser of two evils. I then asked if she was excited about it. "I. Am. SO. Excited. About it." she said. I wanted to tell her how many people were murdered last century by attempts to make socialism work. Was she excited to be a part of the next attempt? Was she looking forward to adding her body and the bodies of millions of others to the pile?


Those who do not learn from history...

Hell-- Those who do not TEACH history to their children...

Remember Lily


Lily Burk's story is about a young girl's trust and our failure as a society. It includes a family friend of hers who joins the discussion and unbelievably offers the beliefs that perpetuate these horrors. Read the posts and comments starting here.
Never forget that these people exist.

Remember James Broadnax


He wounded and executed two Christian music producers for $2 and a car so he wouldn't have to walk home. Watch the interview with the remorseless murderer that changed my life.
Never forget that these people exist.
