A few thoughts on the preservation of freedom, and the common defense of a nation:
"Self governing is good" our Founders said, and so the Declaration of Independence was signed. A line was drawn on the town green of Lexington, and blood was spilled for the sake of free people to determine their own government, and so the Constitution was born. Again, even when all was in jeopardy, and the White House burned, a free people carried on to repel tyranny.
As words spoken on a battle field at Gettysburg still echoed in our collective souls, 620,000 of our best, and bravest met their maker for the sake of abolishing slavery, and so the Emancipation Proclamation became a reality.
Time, and time again we fought to preserve the ideals outlined by those who knew the perilous journey of freedom would not be easy, and yet we still struggle to protect the land that was purchased in every manner justified, and unjustified by hope in freedom, and the lust of greed, yet so we stand a United States.
Today, we stand on the brink of a delusion that anyone seeking refuge may enter unchecked into our land of laws rather than men, but the law was set to protect us from disease, and all manner of foreign invasion such as the lawless bring, and criminal mind conceives, and yet we shut down our government of, by, and for the people for the sake of politicians who cannot see the clear reason why they represent those who put them in their seats. Is it not worth a few more dollars spent to place freedom first, and to protect the precious gift God has given by Divine Providence rather than place in peril that which so many have given a fill measure to protect?
