State of the World - 2008

We are barely into 2008 and have already had several brutal single and mass murders in America. It is apparent that the economy, war, and pervasive "diet" of sex and violence in the media (TV, movies, music, and video games) is having an increasingly negative impact on many - to the point where some feel that the only "way out" for them is to commit murder or other heinous crimes!

When will this stop? When will this nation return to the path of dignity and righteousness?

Tough questions - yes, I know. I also know that now is the time for every man in America with a "backbone" and a measure of common sense to stand up for what is right!

Now is the time to make a stand against graphic media sex and violence, hard-core and child pornography, child abuse, drug abuse (to include prescription drugs) and the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now is the time to control the proliferation of weapons on our streets and in our homes.

The future of our nation and civilization is at stake!!!

Apathy Kills

"Had I interfered in the manner which I admit, and which I admit has been fairly proved (for I admire the truthfulness and candor of the greater portion of the witnesses who have testified in this case), had I so interfered in behalf of the rich, the powerful, the intelligent, the so-called great, or in behalf of any of their friends, either father, mother, brother, sister, wife, or children, or any of that class, and suffered and sacrificed what I have in this interference, it would have been all right; and every man in this court would have deemed it an act worthy of reward rather than punishment." quote from a famous American in the 19th Century.

Question:
When are we going to stand up for our children, the elderly, and the innocent? When are we going to take a stand against wickedness?
