On The Soapbox
from the editor

  Let's talk about freedom. We as a nation are now at war because our country is different. The element that makes our county different is freedom.  But "ladies and gentlemen" we are aiming to be the laughing stock of the world if we continue to give away our freedom to the simplest things such as free speech.
  I am in the military, and the one thing that ticks me off more than anything else in America is what I call "Passive People". I work with some people who are willing to lay down their lives at a moments notice for their country but don't want to stand up and say what they think is right or wrong.
  Many Passive People will complain and gripe to their friends and neighbors, But don't vote, write their congress or do anything to make a change.


To not exercise these rights is to spit on the graves of the many men and women who died to give us these rights. 



  Right now there are complaints being made because children in schools are praying and posting "God Bless America" signs. I don't know what kind of ignorant idiot is complaining but these idiots are exercising the right that they are complaining about. "The freedom of speech." 
   The reason America is in the condition that it is in today lies at the feet of passive people.  They go about their lives and say "Oh, the Government will do all that needs to be done.  They don't need my opinion. It wouldn't do any good any way."
   Then, they stand aside and allow the world around them to affect their lives instead of their lives affecting the world around them.  This is why our country was founded. Our Forefathers gave us rights and privileges in order to be a working part of society, not just a peasant here for the economy.
   The most irritating of these Passive People are Passive Christians who have "faith that God will take care of all" but and think that their faith excuses them from their responsibility to stand and be heard.  Do Christians not know that they are charged in the Bible to be good stewards of that witch with they have been endowed.  Americas are endowed with a freedom and rights that we all are responsible to exercise.  To not exercise these rights is to spit on the graves of the many men and women who died to give us these rights. 
   Do these words sting?  Am I making you angry?  Then do something.
