Musings

So, I always wondered when the next "cycle" in American history would come about, but I NEVER thought it would happen this way. I mean, I figured at some point the phases would go from the retro throwbacks even further on the sliding scale of time into that bygone era of the boomers, but I never thought we would see the re-emrgence of militias. I mean I am all for civil liberties, but I am almost afraid to come home. Yes, I am a Soldier and yes, I have just spent over 8 months in combat and yes, I am worried about returning to America the beautiful...

Have things really gotten so bad as to have militias running around training in backwoods camps, preparing for...something. I mean who knows what they are doing! I have a pretty good idea, but I must warn you, when I do return home, I am going to use my concealed carry permit to the fullest extent of the law. I did not come over here to fight for freedom, to have mine taken away by some fanatic. Ignorance has bread a new cultrue of fear, conspiracy theorist, and down right hatred for our freely elected Commander in Cheif. People, you elected him! He can't "fix" the USA in one year and even one term would be a miracle. And what is with politicians not supporting him, i mean there is no outright dissention, but I personally believe that not nipping conspiracy theorists' ideas in the butt and allowing their paranoia to infect the ignorant is deplorable.

This is not the Nation I knew 7 months ago...
