A piece I wrote fir my Firearm Forum!
Cause were no better or different than the "For Our Own Good" Democruds at the Moment other than we have been losing supporters and they are gaining them since The Honerable Ronald Reagan served our nation equally(RIP Sir), no he wasnt perfect but weve had no finer American proudly representing our nation since!
Ive been a registered Republican since I raised my hand the first time to enter the Armed Forces though I cant say I have been very satisfied with that decision for some time. Not because I think the Dems are better but because we have slowly become just as screwed up as them.
We used to make our marks by demonstrated successes and Mentoring; now we demand others support what we believe or go away. They went away because our platform includes ideals and feelings that arent supported by our Constitution just the same way the Dems have been doing for decades!
All the old ways werent good and many made no sense but we dont accept any thoughts of making them legal and just, just keep them around like dirty socks. Even here at FTF, weve got some of that going on! Recently, one of our longtime members let us in on her secret; she didnt start life as a She, she was a he!
I wasnt surprised at the questions she was asked, I myself had a few but I was bothered by some of the responses other FTF longtimers I respect highly threw at her like feces! Some were vicious and extremely judgmental and tried to group her with those that dont have allot in common with her other than gender disassociation.
The more Liberal Members chimed in in ways I totally expected, many of the more Constitutionally protective members were supportive of her right to choose, yet others that refer to themselves as Conservatives bashed her like a stepchild!
She didnt really ask for our acceptance, she was just pointing out Capstone moments in her life the way we "Normal Homosapian FTF'ers" would and have. She's had most of our well deserved Respect long before her disclosure, shes a true blue American; any doubts should be erased just by reading her posts over time.
Im not yelling, Im asking; please try to focus on what made the Grand Old Party what it was so it can become the voice it needs to be, Constitutional! Accept things that are Constitutional for others as their choice, not our choices for them!
We have shot ourselves in the foot so many times joining in the FOOG Moral Regulatory Commish that were bleeding supporters to a Phucked Up party that says anything is OK even if it isnt supported by our Constitution! We are the Lords of our own manors but America is not a Kingdom; outside of our property boundaries, were all created equal, all of us, not just the ones that are deemed "Normal". The sole basis for how we determine if something is equal is simply our BOR's and Constitution, not our moral grounding.
Im not saying you gotta embrace something you disapprove of but shunning those that are breaking no laws will only ensure we have fewer voices left in the discussion. They too will leave unless they just cant get enough of a love fest without purpose.
The Republican Party is the Party of hope and change not the Democruds. Our Grandfathers and Grandmothers were spearheads, they freed the Slaves, empowered Woman as equals, created free markets, vanquished the USSR, brought down the Berlin Wall and so many other equalizers of historical proportions but today were neutered by our own shortsighted moral fabric.
Ive always hated the BS terms African American, Mexican American, Gay American, or anything that puts anything before the word American! Few truly earn the right to do so, Our Native Americans are the exception to that rule but my Oneida Indian Buddies all call themselves, American Indians, many have served in the Armed Forces.
Republicans look like idiots when we try to dictate morality to the 2% of Americans that choose alternative lifestyles when over 50% of all Americans are suffering from our BOR's being violated daily. We cant get over Abortion even when The SCOTUS said get over it; honestly, they never said we had to do it to ourselves, just that others had the right to choose it so choose not to do it and leave the libs to their legal rights to kill their babies (Just dont ask me to pay for it).
Be Conservative for yourself but be Constitutional as a Citizen of our once great and future Nation, The United States of America. Recognize that the things that make us the same are so much more important than those that we differ on that they become insignificant in the context of equal rights under the law; our only real law, the US Constitution and Bill of Rights!
