Fresno, California

Daily blog: It’s May 24th, 2021.

In Fresno, California, seventeen-year-old Christian Juvet carried out and organized a campaign to restore a neglected patriotic memorial in his hometown.

How do kids in your hometown feel about the country?

Have they been taught to hate it or love it?

Believe it or not, our public school system seems hell-bent on having them hate it. And I am not sure why. But in the end, it’s the parents’ responsibility to raise their child. And the Juvet family did just that.

Great job, Christian.

Balance

Daily blog: It’s May 17th, 2021.

I just read an article about Brazil running out of water due to the lack of rain during their rainy season. And they are expecting crop failures.

Now I’m no rocket scientist and could be wrong, but looking at the area from Google maps shows it being deforested to grow more and more crops; a mistake people in the past made, and one they could be repeating today.

There, like here, we walk a fine line between growing to sustain ourselves and growing to make insane profits.

I Blame The Hippies

Daily blog: It’s May 10th, 2021.

I blame it on the hippies. As a child of the sixties, I saw the fun and sun Beach Boys sound give way to the psychedelic bands of the ’70s.

My life during those years resembled Beaver’s in the TV series “Leave It To Beaver.” I could run, play, and do as I please as long as I was home by dark. Space launches were still big events, and superheroes could defeat the enemy by themselves or at most with a sidekick.

Then the images of war started showing up on TV, and I became one of the first kids to ever watch its carnage on the nightly news.

Yes, the times, they were a-changin, and The Merry Pranksters were traveling across the country in their multi-colored school bus, handing out LSD and the message of “free” to all who would listen.

From Monterey to Woodstock, it was now cool to drop out and drop into the drug scene. And it was this free love anything-goes ideology that has taken us to where we are now.

Having said that, I must say the hippies did usher in a lot of good things, good people, and good ideas. But the idea one can live free on the streets and do drugs their entire life was not one of them.

Nothing is free; someone had to build the roads and infrastructure that today’s counterculture wrongly believes they have a right to, along with your hard-earned tax dollars, which most feed themselves with.

Yep, those friendly hippies like to look back fondly at the world they created, but most never take responsibility for the mess we see on our streets today. And while there is nothing wrong with a good party, at some point in life, you have to grow up and play the role of a parent, to be the square, for without them you would have no free country to live in.

Mother’s Day

Daily blog: It’s May 9th, 2021.

Happy Mother’s Day, what a great way to celebrate the caring women we call mom. But some people disagree with the word mother, and as usual, want to make a big stink out of it.

Yes, the gender-neutral crowd is at it again, this time wanting us to say “Birthing Person” instead.

Sorry, Gender-Neutral Nancy, moms deserves more respect than that. So go find your own birthing person and have it change your diaper because the big stink over the word mom smells like a bunch of BS.

False Alarms

Daily blog: It’s May 7th, 2021.

In cities and towns across America, citizens lay awake at night, concerned over the corruption that has embedded itself in every facet of their lives.

It’s the real story of 2020, 2021.

And the nightly news continues to throw out one false alarm after another to cover it all up, hoping to distract us.

“Look here, look there,” they say to turn our attention away from the latest political hack who got caught red-handed.

I rarely turn my television on these days; with the mindless banter turned off, all is well. But still, like so many others, I lay awake at night worrying about the future of our country.

Like so many others, I am ready for the corruption to end.

The Cicadas Are Coming

Daily blog: It’s May 5th, 2021.

In a few weeks, billions of cicadas will come out of the ground, shed their skin, and fly to the treetops.

Yep, it’s going to be a wild party for these harmless playboys who’ve been waiting underground for seventeen years, and I wish them well.

Sing loud, my cicada friends, as loud as you can. Your love song will find a girl and bring peace to the hometowns lucky enough to have you.

Yessiree, I’ll take the sound of cicadas over the mindless dribble coming out of the TV any day.

It’s Your City

Daily blog: It’s May 1st, 2021.

If your hometown is Philadelphia, PA, and you do not replace your representatives with people capable of managing the city. You are part of the problem.

People talk about homelessness but refuse to accept that addiction causes most of it; it’s not the other way around. There are programs for homeless people, but most refuse it, choosing drugs instead.

So, if your hometown has streets that look like a dump, that people shit and piss on, that people routinely die on. If your hometown has these things, and you let your politicians remain in power.

Then what you see below belongs to you.

Why?

Because it’s your hometown and you are responsible for it.

Board of Elections

Daily blog: It’s April 30th, 2021.

If you do not know the names of your county’s Board of Election members, make it a priority to do so.

You can find their names, email addresses, and phone numbers on a county’s Board of Elections website.

For example, my county’s board of elections website has the names here: 

http://www.votedavidsoncountync.com/About_the_Board.html

And my state’s board of elections members can be found on their website:

https://www.ncsbe.gov/about

The 2020 election has shown how important these people are. And it is up to us to make sure they are doing their jobs properly.

So add your state and county’s Board of Elections website to your bookmarks today. And if you have any concerns, give them a call. They work for you and should be able to answer any questions.

We can no longer tolerate late night mail dumps. And 2022 is right around the corner.

When Criminals Become The Law

Daily blog: It’s April 28th, 2021.

The American people can save this country from socialism by becoming self-sufficient, thus cutting the ties that bind us to Washington.

A self-sufficient town can not be controlled.

Yep, It’s time for a little top-down house cleaning. The top being us and the bottom being the people who work for us in the federal government.

I refuse to let dystopia rise any longer.

Hometown America, let freedom ring loud and clear in the ear of every politician. And If your hometown is Louisville, Kentucky, you might want to give them an ear full. Their disrespected police officers are leaving in droves, and the crime rate is spiking. Funny how that works. Police haters there are about to find out what real street justice looks like when the criminals become the law.
