Holy Shiite Muslim on a Stick!
When did Americans begin seeing weakness and dependance as virtues? How on earth did the greatest nation man has ever known descend into these dark days of cowardice and apathy?!?
How did we get to the point where we condemn and demonize the man who chooses to protect his family, while heaping sympathy and praise on the coward who lets his wife get raped and murdered in his very presence because he has an irrational hatred of guns? I just don't understand how everything became so topsy-turvy...
Our Founding Fathers were the very opposite - Strong, sure of purpose [not morally ambiguous like so many are today], willing to die for things they felt greater than themselves - so how did we as a people become so starkly different? Or could it be possible that the majority of Americans actually retain that free spirit and remain strong, but that our media presents us all as being weak-willed and afraid to further an agenda?
I want to believe that most real American people are not like the buffoons and sissies presented to us on sitcoms and in the movies, I really do... If that is not the case, however, I think we as a people are in some deep trouble.
