Florida School Shooting

St. Valentine’s Day Massacre

          It is impossible to fully comprehend the horrible school shooting that occurred in Florida this past week and, of course, our hearts go out to the students, parents, faculty and community members who are still reeling from this unthinkable tragedy.  Most of all, we mourn the loss of so many wonderful human beings who had their entire lives ahead of them and had so much to live for.  This catastrophe raises so many questions on so many levels and I wanted to share with you a few that have come to my mind.

          First and foremost, how did this troubled young man have access to a weapon of any kind?  This could only happen through a serious failure of the FBI and local law enforcement.  Numerous warning signs were evident yet no action was taken.  I fully support Governor Rick Scott’s call for FBI Director Christopher Wray to resign.  The FBI must immediately cease their political attacks on conservatives and devote their full time to keeping American safe.

          I would be curious to know how many of the 3,000 students at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida attempted to reach out to the troubled young man before he perpetrated this atrocity.  There is no excuse for anyone to commit such barbary, but this young man apparently sent out many cries for help over a period of several years.  We don’t know anything about his biological parents, but we do know that he lost both of his adoptive parents.  How many students reached out to him after his adoptive mother died just last December.  Are the words ‘Diversity, Inclusiveness, and Acceptance’ which are plastered on every school marque across the nation just that…only words?

          How can banning guns make any difference in curbing the violence we see on school campuses, when the current gun laws are not enforced?  Liberal hypocrisy is clearly evident when they decry anti-drug laws because they encourage the smuggling of drugs across our porous southern border.  They don’t seem to understand that any ban on guns would be nullified by an increase in smuggling firearms from Mexico?

          As so many have said in the past week, we don’t have a gun problem, we have a people problem.  Until we turn around the God-less culture that liberals have fostered in our country for the last 50 years, these senseless acts will continue regardless of the gun laws.

Temper Tantrums of Children

Left Wing Temper Tantrums

          It doesn’t look like the childish temper tantrums of the left-wing America haters are going to abate any time soon.  Like naughty children who don’t get their way, they are yelling, crying, hitting, throwing and spitting to show their displeasure at American becoming great again.  Perhaps the most egregious example of their idiocy is the tearing down of historic monuments.

Millennial Snowflakes

          It is the Millennials in particular, the ones who always got a participation trophy and never learned how to lose graciously, who are now going off the rails.  The liberal teachers who indoctrinated them from K through 12 ensured that they would become good little socialists and now their communist college professors are coddling them with hot cocoa, safe spaces and special counseling whenever an American speaker dares to visit their campus.

Trump Train Gaining Momentum 

          Clearly, their pathetic arguments can’t hold up to the conservatives who challenge them, so their only recourse is to throw a temper tantrum.  And their antics keep getting worse as they see the rest of the country moving on without them.  Keep it up, Snowflakes!  The more the rest of us see this display of hatred for our wonderful country, the more folks are joining the Trump Train!

Hell to You Our Alma Mater

Stop Contributing to Your Liberal Alma Mater        

          There’s something sacrosanct about the schools we attended, whether it be grammar school, high school, college or professional school.  The memories of good friends, fun activities, great teachers and graduation day stay with us throughout our lives and compel us to return periodically for reunions.  Over the years I have attended and enjoyed many of these gatherings and have nurtured lasting relationships with many of my classmates.  The affordable education I received back then has made a tremendous difference in my life…not just to my career, but to me personally and to my appreciation of the incredible world we live in.  Unfortunately, the college I attended has, like so many others, become a bastion of liberal indoctrination, basically a continuation of the brainwashing that takes place in today’s public schools.

Instead Send Your Contribution to Campus Conservative Groups

          While I still maintain my active membership status in the alumni association, I stopped sending my annual contribution several years ago.  Instead, each year I send what I would have sent to my alma mater to one of the excellent organizations listed below that promote conservative principles on campus, basic principles like free speech and the many other singularly American ideals embodied in our constitution.  In this way, I feel that I am still contributing to my college and that my money is going to help make it better.  I must admit, it does give me some satisfaction to let the college administrators know that I am sending the money they would otherwise have received to a conservative student group on their campus.  I also let them know that I will not be remembering them in my estate plans unless they make some major changes.

Don’t ‘Be True to Your School’

          The surfer song, ‘Be True to Your School’ might have been relevant in 1963 when it was released by the Beach Boys, but we should feel no obligation to financially support the schools we attended if they are now promoting socialism and hate for our great country.  Instead, join me in supporting some of the excellent conservative organizations on both high school and college campuses.  There are thousands of conservative students throughout the country just waiting for someone to give them a little encouragement and nothing says ‘I’ve got your back’ like a little financial support.  So, why not be the first to charter a chapter of one of the outstanding conservative campus organizations at your old alma mater.

Talking to Your Children Frightened by Anti-Trump Anarchists

It is Important to Talk to Your Children Frightened by Anti-Trump Anarchists

          Seldom during our nation’s history have we seen such hate and vitriol as that which has erupted from the ‘organized left’ in recent months.  The daily barrage of news reports showing angry, violent mobs rioting in the streets to ‘resist’ the new Trump administration is taking its toll on children throughout the country.  Youngsters are understandably frightened by this unprecedented display of anti-American sentiment.  The liberal mantra to ‘resist’ is of course only a euphemism for their real goal of overthrowing the United States government.  Their tactics are reminiscent of the Bolshevik Revolution that catapulted Russia into a seventy year nightmare and it is no coincidence that 2017 marks the 100 year anniversary of that infamous event.

          It is important to talk to your children about the current situation and to give them an opportunity to express their concerns and fears.  Limiting exposure to television and other electronic means of portraying these unsettling images will go a long way toward alieving their anxieties.  Paying a visit to your child’s school to make sure that teachers are not reinforcing this anti-American nonsense, as they are often wont to do, can also be helpful.  We should actually embrace this as an opportunity to emphasize the great things about America and to explain the many positive plans the new Trump Administration has for our country.  Children will also be reassured when they learn about the many great difficulties our great country has come through in the past, including wars, depressions and even failed administrations like the one that just ended.  Finally, remind your children that those in the military and law enforcement who are sworn to protect us are overwhelmingly in support of the United States of America and its new administration and will never allow these anti-American anarchists to prevail.
