    The world just seem to be getting worse all the time. Sometimes I feel like society has changed and there is not a place for me or others that may share my veiws. It seems like the majority has become so preoccupied with being fair and correct that they have only made this a worse place for everyone. Media tries to make us sympathetic towards the criminals and makes people who are patriotic and outspoken look like the real threat to society. We have changed in many ways and most for the worse. It is true we have become to materialistic and we have lost many of our values in the proccess. We have let our Goverment have to much control and to many people have become dependent on our Goverment. We are living in dangerouse times and if we do not make some changes I beleive we will see the end of the the United States of America as we know it. The liberals have gotten a strong hold in our Goverment and are taking away our freedoms little by little and one day we will not have anything left to fight for. We need to teach our children values and to be independent. We need to open our eyes to the events happening around us and be prepared to take action. Goverment in moderation can be a good thing but Goverment in excess is not. Now more than ever those who share these veiws need to work together as one.

    I bet there are people in here that still wipe their * with toilet paper.

    Do u know there are countries that don't use toilet paper, like Jordon.

    I went to Jordon and ate at a restaurant
    Went to the bathroom and they had a hose that u used to wash ur fanny using ur hands
    And now that u have shirt on ur hands u really wash ur hands

    Now ur thinking, O! that's primitive, I would never do that.

    Well let me tell u something, u can wipe ur * all day with toilet paper and it will never be as clean as washing it with soap and water

    How many of u seen people using the bathroom and never wash their hands. I've seen at least 70 % that use the bathroom and just rushed out
    I bet if they had shirt on their hands they would take the time to wash

    And these same people when on vacation like for a week or month will pack their dirty underwear that they wiped their * with toilet paper will bring their laundry home with them.
    When I go on vacation and I go a lot, I throw my dirty underwear away. For a lousy $10, $20 why drag it home and through customs. No wonder those security people use gloves to go through your luggage

    Now guess what, America has invented the tubeless toilet paper

    Somehow, I doubt your post will fall into the 'stir' category here! "Sad but true." And we all do need to do as much as we can to halt, if not reverse, this slide.

    People with true patriotic views ARE a threat to this GOVERNMENT,and to the sheeple who are content with the way things are.That idea of patriotism, is consistent with the Founding Fathers vision of our nation, which is far removed from what we have today.While the constitution is sympathetic to the ACCUSED,many in the name of political correctness,have twisted it to mean sympathy for the GUILTY.
    Political correctness survives and even thrives in our society because it keeps many (over) educated types employed,and (over)paid.
    Crumbling value systems keeps lawyers(to which this country has a plethora)with something to do.I keeps many university professors in demand and gainfully employed because if you get right down to it,the way our government was constructed by the Founders,higher education was not neccessary to understand, and participate in the political process.
    It was your right to decide to either get an education and reap the rewards that an education brought you,or if your idea of the pursuit of happiness was to be a farmer,or hunter, etc.,that was fine to. But in any case,YOU COULD NOT BE EXCLUDED FROM THE POLITICAL PROCESS!
    Major multi-national corporations could not exist under the constitution in it's original form, because it is not the responsibility of the federal government to support,bail-out and otherwise prop-up private or publicly traded companies.We have a tax system in place that is structured to "redistribute wealth", a socialist ideal.THIS WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE THE JOB OF OUR GOVERNMENT!The Welfare system was never suppossed to be!Before the great depression, who cared for the sick,elderly and infirm who could not afford the most basic of medical services? Family, community, churches.
    Political correctness and the evolution from Republic to Socialist state
    that we are experiencing,did not happen overnight.Reversing the process will also take time, and unfortunately,may,at times,be bloody.
