This is just a rant, mods can move it if they feel they need to, but more pedes are feeling like me.
I live on the same land my great great great grandfather was given by the second continental congress gave hime for his service in the Revolutionary war. I've probably had a relative fight in every war weve ever had. Lost my brother to Desert Storm (I made it back), the sandbox has seen my 2 nephews over many tours. My election was stolen in 2020, and it seems that this country that I love is turning communist. My commander in chief, told me when the election was stolen, to put away my guns; that him and the military had this. I know he was not lying, I have enough critical thinking skills to know he is still the President, and some bad people are being arrested. I know that children are being saved by the military, the children are the biggest part of my patience. I know in my heart that God wins. I am ashamed of myself, because even though this is a long war, and things are happening; I have just stood by (well, i have been trying to wake people up) and let my countrymen die, some of my family die, and so many fellow citizens of this country be hurt. My sister says that I should be proud that I recognized what is happenning and stood down, But I dont know. Part of me (a minority part) sais get myself and nieghbors together, go get our guns and sleeping bags and do stupid shit, but i know this is wrong, but that same part of me feels ashamed that I have done nothing. Sorry, this is a rant, but i know im not the only patriot that feels this way!
You my friend are a true Patriot. I have never served the military and sometimes I get the feeling we should grab our guns. But like you said, we must wait this out and hold the line. President Trump accomplished all he campaigned on and then some, during his first four years. He is simply accomplishing his "Drain the Swamp" that he did NOT get accomplished as this was always his plan for now.
God bless you and keep holding the line. If we get impatient, we must pull back on our reins and don't let our horses run. God will see us through. Amen.
