GASOLINE: HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT AND IT'S AFFECT ON YOU?
It's been a while since I've posted on my Blog, but, I've pretty much been in a fight for my life. I worked part time for a nationally known car rental service (which will remain unnamed). My job was two days a week, driving a shuttle van and shuttling cars. I worked Monday and Friday. On Thursday, one of our gas pumps was damaged from a new employee was about to pull away from the pump with the nozzle still in the car, damaging the hose. Between the time the hose was damaged and I pulled my shuttle van to fill it up on Friday morning, though it was known the pump was damaged, everyone involved dropped the ball and never disabled the pump or put up any type of warning.
After I put the gas nozzle in my van, I reached over and turned on the power. That's when the hose exploded with me in the middle of the gasoline gusher. It burned my corneas, my skin, ruined my laranyx, and finished with damaging my lungs from vapor and liquid being inhaled. There is no "fix" for lungs damaged from gasoline. Once it enters your lung tissue, it only continues to damage, eventually moving into your other organs. I am, for a better term, a walking dead man. I'm not bitter or angry. There's no use in carrying those feelings, allowing them to eat away at you. That would never change anything. My mission is to educate people on the dangers of gasoline that most people never knew, thought of or believed it could harm them. Nothing could be further from the truth. Here is the truth:
Well, I was given what I was expecting, but still hit me hard. My doctor as well as the Worker's Comp doctor are both in full agreement that I am totally disabled. No more working part time, nothing. That's hard to take for someone who never found hard work to be something to avoid. Heat, humidity and cold air are now my enemies to keep me from enjoying being outside.
I am not relating this as complaining or whining. Too many folks have it worse than I. Just take a lesson from me, gasoline is for internal combustion engines only. Don't use it for parts washing, hand cleaning or any use it was not designed for. Ensure the container you have it in, not only safely retains the liquid, but the fumes as well. The best way to store it is to purchase a chemical cabinet to keep it safely in. NEVER, AND I MEAN NEVER, SIPHON GAS WITH YOUR MOUTH AND A HOSE!!!! The vapors, and/or liquid that gets in your lungs, stays in your lungs. Once it is in your lung tissue, breathing issues begin. It then slowly moves through your organs.
Minimize the fumes you inhale when fueling your car, mower, etc., by using a chemical mask, or hold your breath and quickly move out of the area where the fumes are. While your car is fueling, move to the front of the car away from the fumes. Never hover over any equipment you are filling up. If you get it on your skin (purchase chemical resistant gloves to wear), immediately wash the contaminated area.
Sound like a hassle? Walk outside and suddenly not be able to catch your breath because the heat and the humidity cause, what lung tissue that does work, to tighten so much you can't breathe or catch your breath. Imagine walking from one end of your house to the other and losing your breath and have to increase your oxygen intake to keep from passing out.
There is no 'cure' once it is in your lung tissue. Only survival. Protect your lungs. It's easy to do if you think before you act!

CONSPIRACIES, COLLUSION, LYING TO CONGRESS, YET NO PLAN TO HELP THE COUNTRY
President Donald J. Trump has been in office for just over a month and, no matter how hard he and his cabinet (at those that are in place and not continually being obstructed bt Democrats), trying to get done the promises our President made to the American public, the distractions that the alt-left and democrats keep throwing up, just show that the Democratic Party still has nothing good to assist the American public and hide behind their circus of smoke and mirrors.
Anyone, no matter what the party affiliation, should be pushing forward any idea the President has that will make America move forward. Yet, the Democrats have no plans to move America forward, so to hide the fact that they have become a brain-dead party when it comes to us, they just continue to throw up road blocks and distractions to make the President and Republican Party look bad. Listen, I'm all for any Party who has ALL American's best interest at heart and want to, as was the President's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again!". Why wouldn't either party want this? Why indeed?
Liberals want everything that is 'different' than status quo, no matter how well the status quo is working. Their desire to see Americans prosper and the American Dream be lived out by all Americans, they prefer the majority of Americans suffer at the ideology and lifestyle, as well as lies and subterfuge, without a care as to the destruction of our military, income for the middle class or make dreams come true for the poor by making available the 'hand up' instead of the 'hand out'.
Again, to hide their inability to connect with those who want their America back, they push the agenda of their 'shadow government' pushed by George Soros and now Barack Obama to fuel violent protests and use any type of lies and whatr has a hint of interest that sounds like truth, to again slow down the positive direction and results that are already happening and being seen because of our new President and his hope and promise to bring America back to its glory days. These actions by Soros, Obama and all others involved is Sedition and should be dealt with as such. The Attorney General's office and an independant prosecutor and commitee should be investigating this, with every means they can muster, and follow the money back to the sources. All they encounter along the way should be held and tried for sedition, the intention and actions to overthrow our government. These acts of sedition need to come with a heavy price.
Concerning our President, stop being distracted by this! You are playing right into their game! Allow your people to deal with this while you do your job! Once your people have gathered all the evidence to present to the American public, then address Americans, directly (not with Twitter), with the truth! Quit Tweeting about these ignorant accusations, and keep moving forward! We voted you in to follow through on your promises, not play childhood, play ground games. Who cares what the other side throws up? YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE!! STAY WITH YOUR TIME TABLE AND MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!
To those of you who are the obstructionist: you will not win! You can hide behind your masks like a coward, but their use in protests will be banned and your cowardice will come with the price of an arrest, a criminal record and the shame any and all cowaqrds should and will carry! Trump supporters came out to support their President and to protest against the obstructions that the other side is using to destroy our Republic and Democracy, that allows us to peacefully protest, and they did so without the cowardice of hiding behind masks. Yet you couldn't allow them their Rights, you had to make it one of violence. Sedition! I support the Right to protest and have an open forum of discussion and debate, but we always debated civily, allowing all the Right to voice their concerns or opinion. However, the trend is sickening to any American or country, when people can't peacefully speak their minds, concerns and opinions. Both sides lose when violent, shout down protests occur. YOU WILL NOT WIN!
To those of you who are in these violent, unlawful acts of protests, I have a idea for you: As positive change does start occuring that could even benefit you, refuse it. You don't want the President to succeed, so you shouldn't want to participate in his success. That only seems the correct trend for you to follow. Then, hit the streets telling America and the world that you refuse to partake of all the positive results from this present administration, that can make yours and your children's lives better! Now that would make me believe you truly are against positive change and that your protests were really what you meant. Understand if I don't hold my breath waiting for that to happen. You are cowards, and protesting just to get your fifteen minutes of fame, and possibly being paid to do so by Soros and Obama's shadow government.
Let me end this by saying, "The American publis is sick of you, know who is behind your agend and who is financing it, and last but surely not least...YOU WILL NOT WIN!!"

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE...NO, IT'S NOT IN THE CONSTITUTION
For those of you who have always heard the term "Speration of Church and State" when it comes to prayer in schools, religous activity of any kind, even Christian Flags and markers in military cemetaries to name a few, let me educate you to this falicy. NO WHERE IN THE CONSTITUTION ARE THE WORDS 'SEPERATION OF CHURCH AND STATE". That statement was made in a LETTER penned by Thomas Jefferson to the Church of Danbury Asscociation:
To messers. Nehemiah Dodge, Ephraim Robbins, & Stephen S. Nelson, a committee of the Danbury Baptist association in the state of Connecticut.
Gentlemen
The affectionate sentiments of esteem and approbation which you are so good as to express towards me, on behalf of the Danbury Baptist association, give me the highest satisfaction. my duties dictate a faithful and zealous pursuit of the interests of my constituents, & in proportion as they are persuaded of my fidelity to those duties, the discharge of them becomes more and more pleasing.
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties.
I reciprocate your kind prayers for the protection & blessing of the common father and creator of man, and tender you for yourselves & your religious association, assurances of my high respect & esteem.
Th Jefferson
Jan. 1. 1802.
Now that is a letter, not a Constitutional Amendment. Congress, nor any other law making body, can make or pass a law infringing on the FREDDOM of Religion or the Free Practice Thereof! No Laws. So when someone throws that Speration of Church and State in your face, laugh and hand them the copy of Jefferson's letter.

TRUMP, PUTIN, RUSSIA, ASSANGE & THAT NASTY WORD: HACKING!!
Well, if you're not sick of it by now, you have just not been paying attention to the news. It's everywhere you look. If you listen to talk radio, it's blasted everywhere. If you read a newspaper or online news, it's splattered everywhere. Good grief, will it ever end? No. Not as long as the Democrats and the Left are no longer in control of every part of our lives and to the point of telling us who can use what bathroom, what we're allowed or not allowed to say for the sake of being politically correct, and most of all: Their ability to destroy our country with their Anti-Midas touch.
Party rhetoric and doctrine is more important to the Democrats and Left than keeping America strong and a threat and force if attacked, working to change our inner cities into a win-win scenario for those who live there, curbing crime in our inner cities, and correcting the terrible AHCA (Obamacare). Bringing back our workforce to be the strongest manufacturer in the world again, keeping the American dream, well, the American dream for its citizens, instead of giving that dream away by stifling growth with unrealistic and destructive regulations. The Democrats and the Left have one thing in mind: themselves only. We, the American public, became a nuisance to them, especially if we disagreed with anything they said.
Donald Trump won the election, fair and square, and that is not a burr under their saddle, his win is a razor blade to them. But no, someone or something else is to blame. Hence Putin, Russia, Assange and hacking are all at fault for Hillary losing the election. As far as I know, PASSWORD is kinda of a ignorant choice for your password to protect your computer, phone apps or anything else people shouldn't have access to that are not authorized to have access to your private data. Have you changed your password yet, John Podesta? No blame there, right? Geeesh. I change my passwords every 2 weeks to at least once a month. I have a 'Password Sheet" that is printed and locked in my safe, should I forget the new ones. How hard is that? No, people shouldn't be hacking into private Email. There should be a stiff prison sentence for those who do. With that said, those Emails revealed how poisonous the Democrats and Left's agenda is. I don't know if Putin and Russia hacked those Email, and watching the so called Intelligence Community testify on Thursday, 1/5/17, I still came away asking, "Where's the hard proof?" If Putin and Russia did hack the Email, yes, harsh sanctions are in line as punishment. However, before you start kicking Russia's diplomats out of our country, it should be done so based on hard, concrete evidence, not supposition or in retaliation for a poor choice for their presidential candidate losing the election.
For the last 8 years, no matter how team Obama as well as Obama himself try to spin it, the last 8 years have been a disaster for America and the American people. I have listened to Obama try to convince America his presidency was the best thing for Americans since apple pie, just doesn't add up to the condition our country actually finds itself in. Of course, for those who don't use their brains to research the condition our country finds itself in and the actual reason why, well, Pay-doh continues to make its product, coloring book companies still make coloring books, Crayon still makes crayons and there are plenty of dogs who need a hug. FREE THINKING COMES WITH A PRICE: YOU SEE THE TRUTH!!
Over the next four years, we will be seeing a lot of changes. Some even I may not agree with, but good lord, anything is better than what we have. But change is what we need to become the vibrant, working, and world strong country we once were. We need to be a country who again loves the red, white and blue. who is taught American history and proud to know it and remember that we are Americans, not a country pulling itself apart with ideologies that are based on self, not on the greater good for all citizens, not just those whose sole belief is based upon rhetoric, instead of free thinking.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!

I WANT TO WISH ALL OF MY READERS A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
I want to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas! I appreciate you as readers, but will be back on the Blogger trail after Christmas, doing what all of you should do: Focusing my thoughts and time on all of my family and friends. We will deal with the world after! :)
I just hope that Peace will reign during this time, and the violent world we live in will take a break. Too many tears will be shed this year due to terrorism, road rage and gang violence. Believe it or not, there is hope. Whether you like him or not, PEOTUS, Donald Trump, offers us a bright light at the end of what was appearing to be a long dark tunnel of liberalism and progressive ideology. So buck up, folks. Better times are coming.
For those of you (us) who are Christians, remember the One who offers us the real hope of Peace. We celebrate the birth of Jesus who is the light of the world, if they would only know Him and allow Him into their lives and hearts. Nothing and no one offers the continual strength, love and peace that He freely gave and gives. In this crazy world, He is the constant light of the world. I hope you get to know Him. Merry Christmas folks.

WHY DO WE STILL HAVE LIVE ANIMAL ZOOS?
I AM RE-POSTING THIS BLOG, BECAUSE THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT, THE MORE PASSIONATE I FEEL ABOUT THE SUBJECT. MANY PEOPLE HAVE SAID TO ME THAT CHILDREN WOULD NEVER KNOW WHAT THE EXPERIENCE OF SEEING LIVE ZOO ANIMALS I SAY BACK, "THAT WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO IMMERSE THEM IN THE ANIMALS NATURAL HABITAT, WE AS HUMANS, HAVE THE OBLIGATION TO PROTECT THEM IN THEIR NATURAL HABITAT, NOT PUT THEM IN PENS OR MAKE BELIEVE HABITATS!'
I have never been a big name animal activist, but the more I think of it, why do we still have zoos? What about taking animals out of their natural habitat makes sense? We have the highest technology ever seen in the world that could allow top animal researchers to film all animals and give us a better video perspective and understanding of the animal kingdom than any zoo ever has. We can actually see things that are only described by those who visit them in their natural habitat. Call it a video zoo, or a lack of misery zoo for animals who no longer have to endure captivity, while the call of their nature and wild is calling to them.
No, not everyone will agree with me, as I'm getting an earful as I write this from a dissenting voice. That being that, with the invention of 3d goggles that can give you the full experience of thrill rides without leaving your chair at home, why not make documentaries that will allow children and adults to be immersed in the animals habitat, their hunting, breeding, the sounds and interaction as a species without the need to rip them out of their homes? You could even capture the odor of their natural habitat and allow the smell to interact with the video. Call me what you will, but I believe this should be enough reason to no longer support live animal zoos.
Can you imagine the money that could be freed up to be used to hire more bush police to enforce the protection of animals from poachers? Maybe even put poachers out of business for good. No more big game hunts. Nature will take care of itself. To kill an animal for a trophy is my belief a sin. To kill for food and need is one thing. To kill just for sport so you can view your kill for the rest of your life is senseless, self indulgent and cruel. Yeah, put that big game gun in the animal's hand and you be the target would give you a whole new perspective on what all life is worth. We are the guardians and caretakers of this world and we need to be more proactive towards the animal kingdom.
I'm a carnivore, enjoy my steaks, pork, chicken..etc. However, I don't go around killing any animal unless it for food, or a danger to those around me. Same way with people. I don't go around kidnapping them or killing them just to kill. Only if they would become a danger to me or those around me. I just think live animal zoos are archaic and out of touch with technology and the need for animals to live and die as nature intended, not zoo keepers.
Food for thought (that may not be a good phrase).

A POSSIBLE TERRORIST PLOT IN A SANCTUARY CITY? SAY IT AIN'T SO!
Unlike the title of this Blog appears, I find nothing funny about a possible terrorist attack or plot anywhere in America, sanctuary city or not. These are Americans, in L.A., who now have to walk on eggshells of fear because of this. It's a terrible thought that something may happen, let alone actually occurring. People being killed, maimed or inured is not acceptable on American soil, because some Muslim zealot nut decides it's his or her responsibility to kill innocents in the name of their god or religion. God, or gods take he blame for so many things that Satan influences people to commit atrocities and evil. What I would tell these people, "One day you will face God in judgment and I wouldn't want to be you."
However, L.A. boasts itself as being a sanctuary city, so what in the world did you expect? Are we going back to the 1960's, that love will overwhelm the need for violence? Hmm? Sanctuary cities are just as bad as gun free zones. You invite violence and attack by opening the door to the bad guys. You might as well put up a giant neon sign stating for them to come on in and we accept whatever violence you want to do to our populace, because we want you here! How do liberals justify this possible terrorist plot? Like Chicago, gang violence in L.A. and the surrounding cities and counties has been a major problem for years! Seems to me it would be more likely for them to deny sanctuary city status and fight off immigration of illegals or refugees until they get their own house in order!
It never fails to amaze me of the ignorance liberals exhibit. Where I live and grew up, if a threat enters our area and community, our para-military forces quickly extinguish the fire of criminal activity before it can gain a foothold. We are a welcoming area to those who are here legally and are a positive force in our community By 'positive force' I refer to those who work to be a law abiding citizen, or those on the path to becoming American citizens. We are by no means a sanctuary city, county or area. We are a Bible believing, church going, and community minded area of the country. However, don't take that to mean we are sheep to be slaughtered. We are a concealed carry, 2nd Amendment, and NRA supporting community who will stand our ground. Terrorism in our area will bring a swift and deadly response to those who would perpetrate violence against us. Those who would in anyway be associated with their ideology or religion would feel the heat and need to find a sanctuary city.
In closing, sanctuary cities need to take a hint from what L.A. is going through on 12/6/2016, and seek to repeal the thought and notion that being a 'sanctuary city' is a great idea for your citizens. Instead of trying to be so liberal, you might want to protect the rights and lives of your 'true citizens' over the overwhelming need to be politically correct!

BRANDON VICTOR DIXON HAD THE RIGHT TO CONFRONT MIKE PENCE??
When Vice President-Elect Mike Pence and his wife attended the play, Hamilton, stage actor Brandon Victor Dixon felt justified in calling out Mike Pence, singling him out and read him a prepared statement about inclusiveness and all his trash. This guy felt himself so special he could say and do what he wanted to the Pences. Let me introduce you to this guy and you make a determination if the theater should fire this imposter of a true American, concerned about individual rights, is really someone who should be speaking for his views of America. Here you go!:

WHEN WILL ACTORS UNDERSTAND WE PAY TO BE ENTERTAINED, NOT HEAR THEIR POLITICAL VIEWS?
In case you haven't heard, Vice-President Elect Mike Pence and his wife attended the play in New York: The Hamilton Musical. They were booed and at the plays curtain call, the lead actor pulled out a written note and they all turned to the Pences and lectured him on who they are and how they hope he will protect their inaliable rights, to which the same audiance who had booed the Pences gave the actor a resounding applause. That is not only the heighth of rudeness, it is an outright mockery. At what point did actors feel they have right to have an open forum, embarrasing a paying customer, and especially such a upstanding family? Avoid this play at all costs if you go to New York. Please let your friends know as well....Terry

THE FIRST AMMENDMENT SHOULD BE DIPPED IN COMMON SENSE
Let me preface this Blog with the following statement: I am a died in the wool believer in The First Amendment and every American's Right to the Freedom of Speech. As long as you are not using it to push an agenda of hate, violence or the attempt to use your Right to suppress those same Rights of another or others, I will stand by you and defend your Right to speak freely, even if I don't agree with you. I voted for Donald Trump and am looking forward to the change he will bring. With that being said, I fully stand behind those who exercise their Right to peacefully protest against him. That is what so many fought and died to give us, and we should honor them by remembering what they fought for.
The sight of outright violence, destruction of property, personal attacks whether verbally or physically is not Freedom of Speech, that's criminal behaviour which is not what our forefathers fought and died for. The only freedom that those people should get is free housing and 3 hots a day for the duration of their prison time. That's called justice. Everyone who is a citizen of our country, or is in the legal process of becoming an American should and needs to understand the difference.
It took decades of work, but our new country became a country of laws and rules for us to live by. We are a country of laws that dictates that no one, not even the government is above the law. So where does that leave us in today's day and time? Well, Freedom of Speech has been perverted to where it's no longer recognizable. Opinions of others are shouted down instead of being discussed. We no longer can sit down, openly discuss issues without being called racists, homophobes, rapists and who knows what new insult they'll throw next. Those pulling the strings behind the scene love to push us hard against the wall, making us believe we are a threat to each other because our opinions and beliefs differ. I know people who are atheists (myself being a Christian), yet we aren't in each others face insulting with abusive language. Lively conversations? Sure! But that's okay. We still respect each other, even in disagreement. That's how it was envisioned when The First Amendment was penned. In today's society, if you disagree, you're beaten, kicked, screamed at and of course, don't forget the abusive name calling. How did we ever come to this? It's called Programmed divisiveness. No you won't find that in a Psychological and Psychiatrist's book or thesis. It's one I penned up.
Programmed Divisiveness is the same as what Hitler used, as well as every despot throughout history to make one group hate another, using propaganda, lies and twisted truth. Twisted truth sounds so realistic, you're fooled into believing it, that is unless you are a free thinker. If you're a free thinker, you're a danger to the Programmed Divisiveness agenda. That is why free thinkers disappear in Communist, Socialist and oppressive regimes. They can't control a free thinker. They see through the mist and fog of lies. That's a good thing, but many a free thinker has paid with their life for being one. So, see how blessed we are? Yet, we're tipping towards the cliff of eliminating free thought by listening and succumbing to the Programmed Divisiveness agenda.
It's not just the ALT Left crazies. The ALT Right crazies are just as bad. I saw a picture of a Confederate Flag next to a Trump sign at some type of rally. Here's where common sense needs to kick in. That flag should have been removed, then after the rally, returned to the owner. Again, the Confederate Flag is covered under Freedom of Speech. 359,528 Americans died defending their Right to it, and what they believed in. I know what the flag stands for. Most will say they fly it to remember the past and a way of life that should never have taken away. Of course that way of life included slavery, which was never right nor should it ever be allowed to raise its ugly head ever again. To have it at the Trump rally was a slap in the face, not just to those who are offended by it, but to what Donald Trump and his message stands for. That's a political statement, though it will never disappear completely, should have been condemned then and there. However, to follow The First Amendment, it is their right to fly the Stars and Bars and I will stand behind them, defending that right. Shocked? You shouldn't be. Differences of opinions, views and thoughts are to be defended. If not, let's do away with the First Amendment and just be silent. That's not how it works.
Still, that's where the title of this Blog came to be. I can feel strongly about about my convictions, but if I use common sense, I will know how to use my Right to free speech. I can hold true to my belief system, and encourage a dialogue without creating a mob scene. Listen America, if we don't start learning how to talk to each other instead of talking over each other, screaming and lobbing insults, a lot of people died for nothing. Find that balancing point is a fine art, but it allows us to understand our differences and learn how to be neighbors instead of hated enemies. The balance is sometimes a razors edge, but it can and has been accomplished. So, how about it America? Want to try to find the balancing point again?

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS TRYING TO REGROUP. FOR THEM OR AMERICA?
November 8, 2016 the American people spoke, and spoke loudly. they spoke about how they are tired of no longer being represented in Washington, rather they watched as politicians continued to make merry while the American people cried. American people, as a whole, became restless and tired of others (politicians) doing their thinking and making decisions for them that in no way benefited them, especially in the long run. Empty promises, lies, deceit is what they offered to the American people while they (the politicians) enriched their bank accounts, ate high on the hog, flew in luxury jets, vacations the American people could only dream of. And still they believe they need to 'rebuild' their Party.
They never had a clue or an inkling about the public's perception of the Democratic Party and the destruction and havoc they were wreaking on our country, and how four more years of them in office would have made our America disappear and become an obsolete 3rd world nation to be continually pillaged and plunder by their Party. America spoke with a loud voice, "Enough!". Still the Democrats didn't listen. All of their Hollywood buddies put together couldn't change the resolve of the American people. The night of November 8, 2016 gave an old man hope that as my days start closing in around me, that my family would have America back again.
If you answer to someone or a group of people, you need to be sure you do exactly what they want or you will find yourself looking for another job. Talk about 'shock and awe'! I've always understood my place in the world at each stage of my life. I knew my boundaries, how far to push...but more than that, I knew what my responsibilities were and what would be the repercussions should I choose to ignore those responsibilities. The Democrats chose to ignore that responsibility until the people reminded them of the consequences.
I've actually heard some of the smarter Democrats come to the realization that they should have listened instead of blindly governing. Gee, you reckon', Bubba? However, the majority of Democrats are more concerned in battling back in four years, taking control of both Houses, and retaking the White House. Hmm. I pose a question to the Democrats, "Do you want it back because you intend to do the same old same old, based upon the fine job you've done in the last eight years?" How's that going to work for you? You've ignored White America, while promoting Muslims, LGBT agenda, open arms to refugees coming from countries that house our enemies, and just open the border to anyone and everyone who wants to come, feed them, house them and give them great health care all at the expense of the American people. Of course, you didn't ask us if that's what we wanted. You just did it all on your own, because you felt entitled by your position and power! How did that work for you on November 8, 2016? Someone was watching and listening, but it wasn't you. You turned a blind eye and deaf ear to the American public. Who were we anyway? Just cobblestones under your feet.
For the next four years, you will feel the stinging rebuff of a country who has written you off as a lost cause! Maybe even longer. If Trump decides to just make it a four year stint, you will have to deal with who is becoming America's favorite son: Mike Pence. The American people will see the resurgence of their country, their economy, their military and see the country become safer, it will make it hard not for them to remember you...in a bad way.
No political party is above its constituents. It answers to them. No matter what party you are affiliated with, you have to are to put Americans first, yourself last. You work for all Americans, not just those who are affiliated with. It's our best interest that you are to be concerned with! Until you take that to heart and let that reality sink in, your party will never recover. Taking back all the Houses is not your job, it is a reward afforded to you by the American people for remembering that our country and Constitution is paramount, not special interests or those who are willing to grease your greedy palms. Until then, the GOP has been rewarded by the American public to do the job you failed to do. To the GOP: Take the precious gift the American public has given you, cherish and treasure it, because in four years you may feel a stinging rebuke yourselves.

THIS INSANITY OF PROTESTORS FROM BOTH SIDES HAS TO STOP!!
The insanity of protesters, from both anti-Trumpers to supposed Right-Wing nut s and their Swastikas and racially charged rhetoric has to stop!! Not one true Trump supporters voted for Trump, did so to incite racial hatred or fear. We don't carry the Confederate flag, paint swastikas or preach hate as the Ku Klux Klan the Arian Nation or Skin Heads, who portray themselves as speaking for white Americans, are trying to push their agenda, ruin what could be the net great step for all Americans. We have to see through all of their smoke and dust to see that they have their own agenda, as does Black Lives Matter, Al Sharpton, and other fringe groups who portray themselves as speaking for people of color. I don't believe for a minute that either side of the fringe elements speak only for themselves and that sooner than later, Americans will begin to shun them and expose them for who they really are. I hope the government goes after them as hate speech and crimes and put a stop to all of this!!
I voted for Trump and have never been ashamed of doing so. My reason for voting for him? I want o see empty factories back up and running. Not so much in the area I live in, because employment is readily available for those who need and want jobs. It's when I see the Rust Belt and know the steel mills are gone, the automotive industry is moving toward making all their vehicle abroad, and coal mine and miners sitting idle (I know I've missed some other work depressed areas, and I apologize in advance for my memory). I see these areas and how depressed they are, which leaves an open door for crime of all kinds, placing people in fear they should never live in in America. I want to see the steel mills, automotive industries and coal mines fired back up, putting Americans back to work in good paying jobs. That is what Trump wants, and that's why I'm behind him.
Trump has been called every vile name in the book and accused of every vile motive. I have owned my own businesses. I know the strain regulations and taxes do to small businesses, making near impossible to survive. What his mindset is to give those of us the opportunity to succeed. He wants to repatriate money that has moved overseas and again make it attractive for businesses to come home. He has been accused, and has admitted, to purchasing steel from China. Okay...where are the steel mills in America? I know where he would purchase his steel and iron if he mills were again in America. When I order something off of eBay, I watch from what country they are shipping from. I have purchased some items from China (which takes forever to arrive), but 99% of my purchases have come from American sources. I may pay higher for doing so, but I would prefer to help American businesses as much as possible. See, I want Americans to prosper, businesses to succeed. If we stop purchasing from China or other countries, they will eventually feel the pinch and that is exactly what they want them to feel. Fair, balanced trade, benefits everyone and other countries. So where in this is Trump wrong?
If you want to see a vibrant economy, a nation of laws being enforced to protect our country from over population by illegal aliens, your family and the sovereignty of our country safe, and the amount of dollars spent to feed, house and support people here illegally to continue, look through the smoke and mirrors and see what is actually happening. News media rhetoric, or George Soros inspired attacks and violence is nothing more than that: Smoke and Mirrors.
All we ask is give our new President a chance. After four years, I believe those who complain the most will be happy that they are working in jobs that disappeared in the last 8 years. It will be music to my ears when I hear of the steel mills firing back up, coal miner back at work, and automotive plants reopening. If you unclog your ears, and remove the earwax of hate and distrust, you will hear that happiness as well.

I DIDN'T WRITE THE FOLLOWING, BUT WHOEVER DID IS RIGHT ON:
"Dear Democrats and Liberals.
I'm noticing that a lot of you aren't graciously accepting the fact that your candidate lost. In fact you seem to be posting even more hateful things about those of us who voted for Trump.
Some of you are apparently "triggered". Because you are posting how "sick" you feel about the results.
How did this happen you ask?
You created "us" when you attacked our freedom of speech.
You created "us" when you attacked our right to bear arms.
You created "us" when you attacked our Christian beliefs.
You created "us" when you constantly referred to us as racists.
You created "us" when you constantly called us xenophobic.
You created "us" when you told us to get on board or get out of the way.
You created "us" when you forced us to buy health care and then financially penalized us for not participating.
You created "us" when you allowed our jobs to continue to leave our country.
You created "us" when you attacked our flag.
You created "us" when you confused women's rights with feminism.
You created "us" when you began to immasculate men.
You created "us" when you decided to make our children soft.
You created "us" when you decided to vote for progressive ideals.
You created "us" when you attacked our way of life.
You created "us" when you decided to let our government get out of control.
"You" created "us" the silent majority.
And we became fed up and we pushed back and spoke up.
And we did it with ballots, not bullets.
THE THUGS AND SPINELESS CHILDREN ARE NOT TRUE AMERICANS!!
All this crap going on after the election is wrong, totally unacceptable, and should be dealt with swift and complete as criminal behaviour. All involved should be arrested, charged and if convicted, see the world moving on while they hold onto the bars of a prison cell!
And they say Trump is the bigot and racist? If this continues, there is going to be a lot of dead people in the streets. We, as Americans, will not allow this country to fall into anarchy because of an election. These are street thugs who did this to that man. They are the racists and bigots. No true Trump supporter would be painting swaztikas anywhere. That was not and never was his message, nor is it now.
This country is being incited to violence by the same people who incited riots from peaceful protests over the allegedly race motivated shootings of blacks. They are there to turn something positive (people exercising their First Amendment Right to peacefully protest) into something ugly. By doing so, the true message gets lost, nor are people any longer willing to listen to their cause! This goes for blacks viciously beating and innocent white man, as well as the fringe racist white elements. They DO NOT speak for America. They speak to ignorance and hate.
Donald Trump won the election. Plain and simple. I voted twice to keep Obama out of the White House, not because he is black, but because of the Socialist agenda he represented. I am all for whoever is qualified, and has America's best interest at heart to serve as our Commander in Chief. White, black, female. Doesn't matter.
When Obama won, disappointed and afraid of what he would do to our country, yes. However, the next day after the election, I put my big boy pants on, dusted off my disappointment and lived to keep going. I didn't spout hate at anyone who supported Obama. I didn't beat those whose vote put him in the White House, nor did I march in protests or damaged property or harmed anyone. See, I come from a generation that understands what living in a Republic means. What Democracy holds for each of us, and that every four years a new election would be held. I voiced my hopes with my vote. When I didn't see the election go my way, well...in four years I would try again. That's how it works. Violence and hate will not change the fact that Donald Trump is our next president. But it will get you a criminal, felony conviction that you will deal with for the rest of your life. Put on your big boy pants America, and move on!

CNN'S VAN JONES HAS ME RILED UP!!
"What do I tell my children?" whined the CNN reporter. Poor, poor Van Jones! Another of the lying media that got their tail feathers burned on election night. Well this is what you tell them!
What is the matter with Van Jones and the rest of the CNN crowd? I voted for Trump, not because I'm white/he's white, I voted against the Clinton Cartel and the Washington politicians, as well as the special interests who are ruining the lives of 'us', you know, America's deplorable. You, Van Jones, probably get paid too much. You've forgotten what it's like to wonder if you will have enough groceries to meet the end of the month. You make enough money that watching your wife's health care go up 180% doesn't effect you. Well it does us. My wife and I don't receive the subsidies that you and your socialist friends love to enslave the African-American community with! We have to budget money, not food stamps and welfare. You and your elite media buddies make me sick! You want to know what you tell your children? Tell them daddy makes so much money that they are free from wondering about their next meal! Daddy is a socialist pig who would see his own people continual to wallow in the pig sty of subsidies while he sits high and mighty, looking down on the rest of us: The Deplorables. You speak of the KKK. You have conveniently forgotten its history. As a black American you should remember slavery. Slavery was a sickness in America that was pushed by Democrats who fought to keep the Emancipation Proclamation (13th Amendment in case you don't remember that as well!) from passing. The KKK, that you love to espouse against Trump was created by who?? Hmmm?? The Democrats. Before you start bashing what the rest of us see as the relief we've been praying for, you might want to remember history and, if you ever lived day to day, or meal to meal, what it was like before you shoot off your big mouth. You, sir, are part of the sickness that Trump wants to deliver us from. Quit whining you sniveling idiot!
Now we hear of how universities are coddling students by letting the poor babies miss tests, offer coloring books and even hug a dog day to comfort their souls because Trump won. What? You've got to be kidding, right?? Wrong. They are no longer teaching students to roll with the punches and move on. It's a 'coddle you' society when you don't get your way! And this is the future leaders, shakers, and movers in our country? Give me a break! If Trump followers had to face the next day of Hillary winning, do you think they would have been offered the same? No. Nor would they have wanted it. Disappointment would definitely be in the air as they go to their classes, jobs, and responsibilities. The difference between liberals and the rest of us is, we know how to pick ourselves and keep moving. We would learn what happened, what went wrong and move forward to correct the mistakes of the past. Good grief. Liberals are such tit suckers. Boxes of baby pacifiers should greet liberals as they go to work and school so they have a "passy" to suck on. This country of liberals has gone nuts.
I am so glad that my generation, "the last of the baby boomers" to be born were raised to be tough and love God and Country. Our generation fought and died to preserve the Union and Republic, but I'm sure this "now generation" wasn't what we had in mind. We would never disgrace our flag. Holding it was a reverent feeling. Seeing it wave was always an awe inspiring. Saying our morning devotions and pledging allegiance was not only something we did with pride every morning at school, it was our duty. Watching it burn as a protest by liberals is sickening and I wish their was some country we could just dump all these babies in so they could coddle each other and find out what it would be like to live without the protection that the strong in our country afford them. Yet, they have the Right to burn it. That's a Right strong men and women fought and died to give them. They fought and died to defend the very Constitution these babies haven't got a clue about.
Raise your children to love this country, or watch as they turn this country into something that will easily be overrun by socialists, communists or terrorists. I'm glad I'm old enough I won't be around to see it.

BE MORE POWERFUL TODAY THAN THE DOJ AND FBI!!
Just a short Blog to remind folks that today is the day, not just to take our country back, but to completely serve justice that the DOJ and FBI refuse to do: Become the long arm of the law by using your vote to remove the political trash from Washington and show all Americans that the law pertains to every American, no matter what you're name is or how much money you have. It's time to remind all politicians IF YOU SELL OUT OUR COUNTRY OR ENDANGER AMERICANS FOR GREED, YOU WILL PAY!!
Get out and vote for God and Country, those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country or came back damaged doing their duty, for the Red, White and Blue, Grandma and apple pie.
