Because we are more concerned with gender identity and political agenda in our schools, I promise these numbers have not gotten better since 2018. Keep that in mind the next time you drive over a bridge. It was designed by an engineer who by educational standards, ranks 30th in the top 79 nations in the world. Better hope they were top of their class. Guns guns guns. Everyone sounds like a scratched record. Wanna talk about "gun control"? Lets talk about what really matters. When the next shooter comes along to shoot YOUR kid, or your wife or husband, what's gonna stop him? Know who stopped Ramos in Uvalde, Texas? It wasn't a cop. It was an off duty Border Patrol Agent. OFF DUTY. Good thing he had his gun with him, huh? Think folks. Just stop a second and think. I know its hard and you don't want too, but we are at a junction in this Nation that if we don't, we stand to lose everything. Gun Control does not stop bad people. Good people with guns do. Little story: every once in a while, Dad would break out that belt for no apparent reason. Know what he told me? "Boys are always up to something. Got to keep them in check". Sounds harsh? Maybe. I don't hate him. As a matter of fact I am grateful. I was a wild, wilful turd who only had one thing on his mind: girls. He installed a discipline that got me through two tours of combat. I attained the 3rd toughest degree program in the Nation with honors. I own a business and despite all the crap going on, I have something I can claim and be proud of in this world. I raised a good son who is passing on that wisdom to his kid. I am not suggesting whipping kids with belts. I never did. What I am suggesting is focus on the "tomorrow" of our Nation, our children. That is where our salvation lay. And if we don't get a grip on it, go ahead and curl up in a ball and call it quits. Let the Ramos's take over. Because they are going too if we do not step up as parents or as a society. And finally, stop trusting the damn government ya morons. After 10k years of civilization, not a single form of government ever, has actually had the people's best interests at heart. Trust your neighbors, your family, your fellow Americans. And trust those who legally own firearms... You might need their help one day.
