Default Memorial Day

It's not a happy holiday, but one we must take. We remember those who gave their lives for our Nation. It's not about the hot dogs and beer. It's about those brave men and women who made it possible for us.

God bless the fallen and their families.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!

Well put . I just hope the parents take sometime during the day to explain to their children the meaning of Memorial Day and the sacrifices made by many men and women so that America can stand as the greatest nation there ever was.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
