It wasn't until I started working at a facility that takes in drug addicted teenagers, affiliated with the State of Oklahoma, that I started noticing how fucked up our society is. I served for 12 years in the United States Navy, and even during that time, I really didn't pay attention to how our leaders in Washington DC were running things. Even through the Gulf War.
Lately things have been getting worse. NSA snooping, IRS intimidation, treasonous president. And as I began to pay attention, I could no longer believe in our righteous leaders. I realized I was living in a country where my government no longer held true to "live and let live".
But until only the last few years, I didn't believe anything could ever happen to America. Baaaaahhh.
I trusted our education system to raise an intelligent and enlightened future generation. Baaahhhh.

I woke up, and having awakened, I feel the need to stretch. To stretch to the fullest my rights as a free citizen of These United States! The blood of our forefathers rests in the land beneath our feet. From that blood spilled rose a great nation. A great country built on great sacrifice. WE are the legacy they left behind. Trusted to keep ourselves free from those who would enslave us. We do not quietly 'baahh' to appease our own government. We cry "LIBERTY" and "JUSTICE" and "RIGHTS" in the language of our ancestors, the language of a true patriot, who only speaks FREEDOM!!!!
When the time comes to be judged, they will speak of me: He was a patriot.
