What it will look like

-

What will America look like when no one will pledge allegiance to the flag? What will America look like when everyone takes a knee or just sits on their duff when the national anthem is presented?

What will we look like when the police fail to accept jobs because they are tired of being harassed and shot at? What will happen when not enough men and women are eligible for military service because of their pot and drug habits?

What will America look like when its next generation doesn’t know God or the Ten Commandmen­ts, or concern themselves about morality issues? Will we still raise the flag and salute it, or will we just slink off to our own little space and say “it ain’t my job, man”? Why do we sit on our butts and let a tiny handful of atheists tell us we can’t display the Ten Commandmen­ts?

Why do we sit idly by and let CBS, NBC, ABC and Fox News paint a picture of hopelessne­ss for Americans in regard to the current president?

I will openly carry my firearm, salute the flag and stand while the national anthem is presented. Being respectful to our flag and to our president is done to honor our country, not the man. I will protect you, your children and your rights.

No man will ever lead American citizens to a place of safety, security and happiness. That would require all us to be on the same page and we undoubtedl­y will never get there.

All we need is to start showing one another some respect. Respect is a cure for a tremendous amount of problems we are having. You don’t have to believe what others believe, worship or practice, or like how they conduct themselves sexually to show respect.

I have never met a man that wanted to fight me or kill me because I showed him too much respect! RONALD SMITH
