Personal Responsibility

Ya'll! Listen! 

I'm so tired of hearing people blame everyone else for things that happen in their life. Life is about making choices. Not all of them will be good ones and many will have repercussions. Some of them will be unexpected because you thought you were making the right choice such as changing jobs, moving or taking a different route home. Others have clear consequences like breaking the law, driving recklessly, drinking, etc.

We need to stop blaming politicians for the ills of our country and look at our own actions. Do you vote? If not, why not? You want to complaint about who is in office but you can't be bothered to spend an hour or 2 every 4 years casting your vote?

You don't know who to vote for? Why not? Have you even tried to do any research on what the candidates have actually done, or failed to do, during their tenure? 

Are you voting for the same people over and over and then complaining when nothing good or new happens?

You're an adult. You have the ability to learn about what is going on in the world. The entire world is at your fingers yet so many of you refuse to work to verify that what the mainstream media is telling you is right. You just blindly believe everything they put out, even after multiple sources prove them to be liars.

It's time to stop blaming anyone else for the way out country has turned out and look in the mirror. If you're not voting, that's a mistake. If you aren't researching what you read before accepting it as the truth, that's a mistake. If you hate how your city or state has devolved in the last few years yet you keep voting for the same people over and over, that's a mistake.

Take responsibility. Learn the facts. Don't follow the herd. Use your brain and some common sense. Have some common decency when it comes to your fellow man. Stop playing the victim and DO SOMETHING!!! No, I don't mean go out and tear things down and start fires. VOTE! The only way things are going to change is if the people you've elected for the last few decades, who have done nothing, are replaced by people that truly care about our country.

Do your part and stop playing the blame card.

Do black lives really matter?

Black lives matter... That phrase is all over social media these days. Problem is, black lives only seem to matter when they are killed by a white cop. Where is BLM when blacks are killing each other in Chicago EVERY SINGLE DAY? Where were they when a black retired officer was killed trying to defend a friend's store that was being looted and destroyed by rioters? Where were they when a food truck vendor was killed while trying to make a living during these violent "protests"?

If you're going to claim black lives matter then you'd better be just as outraged by blacks killed by blacks as you are those killed by a white cop. You'd better be even more enraged when black business owners are attacked and their stores destroyed in the midst of your "protest".

These people are destroying their own neighborhoods, for what? What lesson does that teach corrupt cops? What change does that make when you continue to vote in the same democrats year after year when they continue to do nothing for your community? Do you know what your violent actions show the rest of the world? It shows me that you are vile, inhumane people that don't give a shit about George Floyd. You wanted a crisis so you could continue to play the victim while blaming everyone else for your failures. You're using George's death as an excuse to violate the rights of others while claiming that yours have been taken away. 

You want to know why so many folks are leery of black people? Because of folks like those that are "protesting" by attacking other people. By ruining the livelihoods of people that had nothing to do with George's death. The looting of stores caused businesses to shut down, putting people out of work. So all you've done in your search for "justice" is make yourselves look like animals, lose support from over half the country and hurt thousands of innocent people, many of whom are black as well. 

You have a right to be irate. Your anger is justified. What happened to George Floyd should have never been allowed and the entire country is in agreement that these officers should be charged with murder. You DO NOT have the right to infringe on other people's rights in order to express that anger. At least not without consequences. 

So, if you're going to attack innocent people & businesses, burn down buildings and disregard barriers and requests from law enforcement that are in place to keep people safe...don't complain when people fight back. Don't play the victim or cry injustice when a business or homeowner shoots someone for attacking their home or store. Don't cry about excessive force when you get in a cops face in an attempt to push through a security barrier and they pepper spray you or throw you down and arrest you.

We are through with your excuses. There is no reason for police brutality. There's even less reason for these riots and attacks that are happening as a result. You must learn that your vote is the most powerful tool of all if you want change. It's time to clean house and get rid of the folks that have been telling you what's best for many years. Stop blindly following what they say. Do some research and vote for the change you claim you want. Because the current method you're employing leads me to believe you like playing the victim.

The right to vote

Once again, democrats will try anything to increase their vote count. If it's not absentee ballots for dead people, why not increase their chances by one of these methods?

* Reduce the voting age: We don't think you're old enough to buy cigarettes or alcohol. And you have no real life experience but we're sure you can make a sound decision on the future of our country.

* Allow illegals to vote: You're breaking multiple laws by being here so let's reward you by allowing you to determine the future of our country.

* Allow inmates to vote: Clearly you have no regard for laws so let's give you a chance to change those pesky laws that prevent you from living the way you want.

Democrats know that the only way they can win is to change the rules.
