It is the government's job to protect/guard the liberties and freedoms of its people. Our government has become a bully on the block. Instead of protecting our liberty, they have enslaved and suffocated us with mountains of irrational regulations. The growing unrest is a signal that there is a price to be paid for the political corruption of lies, underhanded deals, and scorn thrown toward the American public. We are not perfect by any means. But I did not believe that I would live to see this day when our country would trade the pursuit of honor and just character, choosing rather to praise those would lie to us with a straight face. What has happened to us as a people?
