"Watch your school boards and city councils folks. That is where the cancer starts. Before long, you end up with people like Ilhan Omar representing hundreds of thousands of Minnesota citizens in Washington, DC. That should be a wake up call for just about anyone."
Of all the nut ball ideas of late, this latest thing to come out of St. Louis Park might just be the nuttiest. Seems the wise elders of that first ring suburb will no longer say our Pledge of Allegiance before council meetings. Huh? Not enough time? What is it then? I am still shaking my head in disbelief over the real answer. The Pledge might be "uncomfortable" to some of our new arrivals in this country. So, we will just scrap the Pledge. Soon, we will get rid of the National Anthem at ball games. Finally, that very offensive American flag flying all over the place, will be toast.
Folks - this is no longer your grandparent's America. In fact, Norman Rockwell might be spinning in his grave right now. Everything this country, once considered sacred, is now being sacrificed on the un-holy alter of PC demons. What is next? Not saying the Pledge in school? I have heard some schools have already gotten rid of it. Don't want to offend the "you know who" people.
We have seen the results of kicking God out of the classroom. And it is not good. Schools today are NOTHING like the schools of yesteryear. Many schools are mayhem where real learning is obsolete. If we follow that up by kicking any type of patriotism out of schools, they will become nothing more than education gulags for the next generation. No education, only indoctrination. George Orwell's dystopian vision of 1984, will soon be passed in the fast lane by a society which is devoid of King and country. And that King, is King Jesus.
I grieve for the Greatest Generation. Their hard work and sacrifice by leaving us this great country, continues to be besmirched and sullied by the most unworthy of us. Where this flag and Pledge hatred comes from, escapes me. It really does. This country may not be perfect, but it is far and away the best in the world. At one time, our collective desire was to create a more perfect union. Today, the desire by many socialists is to divide us into a country made up of fractional war lords.
When I was growing up in the Lake Conference in the 1960's, I loved St. Louis Park. Had friends there, and loved going there to hang out. A great city, with a great heritage. Now, you can have it. Like so many cities in this now Stalinist state, it is lost.

A brother of mine has hypothesized that these problems in fact began--unintentionally--with the "Greatest Generation." After what they'd been through, they understandably wanted their children to lack for nothing. So, runs the argument, early Boomers easily became spoiled ingrates, & then rebels.

Even some of my siblings/friends & I, late Boomers, liked to diss authority among ourselves; maybe that's a kid thing. As I grew up, I became more conservative--& I never did like leftist politics. Now Save Our Country rings as a totally appropriate concern.
