Save our History
"Our Monuments"
Good morning Linkies, Happy Hump Day! This morning while on my routine commute, heard on the Texas State Network News, a law was passed in the state house, all monuments in the state of Texas will be protected by the state. Local cities and counties no longer have the authority to take down any monument in the state. Honestly wish this same thing would happen in other states. Part of the statement the spokesman said, "if we erase our own history that would be a very bad thing" Well, I'd say that is putting it mildly. What has already happened here in the United States can NOT be changed. Too many bad things have happened in this country since it's founding. Other side of that coin, many good things have also happened. In spite of it all, no one has the right to deface any monument or statue. My question is when and where would they stop? I mean if they were allowed to try and get rid of all the monuments they wanted to. In the future is someone going to try and bring down the Lincoln Memorial? I would willingly stand and protect that place with my own life!
Do hope and pray more people in our country wake up and ask their congressman and senator to support leaving our own history in tact. Any new immigrants coming here in the future have NO RIGHT to try and change the way our country looks. Any new legal immigrant has any right to try and change the way we have been running our government. Pray that we can get back to the way things use to be. Things have changed quite a bit since the first day Obama stepped into the White House, and NOT for the better. Far as any new immigrant to our country, they have a right to come here, and a right to work, raise a family, and try to live the American dream. Way too many things to list here what I hope for in the future. One thing I pray to God for, is a normal life for my grandchild coming into the world in July. Hope this baby will not be a victim of crime or any evil act. I plan to try and help my son protect this child no matter what. Have faith Ladies and Gentlemen. Please help me with protecting our country and what is was founded on.Save

5 年Someday you’ll understand that protest and the right to change govt is born from the will of the people. The American ideal is not in a statue. We don’t need to honor racists or Christianity. If anything, Christianity has shown its intolerance for secularism in this country. I dont want any god thanks. You can believe what you want, but don’t ask my government to support your religion over mine or lack thereof.
