Losing Our Freedoms One By One

One upon a time, in a place close to our hearts, there was a land founded on freedom and liberty. Fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters, all fought and died to allow the people of this land to live their lives freely. They could worship how they chose, they could eat what they wanted, read what they wanted and even smoke if they chose to.

Now, in this land of freedom, the people can't worship how they want for fear of ridicule. Pray and the Pledge of Allegiance can no longer be said in school, for those who have no belief in God, have overruled those with faith in God. Television, print and other media outlets have decreed that if your body isn't perfect, then you are less of a human being. Skinny is IN and normal is OUT! Starving yourself is the order of the day, you have to fit into whatever style is hot.

If you read the Bible, then you are a moron, who can't think for them self. It doesn't matter if you have a PhD or a 7th grade education, if you believe in a higher being in you are stupid. You most be made to conform to fit in to this new world order.

If you decide to light up a cigarette then you are breaking the law in some states in this once great land. While smoking may be harmful, as an adult, you should be able to make that decision for yourself. Being able to decide for yourself was part of the liberties and freedoms that this land was built on.

As personal liberties have been lost, this once great land, that our forefathers bleed and died for has diminished. If we don't start standing up to those who would walk over us, then we are handing them the keys to our destruction. We have to take back control of our schools, our jails, our borders and our government.

We need to put pray and the Pledge of Allegiance back in our schools. We need to empower our teachers and principals to discipline our children. Jails need have less privileges and more hard time. They need to place where people don't want to be sent. We have to secure our borders. We need to take control of our government and our so called leaders.

The Lose of Our Freedoms

America is under going a radical act from within. American citizens are slowly losing our freedoms. Sometimes we are told that it's for our own good. Smoking causes cancer, so "we" are to going tell you where you can smoke. It doesn't matter, that it has been proven that we all carry the gene which causes cancer, we are born with it. No, the powers that be will take away your right to choose what you will or will not do. All in the name of "being for your own good."

When seat belts came out, we had the choice of wearing or not wearing them. Now, it is illegal to be caught driving without a seat belt on. The revenue that is generated by law enforcement issuing tickets make up a large part of a county or city budget. It is amazing to think that at one time automobile makers were considering removing them from vehicles.

Prayer and The Pledge of Allegiance were once part of each and every school day. It's what we did before starting our day. Now, it is only found in schools associated with religious organizations. It's considered politically incorrect to talk about or refer to God, in any form at public school. Instead of using a prayer in school as a teaching tool to promote understanding, we have let it divide us as a country.

There are individuals and groups who want to take away our right to bear arms. The Right to bear arms was granted to all Americans by the Bill of Rights. No one or no group has the right to take the bearing of arms away from American Citizens. Men and women have fought and died in order to keep our country free from those who would take our freedoms from us.

Americans need to wake up before it's too late and all of our freedoms are gone. Glenn Beck recently talked about the Lose of Our Republic on his TV Show on the Fox News Channel. Many Americans may be uncomfortable with what he has to say, but maybe it's time that we got out of our comfort zone and opened our eyes and our ears, before it's too late.
