Fascinating. Putting aside the notion that only people that express fairly deeply conservative beliefs count as "sane", that's an interesting post. What part of the country do you come from, a more rural area?
I suspect you must find some recent events and some shifting sociopolitical demographics objectionable, if you don't mind the questions.
Greetings!
Hello, CarlD! Yep, I currently live out here in the wilderness! I often joke with my friends that I live in this little farm town on the edge of nowhere, up here in Idaho. Lots of forest, and wilderness. Lots of little farms and ranches. Going for a walk about, just a stretch over from my house are several fields full of cows that "Moo" at me when I walk by. Some folks have some horses, and a few goats. It's nice having neighbors that actually want to get to know you. Folks are always helping neighbors out here where I live. Everyone around in these parts go to church. If you ain't Christian, they think you're weird. Folks here love America. Police are respected. Men are respected. I was chatting with a young girl at my gym. She told me that feminism is evil, and corrupt. Women and men are different from each other. The man is supposed to be the leader of the family. Being married and having lots of children is good, and right. She loved to go hunting and shooting with her family and friends. She enjoys going to the range with her guns whenever she can, between work and school. She's studying to finish her degree as a veterinarian. I was quite surprised to hear a woman that was under the age of 25 talk like this, and express such views.
Yeah, most folks I've talked to up here believe that liberals are pathetic and insane. Liberals, SJW's, Antifa, they are all mindless, godless communists that hate America, hate the family, hate our military, and hate God and our Christian faith. The government needs to put a stop to all these anarchists and rebels, attacking good citizens in the streets and at schools. These kinds of people should be given a good ass-whooping, and put in prison. All the godless, atheist professors in our schools are trying to brainwash and poison our children. The feminists have worked for years to destroy the family, and pollute the whole nation with their filth and their lies. Good women know better. Good folks that love America and love God know that all those people and their wicked ideas and philosophies need to be rejected, at every turn. Like one woman told me at my barber shop--
"That's why, sir, you need to find a good woman up here. The women in the big cities are all whores and trash. People here don't believe in abortion and feminism. We believe in strong families and loving God. And, 'round here, we love and honour our veterans. Our brave men standing guard is what keeps us safe and strong."
A woman approached me at my grocery store. I was wearing a hat that had the Marine Corps Emblem--our globe and anchor on it, and Marine Veteran, underneath the emblem. This young woman stopped me in the banana section, and told me, "God Bless you, Sir. Thank you for serving us. America needs our warriors!"
My checkout girl, a sweet young girl, rang my bill up, and proceeded to tell me; "I made sure to include your discount, sir. Thank you for serving our great country. You're new in the neighborhood? Yes, we love our veterans here!"
Geesus! I was stunned.
As I said though, people around here think very differently from the constant liberal jello you encounter in the big cities all the time.
Everywhere I go, I always feel like I am honoured and respected, by children, by the young or old, men and women alike. I'd also add feeling *appreciated* being somewhat different from honoured and respected. It's very nice, and refreshing.
Questions? No, I don't mind at all, my friend. Ask away!
Semper Fidelis,
SHARK
