By the Bolsheviks. Sooner or later, my line will be crossed. And it seems like it will be sooner rather than later.

I get every word Dennis. As has been posted further up the thread by people who understand how the Bolsheviks slowly creep over the political opponents of freedom. Be strong in spirit, this is where they have a difficult time with Clay quenched irons in the fire Christians.
I met a Russian defector. He was a long distance swimmer, and a believer. He was arrested and imprisoned when they suspected he was swimming his way to freedom instead of just training.
10 years of deprivation, and forced med’s.
Upon his ‘reformed’ release, he only wanted freedom even more.
He went back to training. Did extensive research as to best place to put in to begin his swimmers exodus. He read German studies on colors less attractive / attacked by sharks, red!
He was not an intimidating man, though he had to be physical-mentally-&-spiritually strong to even contemplate his quest.
This event took place in near early 1st term or PE-40, Ronald Reagan. I met the man in 1994 as he was invited to speak to a small group of us in my port town.
There are more details, though I prefer to keep it brief. This man did not have the anger or frustration that all of us experience from time to time. He had a single focus.
28 years ago, a Russian school teacher taught me the lesson of freedom. The indomitable spirit of never giving up, never losing faith.
When I watch the current National SITREP, I understand there is a popcorn phase the nation has to go through. The entire devolution theory does not escape observation here. An animated contest of sorts.
Things will get froggy like October 1962 in some manner. We’ve enjoyed a 60 year life cycle since then. It’s time to program a new batch of conservatives in CONUS & The West. That’s the problem with the soft socio-political underbelly and up-bringing of The West.
Let’s fix this $#!+ with good strong minds, indomitable spirit, bent knee, and chin up upon arising.
You are not alone in this daily battle.
