your children are not too young to die in a civil war. that is one of many ugly things about that possibility.

we have to dig in and resist the efforts of the radical left to drag us into a conflict.

and yes, i have guns and ammunition. and yes, i always keep many months reserve of food and essentials. i will do what is necessary when the time comes, but i dread what will happen to our democracy and our nation if it does, and i dread what it will mean to the innocent caught in it.

picture your child dying from an ear infection turned into sepsis because there are no doctors, the hospitals are blown out ruins, antibiotics can't be found. or imagine that you and some friends take your guns and make a hike through the ruins for some z-paks, but you come home to find your house was firebombed, and they machine-gunned everyone when they tried to escape.

this is not fiction. these are things that happen every day during a civil war.

we have to cling, cling, cling to this still functioning democracy.

I guess we'll find out in a month and a half if this democracy is still functioning or not.
