9/11 18 Years Later
The remembering of this day 18 years ago September 11, 2001, and then again in 2012 the united states or it’s sovereign properties around the world were attacked killing American citizens. I consider where we are 18 years later, 7 years later. I wonder what happened to the America united. It seemed for so long that America was a united front. Today, it seems the divide here in the United States has breached down to the very core of not only a difference of opinion, but to the very essence of American values. Today the value of life of an unborn baby is means less than the push to say college student loan debt is unfair. Recently a city in California deemed the NRA, a terrorist organization. No NRA member has committed a mass shooting (so far as research has turned up). Yet because the NRA supports the second amendment and is an advocate for gun rights, but also gun safety and education, it’s deemed (illegally as a city cannot deem an organization a terrorist organization) a terrorist organization, and by definition any citizen card holder of the NRA is breaking the law in that city. Thousands of citizens in that city are now criminals just for supporting the NRA. What sense does it make to make fishing without a license more illegal than an illegal immigrant coming into the country illegally?
I find it interesting how social security is always running out of money, but welfare is not, money that someone has worked for, compared to welfare something that is largely being given away. I find it interesting how drugs to save a life known as Narcan is free, but a drug to save a life known as Epi is not. I find it interesting how we are told to be tolerant of Muslims feelings, and Atheists feelings, but the rights of Christians are being whittled away one law at a time.
I find it interesting how we are able to turn the word truth in this country to mean literally anything. This new idea that truth is subjective and what’s right for someone is alright, and doesn’t have to be right for everyone. I find it interesting how the government is so dysfunctional that there is so much animosity towards the leader of the country that the current democrats are so focused on impeachment with a year left till the election, that after one failed attempt after another, still focusing on that, spending money on such a futile effort, instead of working to fix big issues, such as the humanitarian crisis at the southern border. When you have members of the democratic party calling those who are trying to keep the southern border safe akin to Nazi’s, we have a problem.
These are just some of the current issues the US is facing today. It’s a sad day indeed that we are not the country we used to be. It’s sad that we have forsaken our Lord Jesus Christ and have walked away from being a Nation Under God. We have taken God out of the home, out of schools, out of the law. We no longer have a moral compass, and we no longer have a sense of right and wrong. We have a problem and it’s not a gun problem, but a heart problem. We have become a nation of moral decay, and instead of coming together and being under God, we are throwing stones at faith based ideas, and we now worship self instead of Jesus.
When a leader claims “some people did something” referring to Senator Omar’s statements around 9/11, it minimizes the enormity of the events this country faced. Her comments minimizes the efforts of all those involved, and yet while I praise freedom of speech, speech has a cost, and it saddens me that she and others like her still have support of the American people. How sad a day it is that we do not hold ties together any longer, and seemingly unable to work together to solve problems, and face the future together.
