America Is On Life Support…..

As I write, the assassination of Charlie Kirk is being investigated by a team of the finest forensic and criminal investigators on this planet. The current administration will see to it. I know better than to speculate on this horror, as the facts, as they are uncovered, will be carefully metered to the public so as to not jeopardize the investigation. We do know that American Conservatism is under siege, from the media, the left and haters of our Republic. I am writing to state the obvious in plain language. Decency, tolerance, the rule of law, respect, and normalcy is vanishing. These concepts are the very essence of America and we cannot survive if they are not restored.

Our institutions of higher education, the legacy media, the radical left, and hatred is driving our demise at breakneck speed. It is hard to understand the motives of folks who burn our cities, attack our citizenry, and violently attack points of view not consistent with theirs. Our President has been spared death from a bullet and another would be assassin hiding in bushes waiting for his shot before being discovered and arrested. If you take issue with our slide into mediocrity, you will be a target of an errant prosecution or worse a killer bent on ending your life. If you can carry a point, make a case for reason, influence ordinary folks with logic and publicly support a Christian point of view, you won’t be met with intelligent argument today. Intelligent argument has been replaced with violence. Reason is being replaced with radical thought and action. Decency is no longer in vogue, indeed indecency is the tool of the radical left elements of our society.

Charley Kirk dared to challenge this new way of thinking and acting. He carried a flag for the unborn, Christians and traditional American values. He was dangerous to the radical element that has a foothold on our future, as he was able to challenge the new order and influence the young people who will soon guide our country. He was country eloquent, brilliant and well versed in the workings of government and the challenges presented by those seeking our demise. Most of all, he was wrapped in courage, recognizing the danger to himself and those like him yet soldiering on with faith in the Lord he worshipped. Once upon a time, collective reasoning prevailed at the polls, and the country established its course through leadership. Not today, another leader has been struck down. It is the way today, settling our differences with lethality.

We are in trouble folks. It wasn’t just Charlie Kirk who bled to death, America is bleeding, albeit not in one fatal moment, but just as surely. America is on life support and we know why. The question is, what are we going to do about it? This question is not rhetorical…..we are nearing the end and the world is watching. Are you in this fight or wringing your hands on the sideline? We must find a way forward……
