As I See It

America, Respect, and What it Means to Me
 A compleat man has an opinion based upon factual research or personal experience, not what someone told you, even your dad. Grow up, form your own opinions, and act like a man. If you don't like the actions of our elected officials then get involved. If we all do our part and inform ourselves, as men should, changes can be made. To be a compleat man involves finding issues that matter to you, informing yourself, and fighting for them. You don’t need to have an opinion about every issue but as a man you should have a few you care enough about to fight for. If we truly are a government of, by, and for the people, who is really to blame for our slide from the greatest country on earth to our pathetic standing now? It is my opinion that it is the responsibility of every American man to be an informed citizen. By saying I don't care or not reading up on what you need to know in order to make informed voting decisions, you demonstrate the ultimate disrespect to anyone who has given service to this great nation. Let's stop disgracing the greatest men who ever called themselves Americans and make a change. By using our liberties given by our Constitution, as American men, we can and will make a change for the better. The alternative is to continue as "Sheeple" (people who act like sheep), oblivious to the real world, wandering aimlessly under the misguided perception that everything will be fine. Just remember, the sheep getting led to the slaughter would put up a fight if they knew what was coming.                                    -S.
