17. It's not just NRA garbage

Fri Mar 8, 2013, 11:31 PM

Mar 2013

It's the fact that the overall public (thinking and non thinking) is becoming more acceptable of everyone from people of all colors, people of various sexual orientation, and people of various economic means.

Slowly, ever so mind numbingly slowly, the American public is beginning to realize it is all of us against the very few elite. The more we fight each other the less energy and resources we have to fight our real enemy.

If this country can survive another 50 to 100 years of "growth" we may finally throw down the shackles the elite keep us in and end these groups of blind hate.
