I've always known that the way things were going in this country, we would be lucky if we lasted for another 20 years. Now, unless we change the tide, and by that I mean, we all do our share to rid this country of the vermin that has beseiged us, our survival rate will be considerably reduced.

This past year I turned 70 and likewise I do not fear for myself, I have 9 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren and I greatly fear for them.

I will do whatever I can to assure that they will not have to endure this nightmare we are living in now. That I promise you!
