Good post! "Hold the Line" is so apropos for today's culture. Just had a discussion w/classmate from med school why all the gender trans stuff was unscientific, and "let's agree to disagree" gets kids permanently damaged. Some are left unable to have kids (even if they decide to live as the opposite sex!). I could tell I gave her things that hadn't been considered before. (FYI- ACOG in our worlds is the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. LOL)

Pretty wild how the whole "do no harm" idea has been completely flipped on its head when it comes to permanently damaging people and how it's being taught and pitched as if it is "medicine." I guess we shouldn't be too surprised though. Moral debauchery and the assassination of the truth consistently happen when empires fall; and always happen when a people turns from God. Pretty funny how different our ACOGs are 😆

Excellent post G! Speaking truth has a cost. Thank you for being brave enough to do that.

It'd have been nice to not have to!! No point in stopping now I guess...they can't take much more from me 😉😆

Garret-

Another outstanding post. The logo is so applicable. Even though you took a break, it’s well worth the wait to hear what you have to say again. You are certainly a “mighty warrior”. And one who is a gifted writer as well. Don’t ever lose sight of those wonderful words in GODS WORD from Jeremiah 29:11: “ For I know the plans I have for you, plans for your well-being, not for disaster, to give you a future AND a hope”. (CSB) Well done. 💪🏻

Great Post. I believe the pen is mightier than the sword because it makes many people think of what could be it can touch thousands where the rifle can only touch one at a time. Words from men like Edmund Burke, Friedrich Hayek, de Tocqueville, Ayn Rand and Mark Levin. But lets not forget the printing press and with it the greatest book the Bible was available to millions. Keep moving forward Brother we have your six.

I was hoping you'd say words from men like me 😂😆😂 just kidding. That would be "boastful pride of life" (1 John 2:16) at its pinnacle 😂

Thanks for the comment; and for reading. I often wonder if anyone actually reads these, minus the couple family members and friends I know of. Haha. Thank you, Mr. Cain 🙏

Garret I was hoping that you would get that you are one of those men. You are a Hero like my father. I can remember my mother getting a telegram and crying because of orders to report for duty to the 11th SFG during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Not until years later did I understand what that uniform and funny hat was in his closet when I saw the Green Beret with John Wayne. It inspired me to serve as a member of the FDNY from Fire Fighter to Fire Investigator.

You are too kind and too gracious, sir. 🙏

I humbly appreciate your words. Hailing from the fabled 101st Airborne Division, and original heritage of 2/506 INF Regiment's Easy Company, Dick Winters' words come to mind, "One day my grandson said to me, grandpa were you a hero in the war? And i said to him no I'm not a hero, but I have served in a company full of them." Us Suspendables certainly aren't the size of an Army company, and I certainly am not a hero. But I have met a few, and we carry the same torch forward. Seriously, thank you for your comments. Thank you for your service in the FDNY. Thank you for yours and your family's heritage of service; and thank you for this personal story of a small part of what that service entailed. America needs men like you and your dad once more; we need heroes again.
