The Awokening of those who Identify as Americans

 I believe that I, as well as many millions of others in this country, are beginning to "woke up" and  get real clear as to what they really stand for and choose what they identify as. It seems that we must word things differently than some to keep their minds from exploding  over our "old school" iterations. Take for example what is known as our Pledge of Allegiance. Everyone coming into this country legally must "Pledge Allegiance" to this great country. Unfortunately our flag and a persons Allegiance to this country is now coming into question. People enjoy freedoms that aren't afforded to citizens of any other country's. Yet they disrespect the very things and people who made it possible to enjoy these freedoms. There are those who take a knee or show other signs that they don't pledge their Allegiance to this country.

 There are lots of discussions about todays domestic terrorists, yet most of those government defined so called terrorists proudly pledge their loyalty to this great country. Yes, the are some extremists whos actions are not in alignment with the Pledge of Allegiance. Identifying domestic terrorists begs one to take a closer look at who those people really are. Aren't those who have chosen to enter this country without that Pledge of Allegiance, that we have committed ourselves to, until such time as they become legal, the actual domestic terrorists? Or those who openly choose to burn our flag or disrespect it in any way, are they not among the real domestic terrorists? There are those who have sworn to change our Constitution, seek to cancel the speech of those who are proud of being a citizen of this great country, and those who disrespect and seek to destroy our military and it's ability to fight to keep our freedoms. Are these not the domestic terrorists that our President swore an oath to protect against? Are we becoming so blind or so "woke" to see it for ourselves? Or have we become to afraid to see the domestic terrorists right in front of us. Our God given rights as well as our Constitutional rights provide each and every citizen the right to protect themselves from tyranny and oppression. The definition of oppression is "unjust treatment or control".  Our current day "Cancel Culture" is entirely based on oppression and is in direct conflict with our first amendment rights. Aren't those who wield that sword part of the very domestic terrorists that our forefathers spoke of in the Constitution? 

It seems as though the silent majority who are made up almost exclusively of citizens who have Pledged their Allegiance to this great country, are finally beginning to speak up and making their voice heard by not purchasing the "Bud Lights" or the "Targets", or the "CMT" videos. They are not  breaking windows and stealing everything they can get their hands on or burning cars in protest. The silent majority quietly yet dramatically voice their displeasure peacefully yet powerfully. There are two types of people in this world," those who want to be part of the problem and those who want to be part of the solution". Where do you stand? Are you part of the problem or part of the solution? I, for one Pledge my Allegiance to this imperfect country called America and will do all that I can to be part of the solution. May God bless this great country in which we Live, Love, and Prosper as we follow our God inspired Constitution of this United States of America.
