Zombie apocalypse? It’s here…
If you’ve been watching television for
about a year now, you may have noticed that there’s a lot of shows
dealing with the gruesome. There’s zombies, vampires, even werewolves
now and then. What is the fascination here? You don’t need to watch
television to see some of these creatures…you only have to venture out
onto a street where there is a protest of some sort taking place. By
and large, and this is just my opinion you understand, the protesters
march along with their signs and bull-horns blaring out their slogans.
When questioned about what they’re doing, a majority of them do not
seem to know why they are there, which leads me to believe in zombies.
We all know, or should, what a zombie is…a person that has no will of
their own and is responding to some sort of stimulus…at least that’s my
impression.
Between political correctness run amok,
and the general apathy evidenced by young people today, we are being
faced with the very real possibility that our country will be run by
these zombies. In a time when you can wake up one morning and claim to
“feel” like the opposite sex and therefore be allowed to use a bathroom
of that sex, it doesn’t bode well for people who DON’T think that way.
The PC crowd also wants to eliminate all manner of gender labels, to the
point of ridiculousness. In some colleges and universities it is
frowned upon to call people by ANY reference to their gender. So you
have banned phrases like “you guys” and words like “Sir” or “Ma’am” and,
heaven forbid that you should utter something about patriotism, you
might well get drummed out of the class!
What’s wrong with being patriotic? We
know, because the Supreme Court says so, that it’s alright to desecrate
the American flag, even to burning it. That’s free speech and it’s
covered. What isn’t covered is the possible consequence of a couple of
men(Oh…can I use that word?) coming up to the flag-burner and beating
the crap out of him or her. See, free speech, or any action, always has
consequences and some of them might be unintended on the part of the
person committing the act. Again, what’s wrong with being patriotic?
During the Vietnam War, which was undeclared by the way, the saying was
that if America was good enough to live in, it was good enough to fight
for…which led a number of Americans to flee to Canada and stay there
until it was all over.
