I’m sitting here by the wood stove this morning. It’s -9° outside. The dog is fed and he’s been out; tho he didn’t stay out long. He’s no dummy. Well, that can be debated.

Looking ahead on the day I’ll plan to join a friend at breakfast over in Askov. Then we’ll go walk thru the gun show being held there as well. I fear there will be a day when just saying I’m going to a gun show will result in some sort of report to the authorities. But then if we were at that point there wouldn’t be any gun shows so no need to worry.

What startles my imagination is how many intelligent people there are in the USA who are so willing to ignore truth when it’s staring them in the face. Is it fear that does that to people? You know what truth I’m talking about. It’s the truth about COVID-19, masks, the C19 vaccine; and yes, the illegitimate election results.

The truth is it’s sad that I actually fear posting that previous paragraph. You see, my fear is differing opinions no longer seem to matter. We can be silenced now thru ridicule, shaming, or guilt. We can be canceled out of the greatness that was in our country. My fear is based in reality because it is happening now. Look around. It even happened to Lou Dobbs yesterday. I don’t watch Fox News, or really any news for that matter, yet I saw the cancel culture strike out Lou.

If you are willing to be honest perhaps you’ll take notice of where dissension of speech is happening around you and in your lives. How about at the school boards and our children?

Yep, all this over a cup of coffee by the wood stove. Perhaps you’ll join me, even if we disagree. We can talk about all of the shit going on and how we can restore our great republic—without tearing each other down. If you’re able to do that with me, then it’s not too late.
