Freedom

I’m Russ Reahard. I stand to pledge allegiance to the flag, of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, with liberty and justice for all. I believe we must “train up children in the way they should go so that when they are mature they will not depart from it.” (Prov. 22:6) We must teach and exemplify values for our children to emulate. So I stand up for the pledge, National Anthem and flag, to honor our country and the brave soldiers who lived and died to defend these values we hold dear: “All men (+women) are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are life, liberty and pursuit of happiness” ... (Property), free conscience, privacy, free trade, free press, freedom of religion, freedom to assemble, self-defense.
“Freedom is only one generation [or one election] away from extinction.” –Ronald Reagan.
We must have equal and fair justice by God for each citizen: red and yellow, black or white. No one should be “more equal” (that’s communism!) and allowed to take bribes from Ukraine, Russia and China (Hunter Biden), nor avoid prosecution by coercive threats (Joe Biden). No one should be allowed to subvert a subpoena (Hillary) using bleachbit and hammers to destroy evidence, including government phones. No government officials should be excused for Fast and Furious-authorizing the sale of guns to Mexican drug lords (Eric Holder) who killed hundreds of innocent people with them-including two American border patrolmen.
I want a president who stays awake when U.S. citizens are under attack in Benghazi; who won’t order soldiers to “stand down” when American lives can be saved. A president who allows soldiers to defend themselves when attacked (not have to call Washington, D.C. lawyers as required by Obama “rules of engagement.”) A president who allows military chaplains to keep a Bible on their desk and pray “in Jesus’ name” with dying and hurting soldiers. A country where our peaceful right to assemble is not infringed; where a church or business/proprietor cannot be shut down as “non-essential” and deprived of their property, work and life (Holcomb). A country where violence and destruction of property is arrested by police and prosecuted by law. A country where the innocent are defended and the guilty are not excused – neither blue nor black – none.
I believe each citizen is called to be a watchman on the wall – to defend their community and schools from enemies, both foreign and domestic. We must protect our children from debauchery, depravity, pornography and promiscuity – curriculums promoted by Planned Parenthood and violence promoted by BLM and Antifa.
For family and God’s sake we must stand up for what is right and fair and just. Our legacy is what we teach the next generation. "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people." "When the righteous rule people rejoice; when the wicked rule people groan."
Please vote for righteous leaders on Nov. 3.
