What am I about?

There has been some discussion about the Constitution and Our Rights lately. Specifically, the way those Rights are being whittled away. The question was posed ‘what are my thoughts?’. In an effort to answer that question, many more questions came up. I am left with the biggest question being ‘What am I about?’.
I have been a member of this group for some time. I first became aware of the idea of the Threepers from digging around on the internet. I have long had the feeling that things were going south in this Country. It was because of that, I was looking for something I could do about it. And here I am….
​Before 911, I was a regular sheople. I was chasing the American Dream. And at the time, I believed in that dream. I thought I would work hard for most of my life and then kick  

back and enjoy the spoils of my effort. I shook the right hands and kissed the right asses and my career was taking flight. Nothing bad would ever happen if I ‘kept my nose clean and did my job’.
Shoot ahead now to the post 911 era. I have been awakened. I question everything. I doubt even more. I see freeloaders making a better living that I do simply by working the system. I see the new generations of citizens stomping on our Flag. I see criminals justify their crimes because of the color of their skin. I see our freedoms shut down by masked agitators.  I see the spirit of entitlement ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY. So, what to do about it?
This is the crux of my dilemma. My gut tells me to stockpile food, water and ammunition and get ready for the impending doom of this Country. I am, after all, a prepper. But, could I be wrong? Is there a way to turn this ship around? THAT is what I am trying to do by being involved in this Group. I do not have the answers to how to make political change. There are people in this Group who do have some of those answers. I hope to learn from them (and hopefully them from me). And together, we can possibly stem the tide.
So, What am I about??? That answer is still to be addressed. I have said it will take carnage to make the necessary changes in this Country, but I am open minded enough to know that there may be another way. As we continue to develop as an organization, we may find those answers. I hold on to hope in one hand, and a rifle in the other.
