Here in America, on the political scene - what's happening on the international stage has never been more important. And it's not going to start now!
No way. As always, it's what's happening stateside that matters: jobs. Illegals. The Drug War. And the ever-burning question: Our State and National Parks!
That's right. Our State and National Parks have never posed a bigger threat to national security. Because with so many of them being shut down for lack of operational funding in the budget, these vast tracts of scenic land stand all but open, empty. All but unguarded. How soon will it be before terrorists move in? These vacated Parks have all the makings of a potential paradise on earth for domestic terroristas and Al Quesda cells alike! To move in and set up shop. To train. To pitch their dirty barracks in abandoned nature centers and campgrounds. To take scenic hikes, paddling about our pristine lakes and rivers, holding campfire singalongs and enjoying whatever unholy hot-dog substitute their various religions allow! Almost certainly to be accompanied by s'mores. Even the worst excesses of the Islamist terrorist fringe can't possibly resist the deliciousness of that hot graham, melty-chocolate-marshmallow confection.
What are YOU doing to protect our State and National Parks from becoming hotbeds for terrorism? NOT ENOUGH! Get out there! Tell your governors, your congresspersons, your senators and senatresses! Tell them our State and National Parks must remain open to the public, so that our ever-vigilant eyes - working in concert with our dedicated and justly gun-toting Rangers - can work to safeguard these treasured areas from those who stand for some, most, or all of what we as a nation don't.
As Ben Franklin said: Liberty isn't enough. Safety isn't enough. Tell those who give up the one for the other: Deserve's got nothing to do with it.
God-damn it he said something like that. Now it falls to us. We better heed those grim words.
