Walk The Line

Events of recent history indicate that Americans are setting a course
For the end of their own great nation

The ever growing trend
In this country is to judge people
Not by their individual character
But by their identity as a member of a specific group
No one has ever succeeded or failed in life as a result of their group affiliation
A person's success or failure is also not based on luck
But on the sum total of the decisions that they have made

Those who succeed do so through good work ethic
And their wise use of their power to choose
The opposite is true for those who fail
The ideals of individual accountability and responsibility
In the United States are dying everyday

A gun cannot be responsible for a death
Just as a shovel cannot be responsible for digging a ditch
Both are only tools, that have no will of their own
Responsibility is an adjunct through conscious choice
And is the price we pay for freedom
Freedom is also a tool
It is an essential tool needed by human beings if they are to prosper
Rather than to merely survive
Yet there are those who would rather
Trade their freedom for security

Some believe that it is the responsibility of government to provide for you
In truth we form government to ensure and protect the freedom
That is already inherently ours
