Blocks

Was there ever a little boy who didn't like blocks?  They love to stack them. And many decide over time, that it is fun to knock them down.  

Our nation was built with building blocks or a set of beliefs. Among them was the idea that all people are created equal, all citizens have the same God given rights, such as freedom of religion, due process of law, freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, rights to property, and the right to bear arms for protection.

Over time, some have raised themselves up to positions of power who do not ascribe to those beliefs.

They have begun striking at them in an attempt to knock them down. Sad thing is, we have bred more and more of these ingrates with our educational system building egos instead of ability. We have catered to our young to the point that they expect everything without the necessity of doing anything more than holding out their hands. 

People once came to this country knowing that here, there was nothing to stop them from becoming a success at something if they worked hard enough.  That is the key: WORK HARD.  

Build yourself up by working, not but knocking others down.
