TV’s Good Ol’ Days
The more I try to find a show on the television that simply entertains without being obnoxiously over-written or over-acted, the more I tend to stick with the old shows. Obviously, we have turned a serious corner with the TV shows of today. No longer are we dealing with the problems of Bob, Mary, Dick, or Millie, whose troubles often dealt with misunderstanding a conversation in the office, or when Mary had to deal with people thinking she was actually dating Ted, the newscaster on Mary Tyler Moore. These are things everyone has to deal with and they were serious situations then.
Don’t Do Us Any Favors, Alex Jones
Look, the entire problem with guns is not that law-abiding citizens have them. It’s that criminals and people with mental disorders have them and as I’ve stated before, even if purchase requirements become much more constrictive, that problem will not be solved.
Gang-Infested War Zones…
Michael’s words seem almost apocalyptic in nature regarding the depravity of gangs. “Unfortunately, most of these gangs use violence and crime to achieve their goals, and they are taking over communities all over America. If your community is not a gang-infested war zone yet, you should consider yourself to be very fortunate. If nothing is done about this, the violence and the crime that is fueled by these gangs will continue to spread, and eventually nearly every single community in the United States will be affected by it.” [3]
Weight of Government Will Crush Us
As government gets bigger and bigger, it swallows up the individual and the individual’s rights. Another book I just began reading is by Stephen Leston called The Bible in World History. He explains that this type of problem stems from the fact that people are forever trying to unite as one body. They do this because they simply do not want to submit to God as rightful Ruler. Instead, they want to show God that they do not need Him; that they can handle the problems of this world with their own “morality” and do not need God’s law or inner morality.
