Criminals have every advantage on victims, they know the how, the where and the when, The victims has no before warning most of the time. It is almost like a ambush in a fire fight in Vietnam, they know the when, they know the how and where,you only know when it happens. The greatest thing about being in Vietnam when it happens is that you are armed,but never genuinely ready for the ambush to be released. The normal person is usely unarmed and has no idea that the crime is coming down and to what extent the criminal mind is willing to take it.

Why do we need a court system California has program that could release as many as 76,000 prisoners many very violent from prison? They have released 7000 pedophiles with year or less served. The blue states across the nation are making a mockery of the court systems in releasing violent criminals. Here we have on one hand the failure of the governemnt to protect us and on the other hand wants to take our self protection rights to own a weapon away. This is just example this is going on across the nation.

The greatest thing about a soldier is mercy, it isn’t always given, and many times in the middle of a firefight, it isn’t even accepted by either side. The chaos of the moment, with uncontrolled fear, makes all men prepared to kill and or be killed. Many soldiers, I believe, if looking back at the moment, would have loved to have saved a life or two, but it wasn’t possible. At least even in death of a enemy soldier their is some honor ,with criminals they have no honor.

Courage is when criminals are eliminated by men of the moment that stand even with the odds against them. The Soldiers are held to a much higher stander to be called heroes; all their actions are on the level of equal sides, making a killing and being killed a game that true courage is needed each time. All courage means someone willingly decided without concern for oneself or to protect others unwillingly or naïvely placed in harm’s way.

We must all stand for honor and truth, and protect the unborn, the weak, and the old. The criminals that would hurt or destory life should be never allowed to do twice, as a enemy soldier left alive may someday take your life. No easy answers only the right to live or die as men.

“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”( I wonder as I have grown older would I saddle up again?)
