I even question my own thoughts these days on some subjects but I know I am not a bad person, I just have different opinions to some. But then, if that makes someone think I'm a bad person then so be it, I don't really care. Modern society is trying to make me conform, if I do I am not being who I am. I won't be brainwashed into thinking some things are normal when I feel they are not.
It really does make you wonder where we will end up doesn't it. I hate to think what the future will be like.

Yes, I know the feeling. It feels as though all the good that various people have done to make this Country great has been undone in the past few years.

Benjamin Franklin never faced the monster that is attacking us today nor one that had established colonies that were actively attacking the society that he knew.
