Circle of History

By Tammy Derouin

I'm curious, how much does it take to destroy ourselves? The human species is the most developed, most intelligent of all the species on the planet, yet we are the only ones actively working to destroy ourselves.

At some point, usually in our advanced years, we once again rely on the help of others to care for some of our needs. Due to our natural independent mindset, there's always hope that assistance will be minimal.

Our history also takes on a circular pattern. We began as free individuals, screwed up royally, got kicked out of paradise and then became enslaved by the rule of man throughout most of our history. The Magna Carta began the process, the revolutionary thought, that man could live free. The brilliance and courage of our Founding Fathers, who dared to stand up to tyranny, drafted another revolutionary document, The Declaration of Independence. They fought and won independence for themselves and all future Americans. They then listed our God-given rights, put the people in charge of the government and charged the government with protecting the rights of the people. What a revolutionary event! Man walked out of darkness and took control of his destiny.

The founders were keenly aware of man's desire to control man so after listing some pretty basic rights in the First Amendment, they added the enforcer by way of the Second Amendment. Our U.S. Constitution is a document of liberty. It guarantees freedom and paved a path toward freedom for those who were still enslaved at the time of its creation.

Why are we allowing our freedoms to be placed on the chopping block? If you think it's for security, you are being duped.......
