We should cling to our guns and our religion

Dear editor:

We cling to our guns and religion. You bet! As long as there is one commie, one Nazi, one Marxist, one socialist, one Muslim Islamic fundamentalist terrorist, political leftist, one dictator, one autocrat or any other wanna be world ruler, with a Hitler or a Stalin, or a Mussolini, or a Herod, or a Genghis Khan, or other murderous dictator-type mentality we will cling to our weapons.

All you need to do is look at our history. In my 60 years of life, I've seen peoples of different countries slaughtered by armies of the local dictators. Also tribes of jungle folks slaughtered by one man's army.

All throughout history seems to be a history of people fighting to be free of one man's tyranny. If you are looking for a man to save you, forget it. He doesn't exist. There is not one many on this Earth, much less a system, that can solve the world's problems. Most men or women can barley take care of their own households, let alone a neighborhood, or a city, or a state, and we have men who think they can control a civilization.

I don't think so. The best we can do is take care of our own local area; not the whole world.

So yes! We cling to our guns and religion and will continue to do so as long as evil and treachery are here.
