May God bless and protect you and your loved ones, and bring you home safe, soon.
HERE IS WHAT YOU ARE DYING FOR...
"Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." ~ John Adams
AND NOW A THANKSGIVING WISH FROM FEDERAL JUDGE ALVIN HOWARD MATZ.
A THANKSGIVING LETTER TO ALL AMERCIAN SOLDIERS FIGHTING OVERSEAS.
I am a soldier in the army of God. The Lord Jesus Christ is my Commanding officer.
The Holy Bible is my Code of Conduct. Faith, prayer, and the Word are my weapons
of warfare. I have been taught by the Holy Spirit, trained by experience, tried by
adversity and tested by fire.
I am a volunteer in this army and I am enlisted for eternity. I will either retire in
this army at the rapture or die in this army; but I will not get out, sell out, be talked
out, or pushed out. I am faithful, reliable, capable and dependable. If my God needs me, I am there. If He needs me in the Sunday school, to teach the children, work with the youth, help adults or just sit and learn, He can use me because I am there.
I am a soldier. I am not a baby. I do not need to be pampered, petted, primed up, pumped up, picked up or pepped up. I am a soldier. No one has to call me, remind me, write me, visit me, entice me, or lure me. I am a soldier. I am not a wimp. I am in place, saluting my King, obeying His orders, praising His name, and building His kingdom! No one has to send me flowers, gifts, food, cards, candy or give me handouts. I do not need to be cuddled, cradled, cared for, or catered to. I am committed. I cannot have my feelings hurt bad enough to turn me around. I cannot be discouraged enough to turn me aside. I cannot lose enough to cause me to quit.
When Jesus called me into this army, I had nothing. If I end up with nothing, I will still come out ahead. I will win. My God has and will continue to supply all of my needs. I am more than a conqueror. I will always triumph. I can do all things through His Spirit.
For when my Commander calls me from this battlefield, He will promote me to Captain and then allow me to rule with Him. I am a soldier in His army, and I'm marching, claiming victory. I will not give up. I will not run around. I am a soldier, marching heaven bound.

Many cops are ex-military and view the civilian motorists of America about like they viewed the hapless peasants of Iraq and Afghanistan, that is, with contempt, not as fellow citizens deserving of civility and respect. It is a possibly lethal mistake to do anything other than submit, instantly and obey! Or be ready to shoot first. But aim high.
