I Am Deplorable

• I am deplorable because I believe people have a right to their own property, to use it, and abuse it as they see fit.
• I am deplorable because I believe the Constitution restrains the government, not individuals.
• I am deplorable because I believe when the Declaration said, “all men are created equal”, it means before God and before the law. 
• I am deplorable because I do not believe all cultures or all religions are of equal value.
• I am deplorable because I agree with the Apostle Paul who said, “If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat” (2 Thessalonians 3:10).
• I am deplorable because I believe I did build this.
• I am deplorable because I believe government is both necessary to some extent yet parasitic and, thus, must be carefully limited so as not to destroy the host.
• I am deplorable because I believe a 20 trillion dollar debt means we have not balanced the budget.
• I am deplorable because I believe law enforcement should have to obtain warrants to monitor any level of private communication and that property seizures should not occur without due process.
• I am deplorable because I believe the greatest threat to freedom is government.
• I am deplorable because I am a nationalist not a globalist.
• I am deplorable because I think refugees are mostly invaders and colonizers.
• I am deplorable because I think people like me have a right to our own cultures, identities, communities, and nations.
• I am deplorable because I believe in the rule of law.
• I am deplorable because I do not believe those living inside the Beltway are a law unto themselves.
• I am deplorable because I am tired of paying for the armed security of people who wish to disarm me.

I could go on and on.  I accept the fact that I am deplorable to people like Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, George Will, and Jeb Bush.  The truth is that it makes me smirk just a little, just as I do when Obama says that I’m angry because I’m stressed or calls me a racist or a homophobe or an islamophobe or accuses me of being “lazy”

I did more work before I was ten years old than Obama, Clinton or any of the rest did in their entire lives.  

 What do I ask for in return for all the work I have done throughout my life?

This only:  to be left alone with what I have and, most of all, with the God, family, and friends that I love.  

I know, it's deplorable.
