Time is runnin out...

"Let's Roll"

If you have never listened to Neil Young's 911 tribute song, you need a good kick in the pants!

just click the link above.

In recent weeks I have realized that "We" the people had better wake up to the reality that our country is in serious trouble. So I am starting with me... Allow me to explain. I have lived in NSL for almost 7 years; in that time I have been the victim of only one crime. A compound miter saw was stolen from my back yard. Many times I have allowed myself to think- "this place is going down hill, and I want to move to a better place."

As I mentioned above; my eyes are now open and I know that this is my home (for now or forever) and I will need to stand my ground. Everyone I have talked to in my neighborhood has had at least one crime of theft committed against them.

The time has come America... "Lets Roll for Freedom, lets roll for love; we are going after Satan on the wings of a dove"

As Neil puts it in his song... You gotta turn on evil and when it tries to hide; you gotta go in after it, and never be denied!" time is running out...

OK that's all fun and poetic but how do we start?

  • Call your city council and get involved.
  • Take a walk at 2:00 AM and bring a big stick and a cell phone
  • start a neighborhood watch
  • teach your kids everything you can about how criminals behave (so they can report, not become criminals)
  • serve your fellow man
  • go on a ride along with a cop on patrol in your town.
  • Report all crimes
  • Obey the law yourself- I know that includes me. No more trips to Phantom Fireworks :)
I hope this helps people. We have a country of our own, lets keep it.

It is true. We all need to open our minds to think, open our eyes to see what we ourselves need to change and open our hearts to live and call home the place where we are right now.
