Over the weekend I was walking around Forest Lawn Memorial Park and stumbled upon the Court of Liberty. It was a pretty standard tribute to the Founding Fathers, but on one side of a rather lage mosaic was this quote that seems more true now than ever before :
So true. Our freedoms haven’t been taken away, they were given away by a populace that has been crippled by fear. With each “accountability moment” that has passed, the American people have agreed to allow the “gradual and silent encroachments” of our freedom to continue. With an election just one week away, here’s hoping that we can finally heed the words of the father of our Constitution and reclaim our liberty from powerful elites who see the Bill of Rights as little more than a technicality.
