The continued violence on our southern border with Mexico shows the intensity and the strength of purpose the Mexican drug cartels have. They plan to win and it looks as though they will succeed. According to writer Deanna Spingola, the American public bears much of this responsibility. We have been apathetic, uninformed, and easily distracted by the media and the government officials who choose to keep the truth from getting to the surface. Her article, 'What Do We Do? Where Do We Go?' documents the many excuses and challenges that we face. The multitude of reasons that people use for failure to get involved are many....here are a few..."I do not have time...I don't know where to start...Things are so bad that nothing will help." Do any of these excuses sound familiar?

Please read Ms. Spingola's article carefully. What can you do to help? Remember.." It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from the government." --Thomas Paine from 'The Rights of Man' c. 1792.

WE MUST STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. It takes people with courage and boldness to speak out about the evils that befall our society. We must not let fear frustrate and stop our efforts....THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT OUR ENEMIES (within and without) PLAN ON.
