@dakotameyer0317: HOPE IS NOT A PLAN We’re past pretending this kind of violence isn’t coming here or that it will never happen to us. Avoiding the conversation doesn’t make it less likely. It just delays it. As a parent, my second biggest fear is that someone might try to do harm to my kids. My biggest fear is worse… it’s my kids feeling helpless in that moment. Frozen. Waiting. Believing there’s nothing they can do. I’m not trying to give my kids perfect answers. Nothing ever goes perfectly. I’m not trying to scare them or turn them into something they’re not. What I wanted was to give them options. Tools. A way to think. Something to fall back on when thinking is hard. Action instead of inaction. Movement instead of freezing. I wrote more about what I did and how I did it on my Substack. If you’re a parent, this matters. Link in bio.
Turn the news off. Live your life man. Do it for your family. Let the fear go.

Might I recommend maximizing volume before upload ? between TikTok videos, your voice is 50% lower… your message is too important to be heard at half volume.

It’s scary that the rot in the Democrat party has led us to this. Defund police. Ostracizing public servants. Mass illegal immigration. Watching America fall due to their radicalization is scary. Teach them self defense, and proper escalation techniques.

It all starts with a corrupt government that allows this in the first place. When the government no longer has the interest of Americans first, then it has failed. So what do we have to do for us little ants to stand up and fight back? We outnumber and out gun them 1,000,000:1.
