A spring not lost

Recently, while shopping in a home improvement store, I commented to a young man who was loading a truck, "Looks like spring is gone, it's a hot one today." His response was, "yeah a spring lost to this virus."

I pondered his comment for awhile and realized he was wrong. Something that is lost is not found, for if it is found it was just misplaced. Our American liberties and freedom have been misplaced but not lost as some would hope. This COVID-19 has brought the power hungry to the surface.

As shutdowns and forced guarantees continue, the powerful get juiced by the adrenalin that is produced by unfettered control and soon their opinions and directives become as law. However, I am taking strength in that Americans are, to the chagrin of the elite, waking up to the master plan of control the power hungry are forcing on us in the name of safety.

Let it be known that I believe we have a virus that is deadly and that many will yet die, but never forget what a Democrat from the recent past said, "never let a crisis go to waste." To his believers this crisis must never be wasted.

That was the bad news, now here is the good news.

As Americans we can, if we will, reunite ourselves with our Constitution and put the heavy foot of liberty on the necks of the corrupt elite. Lord Acton said, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." Words we should remember as we stand united and declare, "We will obey lawful orders but we will not be forced into submission by out of control demigods.

The tenth amendment gives broad powers to the states but it does allow or advocate for the setting up of kingdoms.

So, remember the Constitution belongs to us and not to the federal government. For as you remember the Preamble begin, "We the People..."

For those who have forgotten consider the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for the redress of grievances."

A citizen of the great state of Georgia, as am I, needs only to obtain a copy of the State Constitution and find the Bill of Rights to include the provision of the Federal Bills of Rights and many delineated additinal freedoms.

In conclusion the Preamble to the Constitution of the State of Georgia; "To perpetuate the principles of free government, insure justice to all, preserve peace, promote the interest and happiness of the citizen and of the family, and transmit to posterity the enjoyment of liberty, we the people of Georgia, relying upon the protection and guidance of Almighty God, do ordain and establish this Constitution."
