9-11

[phil441]

Charlie, I was going to post a short story about my small flag at the entrance to our Cul-de-sac after 9-11-01, but your experience at a government building tells us much more about our country as it is now.

I fear that we're in trouble.

We are in trouble. I moved to Southern Illinois from Kalifornia. It is better here, at least in the southern half of the state. (God only knows what it is like in Kook Kounty, Blago-Land) Once you go into St Louis, or the Illinois side in the East Metro area, the liberal University mentality takes over (SIU-E and SIU-C)

As a History teacher, I draw parallels to the Roman Empire in the Third Century AD. 40% of the population of Rome "on the Dole", subcontracting defense to Barbarian tribes, etc. The list goes on and on....
