The stillness in the air after the attack kept me on guard for days, and the safety was off. I was ready for anything. When I was growing up there was a program called "Schoolhouse Rock" and one of the songs (With a cartoon with it) was:"Take your Rifle, Take your Gun, and report to General Washington".( It showed what looked like a Mother sending her family off to war) I was long out of the Guard unit I was with, and wondered "Who was my General Washington" if god forbid fighting broke out in our streets. I was ready both physically and mentally to do what ever it would have taken to protect this country WITHOUT even giving a dam about my own safety. I make no bones about it, I love this country and would give my life for her.<br /><br /><br /> Others where not ready. Some people where so out of shape they could not save themselves and even stopped others from getting to safety. I still can't believe that some people can't even walk fast because they chose to eat themselves so dam fat they can't move!<br /><br /> Fight or Flight is in our Genes. It is there for a reason. You owe it to yourself and your family to be at least "fit shape". <br /><br />If you can't get your family to safety, then who will?<br /><br /><br />Gob bless America and may he always have our military's back, and may he give comfort to the families of who are serving this country and in harms way, and to those who gave it all.<br /><br /><br />Max<br />NyMMAnews.com<br />MadMaxMMA on twitterUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01861334679929980570noreply@blogger.com
