We saw the Supreme Court decide they knew better than God. We saw school districts giving accommodation to Islam while marginalizing Christianity. We saw public schools become indoctrination centers for the sexual revolution. We saw the Southern States endure a cultural cleansing to appease the race agitators.
And through it all, we have remained steadfast in our foxhole on the front lines of this war on traditional American values.
So here’s my list of stories that fired up all of you gun-toting, Bible clinging patriots – stories that sent liberals scampering to find their “safe spaces.”
