Yes, Holly - to provoke thought and to motivate action through fear and knowledge.

You know the analogy of the frog in boiling water, right? We're in the same kettle. People go along with small seemingly innocuous changes, and then before you know it, we're so far downstream before we start thinking, "How'd we ever get here"?

The scary thing is, people are arguing about rights (civil, to bear arms, free speech, healthcare, etc...) yet they are not watching what is happening. We are missing the forest for the trees. We are so distracted, that we are allowing the government to lead us down a road that we really don't want to go down without much objection.

They promise great and wondrous things, yet the methods being used are slowly taking away our liberty. Actually, we are giving it away. Once it's gone, it ain't coming back.

And it not just the Dems.....
