Message: <blockquote data-quote="JB Books" data-source="post: 2028400" data-attributes="member: 6889">What I'd like to see is us operate as a COMMUNITY to protect ourselves.  Obviously, not ALL of us are going to agree on ALL issues, but I think we ALL agree on a few issues.  It is that commonality of purpose which gives us strength.  At the breakfast this morning it was just absolutely awesome to see so many different people united by a common interest.  I submit that all of us, no matter our political stripe or religious (or lack of religious) creed can agree on the following:1).  We love our country.2).  We believe in our Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. 3).  We want a better life for ourselves and our loved ones. I'm certainly not so narcissistic or grandiose to think I have all the answers (well maybe I am j/k!), but I think if we all work together, we just might be able to make a positive difference in our state.  I believe this because I have seen the difference WE have made in each other's lives, big differences and small ones.  I believe this, because I think, with a few exceptions, that most members here are good, decent people who want to make a difference. Two recent examples; look at what  Powerman620 did with his prize money.  Right now, with runs on ammo and gun parts, he didn't think of himself, instead he took his son and helped needy people.  And on a personal note, BadgeBunny was so kind to lend me an ear when I was absolutely despondent over the loss of my friend, Redmax51.  I know she has done the same for many members here for various issues.  This sense of community can be something to sustain us and improve the quality of our lives.  We just have to work and maintain it.  I am proud to be here and thankful for the opportunity to be part of such a great group of people.</blockquote>
