Journal Entry: 1-12-2012:
We need to believe that we have the right to secure, maintain and defend our house, family, neighborhood, state and nation against ill-wishers and interlopers of any kind. We belong here and that sense of ownership demands that things are kept safe, welcoming, quiet, secure, attractive, clean and orderly--in apple pie working order where one would not fear to raise a family or walk the streets.
We are to be individualistic and maverize but it is also our responsibility to keep the community and bigger political entities funtioning well. These dual requirements need not conflict as we juxtapose them both.
