Food For Thought from Rae Richardson

Food For Thought:

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for being in the country illegally ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If you have to get your parents' permission to go on a field trip or take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If you have to show identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor, or check out a library book, but you don't have to show ID for the right to vote on who runs the government ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If the government wants to ban stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines with more than ten rounds, but gives 20 F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt ....
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If, in the largest city of the country, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not a 24-ounce soda because the government says a 24-ounce sugary drink might make you fat ....
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If an 80-year-old woman can be stripped searched by the TSA but a woman in a hi-jab is only subject to having her neck and head searched because of her religion ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If a seven year old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher's "cute," but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If hard work and success is rewarded with higher taxes and more government intrusion, while the not working is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid, subsidized housing, and free cell phones ...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If the government's plan for getting people back to work is to reward them with 99 weeks of unemployment checks with no requirement to prove they applied for it....
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

If being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you more "safe" according to the government...
Then you might live in a country run by idiots.

Makes one wonder who voted for the "idiots" who are ruining our great country

Our First Baptism

   
   We attended our first baptism in Lenexa, Kansas, 31 miles away.  Elder Kiene was asked to baptize two children he taught.  So, we took him there.  We met this Elder Everett who is from Nephi, Utah, and a cousin to Michael & Russell Bird, your high school friends.  Small World!  Please keep checking our blog where we will weekly or so post other pictures and info.  I put this here because you know the family.  I will post later this week on our blog.  By the way, it's linked to this blog, so just click on the right after scrolling down.  Thanks and love you all, Sister Atwood
