Retiree who does not want to live under fascism. It does not have to be this way. Father and husband. Also, nature lover, traveler, reader who enjoys life despite it all.(photo accurately depicts me - but not now). Ok. I’ve been here awhile so NO DMs.
I loved the Little Rascals growing up. They made me so happy as a kid but their own lives turned out so sad

Though I learned the valuable lessons that we are NOT the country we thought we were, and that some of my neighbors are NOT decent people.
Oh and that "American Christian" is apparently an oxymoron.
