Dear Readers, as of July 1, 2019, WEEBLY HAS CHANGED IT'S DAILY COUNTING OF VISITORS, SO THAT I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO GIVE YOU AN ACCURATE COUNT OF VISITORS.
AS OF OCTOBER 30, 2021, WE HAVE BEGUN OUR TWELTH YEAR OF PUBLISHING WITH WEEBLY. LET IT BE KNOWN: We believe America to be the greatest country on earth. We do not support the evil persons who are seeking to destroy this nation. We wholeheartedly support the police forces who strive to keep the peace throughout our land. We believe there are dozens of Congressional officials who, because of their greed and desire for dictatorial power, need to be kicked out of office. We believe the vast majority of Americans are a kind, charitable, hardworking, law abiding people. We believe the U.S. Constitution with its amendments offer more freedoms and liberty to its citizens than any other documents on earth. We believe in the rule of law and due process. We believe mob rule to be basically evil. We believe America with all its freedoms should be defended against all its enemies, foreign or domestic.
