Guy Fawkes Day Do Celebrate

November 5, 2022 

A good friend told me about the UK festivities.
To explain it, in detail, it’s not my proclivity.

But so awesome to know, at least, Fawkes was a fighter.
As submission to bogus mandates here, and in the UK grows ever tighter!

King James, in the 1600’s was taking away more rights of Catholics.
Fawkes wanted to blow up Parliament, kill King James….
Alas, the gunpowder, stored  too long….as useless as a used match stick!

Our elected nincompoops use our freedom to forward, astronomical agendas.
Aligned with the idea to merrily change our children’s, God-given genders.

So celebrate with grand bonfires and grand fireworks this night!
Fawkes and his crew were executed, but at least, they tried to make wrong, 
right!

We need change in our country. Leaders that put people first, not their own greed for money and power. Bill

Bill, it’s those that have been in Congress long,long that cash in. And they are re elected despite crime, schools that are horrid, etc. They also are into defunding the police. Creeps and globalists…scaring people with climate change…a lie! CNN pushes it as does Google. Real scientists know better.. Merci.. Pangie Poor people do not have the money to run. Having cash does not make you or I evil. Those dopes in Congress should have limited terms.Pelosi, Schumer, etc, and more. But they do not! They have multiple homes and live cushy lives

Yes, Tom, do agree! In the USA…They are corrupt to the core and still get away with it.Ours are criminals running for re-lection tomorrow, majority are creeps who have zero interest in our citizens. They have been in Congress decades, bloated by money and blatent hypocrisy……by overtaxing us and now,Breaking into our homes? Criminals go free, good people go to jail in the USA…Christians, Patriots, are thought to be evil. We are headed for a Commust State. We already passed Socialism. Our country has no borders. Drugs areOKd. Hope the people won’t be dumb tomorrow and vote for people who love criminals, nice to see you, Tom Pangie

Greetings Prince. You are right,it was informative. Takes a patriot like you to see my point of view. I don’t favor oppressin in any country, I guess people don’t see the oppression here! Not their fault. As the press sleeps with oppressors, and spreads their lies like jam on hot toast? Sorry for responding in the wrong box! Pangie

"Fawkes and his crew were executed, but at least, they tried to make wrong, right!" Not the body, but where the soul is, is our immortality. Excellent, informative write.
