Songs of Brave Men

If might is right
     weakness is wrong
   That's not how it goes
     in modern folk songs
 
   Songs of brave men
     filled the air yesteryear
   Today sing not of heroes
     'Tis they whom we jeer

Oh, this is painfully true! Gershon. Wimps are awarded. Men who are good, follow laws, and Cory Ute’s to this country are garbage?? Thieves are heroes now, All the news lauds cheaters. As my. Mother, of blessed memory would say,,, THEY HAVE NO SHAME. PANGIE XX

No one wimpier than Ibram Kendi, methinks. And he certainly has no shame about branding everyone as a racist -- except himself, of course. What a loser!!!!
