What's Right

What’s Right is letting people speak, be they a genius or absurd, and let people judge for themselves the content of the words, To let them turn those words to text and spread them out there, far and wide, the people will decide themselves which will live and which will die. What’s Right is letting folks believe in which Gods (or not) they choose, and not to interfere with them unless they come infringe on you. To make it clear this is the deal to imperialist faiths, drop the anger for this lifetime and we’ll all live in a safe place. What’s Right is protecting yourself, taking steps to ensure your life, so if any try to end you they can be met with gun and knife. To know it’s not just your life that you may have to defend, that if you are not vigilant then your freedoms soon will end. What’s Right is owning property, which you have worked for and have earned, to not take from any others, even when jealousy burns. To build a life by your own sweat, and appreciate the sacrifice, it’s time you’ve given up for this, so don’t let others treat it light. What’s Right is demanding justice, not the loud crowing of the mob, innocent until it’s proven, no soul’s freedom should be robbed because they are not popular, or in pubic favor they lack, all deserved to be judged upon nothing more than objective fact. What’s Right is chosing leaders to form up the government, not tolerating those who rule without fair election’s consent. To keep the politicians leashed and never trust them at all, without constraint even your side will soon lead us to a fall. What’s Right is being moral, and living by an honor code, without this too many people to dark places swiftly go. To never take control of folks, you have no right upon their lives, if you force people to ‘do good,’ then you’ve become an evil guy. What’s Right is cherishing family, our society’s building block, all who would tell you otherwise are just selling you a crock. Some think they can replace it, but no power ever will, to protect them a decent soul must even be prepared to kill. What’s Right has brought prosperity, such that our poor people are fat, what other kind of system has brought us results like that? What’s Right has made us blessed amongst all of mankind’s nations… What’s Left are just the crap ideas that destroy civilization.
