Bull Moose yields the right of way to a Bull Mammoth (Wooly) or a Bull
Mastadon. There are TWO main points of view on how they all got to the
American Continent :)

A VISITOR FROM THE PAST
I had a dream the other night, I didn't understand.
A man was walking through the mist, with flintlock in his hand.
His clothes were torn and dirty, as he stood there by my bed.
He took off his three-cornered hat, and speaking low, he said:
"We fought a revolution, to secure our liberty.
We wrote the Constitution, as a shield from tyranny.
For future generations, this legacy we gave.
To the land of the free and the home of the brave."
"The freedom we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep.
But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep.
Your freedom gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave.
In the land of the free and home of the brave."
"You buy permits to travel, and permits to own a gun,
Permits to start a business, or to build a place for one.
On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent.
Although you have no voice in choosing, how the money's spent."
"Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate.
Your Christian values can't be taught, according to the state.
You read about the current news, in a regulated press.
You pay a tax you do not owe, to please those who assess."
"You've given your control, to those who do you harm,
So they can padlock churches, and steal the family farm,
And keep our country deep in debt and put men of God in jail,
Harass your fellow countrymen, while corrupted courts prevail."
"Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oath they've sworn.
Your daughters visit doctors, so their children won't be born.
Your leaders ship artillery and guns to foreign shores,
And send your sons to slaughter, fighting other people's wars."
"As I awoke he vanished, in the mist from whence he came.
His words were true, we are not free, we have ourselves to blame.
For even now as tyrants, trample each God-Given Right.
We only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand the sight."
Adapted from a poem by Thelen Paulk (reprinted by permission)
Bravery and nobility are traits that only exist when a nation is sensitive to
morality and the conscience of its citizens. When a nation is no longer
sensitive to the
conscience of its citizens, but, instead, dispossesses them or even attacks
them with weapons of war, one can know that nation's heart of bravery and
nobility has turned to a heart of despotism. It may profess to be a lamb and
a peace lover but, in reality, it speaks as a dragon. It may paint its
weapons of war white and call its
armies "peace keepers" but it is still a dragon.
It may very well be that the heart of a dragon is what this nation wants, but
it also should be understood, that heart will always lead a nation to its
end. One cannot
oppress without being oppressed. Eventually, the nation turns against itself
and national ruin is the result.
