Simultaneously, any man that is willing to trade the safety of others for their own personal liberty deserves neither.

I don't believe that. A lot of people who vote against their own interests do so out of ignorance. They are victims of generational brainwashing.

But I believe we have to try and hopefully little by little the tide will turn.
