Brushing Off The Cobwebs and Reflecting on Franklin

It appears that I've neglected this site for some time.

Many of the writers of blogs I followed started spending more time on social media sites like Facebutt, so I did too.

Since Parkland, though, I've found that I can't tolerate the noise, so I'm back here, and on MeWe, for a while until things calm down a bit.

***

Ben Franklin is credited with something to the effect of "Those who will trade liberty for security deserve neither." 

Let me state for the record: 

You are free to trade liberty for security for yourself and those in your care. 

I do not grant you the authority to make that trade on my behalf, for me, or for those in my care.

Clear enough?
