Going to do if called upon to stand up uh i actually have friends business owners even even people from my church saying hey we will financially support you if you choose to go and i’m looking at them saying do you see what’s going on 500 miles north of us here and you’re
Well i don’t know that i i want to put them in that position you know we have a my wife has a small business home-based business she’s a tutor out of our home um like honey you know we could really risk losing everything if i go
But on the other hand i’m really feeling called to go i never thought glenn that i would face what i call a founder’s moment but it very well may be my life my my fortune as small as it is and my sacred honor of being labeled an insurrectionist or a terrorist
I mean i’ve got to consider all of that and what what is it going to literally cost me to go down and say you know freedom and like your caller said yeah they’ve got a blueprint now they’ve got something that they can implement to counter what what the convoy would do so
Yeah i’m walking into this thing or literally driving into this thing right into the teeth of the thing knowing exactly what’s coming but i’m still feeling somewhat compelled to go and and take a stand i will tell you uh this is david we are all going to have to go through this um
Dilemma all of us um we you’re just one of the first to have to do it and i think this is a really good thing uh that you’re you’re going through uh i mean i’m really sorry whichever way you decide you will choose a side and everybody’s gonna have to and as
Dietrich bonhoeffer said not to stand is to stand you are making a commitment if you just stay silent and i’m not telling you which decision you should make everybody has to make that on their own um but i i think i i will pray for you
And i would ask our audience to to uh to pray for david at anybody like david which way are you leaning right now david going i i can’t look at this point in time in american history and shrink back and think someone else is going to do it i’ve i’ve been i really
Listen to the words of your intro song you know to stand up to hold the line it’s time to do something and glenn here’s the here’s the thing that really has me i’m wrestling with i’m a christian my wife and i are believers this isn’t uh we don’t have a let’s go
Brandon sign or a sticker or a flag or anything like that we have we literally do not make our politics known at all and we’re not doing this as a political statement this freedom that we’re fighting for is something that’s guaranteed in the constitution that gives freedom to every american
Citizen we don’t care if they’re gay straight black purple whatever it’s freedom we’re asking the government to give us back our freedom when all of this happened with covet glenn my first question was how do the american people get the power back that the government seized during all of this how do they
Get the power back to open their businesses how do they get the power back to freely associate how do they get the power back to go back out and live their lives they don’t so if we don’t stand now there’s no going backwards from here it’s only
Going to go forward so somebody’s got to stand and if at first glenn it was the first responders it was the nurses the doctors you know yeah the truckers we trucked all the time and just hauled freight but those were the people that were in front
And now look what they’re doing to them if they don’t get the shots well now if it’s the trucker’s turn to stand up plan i’ve got to stand i know i have to stand i can’t i’m just about ready to burst into tears i can’t sit here and watch this go by knowing
I’ve got three adult daughters 25 23 and 21 that are just starting their lives and saying ladies i’m sorry you’re gonna have to put up with whatever’s coming i can’t do that david maybe sorry man no no maybe three or four times in the history of this show and it’s always a pivot
Someone will call in and speak the words that so many are feeling and it’s never it’s never with bravado it’s always with deep reflection and sorrow that they speak those words you are that caller for this time hold on david because i want to give you a bit of something to chew on
Uh over the next few days and weeks and months david the the reason why uh i say there’s always there’s always a caller and there’s been maybe three in uh the last 20 years 22 years of my broadcast um that s speak from the heart and speak the truth
There are a lot of callers that have a lot of bravado and i will have even bravado from time to time but those are the things that led us to the declaration of independence and that’s good but that that is the summer soldier that is the summer soldier somebody who
Is there when it’s nice and warm and everything is great and we’re having these you know we think we’re on top of the world and yeah let’s let’s break away let’s break away from england and then the reality sets in and i think that’s what’s happened here
That’s what is happening at least in my house the reality of where and when we are is beginning to set in and now it’s not necessarily um there can be no hyperbole because you’re gonna have to do one or the other and now we’re all thinking okay well what does this mean
For me because it’s just up at the border and we’re seeing the same kinds of things being done with the january 6 investigation and we see how they are trying to go after people’s banks bank accounts when we went into the into the war it was in july
And we started fighting after the signing of the declaration of independence and we lost every single battle until december 25th that year every battle we lost we were in retreat on december 23rd thomas paine wrote these words these are the times the trim in souls the summer soldier in the sunshine
Patriot will in this crisis shrink from the service of their country but he who stands by it now deserves the love and thanks of men and women tyranny like hell is not easily conquered yet we have this consolation with us the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph
What we obtain too cheap we esteem too lightly it is dearness only that gives everything its value and heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods and it would be strange indeed if so celestial is of an article as freedom should not be highly rated
The government with an army to enforce her tyranny has declared that she has a right fill in the blank but that’s to bind us in all cases whatsoever and if being bound in that matter is not slavery then there is no such thing as slavery upon the earth read thomas payne and
Keep him with you david i think your heart is in the right place you sound like you are right with god and you have a peaceful uh a peaceful heart your feelings of trepidation are warranted but if god is with us who can stand against us
