I have been out of the country for the past 7 months, pretty well cut off from everything. And upon returning home, I noticed that people are becoming more involved with politics (in a good way). The last couple of months has apparently opened a lot of eyes to the fact that if we don't make our voices heard and fights for the rights and values we hold dear, they are going to be taken away from us.
For example, my father, who was always conservative, but never really a gun nut like myself, asked me the other day what he needs to do to get his CFP. He joined the NRA as well, and he never joins anything. He also was telling me how it has become a common discussion, even in places such as his church, that citizens need to become more involved, much more than merely voting.
I see this as a very good sign, that people are starting to realize that we need to take back the reins of this nation. A small glimmer of hope at least.
