America First V2: Silver Shield’s Stand for American Pride
Why are there so many “famous” people in this country who consider the slogan on Chris’ newly released round, America First, deleterious? When in fact, it should be considered an expression of pride?

Are they ill-informed? Are they poorly educated? Are they delusional? Are they innately ignorant? Or are they simply stupid people? The answer? They are all of these things and more. Some are certifiably insane, others are viciously hateful. There are even some who are jealous of what previous generations of Americans have accomplished because they weren’t a productive part of the process.
Simply put, there is no rational explanation for the scurrilous and outlandish condemnation of America that is spewed by these vile people. Publicly criticizing America for unfounded and imaginary wrongs is not only unreasonable, it's bizarre! And, it says more about the instability of their minds than it does about anything else. Fifty years ago, they would be headed for the loony bin.
There are times when it appears that these people are beyond hope. Everything they say about America is out-of-touch and doesn’t align with reality. It’s as though they are so filled with irrational hatred for our country that there must be some subliminal reason for their crazy comments. They behave like deranged, hateful people who were abused as children and never got over it. Misplaced anger on steroids. They make no sense and they give the average Joe a huge headache.

And yes, although they are annoying, we should thank God we don’t have to live in the same house with them. It must be torturous! We should be grateful that we can simply change channels or shut off the TV, radio or internet when they show up. We can, most importantly, stop voting for them. That makes them go away permanently. For other “entertainers”, we can stop buying tickets to their shows, never buy another music album produced by them and don’t go to see their films. It’s as simple as that.
The power of the purse has had a long and successful history. When people stop buying certain products, they disappear from the market, just like the buggy whip. Most people don’t seem to grasp the fact that when they get totally fed-up with someone’s obnoxious and inappropriate comments, and choose to boycott their products, shows or songs, that they are not alone in their reaction. There are millions of other people who are pissed-off too and stop buying their stuff as well.
So, don’t hesitate. Send your annoyed response back to them in spades. Don’t buy another thing from them until they’ve completed their psychiatric evaluation and have been given a clean bill of health. Then they must publicly repent, and apologize to America, for being obnoxious, insulting idiots. But, don’t hold your breath. These people are career crack-pots supported by demented handlers. You might die waiting.
Just as President Ronald Reagan said in his farewell address in 1989
“I’ve spoken of the shining city all of my political life…in my mind, it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace.”
This is why Chris designed his new release, America First. It is also because good, productive, responsible, faithful and true Americans support “America First” philosophy. They know they are the happy beneficiaries of the hard work of Americans who came before them and they are, unlike the crazies, profoundly grateful.
