Memorial Day inspiration from the Liberty Rider #R4Liberty

Yesterday Michael Maresco began his trek across the U.S. on his bicycle. Along the way he will be meeting with and handing out literature to the local Sheriffs of America in an effort to hammer home the idea that they can make a difference fighting against the creeping fascism we are experiencing.

To symbolize this creeping fascism Michael is riding from the Statue of Liberty to Alcatraz. On this Memorial Day I’m remembering our fallen military individuals by being inspired by Michael’s “Ride For Honesty”. Ultimately both very different efforts are aimed at the same cause: The cause of freedom and defending the Constitution.

In fact, I feel Michael’s effort is more pure because it is untainted by the whims of power hungry politicians. I dream of a time when all wars are fought for the right reasons so that this holiday is fully untethered from the strands of regret. Bill Clinton said, “Abortions should be safe, legal, and rare.” Replace the word “abortions” with the word “wars” and you have a pretty good policy.

Check out Michael’s first day log and videos at The Ride For Honesty site: LibertyRider.com. Be inspired and maybe donate a bit of money to his effort.
