18. No! And YES!!!!! We do have to fight for the rest of our lives!

That is, if democracy matters, and we still strive to "form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity,"...then yes, we have to fight for the rest of our lives.

Really, we're not being asked for much. We're not being asked to establish a beach-head while under enemy fire. We're not being asked to take a fortified hill. We're not being asked to charge across a field under heavy artillery fire.

No...NOT YET....

All we are required to do in this "lifelong" fight, is organize, tell our truth to friends, family, neighbors, fellow parishioners and coworkers ; and then get out and vote in more numbers than the MAGAts!

If we fail to "fight" in this peaceful way, and think we can take even ONE SECOND OFF from making our voices and our votes heard, then the fight will require blood and sacrifice.

Yes! We will need to "fight for the rest of our lives".

Up to us if that fight is under peaceful circumstances, or not.

VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's much easier than learning how to field strip an M1 rifle.
