• Why didn’t you support the truck freedom convoy? You didn’t even mention it. I think that was way wrong.

First off…you are right…I didn’t mention it and I didn’t support it. And for the record the event was called “Take Back Our Border”.

Now, why didn’t I mention it or support it…that is a technical matter. See, I did a “cost/benefit” analysis and a “risk management” analysis on it…and the event came up short. Let me explain…

1. I couldn’t find an actual accurate mission statement for the intended purpose…that made any practical sense.
2. I couldn’t figure out who was actually behind it and funding it. You know, the folks behind the curtain.
3. As for the “cost/benefit”…it just didn’t show enough benefit for the cost, and potential cost, involved. The event was not going to change government policy at all.
4. As for the “risk management”…the probability of something going sideways was very high and the potential severity was high as well.

Remember Jan6th? It was an FBI operation filled with FBI operatives and hundreds of decent people are now in prison as felons. I thought that would be the low end of border event…the FBI would gather more intel and target more decent people. We will see how that plays out over the next year. I also thought it would only take a single “bubba” to do something stupid and federal law enforcement would have the perfect excuse to…ah, let’s just say take action…possibly terminal action.

Bottom line…it was just not a worthwhile event in my opinion. You may think differently and I understand that. But for me, in these times, I weigh everything carefully…very carefully. Yes, there will come a time for more involvement…but it is not yet. Now is the time for prayer.

Q & A Time…Ask me a question or send a message…
