Last weekend, I was in Nampa, Idaho to announce the Extreme Mustang
Makeover sponsored by the Mustang Heritage Foundation and The Bureau of Land Management
in partnership with The National Wild Horse and Burro Program. Basically, it's
a competition to see how well or "if" trainers can take a wild mustang and work
with it and "train" it for one hundred days and see which one is the best –WOW!
The first day included preliminary classes of handling and conditioning, a pattern
class, and a trail course. Then the next day, the top 10 horses advanced to a "freestyle"
finals showing off their skills with music, props, costumes... whatever! To say
the, least, some of these horses absolutely exceeded my expectations of versatility,
beauty and trainability; they were a "class act". To think that they were
running wild on public land a little less than 4 months ago and NOW
they are trained assets to the equine world...is amazing!....which started me thinking.
Why can't many of our younger generation be "trained and skilled" to be assets to
the human world? Look at the "mess" we have in Denver with the legalization of
smoking "pot". People, mostly under age 30, are flocking into this area to just
sit and smoke their lives away...yes, honestly....just sit and smoke and giggle
and do nothing! When some of these "No purpose in life" zombies are interviewed,
they have absolutely no goals, no desires, no motivation to
do ANYTHING, except sit in the park and get high! They need training!
They need 100 days of character molding that would help them to become assets
instead of being the first three letters of that word! We need someone to put them
in the "round pen" and start with the basics of what it takes to be a responsible
citizen of this great country, America! Just like the wild mustangs that "graduated"
from the "groundwork" to being ridden to win in competition, today's young people
need to be taught how to succeed and "git R Done"! I don't believe in "mamby pamby"
methods of "Dr. Spock-ish" raising and praising and everyone's a winner – NO
they're not! We are NOT all equal and we're not a band of "dumb
lead me anywhere sheep!" We are human beings that God blessed with talents to be
the best we can be, and "succeed" in doing our best for our families, our
communities and our Country! If a horse trainer can take a wild mustang and completely
"makeover" the net worth of that animal through training and love....why can't
WE do the same with the millennials that have consumed their lives
with failure? You say "We can't force them to change??" WHY NOT?
Cut off, STOP, and diminish any and all of the funds, the
welfare, anything that aides and abets living a life of dependency on my
checkbook and yours!! Tough love? You bet! Just like a horse in training.
They will stop "fighting the rope" and start coming TO you
to be trained and yes...loved! Sometimes ole' fashioned horse sense is still
the best!
If we do not conform with "progressive" thinking, if we do not abide by the
"new set of rules" set forth by progressives, they demean, destroy and denounce
US to oblivion. If, like Tony Dungy, former head coach of the
Indianapolis Colts, we do not believe in the gay lifestyle and live in accordance
with Biblical teachings and preachings, the "Left" will demonize you to obscurity.
So be it. I totally respect Tony Dungy and what he stands for and speaks out about.
His support of God, family and what's right and wrong is something
that we should "praise him for!" ...There's not many like him left,
not many that will stand for what God says instead of falling for
what man says – God Bless Tony Dungy!
Don't forget Dr-History.com! Exciting episodes of the old West!!
God Bless America!
Our Pledge

the greatest Country in the world...America!
