After being told all these years what to say, what to read, what to eat, what to drive, what to buy and what to over-tolerate, I thought I would take a moment and throw back the liberals Celebrate Diversity! mantra by sharing my version of this idiocy.

I celebrate diversity with a…

Diversity of firearms! I own a mix of Rugers, Glocks, Winchesters, and Marlins – what’s more diverse than that? Plus, I have a diverse amount of calibers for these diverse guns.

Diversity of animals! I love a diversity of animals even when they are placed on a hot grill, cooked, basted and served with a diversity of fine beers. I love bison, deer, elk, turkey, duck, chicken and beef.

Diversity of camo colors for my hunting and work clothes! I love my tiger stripe, multi-cam, olive drab green, black, dark navy blue, kaki and tan colors.

Diversity of music! I love to jam to Metallica, Mozart, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Ted Nugent, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, Black Sabbath, Def Leppard… I love, love music with talent!

Diversity of viewpoints! I read the books of the founding fathers, Karl Marx, Glenn Beck, Saul Alinsky, Martin Luther King Jr., Ayn Rand, Ron Paul, Tiqqun, President Ronald Reagan and many other historians.

So, you see folks… I have been practicing this mantra for years and it has worked for me without government intervention, pubilc school nagging or corperate intrusion. I don’t need your help at all… I learned a very long time ago that variety is the spice of life!
