This Mom and Dad Are Uninformed Liberal Democrats

I ran into the same thing with my parents, over 40 years ago.

They are staunch liberal, left Democrats.

Since I was around 15 years old, very little of what my parents or their friends did with their political views ever made sense to me growing up.

I bought my first semi-automatic rifle the morning of my 18th birthday. A pre-ban Norinco AK under folder.

My parents thought it was an “assault rifle” and told me it was only used for killing people. Wouldn't be allowed in their house.

My Dad tried to take it away with physical force. I had to put him on the floor before he let go. Mom screaming all the while.

I called the police. The officer checked that I had bought the gun legally. They locked my Dad up for 24 hours for a domestic assault.

I moved out less than an hour later. Enlisted in the Army that day. Put myself through the last half of my senior year of high school. No party at graduation, no family there.

Shipped out two days after I got my diploma. Graduated Basic/AIT, Airborne School, RIP, Ranger School, saw combat on two separate continents and not once did my parents visit me.

Got out and got an associate's degree in Fire Science along with a Paramedic license. I ran over 4000 calls in my career. No parents at my retirement. All simply for what my parent's beliefs were, they blame me for. I never really cared. It was never my fault. I've had a cool life.

It didn't take a village to raise their child.

It took two mislead liberal left parents making the wrong choices based off bad information that spurred their kid to be a right conservative who successfully taught himself to do things for himself. I literally became their worst social nightmare.

Looks like you could be doing the same thing to your kid.
