United Staes Flag folding script United States Flag Folding Script The script below is a popular version found on many websites, however, there are others. This version which is script #4, along with others, can be found at: US History .org The first fold of our flag is a symbol of life. The second fold is a symbol of our belief in the eternal life. The third fold is made in honor and remembrance of the veteran departing our ranks who gave a portion of life for the defense of our country to attain a peace throughout the world. The fourth fold represents our weaker nature, for as American citizens trusting in God, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in times of war for His divine guidance. The fifth fold is a tribute to our country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, "Our country, in dealing with other countries, may she always be right; but it is still our country, right or wrong." The sixth fold is for where our hearts lie. It is with our heart that we pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The seventh fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that we protect our country and our flag against all her enemies, whether they be found within or without the boundaries of our republic. The eighth fold is a tribute to the one who entered in to the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day, and to honor mother, for whom it flies on Mother's Day. The ninth fold is a tribute to womanhood; for it has been through their faith, love, loyalty and devotion that the character of the men and women who have made this country great have been molded. The tenth fold is a tribute to father, for he, too, has given his sons and daughters for the defense of our country since they were first born. The eleventh fold, in the eyes of a Hebrew citizen, represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon, and glorifies, in their eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The twelfth fold, in the eyes of a Christian citizen, represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in their eyes, God the Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost. When the flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost, reminding us of our national motto, "In God we Trust." (Wait for the Honor Guard or Flag Detail to inspect the flag--after the inspection, resume reading.) After the flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat, ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington and the sailors and marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States, preserving for us the rights, privileges, and freedoms we enjoy today.

The United States Constitution guarantees the right of its citizenry to keep and bear arms. One of the first acts of a totalitarian regime is to disarm its people. California's gun control laws only serve to disarm law-abiding citizens, not criminals. Lo siguiente es de la Plataforma del Partido Republicano de California EL DERECHO A PORTAR ARMAS La Constitución de los Estados Unidos garantiza el derecho de su ciudadanía a poseer y portar armas. Uno de los primeros actos de un régimen totalitario es desarmar a su pueblo. Las leyes de control de armas de California solo sirven para desarmar a los ciudadanos respetuosos de la ley, no a los delincuentes. Nos oponemos a cualquier otra legislación de control de armas y apoyamos el derecho de todos los ciudadanos de California a poseer y portar armas y municiones para cualquier propósito lícito. Pedimos una legislación estatal que establezca criterios razonables que permitan a los ciudadanos respetuosos de la ley portar armas ocultas. Apoyamos el derecho de las personas a usar la fuerza letal para proteger vidas y propiedades. También proponemos enmendar la constitución de California para reflejar todos estos derechos. Finalmente, pedimos la eliminación de los períodos de espera para comprar armas de fuego y, en su lugar, apoyamos la implementación completa de verificaciones instantáneas de antecedentes. Second Amendment California Rifle and Pistol Association article - CDC Hiding The Truth On Defensive Gun Use? California Rifle and Pistol Association - 2023 California Second Amendment Legislation “The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes…. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” – Thomas Jefferson Inland Empire Gun Owners

Affordable Housing Former Costa Mesa, CA mayor Jim Righeimer has rightly stated, "....There's no such thing as affordable housing. All there is is subsidized housing. It's really just a matter of who is going to subsidize it. The 2 x 4s and concrete still cost money." The quote above was taken from an article entitled "California's Proposal to Make Housing a Fundamental Human Right Moves Forward" by Jill McLaughlin May 2, 2023. The article is in response to Assembly Constitutional Amendment (ACA) 10 introduced March 26, 2023 by Assemblyman Matt Haney (D - San Francisco) Affordable Small Homes Small homes, sometimes also referred to as tiny homes, are part of the affordable housing discussion. Below are some examples of smaller homes.

Contacting Elected Officials When calling, emailing or sending a letter, be polite. It is possible to be firm and polite at the same time although, admittedly, many Democrat sponsored bills are so outrageous that staying calm takes concentrated effort. It is appropriate to contact both the author/s of the bill and your own legislator/s to voice your support for, or opposition to, proposed legislation. Calling: Always be brief and to the point. Some will answer, some will let it go to voice mail. It is always helpful to write out beforehand what you want to say. especially, where you are calling from and in regards to what. Example: I am calling from Yorkville, California to express strong opposition to H.R. 0000 because it imposes an undo burden on families. Email: Many will not accept an email from outside their district which can pose a problem when trying to contact the bill's author via email. Writing a letter: This is the most time consuming but also the most effective. It has been said that one letter is equal to one hundred phone calls. That doesn't mean that calls are not effective, rather, letters are even more effective. Sample Letter: 2/14/2021 (today's date) Attn: Congressman ???? (who are you writing to) Re: Opposition (Support of) to HR 0000 (which bill are you opposing or maybe supporting) Dear Congressman ????, (who are you writing to) I am writing to express my strong opposition (could be strong support for) to HR 0000. It is an unnecessary (necessary) piece of legislation which would place an undo hardship on (greatly help) families. Please vote no (yes) on HR 0000. (What is the bill number) Respectfully Submitted, Sign your name and include your contact information below John Smith (your name) 1234 Walnut Ave (street address) Yorkville, CA 95494 (city, state, zip)
