Understanding Black Belt Patriotism
I accept been a fan of Chuck Norris for years. His aboriginal movies helped actuate me to abstraction aggressive arts, and now as an adviser myself, I account and adore the accomplishments he has achieved, and abnormally like how he has helped so abounding kids through his adolescence programs. It was an account to accommodated Chuck Norris, his wife, and the backward Howard Jackson a few years ago aback he was signing copies of “Against All Odds: My Story.”
I additionally like that Chuck Norris has close aesthetics and behavior and is not abashed to angle by them. His access into political annotation and acknowledging causes and candidates illustrates that he is not agreeable with sitting on the sidelines, but is added than accommodating to angle up and be counted and articulation an opinion. Some bodies criticize celebrities for acknowledging causes or candidates, but I don’t. I account bodies who angle up for what they accept in and booty ACTION. Behindhand if you accede or disagree with Norris, you accept to account the actuality that he is demography activity apropos problems he sees in America.
I’ve been attractive advanced to “Black Belt Patriotism: How to Reawaken America” anytime aback I abstruse it was advancing out. Being a atramentous belt and a patriot, I adulation the title. But added importantly, I account Chuck Norris and his views, not aloof because he is a adolescent aggressive artist, but because he is sincere, honest, and makes a lot of sense. I’ve been attractive advanced to his insights and suggestions on how to clean our country and ensure the following of the American Dream is accessible for everyone. The book was appear bygone and I larboard assignment and anon chock-full at the bookstore to aces up a copy.
I was not disappointed!
I spent the night account “Black Belt Patriotism” and was absolutely impressed. It was not what I anticipation it was activity to be. It had abundant added analysis than I expected. In fact, there are over thirty pages of notes, absolute added than three hundred references from the text. Norris did his homework!
Before I go any further, I’ll abode the albatross in the room. (pun intended) It is no abstruse that Norris is a conservative. On the awning of the book, he is declared as a aggressive arts master, actor, and political activist. This book avalanche in the political activist branch and the solutions that Norris provides are abiding in his Christian acceptance and acceptance in the Constitution and those Constitution Framers and founders of our abundant nation. If you allotment his bourgeois views, you are activity to adulation this book. You ability alike angle up and yell, “You acquaint ‘em Chuck!” If you are liberal, you are activity to disagree with abounding of the solutions Norris provides, and you ability alike be angered because he pulls no punches with his beliefs. If you are an independent, or abatement about in the middle, you will apparently apprentice a few things and appraise on others. Behindhand of which affected you abatement into, I accept the book has amount in pointing out the problems that Norris does. If you don’t accede with his bourgeois solutions, so be it. Figure out solutions that you back. But anticipate about the problems and assignment against solutions!
The aboriginal band of this book is, “I adulation America: consistently have, consistently will.” It is bright from account this argument that Norris absolutely does adulation America and the attempt it was founded upon. He has researched the history of our country and government abundant added than the boilerplate person, and goes so far as to accommodate in the Appendices; The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution of the United States, and The Ten Commandments. If you abstraction the added than three hundred references I mentioned earlier, after a agnosticism you will accept a bigger compassionate of our country and government, and a bigger compassionate of area Norris is advancing from. I acclaim his admittance of such material, rather than him aloof saying, “this is what I believe, so there.” He gives us the why abaft what he wrote. That still does not beggarly you accept to accede with him, but it will best absolutely apprenticeship you and accessible your eyes to the bourgeois angle in a altered light.
The aboriginal affiliate afresh goes on to lay out eight problems with America that Norris believes article charge be done about. Then, it the abutting eight capacity he goes into solutions to these problems. These problems he addresses are: 1. Norris believes we accept abandoned our roots and accept drifted from the attempt and behavior that our country was founded upon. 2. America’s debt. The dept by Both by the government and individuals is a above botheration and as Norris credibility out, we charge not absorb what we don’t have. 3. America has bootless to accomplish our nation’s borders. Norris shares some of the Founder’s recommendations apropos clearing as able-bodied as some of his own recommendations for the actionable clearing problem. 4. Norris believes the fourth above botheration is that America has absent its moral compass. This is apparently one of the best “religious” capacity because Chuck’s moral ambit is guided by his Faith. 5. The abutting botheration is that we accept attenuated animal life. Again, this affiliate is afflicted by his faith, but we charge additionally bethink that in his aboriginal movies, activity was not admired that abundant with the aerial anatomy counts of the 80s activity genre. But afresh Norris has afflicted aback afresh and is the aboriginal to accept it. What I like is that he does not try to change or adumbrate his past, and he aboveboard discusses that he fabricated mistakes in his accomplished and is abashed of some of what he has done. 6. The sixth botheration Norris takes on is what he claims is the crumbling of our children. Accouchement buck the burden of cultural adulteration and Norris sets out to advice assure our accouchement from predators as able-bodied as accommodate for them and advise them values. 7. The abutting botheration he sees is the dissolution of the family. This affiliate afresh focuses on a Christian archetypal for family, and Norris additionally makes a case for homeschooling. 8. The eighth botheration of America’s is apathy: physical, mental, and spiritual. In this affiliate Norris takes on the crumbling bloom and blubber of Americans and calls for advantageous active including alimental bistro and exercise. He additionally actual briefly adds that he believes bodies charge to augment themselves spiritually as well.
As I stated, if you allotment bourgeois behavior with Norris, you will adulation his solutions, if you don’t, you won’t acquisition this book about as enjoyable. However, behindhand of your beliefs, you should acquisition this book educational.
The book is added than educational, it is additionally motivational. The adulation for our country that Norris holds is clear, and he is optimistic that Americans can break the problems the country is facing. This is not a doom and anguish attending at troubles. This is a alarm for activity to accomplish our country better, to accomplish our country stronger. Norris wants all Americans to get involved. He closes the book by saying, “I’ve committed the blow of my activity to assure that the America of yesteryear becomes the America of tomorrow. My ambition is that you will now accompany me, and animate others to do the same.”
I awful acclaim this book to all Americans. You don’t accept to be a Chuck Norris fan like I am to accretion some admired insights from Chuck’s analysis into our country’s history and government. You don’t accept to allotment bourgeois ethics and ethics to still apprentice and be motivated by his optimistic appearance that we can abide to accomplish America abundant admitting the problems we are adverse as a country. You don’t alike accept to accede that these eight problems are the primary problems of the country, alike admitting we charge accept they are issues that charge to be addressed.
Chuck Norris did an absorbing job with this book. It was abundant added researched than I anticipation it would be, and it has encouraged me to do alike added apropos accepting involved. Read this book and become a Atramentous Belt Patriot!
