A Sissy Nation?

Please view the video before reading any further. I viewed it and I thought, when and how did we become a nation of sissies?

College students are demanding safe spaces to protect them from speech they consider offensive. College professors afraid to confront a reporter at a protest call for "muscle" to stop them from videoing.  Apparently she needed to ensure the students were safe from freedom of the press. 

We have a president who draws a line in the sand but backs down when it is crossed. As a result, it isn't just me who has realized America has become a nation of sissies, the world sees it too.

Iran openly calls for the death of America and then captures our sailors and the U.S. Response is to thank them for releasing our wrongly captured men. After the capture, Iran adds insult to injury by airing a video mocking America by portraying our sailors, you guessed it, as sissies. 

A strong commander in chief would have respond in a strong manner defending his military and his country. People cry racist when people express their dislike of Obama, but the truth is we don't like him, not because he is black but because he is a wimp. Hard to respect a man decked out in mommy jeans throwing a 2 mph fast ball or who bows to other nations while demeaning his own. 

As I write this the answer to my question starts to appear like an answer asked of the Magic 8 Ball. America began to become sissies when the weak inherited positions of power and began neutering the strong and the strong were guilted into rolling over and letting it happen. 

The media and the schools began indoctrinating the children with ideas like "losing is fun" and it doesn't matter if you win you still deserve a participation trophy. Winning became a bad thing because not everyone can win. I once shocked a person who asked why I wasn't celebrating my 2nd place finish when I responded, "because I lost."

This utopia where losing is to be celebrated as much as winning and everyone is a "winner" for just participating might be good if we lived in a world where everyone shared the same idea but we don't. 

The world is filled with dangerous nations that want to kill Americans. This is part of the reason Trump is so popular.  He is not afraid to identify our enemies and to call them out. People believe he is a winner and can make America a winner again.

We need to revert back to being a nation that celebrates winners, strength and courage. We need to become a nation that doesn't need safe spaces because we can take care of ourselves. Sure, winning needs to be tempered with compassion and respect for others, especially the vulnerable but winning is good and losing, even coming in 2nd sucks.
