Being an American means being accountable for your own conduct.
Being an American means taking care of your own family.
Being an American means your own priorities drive your charitable commitments, not the government's priorities.
Being an American means you are willing to go to war to protect America from people who hate America; It doesn't mean going to war to kill people American politicians or institutions hate.
Being an American means you stand up against tyrants, corruption, threats, immortality, and anyone or anything that attempts to harm, control, or take away your individual rights, freedoms, or liberties.
Being an American means you find honorable people among your community to represent your community in government and institutions at every level from your church or HOA or school board, to your city, county, state, and federal branches of government.
Being an American does not mean you should push your world view and personal beliefs onto others; it means you have full authority to defend your world view and personal beliefs against anyone who should push their agenda upon you.
We have a sickness in America that can only be cured if we all become engaged, active participants in our own lives, in our own communities, and in our own resolve to remember these truths and fully-commit to defending them.
If we do not do this, we are not Americans... We are subjects.
The Jackals are inside the gates. We either purge them or they will purge us.
Don't sit on the dry side of the boat and dismiss the water flooding into the other side. Weneed everyone either patching holes or bailing water.
We also need discernment in the appointment and election of a few moral and intellectually sound leaders -- to navigate through the storms we should always expect and embrace with a
calibrated compass -- to assure we remain on a heading that all Americans deserve and believe in; not a divisive one that our enemies influence to run our Republic asunder.

Tragic indeed... And critical for officer safety to examine how many times this officer had to fck with his optic under stress to compensate for the lighting conditions. Optics on defensive handguns are fking stupid, dangerous, and lethal distractions when milliseconds matter.

1. Assure you have a dedicated space for your hydroponic garden unit(s).
2. Assure the temperature range for that area is compatible with survivability of plants.
3. Definitely make sure whatever product you buy has an integrated light/pump timer/controller! You do not want a manual only system. Just fill up with water, plant seeds/pods, plug-in, walk away.
4. these work best with short-cycle leafy greens and herbs. You can start and grow peppers and tomatoes - but be realistic what those little growing cells can support. These work great for germinating and starting transplants however - I transplanted hundreds of pepper, lavender, tomato, herb, squash, and other seedlings from my Aerogarden with the high density cell grid upgrade.
5. Be realistic and honest with what you are trying to accomplish, and temper that with what you truly know you are capable of ...

As always, I have included the BEST Value-to-Use Case/applicability option, which means it is the best fit for the use or task being demanded of it, with cost being as low as possible but not so low that you are just wasting money on trash. This is the absolute best fit for the use - which sometimes is the cheapest, most expendable thing.
I have also included the absolute best Premium Quality option if you have the budget. Sometimes this is just the only option because anything less is a waste of money or inadequate. In cases where I add a Premium option, I will explain WHY it is premium over the best value-to-applicability option.
In cases where only one option is provided: That is the best option regardless of what else is allegedly better, cheaper, or brand recognized. If I only list one option, don't waste money getting a name brand alternative or waste twice as much money getting a cheaper useless alternative that will fail and result in needing to replace that with the suggested thing you should have got the ...
