    I was in Basic training when one morning my Drill Sergeant walked in and said " Privates i dont know if any of you know who this is or if any of you care but Jonny Cash passed away last night." Most of the platoon paid no mind however i was crushed! Jonny Cash was truly one of the greatest and there will never be another like him! Hearing him sing the Battle Hymn of the Republic always brings a tear to my eye.

      I was deployed to Ecuador when I heard the news. Made sure I went out and had a few drinks for him and made sure the bar owner only played Johnny that night. I had just landed in Turkey when the enroute guys had told me Waylon had died. Funny how the great music you grew up with means so much to you and others around have no clue how great they were.

      Johnny Cash originally wanted to be a gospel singer. There were too many gospel singers at the time for the record companies to want him to do gospel albums so he made his fame on other stuff but deep down inside he'd have chosen to be a moderately well known gospel singer over being a superstar.

He was in it the entire length of the war and somehow lived through it. He was in the infantry. He lived through 16 major battles and numerous skirmishes. He was a sharp shooter for General Sherman.

They set up the chaz/chop claiming it’s a actual free state without any borders/cops/racism while in the meantime they barricade the streets so certain people can’t enter, have there own armed police force, mob rule which leads to innocents being beat, and dictator that propped himself up. Anyone really think he would have given up power if that thing started gaining large amounts of land and power? No he would have become just another communist dictator, to argue against that is just plain dumb. They protest and riot against “fascism” while limiting speech, canceling people who don’t prescribe to there idiotic communist/anarchist agenda, call anyone who disagrees a racist/fascist/sexist blah blah blah. This kind of shit is what leads to genocide, it doesn’t matter what you believe or what you have done if you deny them power or the moral high ground they cancel you, which will develop into street executions and gulags if there influence grows and the democrat party keeps aiding with them and enabling there toxic behavior. They are the real fascists

    Say what you like about Johnny Cash being a Christian, at least he had the 'bowels' to sing such Hymns and Gospel songs about Jesus Christ. He did this against the wishes of his producers and publicists, who thought it would harm his popularity. Despite those objections, he did it anyway, even putting out Gospel Albums as did Elvis. When I look on RUclips and see a lot of so called popular singers, such as Justin Bieber or Jay Z who claim to be Christians. I fail to see any fruit of this here. Johnny Cash was by no means a perfect man, but who is but God.

      This was before they went out on their own. If you haven't done so find a video or recording of their Tribute to Johnny in their song "We Got Paid By Cash".

    Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
    He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored
    He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword
    His truth is marching on, His truth is marching
    Glory, glory, Hallelujah! Glory, glory, Hallelujah!
    Glory, glory, Hallelujah! His truth is marching on
    I have seen Him in the watch fires of a hundred circling camps
    They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps
    I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps
    His day is marching on
    Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
    In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea
    With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me
    As He died to make men holy, let us live to make men free
    While God is marching on
    Glory, glory, Hallelujah! Glory, glory, Hallelujah!
    Glory, glory, Hallelujah! His truth is marching on!
    His truth is marching on! And on and on and on and on and on
