Changing The Guard is a fictional story about a modern day coup d etat of our present political leadership. Citizens being tired of over taxation and our leaders lining their pockets with money, while ignoring the wishes of the population that voted for them, had reached the point where it was time to get rid of them. Although the characters are fiction, many things came from our present day situations. Inspired by present day citizens of America and their frustration of actions by our elected officials, this is the time for this story.
