“There is no nation on earth powerful enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence” (Daniel Webster; 1782-1852).
Why didn’t someone do something? Those five words still haunt my thoughts today. Sometime ago, I sat speechless as I listened to a man recount his trip to a holocaust museum with his young daughter. As they walked by photos of the death camps, gas chambers, and countless bodies piled one upon another, his daughter silently contemplated the horrors that were unfolding before her eyes.
When the tour ended, they drove home without saying a word. The father wondered if she truly understood the significance of the event. Was she too young to view such depravity? Was she too fragile to cope with the truth of the holocaust? Would it make a negative impact on her life? Would it leave her fearful and wounded? Would she begin to doubt God?
His questions were answered nearly two hours later when his daughter finally spoke. She looked at her father and asked, “Daddy, why didn’t someone do something?”

Yeah that’s what the left are saying in defense of and as rationale for their various “resistance” movements.
They think their depravity is virtuous and Trump is a depraved Nazi.
Our country is being slowly exterminated by the Democrat party....I hope it is not too late. I’m 70 yrs old....won’t affect me too much...it’s my Grandkids and Great Grandkids I worry about!!!
They came for the 10 commandments monuments and nobody did anything.
They came for the unborn babies, and nobody did anything
They came for the confederacy statues, and nobody did anything
They came for the Jews, and nobody did anything
They came for the remaining statues, and nobody did anything
They came for the books, and nobody did anything
They came for my church, and nobody did anything
They came for my guns, and I stopped them with my life.
Tha Nazi’s were defeated. Real Americans did something.
The idiots of today are not even 1/2 of 1%. They are Soro’s paid for, rented goons purposefully stirring the pot, willfully ignorant as they act like neanderthals beating each other in the streets as they wait for a better victim to amble thru the death zone.
If President Trump puts AntiFa and BLM on the US list of International Terrorist, it will stop sooner rather than later and we may get to see a few folks tossed in the Federal pokey.
“Why didn’t someone do something? “.........
Dan Webster was right. It’s happening right before our eyes and out of control. We need some adults with brains, common sense and “take no prisoners” attitude to bring this floundering ship aright. I believe trump needs to do just that and start kicking asses and taking names. Stop the foolishness completely.
the “natives” are out of control!
Franklin D Roosevelt had been told of the Nazi Death camps and was urged to do something about them, like bombing the railroad tracks to the camps. He DECLINED reportedly because he didnt want people to think he was fighting for the jews. FDR, nice anti-Semite let millions of Jews die and did nothing. I wonder when the statues of one of the RATS favorite Presidents will come down?
Bingo.
We are doing something
Our fight is not over. The left has embedded many traitors. It takes some time to root them out
Well, considering I see that Trump’s approval ratings keep climbing, I think that people are waking up and onto what is going on.
I just wonder when we are going to stop being so nice and self-controlled and give them back exactly what they give us.
I know the arguments that it brings us down to their level, etc, but bullies don’t understand anything but brute force and getting back exactly what they dish out.
They see the restraint and civility and self-control we exercise as weakness and capitulation.
AntiFa and BLM should be on the United States list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
Both have more than met the qualifications. Arrest a couple hundred of each and throw them in jail. Repeat as needed.
I believe the guys like Trump is trying but like Reagan he can not do everything by himself.
Even if a State goes for a conservative president the same state may go liberal for a senator or congressman, more schooling than anytime in history and more dingbats.
