I have half a mind attempt to try to get people signed on to a movement to ban showings of GWTW in public places and limit access to the book to those over 18. After all it was written by a woman who was oppressed into painting her grandfathers in a positive light. Mammy stayed and considered Tara home. And then there was the scene when a freed slave attempted to rape Scarlett. We simply cannot have young people reading this stuff. I wonder how many would join a censorship movement when you framed the debate in group speak of the day? What we are living through right now is quite frightening.

You do know don’t you that there has been attempts to ban “Huckleberry Finn” because it uses the word “nigger” don’t you? Mark Twain’s masterpiece has been called the greatest American novel buy many critics. Now, that was before the current rash of PC madness!

Soon to be replaced by ‘Bless the World”. Then “Help the World”.

Oh, and notice that the muslim symbol resembles the pac-man that is going to gobble up all the others if we don’t put a stop to it.

The rest of the world has already bent a knee to the soft tyranny of PC.

I suppose they’re all having a Schadenfreude fest over this.

Problem is, whomever bought the domain just zoomed to the top of The Watch List.

Not sure that was terribly wise.

In a couple weeks, I will be in Gettysburg.

What happens *there* will tell me how far we will finally fall.

Civil War stuff is literally their entire income, year round.

I don’t know because I closed my account today after about 15 years. Let me know, please, if you find out.

Both the Gadsden flag or the 13 star bicentennial flag will suffice as an indication of an American patriot. The current flag has been co-opted by the left; Mom’s apple pie has been replaced with “gay marriage” and a foreign Muslim president.
