What The Confederate Stranger and A Small Town in Maine Can Teach Us About Human Decency

We can hope that CWII leaves a nation so destroyed no foreign power would want it.

A forlorn hope, at best. There are still an immense amount of resources here, and they would come, and conquer, for those alone...

Sorry, I don’t buy it. The Marxists are flat out evil, and anyone who sides with them is either evil as well, or profoundly stupid.

I can forgive the stupid, but only if they acknowledge their stupidity and get out of the way so smarter people can fix their mistakes. Until then, I’m lumping them in with the evil people they serve.

wardaddy, they will probably arrive at the same time the north-bashing contingent shows up.

Hope the soldier wasn’t baptist. The Southern Baptists have banned possession of the Confederate Battle Flag by their members.

Seen on a t-shirt this week:

If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong ...

[Kaslin]

Interesting.

[Kaslin]

Not any different than the bandits from the old west or the terrorists who cover their faces up with towels so they won't be recognized.

They are nothing but cowards

[Kaslin]

There is no doubt about it in my mind. They sure are.

Hardee har har.

See my homepage

I’m unaware of a north bashing contingent

[rlmorel]

LOL, so you have never seen any posts on FR that bash the North?

[Rusty0604]

I saw that on a bumper sticker, lol

He was still an American soldier. I recall walking through the Ft Leavenworth cemetery in 1984 on Memorial Day and looking at all the flags. Then I came upon four graves with Confederate flags. Being from Georgia, my first thought was they are so far from home. This Army Officer saluted them, thought about how brave they must have been and moved on, but as you can see, I have never forgotten those four men. God bless their memories.

And by the way, I am not your enemy here. I am on your side on this type of thing.

[chuckles]

I'm 65 yo now and can remember the day when doors were left unlocked, keys left in ignitions, everybody had a gun and nobody was shot. I can remember when we prayed in school, but the atheist just looked out the window and kept quiet. I can remember when you got your butt whipped if you disrespected the flag or a female. You opened the door for her and gave her your seat if they needed one.

It was a different world back then. Everyone felt like an American, ....everyone. Children were taught how to shoot and handle guns safely, even at school or the Boy Scouts, which were welcome back then. I was a member of the NRA shooting club at 10 yo and carried my gun to the abandoned ice house to shoot targets in competition. I still have my jacket full of expert and marksman patches. I've shown it to my daughter that is now 31. She has heard me speak about the US her whole life, yet it seems she can't even imagine a world that thought the way we did then. She has no idea what it was like as she has never had a day when she wasn't in this hellish nightmare we call "modern culture".

As we watch mass shootings today, the "modern culture" ping pongs around from gun control to terrorism, to mental illness, ect. We have so many regulations today that the Second Amendment almost means nothing anymore. As we see here, if the authorities wanted your gun, you are most likely on some obscure list gathered up over the decades. What we are told is if you own a Confederate flag, you are a risk to society. If you are a Christian, you are a danger to abortion clinics and gay bars. If you have a gun, you are liable to go mental some morning and shoot your family and neighbors. What they always seem to miss is it's not guns,...we need better people. The people I grew up with all had guns, yet shootings were rare. There was mental illness, but it was rare. Keeping your baby was a given, because killing it was unthinkable.

What has changed from then till now? God has been removed from society, especially schools. Just a couple of generations since God has been banned and men have gone insane. They can't even decide if they are men or women by looking in their pants. Even apes realize what they are at an early age. We have no respect for life because we have murdered 65 million babies and now are considering killing old people that are no longer productive. We have many people blind to the difference between a "god" that murders Jews, infidels, homosexuals, women, and even others of the same belief, and the real God that loved mankind enough to give His own Son for them.

The bottom line is there is no amount of laws and regulations that can tame an individual full of demons. Banning the Confederate flag won't change any hearts and it boggles the mind that anyone thinks it can. Our system of maximum freedom is based on a religious and moral people. Anarchy is by definition freedom without moral limits. America will never be "America" again unless God is honored and revered and is put first above the "freedom" people seem to think they are due. As we get farther from God, it harder and harder to even find Christians to agree what "Christian" even means. What made America exceptional for over 230 years was the blessing of God, not smart politicians. As we reject God and His wisdom as a nation, there is nothing left but Satan and chaos. Thinking we are somehow different than Israel over thousands of years is ludicrous. Idols and immorality reaps bad kings and destruction and slavery.

Reading Leviticus 18:22-30 pretty much covers what's coming and we follow like lemmings to our own destruction. It has nothing to do with more gun laws. 2 Chron 7:13-22 pretty much spells it out and reveals the answer to the problems. What we need is better people to get less regulation and oppressive laws and to live in the peace of God.

Well yes

Liberal New York Jew

Damn Yankee liberal

Union Yankee thug

Massachusetts do gooder or Minnesota naive Lutheran Yankee

Yes I do see Yankee bashing but for me it’s reactive to a smal group of race baiting south bashing Neo abolitionists

I cede your point

I try to acknowledge Yankees and good Jews even good Yankee wimmin here

In fact I adore the exceptions and will defend them like their were my own

I lived in Manhattan a long time

I fit right in at Bensonhurst or Bay Ridge

Not so much upper west side

There is a group of GOPe south haters here I’d need rope for a hundred years ago

A short rope

Reunions and reenactments started fairly quickly after the war ended. It was one of the things that healed the nation of its great wounds. There are not many places on this good earth that such would have happened. You can look all over the world and find places where old hatreds are still fanned after many hundreds of years.

It’s one of the things that makes me proud to be an American.

[Neoliberalnot]

It isn’t the GOP that has hatred for the South. The South has been vilified by liberals. Demrats, Progressives, Homowood for 50 years, and commie scum.

[wardaddy]

See my homepage....these are here on this forum

But yes

You are also correct

But after Dylan Root....the GOP folded like a cheap tent

Dubya....twang and all detested old south

[Neoliberalnot]

Just keep in mind, the South has been vilified more by Homowood than any other organization. Go back and look at how the South and the good people that live there are portrayed in movies. It is sickening, it makes me want to puke, and for the record, I don’t live nor am I from the South, but they are my fellow American Patriots.
