I understand your post, but may I ask exactly what I am ignorant of in American History? I am not trying to be disrespectful....I ask to gain information. I really thought I knew my history pretty well. Where do I lack?
Thank you.

Go back and watch “The Patriot” again, and pay attention to what the Indians did to the settlers at the behest of the French, and what Americans did to the Indians and the French when they caught them; and what it did to the souls of the participants.
Look up what happened in Kansas and Missouri during CWI when “irregulars” on both sides raided the other side. Look up what Sherman’s march to the sea actually did to Georgia -— men, women, and children starved.
We are now living in a “soft tyranny”, subject to more laws and regulations than a person can read in a lifetime. Liberals live in the fantasy world bubble where they can write laws to right any perceived wrong, ignore unintended consequences, and think themselves civilized by ignoring the fact that men with guns are there to enforce them.
When they cross the line into a hard tyranny, it is a legitimate strategy to make them feel unsafe as quickly as possible, to shock them with atrocities, and burst their bubble. If you don’t believe that works, look up how Ireland gained its independence.
When Jefferson said that the tree of liberty had to be refreshed with the blood of patriots and tyrants, he wasn’t kidding. Non-the-less, I will weep.
I did not mean any disrespect but I think that Americans have turned on Americans in the past in ways that are horrid and unthinkable or at least were until clinton/elrenio and obama were elected. Several references to these times and events appear in this thread already. Watch Mel Gibson in the PATRIOT and you will see that some of the fiercest American fighters did not raise a hand until their own families were brutally murdered in pol pot fashion.
The only thing that has kept America bonded together in harmony was a common vision and trust in those elected to oversee and protect that way of life... that no longer exists. Only a fool trusts anyone but GOD today and well... one America wants to become the soviet union and the other part wants our GOD gifted Freedoms to endure. We are no longer compatible and I see nothing on the horizon to stop what is coming... but prayer. I pray many times a day for this great republic. This is all that we have left to stop what most likely will be the end result.
Americans have been extremely evil and cruel to other Americans and it has happened since the early days of our existence. Our own government has interned citizens without due process... allowed slavery... they have killed maimed and murdered citizens... they have burned, raped and pillaged American citizens... just look at what we did to the American Indians. Now reread the thread and learn. Others have explained it to you and their efforts should be utilized.
