Patton continued quietly, “Sure, we want to go home. We want this war over with. The quickest way to get it over with is to go get the bastards who started it. The quicker they are whipped, the quicker we can go home.
Dims from a century and a half to two centuries ago, compared to today:
Dims Then: It's not a person. It's property. Dims Now: It's not a baby. It's a clump of cells.
Then: As the Christian abolitionist movement grew and some states became free states, the Dims made their pro-slavery position nationally enforcing (Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, Dredd Scott case of 1854). Today: As the pro-life movement grew, the Dims made their pro-abortion position nationally enforcing (Roe v Wade, Casey v Planned Parenthood)
Then: The abolitionist Republicans threatened to overturn the national slavery laws if they later win in 1860. A few Republicans (though not Lincoln) threatened to make abolition federal. Now: The pro-life Republicans won the Dobbs case and now states can be pro-life again. A few Republicans (though not Trump) are saying they want to ban abortion nationally.
Then: The Dims lost their minds over the idea that can't have slaves all over the nation. They threatened to secede. Today: The Dims are losing their minds that some states ban killing babies.
Then: After Lincoln and the Republicans won the 1860 election, then President-elect Lincoln toured neutral but slave-state Maryland to say that he won't force abolition nationally. Yet the Dims tried multiple times to kill him. Now: Trump is saying every time that he's asked that he's against a federal ban on abortion. Yet the Dims have tried multiple times to kill him.
Then: The Dims seceded anyway and started the civil war. Now: ?
” elections don’t work, and that war is the only solution. “
Soap box, ballot box, cartridge box.
A saying been around a long while.
