Over 200 years ago, a group of people with differing backgrounds, opinions, and religions gathered together to sign a Declaration of Independence for a new nation. They weren't afraid of being called names by anonymous people in cyberspace. They knew they were about to start a war that would cause the deaths of many of their countrymen. But they also knew it would be worth it. For Freedom. To gather and exchange ideas freely, either civilly or acrimoniously. We are the recipients of that freedom and look how we're acting. Shame on us. Past is past. We are on the same side, whether some of us want to admit it or not. Remember that.

"We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately."

The worst way to keep people together is to put them on a ping list without being asked.

We need to stick together until we can identify the deviants and bring them into line. :^)

Good point, but can you imagine the founders with all of their differences discussing whether or not to kill a disabled person.

Or imagine them discussing abortion, and whether one should, or should not have a right to life?

Looks like the argument about whether it was right, or wrong to own slaves was won by the wrong side.

Long Cut.... good morning. I do hope this morning you are overcome with an overpowering urge to come back.

The intensity of the left to implement their twisted agenda on us will not end. Leftists will "mutate" but keep attacking, like a virus. Perhaps LC will find another group or forum which recognizes this and will also stand up to the left. I wish him luck. Our views are not always singular, (thankfully) but for the most part, our understanding is very clear of the peril to our nation still posed by the left. But you never know, many who have left may yet show at the battle of Minas Tirath.
