This does not have to happen, but unfortunately the corruption of DC has made it powerless to stop it. Probably was the same with Rome.
I think in the case of Rome it was much worse. The whole of Roman society was much further advanced in its crumbling. We are I believe at a tipping point. We either stop and take a different path or we head to what will eventually be revolution. What we are seeing right now in the US is very much like what led up to our first Revolution. The British leaders of the time were absolutely clueless of why the colonists would not submit to them and by the time they might have realized it it was too late. Right now there are many in both parties which includes the vast majority of the political class who just don’t get it. They don’t understand that we the people are sick and tired of the double standard where the law is disregarded and the citizen suffers.
Well, my slim hope before violent revolution is to note that Rome didn't have Rome as an example of what happens when the electorate becomes lazy. But I worry for sure.
I pray they keep this up and even make their stridency louder. Republican politicians need to start hammering home the fact that apparently laws only apply to us poor taxpayers, not those trying to rob us blind.
Did you notice the boy in the clip who could barely speak English but was bitching about Arizona anyway, WAS WEARING AN SEIU SHIRT? He’s a commie pig!
Amen...
>> Well, my slim hope before violent revolution
There will be no violent revolution. And neither will we lose our Country.
at that range, barely need to lead him...
I was thinking the same, but no clear field of fire.
Great post!
...”There will be no violent revolution. And neither will we lose our Country”...
How do you know? The pages of history point out the familiar patterns...
Details, people!!!
Oh, and make them take New York City with them.
Actually Rome did. The Etruscans.
When the Etruscans ruled 'italy' rome was a backwater nothing swamp and 'romans' were the barbarians. It was the Etruscans who then got fat and lazy, and the 'romans' learned from them -- ripped off their ideas and way of living (decadence). Pretty soon, bang, no more Etruscans and Rome was born.
And prior to 'Rome' their was the Greecean City States and its Democracy. Romans 'borrowed' from them too (Roman Senate), and even stole their gods. The Romans just renamed them, Zeus became Jupiter, etc.
So Rome did have an example, two of them -- they just forgot (Rome was 'too big to fail' /s).
A path we seem to be following now.
Note: By 'Rome' I mean the Western Roman Empire. Not the Eastern Roman Empire which became the Byzantine Empire and lasted until 1453.
The U.S. just got a few thousand more "Secure the border!" converts.
That Mosque will either explode and take NYC with it, or it'll be the home of every biological weapon the Jihadists can get their hands on. Who says it's only going to be used as a church? Who's going to be inspecting it?
NYC is signing it's death warrant. This building isn't being built for peace. It's being built for war.
There's been an awakening. It's no longer about democrat or republican. It's about huge government. The American people are learning the politicians, and the politicians around the world, are not our friends. Those in high places are losing their congregation.
