Excellent!
Right away I thought of the scene in Sopranos, where Sunshine is quoting this to some hold-up men.
Sounds like President Trump and it makes me cry.
I thought Kipling was cancelled, because he isn’t PC enough.
Very good advice. It was on a birthday card mom and dad gave me in my early years. Now at 68 years I Ask Not For Whom The Bell Tolls. Still getting good advice.
Not to sound like a sycophant, but reading this again in today’s climate, it reminded me very much of President Trump.
I’ve read this several times over my life. Each time it struck me differently because of my circumstances.
While my father was an incredible, successful man who always took care of his family, he was not a risk taker.
This is the first time it felt like I knew of someone who fit it so completely.
Same here!
You know I love it when the news is bad
Why it feels so good to feel so sad?
I’m only happy when it rains
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs....

Then you’ve managed to successfully convince your muslim captors that you’re on their side.
Not here at FR. We don’t do PC.
“Sounds like President Trump and it makes me cry.”
Yes, especially this one...
“If you can bear to hear the truth youve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,”
The knaves are the MSM, the fools are the millions of useful idiots easily gaslighted.
DJT is a good sample of what people knew were good men. Elmer Kelton mentioned A Good Man To Ride The River With. We got one in the White House now. We just have to keep him there.
This is a SHOUT OUT to all the bitches of the world handing over their freedom to out trusty and dependable government for a little bit of safety.
#### the government at every level.
The power hungry DIE for crises like these. Even ones that are mostly man made.
OUTSTANDING post. HOORAY Rudyard Kipling. R.I.P., sir. love. Thanks very much, aquila48. It’s been years since I first read that...about 55 or so. My 8th grade middle school teacher Mrs.(English Composition) Rich(R.I.P.) really liked Rudyard Kipling. WOW. (it wasn’t drag queen story time) Watch out, kids.
Moose! Rocco! Help the judge find his wallet...
Wait
Thats’ Maxmillion
