When asked whether they’d flee or fight an invading force, far too many Millennials and Gen-Zers give the wrong answer.
As part of a recent survey of attitudes toward Russia’s execrable invasion of Ukraine, the polling firm Quinnipiac asked Americans whether they would stay and fight if the United States were invaded by Russia. The results make sobering — and often disgraceful — reading. Sixty-eight percent of Republicans said that they would “stay and fight,” with 25 percent indicating that they’d run away. Among independents, those numbers are 57–36. Among Democrats, they’re in negative territory, at 40–52. Among 50- to 64-year-old men and women, the stay/leave numbers are 66/28. Among 18- to 34-year-olds, they are 45/48. Or, to put it another way: A majority of the prime-aged Americans whom the United States would need were such a crisis to arise imagine that they would flee if that crisis ever came.
For shame.

Take a writing class.
That wasn’t the question.
I’d stay and fight as long as the people who ran away were never allowed to return.

Like I’ve told you before, you might be the funniest guy on Free Republic.
Yup. The weird thing is, they like to think they are one of us.
"The chair is against the wall"
Staying and fighting. The liberals will join the invaders and the (D)’s will flee.
If the invading force promised you free WiFi, lattes, skinny jeans and craft beer, would they even have to invade to get you to roll over?
***That’s what will happen in Taiwan. The SoyBoy Brigade will be the first to turn. The Kuomintang brigade will eventually welcome the invaders because “at least they speak Chinese and aren’t round-eyes”. The indigenous Taiwanese will never turn, will simply take it up the backside like a battered Ukranian housewife.
For all it’s “faults” I’m still on team Uncle Sam and always will be.
To the items on your list, everyone of them sounds wonderful.
We could have the same thing if we weren’t complacent and elected our representatives to stand with us and for us, instead of rolling over at the first sign of opposition. We continue to elect the same scumbags that stab us in the back, over and over, on every level not just the feds.
We had one that did that. He’s gone, for now.
Why is it that Conservatives dominated talk radio to the point that the Democrats wanted to rig the game so liberal shows, that no one listened to, would have equal time on the radio?
Why is it that there are no legitimate Conservative newspapers, magazines, or network TV shows….as we all know, barring one or two on that network it isn’t worth a spit - and if anyone includes Bartiromo as one of those two, she’s a member of the CFR, along with Mattis and all the rest so I’ll say she’s out too…?
May I introduce..Bryce Andrew Mitchell.

Mexico has a wall on THEIR southern border. Why can’t we have the same kind of wall?
He was better as Jaws in James Bond. I think he was the only antagonist of Bond who was thrown to his demise and yet survived. More than once.

Is very disappointing.
“Hiberniores Hibernis ipsis”
***”More Irish than the Irish themselves.” That reminds me of a page in Leon Uris’s book “Ireland, a Terrible Beauty”. He talks about the Irish of Mayo County, where Grace O’Malley the famous female Irish pirate was based. He said sumthin like “No Irish are more Irish than the O’Malleys of county Mayo. Also nearly unique among the Irish, with their tradition as seafarers.”
My daughter’s name is Grace O’Malley.
Putin is a man. The USA is a country.
Anyone running away needs to be let go. They would be a net drain on the effort anyway. In this world, the US is the last place on Earth. There is nowhere to run to.
How many have already joined them?
I would stay and fight with my bare hands because of the darn boating accident.
Thanks Kevmo
Your daughter has a very beautiful name.
Take care.
I would probably scoff at the news reports and call them propaganda....We’re witnessing that phenomena now.
