Be Ever Vigilant!
Minutemen ~ Bump!
The border of WEst Germany, specificly the 5-kilometer border security zone between the German Federal Republicand the East German Peoples Democratic Republic (DDR) and the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic (ÈSSR) was similkarly mined, on both sides, though those used on the other side of the Iron Killer were antipersonnel people-killers intended to keep their citizens from fleeing and those on the side where I worked were antitank mines meant to discourage enemy tank attacks. Though there was no guarantee that they would buy us enough time to call for additional assistance, the hostile forces they were meant to deter never did try any large-scalecrossing of the border they protected.
So I just wondered if you were equating those of us in the U.S. Army who served on that border and whose lives depended on those mines with those who "commit murder against unarmed men, women, and children", in my experience a much better description of the Mexican Police. I certainly appreciated their presence then, and I wish that American borders were as secure now- and if that necessatates the utilization of mines as a particularly effective stopgap and deterrent, so be it.
Thanks for posting this great article.
The above quote is true. There are still many people whose backyards this mess has not reached YET. When it does, they will respond, just like the fine American Minutemen AND women have done.
The left in this country has been hughly successful for the last forty years at silencing the silent majority in this country by accusing them of being racist, hatemongers, (pick your term), but their playbook is now 40 years old and it doesnt work anymore. We're taking our country back and we will NO longer be silent.
Most of Maine is owned by "a paper mill". Many people there lease land from timber owners on 99year leases etc.
"...minute people..." ?
I prefer "Vigil Auntie."
I was refering to the political correctness displayed in the use of "Minute People" to refer to the Minutemen. My preference is to not ever succumb to "pc" since it, imho, has caused so much damage. It is cultural marxism.
Uhhh... "Minute Persons"?
Ok. My point stands.
Minute people who celebrate diversity in partnership with stakeholders.
would that be "min-ut" or "my-noot?" If the latter, I suspect the dwarves and little people might fuss at you!
Please clarify. I want to understand.
I mean that which would provide the basis for performance-focused decision-making in all areas as well as in outreach programs by creating a mentor-rich environment cognizant of the need to excel in its mission and to effectively meet its obligations to stakeholders - a forum where minute persons can to use best practices to lead and manage human resources. Every minute person shall be respected for their own personhood, to value, celebrate, and thrive on the diversity of the backgrounds, abilities, and perspectives by recognition in appointments and participation in selection, management, and advisory committees designed to create a non-hostile and welcoming sociosphere that uses internal peer consciousness to create a sense of the moral unacceptability of any exclusionary practice.
You forgot the sarcasm button! LOL.
Sorry.
