"The muslims and all those that support them are heading towards a bad end. This country is like a big old sleepy wolf.... ya pick on it, ya poke it with a stick and then it wakes up and gnaws your neck off...if bombs start going off or mass homicide occurs then there will be a reckoning, and it ain't gonna be pretty"
Yep, Gonna happen! Just a matter of time!
It won't be pretty at all. The sheep will ask for more gun control and more strip searches when you want to get on an interstate or airplane. The criminal Congress will give them that and more. Not good at all. We will probably all be tagged with microchips for "security" reasons, but it will be seen that the chips are only good for collecting taxes and controlling your life.
I don't think the US is considered "most guilty" but we are held to a higher standard because of these words ....
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--
IMHO I think we should be held to that higher standard. It was hypocritical to found this country on these principles and let slavery continue to exist within it. That has left a very deep wound in this nation. We were better than most but not what we should have been.
Agreed.
Unfortunately, the alternative at the time was not to found the country on anti-slavery principles, it was to not found the country at all.
I would have to agree that this option was better!
