Axios ping!
White Rose ping!
I’m ashamed to say that I never heard of the White Rose until a Freeper posted a movie recomendation a couple of years ago, and turned me on to one of the best foreign movies I have ever saw. A true 5-star movie.
If you haven’t seen Sophie Scholl-The Final Days, you have not seen one of the best movies of all time. It made my top 10 list of most captivating movies of all time, meaning it is one of those movies that stick with you long after you watch it. And makes you want to learn more about the real characters and the White Rose the German Nazi resistance movement, which I never heard of before this movie. Netflix has it.

Amazing and inspirational. We need to hear more about the White Rose Society, especially now.

I just ordered it based on your recommendation.
Sophie Scholl and her “co-conspirators” were executed by guillotine for some odd reason, rather than Hitler’s preferred method — firing squad.
Our priest read during Mass today, the letter from the bishops regarding this administration and their infringing upon our religious rights.
If I recall correctly, to heighten the horror, Sophie was forced to face the guillotine. It is said she showed no sign of fear.
Are you prepared?
Long overdue, I just hope not too late.

The time is coming when we must chose—what is right or what is easy. The students of the White Rose made the choice and faced death—they should be remembered. Today, things are not as bad, yet, but we need such commitment. It is time for a New White Rose to form—to distribute the truth—to place messages on the walls, To make a newsletter—that will tell the truth about Obama and the Muslims, the progressive socialists and what they are doing. Like the days of the Nazi tyranny—this new rose will be called names—racists—and worse—and may face prison. Would you Join?
I understand some of the chaplins did so anyway.

Hitler also had a fondness for stringing people up on meat hooks with piano wire. He also liked having people shoved into gas chambers.
“Would you join?’’<, Yes. Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.
