“Unless you know what you are talking about, it’s best to support the good guys, even though we are struggling in tough territory. “
I wanted to expand on this point a little bit more. By your site handle I gather that you’re in VT?
I think many FReepers, including myself, are all for standing tough. The problem is, there are places where you can stand tough, and other places where you’re simply fighting a lost war. VT and MA and NY are states where that’s probably true. While I don’t think that’s true throughout the northeast, there are a few states where it’s simply over.
So do we stand idly by while our conservative brethren set themselves up to be the first “guests” when the leftists decide that their conservative minorities need to be sent off for re-education? Or do we encourage them, sometimes sharply, to get the heck out of dodge while they can?
For many of us, that is simply not possible. For unlike the masses everywhere, I am committed to caring for the elderly on both sides of my family. The cannot be moved. Therefore, I cannot be moved.
In the end, I am done fighting these battles here. I am not giving an opus, but I am simply logging out so that I have to think twice about posting.
I have no idea where you are or what you do. As you clearly do not care about me and mine, I care not about you or your family.
I am not in Vermont, I am in MA. We do what we can.
I am sick of the knee jerk, ignorant comments that appear on this site.
You and other freepers are for “standing tough.” And I guess that means that you stand for yourselves. If the people of Mass did not stand tough, YOU would still be a subject of the crown, Thank God, there were real men and women in this country who would gladly stand together at that time. Now, because of your ignorance and knee jerk stupidity, there is little doubt that we shall hang first.
Again, your narrow view of patriotism and conservatism, makes me pray to see your demise before my own.
