Close your eyes and imagine holding someone’s scalp in your hands. I don’t mean cradling his skull as you thousand-yard-stare at his lifeless face. I mean a real scalp, Indian-style, of some enemy you just killed on the battlefield; somebody you hated and who hated you back.
You killed him, won the day, carved off the top of his skull, and now you’re standing over him victorious on the now-quiet field of battle, with a quiet breeze blowing through your hair. Your adrenaline is still pumping with that primal feeling of victory and the elation of having survived when others didn’t.
I’m not naive enough to think that less than 5 percent of those reading this are the only ones not cringing at that mental image. Amid our wealth and privilege, most Americans cannot even relate to that kind of violence, and they sure don’t want to fantasize about it. That whole thing feels barbaric, violent, and repugnant. Maybe you even wish now you hadn’t read it.
But maybe, for just a moment, would you consider it? No, not a real scalping, but a metaphorical one. We’ll come back to this in a minute.
Look, Guys, America Is Simply Going Down First, we all have to accept certain realities about where we are as a nation. Rains will come and go. The stock market will rise and fall. The sky is blue. Water is wet. And government in America will just never stop getting bigger. This is simply a fact of life.

I was born in 1949, and at 68, this isn’t the America I knew and loved.
We’ve already been invaded, and it continues unabated every day.
We need to get back control of academia, but the leftists/commies/socialists/marxists are so well entrenched, I don’t think it’s possible. Same for media etc.
The problem is restraint...it's hard to restrain the inner beast rather than giving in and releasing it.
And the beast in me wants to add about thirty scalps to my lodge pole, but I'm still restraining it.
And don't fool yourself into thinking that every man and woman doesn't have a beast inside just yearning to break free.
If the country splits up, we might have a chance. Give CA, NM, CO, AZ and TX ack to Mexico. Then there might be enough people left inThe remaining 45 states with Western values left to survive.
I’ll stare into your eyes and watch your life force diminish, and care not one bit.
Refusing to think leftists can prevail is not realistic. In warfare, one wants to defeat your enemy any way one can. This may mean a tactical retreat. The people of the Soviet Union did a tactical retreat and it took then 70 years to get back on the offensive and force their ‘reservation’ wall to fall.
I think long term and recognize that the leftists are entirely capable of marching all of us to that ‘reservation’. However, if (and I do mean if) that happens, that does not mean the war is over.

All I know is that I will die (1) as a free man and (2) by either God’s hands or my own.
When the economic house of cards collapses, it is all over for Versailles on the Potomac.
Salient point of this entire thread...Thank you for stating this crucial fact.
The parasites that we laughingly refer to as “members of congress” are not even discussing the debt any more....nobody is. The financial burden we will all have to share to support this invasion will be the end of the Republic. When the money is finally shut off, you’d be wise to have extra ammo.
Agreed. Presuming that the Left will ultimately prevail is abject defeatism—and a major step towards ultimately losing this struggle.
Honestly I believe the country is more likely to split up than it is to become a dictatorship.
Unfortunately, even if the country does split up, what We The People will likely be faced with is a choice between a Left-wing dictatorship or a Right-wing dictatorship. In that case, my choice will be "none of the above" and I will fight on.
Americans aren't as easy to control as bureaucrats would like to think.
Correct. But, unfortunately, once again, Americans are probably much easier to control than they themselves would like to think...
>>-Rudyard Kipling<<
That is one of my two favorite Kipling poems. The other is entitled “The Stranger”.
>>The 1965 Immigration Bill was the wound that killed us.
Take away the immigrants & their spawn from that bill and the Democrats would be a small regional party.<<
It surprises me how few people are aware of that, and therefore it is seldom mentioned, even here on FR. And of course, the primary motivator of that horrible legislation was non other than The Swimmer, Sen. Teddy Kennedy.
I don’t see any viable alternative to a mass invasion of Washington, D.C. by millions of people arriving day after day who are willing to literally lie down in the streets to close down the government until Congress enacts legislation to shut down the Leftist madness that is attempting to destroy our beloved country.
