If it gets that bad, if we lose it, I can leave. I have a place to go.
When I got married, the priest told me he expected a war in 15 years. That would outfit in 2020
As did I.
More (im-)moral equivalency from an apparent cuckservative.
Wie Gehts Alex.
Thanks for the comment.
My GG-grandpa, an Abolitionist, sent his sons to fight against his brothers and cousins who were Confederate officers and enlisted.
“First at Bethel, Farthest to the Front at Gettysburg and Chickamauga, and Last at Appomattox”
1st North Carolina, 53rd North Carolina, 26th North Carolina, 53rd North Carolina, 18th Iowa, 30th Iowa...a lot more I don’t know about.
Confederate soldiers in my family: 190
Union soldiers in my family: 90
And that’s just the ones who share my last name. My mother’s family were pioneer Virginians and North Carolinans. And migrated to Indiana and Ohio, with similar histories.
They fought over a the status of a populace that had nothing to do with them - a principle.
Some things are always settled this way.
Only the dead have seen the end of War.
If the Left thinks they can use terrorism to impose a Communist rebellion, well then let’s just settle the issue.
It’s why we have a 2nd Amendment.
I hate this type of shit. Spends too much time directly attacking Trump and regurgitating Never Trump nonsense.
“So, all one has to do is kill at least two of the bad guys and they can never get even.”
Or the bad guys’ agents, because they won’t fight you themselves.

Danke der Nachfrage! (Thanks for inquiring!) Mittelmäßig! (Middling!)
Thank you for your measured response!
I admire your obvious interest in genealogy. My folks all came here after the Second War of Independence.
Any repeat (of 1861-65) would be infinitely worse than that.

I will never abandon my beloved country: If she goes down, I go down with her.

Excellent article, thanks for posting.
Good point. Identify those who instigated it then remove them from the equation so peace is possible at some point. As long as they have a voice it won’t be.
The point is using free speech rights can be a double edged sword. Use it wrong and it can cut their heads off. Just because someone can do something doesn’t mean they should.
I can drive my car into a tree at 100 mph. That doesn’t mean I should. I bet there are a lot of deranged leftists and some GOPe types that would disagree with me though.
When Trump leaves the scene the Deep state will be back in charge.

I’m afraid you’re right. Trump is basically a speed bump. God bless him.
This says it pretty well:
Since the 1960s, Americas leaders have been educated through an immersion in the culturally radical and postmodernist narratives that dominate the curricula of our best universities. It has become a primary goal of higher education to sensitize the future establishment to issues of race, gender, and class, and to raise awareness of global challenges such as climate change. Elite education is no longer designed to hand down a common cultural tradition and to serve as an intergenerational transmission belt for the American and Western heritage. In elite institutions, it is taught instead that America is a great obstacle to the empowerment of oppressed minorities and the central driver of global crises. A core teaching in the humanities and social sciences is that the Western heritage represents a monstrous oppression myth conjured up by dead European white men, which, of course, has its political expression in the identity politics of the Democratic Party.
Actually it’s a very good article. You should go back and read the whole thing. Heads up - you may not want to read the comments section but the article itself is very even handed. I like that.
Interesting, I got a total different take on the article. I thought the author did a great job of showing the issues on both sides and why we will NEVER be able to agree.
Lets have the war.
Well win.
Yeah, but digging graves for the 35 million dead is going to be a REAL chore. And if you don't. it becomes a public health problem right quick.
