I’m convinced that if we would all just go ‘Full Frontal Communist’ in America that THIS time it will work!

*SNORT* LOL! I crack myself up!

I have no desire to live in harmony with people that vote for people that want to kill and/or enslave us all. It’s pretty simple, really.

The left has engaged in a war they will lose. The victor is always the side that fights to the last man standing.

The problem is the powerful, greedy, unethical City State weaponizing itself against the citizens that are sending trillions tax dollars to it.

You are right, which means belief in 10 Commandments and respect for/practicing traditional Judeo-Christian faiths was an essential element to reinforce the precept.

And within that love of neighbor:

Not to bear false witness;

Not to steal;

Not to covet thy neighbor’s goods.

Not only for “your own good” but “for the common good.”

The problem IS polarization--another word for persecution of fundamental Bible-believing Christians by our government as carried out constantly by the "progressive" elements.

“Grant the “right person” with the “right principles” unending power, democratically or not, and watch virtue spring forth. The government isn’t the problem, it’s the solution.”

Shapiro is normally pretty sharp. But I don’t know any conservatives who think this. At best, we think that giving the right person power might stop things from getting a lot worse and reverse some of the abuses of the state.

Sounds right to me.

“This creates a difference that can not be reconciled, negotiated or accommodated UNLESS one side gives in.”

...unless one side gives in ... or one side is wiped out. The c’est la vie, don’t tread on me believers are on the defensive here by nature. They need to recognize what is at stake and has to reconsider that the use of force is necessary to repel and survive with such a belief system. There is no expectation left in their quest to use force on others would adopt a “don’t tread on me” attitude to have their beliefs adopted by others with whom they live. They will only adopt such a belief system (temporarily) when they are being devastated.
