April 12, 1861, Confederates of a South Carolina militia attacked Ft. Sumter kicking off the Civil War. On April 9, 1865, the main army of the Confederacy (Army of Northern Virginia), led by General Robert E. Lee, surrendered.
It’s almost silly to state the obvious, but “things” in America were really F’d up during the years preceding Ft. Sumter and the years following Appomattox highlighted by the assassination of Lincoln just a few days after Appomattox.
I would argue today that “things” are just as F’d up NOW in America as they were during the years preceding the Civil war, and during the war itself, and during the ten years or so following the Civil War.
My class was preparing to head to downtown Austin to see Kennedy when news of his assassination came over the schools PA system. Those of us around then remember how horrible the few days surrounding the assassination were. Have we reached the bottom yet?
“Have we reached the bottom yet?”
It doesn’t appear so. Now we can expect even more inflation, corruption, fraud, crime, invasion, and “trans” agendas for children.
It’s as though we can’t even see the bottom, let alone know if we’re there already.
