Thanks for the response.

I agree with you virtually word for word. We should have started fighting back sooner, and harder. We all saw the changes happening, and we probably talked about it and cursed it and tried to vote against it-—but hell, our government, schools, even churches have turned against us.

Even many of our churches are against us now.

You are right, of course, that we have to fight back. Fiercely, every day. I’m with you all the way.

Wouldn't it be fun if life weren't sometimes so serious?

I don't know how old you are. But I would guess we are somewhere in the same ballpark.

And we probably both remember when the world was perhaps serious, but it was safer, cleaner, happier, more decent and more sane.

It wasn't that long ago either. When the changes came, when the pillars fell, it happened very quickly, didn't it?

And virtually all the changes for the worse came from one source: the Left. Not certain colors, races, or men or women: but the Left, pure and simple.

The whining, griping, begging, cheating, stealing, lying, hating Left.

Now it seems we're all just trying to deal with the dust and confusion, to pick our way through the rubble, while they continue on waging war.

Thanks, Whitey.

I don’t enjoy using some of the gross terms and descriptions I use when it comes to this subject. I wish I didn’t have to. But I am long past the point of playing along with the co-opting of the language (”gay,” and so on).

.....”should have started out opposing the homo rights movement with everything in us, speaking plainly about the filth and sickness involved in their practices. It’s not pleasant, and in fact can be downright ugly, but that’s because the acts themselves are ugly.

Kids have grown up thinking that “love is love”. We need to pull the curtain away and expose the fact that homosexuals are not just benign, swishy shopping buddies and hair stylists.”””......

Work one hour in a trauma center and you see just where homosexuality leads and ultimately is. The filth and decadence of what they do to each other is anything but “love”.

Some excellent comments above!

Yes, the gov as it is today cannot be expected to stand up for moral absolutes/ natural law. The gov is larded and ontrolled by the dark side - leftism in all its various manifestations of deceit, destruction, hatred, violence.

And I agree that the road to get to the right kind of government envisioned by those who wrote the Constitution will be a rough one. For some reason I am 100% optimistic about the outcome, and that is not because I am a believe in end times eschatology.

IMHO the fall is near. Buckle up!

Legal measures will not stop the drift, but rather will increase the intensity and speed at which our societies degradation will occur.

Leftists used legal measure to destroy our country. Why legal measures should not be used to get it back means succumbing to the tsunami. Which you have done by saying that promotion of all manner of vice is good and that preventing such promotion by law will kill hundreds of millions of Americans and is evil. Where are the hundreds of milloins of dead Americans from the many decades - more than 150 years - when laws were in place forbidding such promotion?

We need to use every single tool in the box to get rid of leftist rot and moral rot is one of their main ways of control and desctruction.

I’m going to post this shortly. They’re using laws to beat us to death. Laws and internal agency edicts which for some reason every accepts as though they were legislation.

There was a time when our nation was a light to the world.....now we even export the darkness we’re in.....just evidences we are surely a nation with leaders who have no boundaries on the evil they will inflict on this nation and the world....and not blink doing so.

We knew this was coming...He said that it would....It’s just rather astounding the many who’ve climbed on board this “wide path”.

Thank you for implicitly conceding the argument.

Putting words in my mouth to make it appear that I said something I didn't is tacit admission you can't refute my arguments on the merits.

Okay, what were you saying, then?

Be clear with your position.
