I WAS there 45 years ago. My first Presidential vote was for Ronald Reagan in 1980. I was stationed at Mtn. Home AFB in Idaho at the time, and I voted out that scumbag Frank Church from the Senate that same election.
I was there when so-called 'principled' conservatives put Bill Clinton in office by voting for H. Ross Perot, because they couldn't hold their nose and vote for H.W. Bush a second time. Then they turned around and did it again and voted for Perot instead of Bob Dole.
I've seen what 'principled' voting get you. It gets you squat, and puts into power those very people you can't stand. If you expect to get 100% of what you want every time, you'll end up getting ZERO.
I'm sorry if the battle is too hard for you. Go ahead and walk away, and leave the fighting to the rest of us Patriots.
45 years ago Villainous Noxious Nixon began the war on us. We fought literally - even to SCOTUS. We were served by Federal Marshals, sent to prison for the crime of fishing. We had locked loaded and manned .50 cal machine guns pointed at us by 19 year old Coast Guard kids. We were decried as “worse than child molesters” from Church pulpits, castigated in the local news papers, hounded by ABCNBCCBS, lied about and wished dead by many. Some of us were murdered, some of us lost wives, friends, family, children, sold our homes for pennies on the dollar.
Duplicitous Reagan screwed all of us natural resource harvesters - I lost a multi million dollar year job, a wife because of him. Others fared worse - they died or were killed. No love here.
You are evidently a self-styled puffy-chested guy, so please stop showing off. You sound ridiculous.
Like I said, you and many others here have no idea what is coming - if you did you would not be posting, but lurking. I’m too old and have long ago lost any fear of them or being killed by their minions.
Its young puffy-chested guys like you that they will come for first. You’ll never see them coming because you, like your ilk, will not listen to those who have fought them, but seek to put your us, your allies, down and then, stand alone on the heaps of our bodies, making a great target for them.
Its your turn yoyo; make the most of it. How hard has your “battle” been, sony? That trek to the voting booth got you winded?
