“They Married and gave in marriage,,,”

"Robert Frost, torn between a vision of the world ending in fire (the hot flame of violence, anger and greed) or ice (the cold burn of hatred), suggests that either would suffice to do the job."

I find that interesting in the light of Dante's depiction of Satan's fate.

In Dante's Inferno, Satan is portrayed as a giant demon, frozen mid-breast in ice at the center of Hell. Satan has three faces and a pair of bat-like wings affixed under each chin. As Satan beats his wings, he creates a cold wind that continues to freeze the ice surrounding him and the other sinners in the Ninth Circle.--Wikipedia

The “Z” symbol has become the new swastika and they even seem to have their own Hitler salute, except with a closed hand

You can tell a person’s age by what they write.
Jimmah cahtah was every bit as bad as biteme...
Economy was in the toilet, military was in terrible shape, but not only did we survive, 8 years of Reagan followed.
We thrived.

Those of us old enough to remember know what is to come.
As a nation, we will get through this, and come out stronger than ever.
