Windy, you know better than anyone on FR ever will what I think about pity for anyone that contributed to this fiasco by action or inaction. And this latest literal affront to God and all his Angels does nothing but reinforce it for me.

That said, At this point all we can do is hug a loved one and wait for the inevitable race war, terror strikes and sharped dressed men in snappy black suits with fashionably accessorized Rainbow armbands to come knocking.

Lesser evil was more important than greater good. Staying part of online cliques was more important than principle. Reality TV and football were more important than starving propaganda outlets of operating capital. Most of America is getting exactly what it asked for and it should. It sucks for those that stood strong. It sucks worse for the families and loved ones they strove to protect. But history shows that’s always the case.

When this all comes apart. Any day now at the rate of advance, some of us will remain to clean up the ashes. Such is the lesson of history. And those people will be the ones responsible for bringing back what the gutless wonders sacrificed in a fruitless effort to appease evil.

I say this semi sarcastically, semi ironically for the gamers I pinged. But it’s really true.

“War. War never changes.” Nor do it’s causes, it’s outcomes or the people ALWAYS responsible. Liberals in what ever form or political stripe the era creates them.

It must be pretty dreary in CA these days for someone not “One with the Borg”.

That’s one of the things I find true about these times; the social isolation. Even here in Texas, we avoid the “Urban/Metro” areas at all costs. As a white haired, old, (62) white man, I feel like a target everywhere I go. We avoid public gatherings and places and when we do venture out I find we don’t say much anymore. (by we I mean my wife and I). Its weird; but in the cities, the “creep” factor is off the charts. I sense that “the others” operate from certain presumptions about me/us because of who we are based upon our race and age. On a few occasions, at restaurants for example, I’ve noticed we are slow served, or not served at all.

The worst part however, is that I suspect its going to get a lot worse. Sad times indeed.

Good post - mirrors most of my thoughts/sentiments. Stay strong - the world that is coming will need some strength to lean on as Evil gains ground.

I’m also in Texas and like you, I’m pretty much keeping to myself anymore. My kids are all nearly grown and all but one are off to college. I don’t want to be around other people but this morning, I’m heading to church to worship with other Christians.

I have family in Texas.....
....it’s on my ‘safe place’ list

Without a doubt I know good Godly pastors will deal with this life changing ruling from the pulpit today..... God bless them and keep them safe.

Bump for when my battery is re-charged (literally).

But the short version: KEEP THE FAITH!

Many of you FReepers are young whippersnappers.

You have written what's in my mind, as well, windflier.

Especially:

I was just telling my wife today, that I wish we could just pick up and move to our rural dream home. Right now.

My husband and I both keep checking on the internet for places to retreat to - somewhere out in the country - like a cabin or small house. Somewhere with a smaller population. We can't afford it right now anyway, but now that we have a grandbaby, and another on the way, we too have both felt the need to find an escape. Somewhere where our family will be safe.

My dear, I AM 60 and I am sure as heck not ready to throw in the towel! I love my country. I won’t abandon it now. We need you and all good patriots. Hang in there friend; If not for our sakes, then for the sake of our children and grandchildren.

Well said, Windy.

My heart is very heavy also.

We see the whirlwind about to be reaped.

Another Freeper said it feels like 1859 in a 1938 world. I thought that to be an apt description of the times we live in today.

We can withstand the enemy outside—it is the enemy within that is the most dangerous.

We will soon be at odds with our own countrymen to a degree not seen in 150 years.

God bless.

R, I feel th3e same weight.

I was sitting in the VFW friday night and was lamenting “what have we been fighting for”?

Good men do the work to defend the Constitution and we get usurped from the inside by communist moles.

We see them, we warn people and we get laughed at.
Now it has become sinister, they are taking names and I am going dark, but I will never stop fighting,

No doubt in my mind, we are in the last ditch. As soon as the decision came on Friday, here's what I sent to my County Commissioners:

Now that the Supreme Court has struck down Tennessee state law regarding marriage, it is clear that "consent of the governed" is of no consequence to the "powers that be" in Washington, D.C..

I urge to you seriously consider resisting this revolutionary decision. Continue to follow the laws of Tennessee that existed yesterday.

They are assuming that the people will meekly submit to this outrageous assault on not only American liberty, but on thousands of years of human history.

Let's prove them wrong from the Frontier of Freedom.

REFUSE AND RESIST.

----------------------------------------------------

I sent this around eleven o'clock. By noon, local media was reporting the the County Clerk was issuing licenses for faux marriages..

But, I refuse to quit. It's the peaceful options here in the last ditch.

Here is the problem with the pink Mafia, they don’t want equal rights, they want SPECIAL rights and they intend to break the church and have the Gov rewrite the word.
I don’t care who does what and who does who until you start doing me.

Suggestion to the generic anyone, rather than to you personally, Windflier.
Don’t wait for the lottery, the cavalry, or the sweet bye-and-bye.
Retire now.
Cut back until you make less money and you won’t have to file a federal tax return. If every conservative did this the government would pay attention or collapse.
Yes you would be inconvenienced. You’d actually suffer. You’re suffering now, and the enemy is not.
In times that try men’s souls, patriots don’t behave like sheep. They fight. If you can’t bring yourself to fight, stop helping the wicked.
And for God’s sake take the kids out of public school.
You want to be free like our forefathers, start living like they lived.

Well said my FRiend!

My brother & I were having this exact conversation last night.

Ted Cruz is also the first candidate I’ve ever donated to and offered my support.
