"We have to have a “fight-back attitude” on a personal level. Somehow, we’ve lost that."

There's a "no sh*t" type comment for you...

We've lost that "edge" that allows a society to survive attacks from barbarians. We've become "too civilized", too willing to turn the other cheek.

It almost made me vomit to see one of Cho's victims Father sobbing on TV saying how he forgives Cho, how his daughter would have forgiven him, how we just need "healing"... Such a broken mindset. Such a desolate soul. FIGHT against evil. Rail against it. HATE it. It's okay for the GOOD guys to FIGHT back. It's MANDATORY in most cases. Being angry about things has its proper place. Denying it and stifling it is unhealthy.

And yeah... sometimes that means standing up to bad people and stopping them with violence. Not just common street trash, not just homicidal dirt bags like Cho, but even those bad actors in government.

Unless we get this figured out, the United States will go the way of Rome...

Yes. History does repeat itself, and for the reason we all know.

And I see you're a Lobo fan!

I agree. Hopefully, something stronger will raise from the ashes.

I was sickened when I heard today that there were 33 monuments placed on the VT drillfield to honor the victims.

INCLUDING ONE MONUMENT THAT STOOD FOR THE MURDERER CHO!
