Sheer symbolism. The need for a mental line-in-the-sand, in which it’s confirmed for me that America has truly crossed over into evil, and is no longer a country capable or worthy of salvaging.
Admittedly, I could argue that such a line has already been crossed, considering what is going on in this country. The populace elected a Marxist leader twice, the rule of law is dead, the culture serves up depravity like Miley Cyrus and her foam-finger and an NFL that celebrates a homo recruit slobbering cake off his boytoy’s face.
This is not the America I pledged allegiance to. This is a grotesque mirror-universe America. An America that stands opposite every value I cherish.
I think the real question is whether we will take action — i.e. VOTE, write to Congress and make sure everyone knows what is going on — or not.
Things can still be reversed. I think that’s the point.
Well, just as long as you fatalists stay out of the way of the rest of us.
