Gutfeld: Orlando’s doom. The most depressing article you will ever share. Share it anyway
Fox News.com ^ | June 22, 2016 | Greg Gutfeld

Posted on 06/22/2016 1:29:52 PM PDT by Kaslin

The immediate consequences from the Orlando terror attack are obvious: dozens dead and maimed – families changed forever.

The next layer of consequences, arriving soon, are not as obvious, but they are coming. Here they are:

We are getting a divorce. First, a poll shows that Americans are pretty much divided on their opinions about the attack. Most of the Democrats see it as a gun control issue. Most Republicans see it as a terror attack. And there seems to be no sign of compromise (why can’t it be mostly “terror” and a little “guns?” asks the therapist, Dr. Gutfeld)

This poll hints at an ongoing, disturbing change in this country – one that brings forth a series of even more problems – those of which I see as almost unsolvable. We quarrel about the quarrel. We cannot agree on the fight. And therefore we cannot begin to fight. Instead, we are like that proverbial snake that devours its own tail. Except, we think it’s sushi. But it’s blowfish. You get the idea. We’re dead.

>>The difference is the rats are sticking together, why can’t we?

Collectivists instinctively work as a collective. The only thing we have on our side is that their illusions will eventually be shattered in a head-on collision with reality.

The future offers us a choice of either "more fascism" or "more fascism".

Not disimilar to the differences between Hillary and Bernie in the demoCRAP primaries debates where each candidate offered the electorate free stuff and more free stuff.

Wrong! to quote Pogo ‘We have met the enemy and they is us’. Maybe not verbatim but close.

This is not new. Only 1/3 of the Patriots backed the Revolution. One-third fought with The Brits (civil war).

In 1812, the only thing that kept us from secession by the Northeastern states was AJ’s victory in New Orleans and the peace treaty. (another civil war).

You could say we had a civil war in the 60s.

We must unite as a people—only a great war or invasion by Martians will do the trick.

LOLOLOL.
Are you telling me that Gutfeld is shorter than Rivers?
I guess you’re right, but they’re both adolescent size.

In one of my college history classes, the professor said only ten percent of the colonists backed the Revolution. Eighty percent had a don't-care attitude and sat back. A minority of colonists did the actual fighting against the Brits. Another reason why we need to keep Muslims from infiltrating our nation, as it only takes ten percent to foment a rebellion while eighty percent sit on their butts doing very little.

I think it’s higher than 10%. Maybe he meant in NY. In the South, it was easily 1/3, of which the overwhelming number were Scots-Irish.

The come-to-Jesus moment will be one where the attack is not by a gun but by some other more distructive device.
