wait till they figure out they been pawned!

let them burn their communities. let them drive out business, commerce, jobs and opportunities.

let them follow the bitter black men, holder, obama, sharpton and the everso farrahkhan.
They’ll do their best to give us an Africa.

At some point the adults will rise up and straighten the delinquents out. Its just a little time, but America will rise up!

Is that a country song?

It was a Chuck Berry song that actually was a bigger hit by Johnny Rivers - Memphis

Why Memphis?

Why not hit a real target like San Fransisco or Los Vegas? Or a military base?

Isn’t Millersville TN the town in which the cop let the 3 muslims who said they had a dead body in the trunk drive off so as not to offend them?

Memphis is run by the corrupt incompetent Dem political machine so I’m struggling to understand why Islamists have this city as a target. I mean the Muslims could prolly gain power by running as Democrats. No need for blowing up bridges.

I feel like getting off my couch, heading to Memphis armed. To show them if they come how strong one American spirit can be. But, I would end up getting thrown in jail for life trying to protect the ungrateful. So I will instead pray for Memphis, and let God sort it out. He’s going to anyways.

One day, just one, I would like to read the news, and have not one article of evil, hate, or delusion. So sick of this world and what is happening before our very eyes. I feel physically sick, melancholic, and wishful.

Merry Christmas everyone. Remember, and never respond with Happy Holidays. Another lie shrouded in “tolerance”, and fake “love.”

What happens when only 1% or less remember Freedom, Liberty and Justice for all? I fear that day, I fear I will be alive. I say now is the time, now is the place, now is the time to seek America. Stop complying, stop voting, stand up and shout “NO MORE.” Do not pay your taxes. Proudly raise your American flag and say “I am an American, and this is no longer America.”

When they come to punish you, proudly say “I will never comply, I AM A FREE MAN, my ancestors bled and killed their own brothers for you to be a FREE MAN.” If they try to force it, defend yourself, make them pay for every inch. Failure will mean death with tears in your eyes knowing you did the long gone Great Men proud and greet them when you pass them by in paradise.

Does anyone have what it takes?

Disclaimer: Everything I say is hypothetical, and should not be taken seriously.......

It is because there are terrorists in Memphis, and it is easier there. As long as they kill Americans, the more the better. Children, women, men, Christians, other muslims, buddhists, black people, red people, yellow people, journalists, sympathizers, liberals, conservatives, or any other “label” you can apply to anyone. The only thing that matters is that person call themselves an American, and that the camera’s start filming.

If there is a community that should be under a microscope, infiltrated by Americans, and intelligence agencies in the US. Turn your eyes to Dearborn Michigan and look with your eyes, listen with your ears, and use your brain.

Yes, it is. And they never found the guys because they stopped looking for them. Who knows what was really in that trunk?

My dad shut down the bridge back in 1953. Our old car gave up the ghost half way over between Ark and Memphis. We spent several days in Memphis getting a new transmission.

It sends all the traffic to other bridges like the one at Caruthersville, MO.

Thank goodness I use 65 to travel up through Tennessee...

I now it sounds selfish, but the point is that the reason we are in this condition is that so many (even some who consider themselves conservative) are of the mind that anything's OK as long as it doesn't affect them personally. How many are really ready to sacrifice stuff they have in order to see a return to a constitutional representative republic?

It’s a pretty strategic location for crossing the Mississippi River in that location. I think it would cause a lot of disruption. At night the route from Little Rock to Memphis is wall to wall 18 wheelers.

Lots of Muslims dispersed strategically across the South. (Both kinds - converts and “real.”) Remember the Little Rock recruiting station shooter - originally from Memphis, his father runs the Blues City Tour Buses. (Don’t know if the father is Muslim, don’t really think so.) The shooter himself was radicalized at a mosque in Nashville, and also had some connection to a mosque in Columbus, OH. And don’t forget our friends at the Tyson plant in Shelbyville, TN.

I’ve always heard there’s a big terror training camp somewhere in Alabama, but that may just be rumor. If it’s true, though, I feel certain there is a FReeper who has the info on it.

It’s their way - spread out in heartland areas where we wouldn’t expect them to be.
