The other day I was watching the movie Argo. The setting is Iran post the overthrow of the Shaw. People not loyal to the new regime were being rounded up and shot. Images of dead bodies hanging in the streets. It occurred to me that in most of history this is the norm when power is transferred from one group to another. The US system of elections and peaceful transfer of power is the exception. It appears that one side no longer wishes to play by those rules which will require a return to the other standard.

this is a powerful statement. We as a country need to choose whether to keep our civilized democratic republic or whether to go from strong man to strong man, under the Fascist Leftists.
When I hear people complain about how...whatever...America is, I think to myself, “It’s so much worse most everywhere else and at about any other time you can think of in the rest of the world.
As much complaining as I hear, no one seems to be making great effort to leave. Rather, lawless efforts to enter and Herculean efforts to return. Both to enjoy the bounty of the hard workers and to keep up the drumbeat of complaint.
