I really hope Trump speaks out on this,
This is exactly the kind of anti- common sense, Marxist PC crap Trumpism is an explicit rebuke of.
Was thinking the same thing - of course Che was Heroic along with Castro who showed leadership... along with Obama who is stoic and eloquent (can’t go wrong when you’re saying “I” all the time)
Without crying.
But if it is tears of joy as they kiss the ground of the Great State of Texas, they should be welcome.
Originally from New Jersey, but Texas is my home.
Yeah, teach? You stand up against thousands of enemies, knowing you have zero chance of living thru it and see what it’s like to be heroic. Until then, you’re just a pathetic, cowardly and useless pu$$y.
.
Had the other side won, they would have been heroes.........
What’s next? The defenders of the Alamo were white supremacist that were hating brown Mexicans? You can see that race card coming.
Just ignore the fact that it was both Texicans and Tejanos fighting against the tyranny of Santa Anna.
Done. The wall should be funded on the Texas stretch from the Texas Rangers’ budget, as a matter of state security.
Indeed!
¥ At the Battle of Thermopylae, Xerxes I of Persia, with 600,000 men, met King Leonidas I of Sparta, with only 300 men. Leonidas had predicted the outcome of the battle, and so he chose only men with sons old enough to take over their family duties. Xerxes promised to spare the lives of the 300 Spartans if they would only lay down their weapons. The Spartans refused, shouting "Molon Labe" ("Come and Get Them"), and held the narrow mountain pass of Thermopylae for days. All the Spartans were eventually killed, but they inflicted such damage to the Persian army (20,000-40,000 dead) that Xerxes was unable to utterly conquer the Greek Peninsula. This act of heroism did nothing less than save Western civilization. The world that you know is due in no small part to those brave men who gave their lives 2,500 years ago. Today there lies a plaque at the site of the battle. It reads: "Go tell the Spartans, passerby, that here, by Spartan law, we lie." John Ruskin called this epitaph the noblest words ever uttered by man. The story of Thermopylae is very similar to the Alamo. Travis, Crockett, and Bowie considered their lives less important than the freedom of their people. As Otto Scott said, "Ours are the same tests and crises that our fathers and forefathers encountered." Our people face the threat of extinction today, and unless we count our lives as less important than the lives of our children, our people will perish. Sic Semper Tyrannis.
Texans used to give such pantywastes ‘the back of their hands’ for saying something so stupid.
‘school curriculum panel’ - people who would leave the coutry rather than fight for it ?
They have to stop the weenies from california from migrating to texas ...
Query:
Is “racist” a “value-charged” word?
Because we don’t want Hispanic people getting upset because the Marxists will whip them into a frenzy.
Some things never change.
Before we had “teachers” who successfully taught their students. Now we have “educators” who are politically correct but are totally unsuccessful at teaching students.
Just the beginning.
California is already a colony of Mexico, now they are working on Texas.
Heroic? ABDOLUTELY.
Col. Travis letter to the world from the Alamo:
To the People of Texas & All Americans in the World:
Fellow citizens & compatriots—I am besieged, by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Anna—I have sustained a continual Bombardment & cannonade for 24 hours & have not lost a man. The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the garrison are to be put to the sword, if the fort is taken—I have answered the demand with a cannon shot, & our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. Then, I call on you in the name of Liberty, of patriotism & everything dear to the American character, to come to our aid, with all dispatch—The enemy is receiving reinforcements daily & will no doubt increase to three or four thousand in four or five days. If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as possible & die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor & that of his country—Victory or Death.
William Barret Travis
Lt. Col. comdt
P.S. The Lord is on our side—When the enemy appeared in sight we had not three bushels of corn—We have since found in deserted houses 80 or 90 bushels & got into the walls 20 or 30 head of Beeves
Travis
Marxist thievery of our history and Culture.
To the Marxists:
This is my country.
I was born here and my ancestors arrived in the 1860s to 1900.
You guys get your own country and leave mine alone.
This country is mine. Get it?
I think they were white males and as such are not acceptable.
Or, screw the Mexicans and the socialist apologists for them.
This is OUR country.
Get out and go to your country. We’re sick of you leeches.
Always remember that Marxists like Debbie Ratcliffe, spokeswoman for the Texas Education Agency, would be more than happy to line you and your family against the wall. What prevents her from carrying out mass murder is the fact that you’re armed.
LMAO every time a Texan belittles California when their own state is deep in the shitter with this kind of instructional directions.
Having grown up in rural south Texas I remember cub scout skits reenacting the Alamo battle. Mexicans were not portrayed and only alluded to as “mescans”. I can’t imagine how all that has changed now. Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone were incredible heroes.
