America is far beyond how it was founded. The left pretty much controls every facet of the country. 2A is pretty much what holds the left at bay.

I’ve been saying for the last 10 years that everything liberals say, do and support is to increase their chances of having sex.

CRITICAL LIFE LESSON .
“Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”..
There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new communist regime. In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked: “Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said that it was no joke. “You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free food”.
“When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence”. “They get used to that and start to eat again.
You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side”. “The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again. You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd”.
“Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.”
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America . The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements, medicine, drugs, etc., while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time as the government forces us to participate in many of these programs whether or not we want to.
One should always remember two truths: There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself. If you see that all of this wonderful government “help” is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America, you might want to share this with your friends.
God help us all when the gate slams shut!

Quote for today: “The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those that vote for a living.”

You are correct. And that will only be the start.

The Snowflakes and many other Useful Idiots will melt.

As always; leftists are a domestic enemy. Some are terrorists, some are enablers, some are part of the problem by giving comfort to this enemy.

These are not liberals, they are fascists and communists - they make all the choices, you make only one: do as they as or its curtains for you

I agree but there is one more choice. Fight back just like our forefathers did. They risked everything. Their wealth and their lives. Their families lives too. Most lost everything to make us free.

The very least we can do is the very same thing. What have we got to lose? If we lose our freedoms our wealth, property, and families will have no future anyway. Better to fight and hopefully win than not fight and definitely lose.

They make absolutely no sense, but then what left wing loon does?

When they decide it is time, they will make us non-persons ... worthless credit cards, zero bank balance, mortgages called in, no work history, name erased from all possible documents and so on ... guns won’t do us much good after we officially cease to exist and have no place to go

The outcome of the recent midterms is heart-breaking for me - in the run-up we had the spectacles of the every Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee savaging a well-qualified candidate for the Supreme Court, completely abandoning standards of due process and fair testimony, of major figures in the Democrat Party calling for uncivil and even physical attacks on those who oppose them, and of left wing mobs attacking the Supreme Court building and conservative/Republicans going about their business across the country - that this sort of thing didn’t sicken and enrage a majority of the voters all over and drive them to the polls to reject every representative of the Democrat brand they could find is a very sad indication of the kind of trouble the country is headed for in the near future.....

If the radical left take over, the response will be so definitive it will either eradicate their influence for the longest foreseeable future, or destroy the US as a world power. Freedom is too entrenched in America to be easily taken away - and this is a shared view within every group of Americans, irrespective of race, religion, or any other designation. Anyone who cares about people, respects their right to self-determination, and is moral in their motivations, would want to avoid this. The left has a history and tradition of a totalitarian ‘my way or the highway’ approach to diverse opinion. If they don’t get beyond this they will sow the seeds of great misery, including their own.

Interestingly, I hadn't read the part of the posted article that stated the left’s ‘my way or the highway’ approach, but had the same response. It's just who they are, and it's extremely worrisome and disturbing. In my honest opinion, if one were looking for a Hitler or Stalin type of personality in society, the most likely place you'd find it would be in the present day left. There is much hate within their ranks.

Me too. More than 10 years. Have to be. Like I said, I’m old enough that being called a fascist for saying the law should enjoin some level of moral uprightness was one of the conditions for being called a fascist back then.

People do not realize that when this country began it was indeed common for anything not expressly forbidden to be lawfuleven as sexual morality received clear prohibitions in the laws of the Colonies and the States ... but now sex is about the only thing that’s hands off, if not the only thing. Almost everything else has been seized by the government and rented back to us as licenses. And they think they are free?

A morality dictated by the hormonal chemistry of your genitalia running unchecked through an untempered mind is no morality at all.

More likely it will be “kiss all the leftists good bye” when they finally prove to all they are a true enemy. IMAGINE ... Not a leftist in position of power or influence across the land - a new fresh day of freedom for ALL America ... THE FUTURE ....

Better sooner so that America wont have as big a hole to ‘dig its way out of’ that these leftists are making damaging/poisoning everything they touch.
