We, As a Society, Have Totally Lost Our Way

[Bailey Guns]

We now have at least one state (IL) that is Hell-bent on denying law-abiding citizens their Constitutionally guaranteed right to purchase/possess modern firearms, even for defense.

That same state has now approved a plan to issue driver licenses to illegal aliens.

What the fuck happened to the great country I once knew? The greatest threat to our freedom, by far, is liberalism. Has been for the last 50 years. No, it's not Islamists or al Qaeda. At least we can kill them when they threaten us.

We are living in the time of the downfall of the greatest nation in the history of the planet. Ain't it grand?

[Great-Kazoo]

PC run amok. The kids who were taught in school their parents couldn't hit them now run every #$%^ thing. Having never felt an open hand or strap have no clue what being wrong is.

[bryjcom]

Its happened before and will happen again. Its the cycle of humanity. I pray that this time the engineers haven't found a way to break that cycle and keep it at a stand still for the rest of eternity.

We've had a pretty good run when it comes to the history of the Liberty of Man.....

Yep...I'd say we're at about 6 o'clock on that circle.

Unfortunately Complacency and Dependance are today's norm. Not one FSA person want's their boat rocked. They have no clue some of us have no issue sinking that boat.

I'm right with you Carl and Jim... It starts with the youth, I had the opportunity to meet with a good friend who is now the SRO at Evergreen High School, she had a couple of students with her and they invited me to join them for lunch. These kids now a days are so entitled! Of the three kids there two of them were very outspoken Democrats! You're 16! WTF do you know about anything at that age? I remember at 16 I was too busy chasing girls and perfecting the art of looking like I knew what I was doing under the hood of my car to give a damn about politics. Then again, my parents didn't let the TV (Read MSNBC and CNN) raise me. [facepalm]

It's all part of the plan... http://vimeo.com/52009124 - call it tinfoil stuff, fear mongering, or whatever you want, interesting video.

Sink the fucking boat and throw them cinder blocks instead of life preservers.

[bryjcom]

I was thinking about 4:30 to 5:00 o'clock. Sad my kids have to grow up in this shit....

What was that quote?? "I study politics and warfare, so my kids can study history and arithmetic"....... Something like that... Forgot who said that.

[Bailey Guns]

I honestly and truly feel sorry for those of you too young to know what this country was like in the 50s and 60s. It was a hoot growing up then.

This is the best thing that I have seen all day. Or worst thing; I guess it just depends how deep our grave is dug before we wake up as a collective and renew the cycle.

if thats the case then how long till 12oclock ?

[Great-Kazoo]

Throw them looks of pity & contempt. How's that shredding of the Constitution working for ya now cocksuckers. Yes, you too young lady, you too.

[Troublco]

I remember the early 70's and I see a massive difference between then and now. I can only imagine before that.

[Zundfolge]

I was thinking about 4:30 to 5:00 o'clock.
No, it's 6:59 ... It'll tick over to 7:00 as soon as later this month.

I think the real question is how long is it going to take to get back to 12:00 ... Years? Decades? Generations?

[ray1970]

When 10:00 comes around I hope those of you who remember how great our nation once was step up and make it great once again.

I hope your wrong.

As far as how long till its at high noon? I think a little divine providence will decide that.

I'm not buying guns for the fun of it.... Well maybe a little fun.. but you know what I mean.[Tooth]

22:00 .....Game Time!!

[speedysst]

Lately I've been contemplating the Founding Fathers and what it took to actually take up arms against the British. How mad do we have to get before it hits the fan and not in a friendly election setting? Seriously, what is the next step in eroding the Constitution, which the "progressives" seem to think is a "living document" that they can alter at will to suit their ideals? When does it become time to saddle up and lock and load, especially here in the US?

I really like this diagram. Where did it come from. I would love to share it. But would like to know the source....

[GilpinGuy]

I think we're at about 6:35 - so close to the Tyranny. I mean, damn near 50% of Americans pay NO federal income tax? Talk about dependence!!

And I don't believe true Tyranny will happen next week. But I think some asshat (in Obama fashion) will try some seriously over-the-top-shit before I see my newborn baby girl graduated high school. How the masses react to this asshat is what matters. Makes me sad that I have little confidence in the masses.

[JohnTRourke]

Let it burn.

[Singlestack]

Many libs seem to subscribe to that whole notion of "never let a disaster go to waste", and are pushing there extremism hard in any way they can - education, the courts, censorship, etc. We are on a fast ride to 8:00, and the speed we are heading there takes my breath away, Couple that with the recent election and overconfident overreach, and all of the makings for absolute tyranny are present. Just add in an economic crisis like Peter Schiff thinks will happen in the next 4 years, and we are probably heading toward 10:00. I do read a lot, and what is happening is more bizarre and sad than just about any book I've ever read.

Not sure where that one came from, but the general idea, it appears, came from a guy named Tytler. Here is his original apparently and its a little more depressing. We have a couple of more stages to go through apparently...

Remember, remember the 5th of November.

Yes, when a Catholic terrorist tried to bomb Parliament to usher in a Catholic Theocracy in England ... why freedom loving people (left or right) identify with Guy Fawkes is beyond me.

I graduated high school in '94, and I noticed a significant difference in the attitudes of the kids that were set to enter reality in '96/'97. I think that was the tipping point, where kids didn't hold doors for the elderly or even for adults. The culture of respect was lost in there. I am not saying there aren't exceptions to that, but growing up that was the norm. You held the door for Mrs. Craig and her cane, or you got thumped.

Accountability, it always comes back to accountability.

I'm already set, lol.. you & your cat/dogs are welcome to come..[shithitsfan]

I always wonder that too... plus attempting to achieve your goals via terrorism only pits the masses against you.
