Independence Day, however, is a holiday!

Op-Ed: You’ll Never Beat A Tyrannical Government With Just Guns

I’ve written often on assimilation but never THIS well: Growing up American.

And about that first thing …. here are the questions asked of the LAST Democrat that threatened US Citizens with nukes (and were never answered)

And if I DID this isn’t where I’d be looking for a discussion.

Here’s the deal. I have several hobbies that the interwebs facilitate and improve. D&D and fantasy football to name just two. And in a given week I visit dozens of websites looking for hobby-specific information. Any new fantasy league rules? Where’s D. Watson gonna end up? Where can I find that old adventure published in Dragon Magazine in 1982? How can I improve my overland travel DMing?

And if I wanna read a lengthy discussion on CRT or Trans law or the Arab-Israeli conflict? Well, I have sites that will provide that in spades – from all directions. So “stay in your lane.” Hate that phrase but it applies here. There’s an outstanding (free) index source I frequently use that opens with the following warning: “And we swear to God, if anyone comes in here and starts spouting off QAnon bullshit about COVID-19 or literally anything else, you are going to get permabanned so thoroughly that your grandchildren won’t be allowed to post here.” I’ve always ignored it because I deem that phrase “literally anything else” to be broad and directed at virtually everything else regardless of the side. But a lengthy post at a D&D mapping site was a long-winded rant on LGBTQ (no, not “Let’s get Biden to quit”) LSMFT rights. Now the folks who run the site can write about anything they damned well want to. And why piss off 1/3 (1/4? 1/5?) of your readers. You’re making a wee bit of revenue off of ads, and maybe a patreon account. Why run them off? Bad for business but you get your virtue signalling jollies so there’s that.

I’m reminded of the story told by Yogi Berra. Yogi was behind the plate when a batter stepped into the box and used his bat to draw a cross in the dirt. Berra scratched out the cross with his cleats and said gently, “Why don’t you just let Him watch?”

The SJW’s are insisting that civil society be destroyed and replaced with ….well, nothing as far as I can tell. Those of us online trying to be civil would like to ask that they not be assisted in their destruction.
