removed God from schools, destroyed the family structure, ascribed virtue to the virtue-less.


well my school had god in it cause it was catholic school, i'm guessing your the type that thinks that doesn't count, most this board would agree with you, i've been married 41 years, my son's coming up on 10 years and have new baby girl.

so my family structure is great, for most white people that's the case as 74% of white children grow up in an intact 2 parent home.

the only thing you can really control is your own life and you seem miserable. are you??

I think you spent too much time online and in big urban areas. Get in the burbs or just away from the big city and you'll still find most folks are good people who just wanna live their lives.

Life didn’t get bad until Trump got reelected


It sounded like he was gonna make things better then a blackrock employee shot at him and Trump completely changed from what he ran on

It's all over. We're all doomed. We should just give up and accept our fate. That's how we honor the people who died for this country.

If all of the conservatives unite, then we can all surrender together. We can pull each other's pud while we talk about how conservative we are instead of finding the resolve to go down fighting.

Little Bitch Conservatism is the new flavor we should all embrace.

I don’t have the data to support this; but, based on my observations, the past 15 years represent the most precipitous decline.

Unfortunately, this group doesn't seem to have much influence on the direction of the country - politically or culturally.

The 25th Anniversary of 9/11 marks some weird things.

On 9/10/2001, we had essentially been away from war in any meaningful way for a decade and had been separated for nearly 25 years from a long term, sustained war.

Our national debt was negligible compared to present day. Things we see today, like support for a woman who admits murdering her kids, a Muslim mayor of NYC, woke culture acceptance, etc., were unimaginable.
One major thing you left out is how much lower crime is now than then.

The literal peak in violent crime occurred in that window.

I believe so. Unless we invade Canada and take their resources. Let's do it!

Hunter S Thompson's essay a week after 9/11 was pretty prophetic:


quote:


That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks. The time has come for loyal Americans to Sacrifice. ... Sacrifice. ... Sacrifice. That is the new buzz-word in Washington. But what it means is not entirely clear.


Couldn't have been more wrong. Americans are vastly wealthier now and even more economically dominant vs the world.
