At the risk of going off topic, I'm always curious how this happens. Did someone hack an account that was unused, or do people actually have such a crazy mindset that they set up an account 10 YEARS ago, post a bunch (366 posts?) then just let it sit to swoop back in, shout into the wind and go away forever?

I mean, that's seriously nuts, right? As an admin of an active board, what do you think is really behind these sort of public self-beheadings?

BWJones, Professor eh? I understand now.

I can't believe you just said that.

And I can't believe you wrote what you did to the owner & operator of this forum, so we've both enjoyed some astonishment today.

Wrong again prof, the Constitution, much as I admire it and its drafters, doesn't give us our rights. You might want to buy a book.

I'm going to show up in your yard per your invite. Set up a lawn chair and periodically speak with other guests. Stick around for a decade. Then, one day, when you are speaking, I'm just going to stand up and curse you out in front of everyone at the party.

Please make sure the lawn chair whacks me in the head when you toss it out behind me as I'm being EJECTED.

This entire political idiocy does offer some gifts sometimes.

Several points:

The other group, NOT HERS, had the permit to protest.

HER GROUP initiated the violence.

Prior to her being hit, the event, thanks to HER GROUP, devolved into an unlawful assembly, even though (to my knowledge) it wasn't declared as such.

HER GROUP was illegally blocking the road, as BLM and antifa have done, illegally, countless times.

She was not part of an angelic group that was exhibiting angelic behavior.

All the facts have not come out in this case. I'm sure there will be more that do not reflect kindly on HER GROUP.

I find it hard to have sympathy for people that create shit and expect everyone to bow down to their DEMANDS, only to have it bite them in the ass!

I don't find it hard to do, because I have no sympathy for the commies at all.

She should've stayed the fuck out of the road. If she hadn't been standing in the road, she'd be alive today, to do her oh so important social justice warrior whiny, self-entitled horse shit.

I'm sorry to see a woman killed like that. She may have been a fantastic person. What everyone needs to remember is that these Profa (PROgressive FAcists) were throwing garbage cans through Starbucks windows when Obama was President. They called themselves "Anarchists" then and they were protesting globalism or some such crap: but they are the same idiots, same philosophy, same hatred, same anger. Same costumes too - black and wearing masks. The KKK was marching through Skokie, Illinois back in 1978.

This shit has nothing to do with Trump, the media is full of crap as usual.

A technicality, but a very important one.

The real beauty from Virginia is that a bunch of left wing Nazis got into it with a bunch of left wing Fascists.

It's like watching a wasp and a hornet fight while perched on Stinging Nettle. Doesn't matter which, or if both, get stung. Win-Win with a side of awesome.

Last summer in Dallas, Five police officers were murdered and I don't know how many wounded, but the Leftists just brush that aside as the acts of one individual.

I'd call them 'hypocrites', but it would be redundant. Leftists fall into two broad categories: Hypocrites and just plain old genuinely stupid.

Charlottesville and truth

Those who control the narrative control the truth. Following Charlottesville, all must understand the broader context of current events – the conservative movement (not to be confused with media-created Alt-Right or white nationalists) desires the restoration of America's founding principles, as documented in the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

The principles of freedom are universal (all men) and are granted by God. Our founding documents enshrined these rights, and were "exceptional" in their development and institutionalization.

There is a counter-movement that seeks America's destruction and the imposition of a new covenant, predicated on the wisdom of man or, more particularly, a select group of men, who seek to manage the affairs of all man.

These two contradictory principles are reflected as liberty and tyranny. Freedom and totalitarianism. Charlottesville was a "shot heard 'round the world" of the opening salvo in the final battle between these two worldviews.

What is remarkable (about our current culture) is the virtue-signaling and moral superiority maintained by those who control the dominant (leftist) narrative. It is not possible, as President Trump asserted, that "all parties" are to blame for the violence perpetrated at the ill-named "Unite The Right" event in Charlottesville. The left controls the narrative and has a lock on what is determined to be "hate."



Washington Post headline: "Trump lit the torches of white supremacy in Charlottesville. We must extinguish them."

The media; local authorities; and, in this instance, Virginia's governor, Terry McAuliffe, determined, before a word was spoken or a step was taken in the "permitted" march, that "white nationalists" (whatever that is) are haters. Disregard that countless prior Black Lives Matter events (sanctioned and unsanctioned) called for the murder and suppression of white people generally and white cops specifically. Likewise with Antifa events, where violence was perpetrated against, again, predominantly white people.

What is truth? Who determines truth? What if what is true contradicts the culturally approved "narrative" of truth? If the left (or any entity) can control what is deemed hate, then it can control the populace.

Are we (you and I) prepared to stand on truth, if the "culturally accepted narrative of truth" contradicts universal truth?

"All men are created equal" – by our Creator.

While man has not always fulfilled "this promise," America and her people have worked toward this endeavor. Our humanity (and God's hope) dictates that we continue to pursue this truth.

There are forces that seek to tear this promise apart. It serves the totalitarian to divide us – by race, class, gender, political affiliation, ad infinitum. A common people, striving toward a common universal truth, is a threat to those who seek to control. Fissures, wedges, lies are inroads to destruction. Utopia cannot be fulfilled (seemingly) until America is destroyed.

It is up to us (you and me) to stand on the truth (come what may).

A New (cultural) Revolution is upon us. The next 12-24 months will determine our future. Liberty or tyranny. Lies or truth.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown
