  The Truth according to @BlueHammer of what I can surmise, Is that Frank's been wrong the last 6 months, Trump is not G_D, it's actually Pocahontas, after all.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

One question ..... did you go out and goose step around the yard after you finished typing this?

You're a little bit confused.  Goosestepping is fascistic which is a leftist/big government/big brother ideology.  Roamer is a good conservative.

Nicely stated, @ABX , but I will take exception to it, as I truly think it is the other way around.

More and more I think the thing that keeps a society coloring between the lines, is the continuity between all aspects of a society. In part you are right - in that part - But I think it goes the other way around. I think religion has recoiled from society into the homes thereof precisely because it can no longer survive in the broader sphere. And in that, polite society, *all of it*, has also retreated, and we are left with cacophony and crime.

All of it is applied with force - Folks know how important that homogeneity is in culture, and folks have stood up to fight this infection at every turn, because it is so important to a culture.

We have not gone down this path on our own. It has been imposed. Every single thing that is the glue of culture has been purposefully eroded,and law has been used to continue that erosion, preventing folks from fixing the problem.

You are seeing the result of that imposition, and the continuing liberalism, beginning in the cities and leeching out like a poison into the countryside... Even now, the very heartland has become infected, and there is little left that can be done, without what's left standing up come hell or high water, as a people, and saying oh hell no, and putting it back the way it was.

But that is becoming ever harder to do - because this grim disease is no longer hidden in metaphors and and things spoken in whispers... It strides boldly in the halls of power. It owns federal law. It owns the media. It owns corporate board rooms.

It pours this vile shit down the throats of our young, taxes us blind, using our own money to give itself impetus, doubling and redoubling with every generation.

People have fought against it for decades, but our own laws have been perverted to stand in our way, against a foe 3000 miles away...

Given their own head, with the law to protect them, most communities would outlaw abortion. Most would outlaw gay marriage, most would instill morality into their community, just like they always have. If you think my little town would not put those 10 commandments back in front of the courthouse and back in every classroom, and would not re-institute public prayer, and do everything they could to put sin back on the other side of the tracks, you've got another think coming.

We cannot. It is being prevented and smothered as another culture is imposed from on high.

Good post Roamer

Don't waste your time. I knew lots of people who smoked it, back when "Acapulco Gold" was  the rage (before Paraquat). The survivors still do (some of them). (It used to be $5 an ounce). So don't try to convince me of the 'benefits'.
There are none for me.

Do what you want in your state. You're 2000 miles from me.

Sure!   He has all the answers.  Just ask him.  Wait...don't bother.  He'll just tell you.

OK @Cyber Liberty!  I think I'll do just that!  Hey @BlueHammer! You have just been promoted to King of America! Now lay out your agenda for straightening out this monumental mess we currently find ourselves in.

So, rather than break his piece down and refute/address them, you imply he's a Nazi or Fascist?

If you're going to troll our forum, you're going to have to do better than that.

Homey don't play that 'round here.

His IQ isn't high enough  to respond to intelligent posts.

But I'm glad he's enjoying his snow day from High School by calling his intellectual and moral superiors Fascists.

(Seriously........... is this the dumbest leftist troll TBR had ever had??  I'm pretty sure he is).

Nah.......... Dexter is much more intelligent and logical than this bozo. No drug can make someone this dense.

The problem for most parents is $$.  I just looked up the tuition fees where we sent our kids and now it is over $13k.  If you have only one child that is relatively affordable, but sending multiple children would get to be a bit pricey.

That is still less than what the State currently spends to 'educated your child.  If the State gave that money to the kid instead, then everyone could afford a good private school education.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

And yet, the worse public schools get, the more money the left throws at them.

So, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and suggested both.
