As I sit here listening to the reading of the names of the victims of 911 I am reminded of how far we have fallen.
My wife said to me that she remembered how united we were after 911 and I had to correct her. We weren't united. It was a false unity especially with the liberals and the Democrats.
For the months before 911 the precursor to Black Lives Matters were protesting every day in front of police headquarters. Led by Al Sharpton and David Dinkins liberal cunts like Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins and Jane Fonda were arrested every day protesting a police shooting. I think it was Sean Bell who was shot outside a strip club by an anticrime unit. Every day they protested the police and the rule of law. Then 911 happened. They had a big fund raiser at Madison Square Garden to honor the first responders and bunch of these liberal cocksuckers tried to go on stage to "honor" the first responders. They were booed off the stage. They didn't care about the cops and the fireman. They only cared about their liberal policies and controlling the populace who by and large rejected their insane woke ideas at that time.
From that day to this everything has gotten worse. Animals protest and loot in the streets and demand we defund the police and not arrest shoplifters and thieves. Soros district attorneys free criminals and end bail proceedings. Liberal censors ban tweets and posts by conservatives or basically anyone who disagrees with their corrupts and degenerate policies. The senile piece of shit in the White House goes on TV and demands everyone get vaccinated or else. Churches and small businesses were shut down by the government where you could get arrested for going to Church. '
How has it come to this?
Do you remember the days after 911? The burst of patriotism and the desire to protect our homeland. The tragedy of 911 was horrible for the families of the victims. I knew several of them. It destroyed the FDNY. We should never forget. But sometimes it feels like the Alamo and Pearl Harbor it is fading in our memories.
Can we honor the memories of the dead by destroying our enemies? Not the ones in Afghanistan. The ones at home. The ones who are ultimately responsible for the failure of our society.
Make America Great Again. Put America First. End the domination of the liberals and the Democrats or we will truly be lost.

I handpicked Marquette grapes all day yesterday with a range of guys aged 20 something to 70's (no Mexicans!). We got to taking about 9/11 and one of the twenty somethings said that he couldn't remember 9/11 but that he heard that the racism was terrible afterwards. Image your biggest impression of 9/11 being the ensuing "racism"? Another older co-worker later remarked on the shirt that at I was wearing which showed all the Hawaiian islands. He told me the story of the Niihau Incident. Niihau is the western-most main island. Right after the attack, the pilot of a downed Japanese Zero was given aid and comfort by three local islanders of Japanese descent. Some murders/suicides ensued but islander's willingness to aid the enemy was said to be a reason for the subsequent Internment Program.
Chick should form a union and become the Wisconsin Cesar Chavez. Went to Al and Alma's Supper Club on Lake Minnetonka last night. Good food but much different than WI clubs. Lots of windows[the lake view of course], very light, no relish tray, no fish fry. But we did have skillet fried walleye that was good.
On the way home I hit a fucking deer[there were 3..I evaded 2] in my new Highlander w/ 1800 fucking miles on it! Crushed my right front bumper and fender.
Neo, at https://www.thenewneo.com/ posted a powerful link to a short video done in retrospect which captures essence and conveys in a single quote at the end from an onlooker, what took place-- "a new type of war, that's what it is". One that is still underway and ongoing, unresolved and exacerbated by Biden's recent foolishness.

As Sir Winston once put it, "What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget?".
Most Americans haven't forgotten. And they know who the real president is. If you look at Seth Keshel's vote fraud report, you have a ballpark of how many states Trump probably took.
Right now, it's hard to tell who's sinking by the bow faster, Shih or Idiot (major inflation here, major unemployment and white flight there). Today didn't help. Idiot ended up yelling at somebody (some say he was doing his tough guy act with a heckler; we'll see) with all the Demo bigs around him.
Trump OTOH made a surprise appearance at a gathering of Gotham cops and firemen and was universally cheered. If this is the beginning (and don't give me this bull about a path or standing, this is not covered in the Constitution and is going to be played by ear) of a reinstatement campaign (march on DC a week from today), I'd say the opening skirmish went to 45.
Didn't mean to get into politics, but it's like not forgetting Stevens, Smith, Woods, and Doherty, who must be resting a bit easier knowing the Hildabeast is out to pasture.
Same for Ashli Babbitt, Rosanne Boyland, Benjamin Phillips, and Kevin Greeson. Ya don't forget.
These are the times that try men's souls. Guy named Paine said that.
Much like Sir Winston, "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never--in nothing, great or small, large or petty--never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."
As the Duke said, "There are some things that make ya tight in the throat".
Like those guys who mutually pledged to each other their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.
That sacred honor always gets me.
I have a feeling they didn't let Biden speak because as addled as he is he'd probably would chant "F*** Joe Biden".
It's the dance sensation that's sweepin' the nation.
That sacred honor always gets me.
One more time, I see something present with new eyes, as if for the first time. Thank you for making note of those two words. And what they mean to you.
Looking them up brought me to a blog showing a picture of The Signatures with these words underneath:
Look closely at the last sentence of the Declaration of Independence.
“And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”
Followed by this summation by the blog host:
Without honor between men, no civilization can hold together. George III provoked this war by treacherously violating his own word of honor, making it a worthless thing. By signing this Declaration, America’s Founders were renewing the proper definition of honor, and modeling it with their lives. They pledged their word of honor to fight together for independence in a way every other signer could rely on. Furthermore, they understood oath-breaking, dishonesty, breach of contract, and lying to be sins against the God Who defines honor, and Who defines the terms of all human government. British politicians had been replacing these definitions with cheap human imitations of honor with fake political grandeur and rule by tyranny. George III placed “his will alone” above all law and order in the American colonies. The Founders wanted to restore God’s sovereign authority to the affairs of life and government so they could live in true freedom. After the Founders finished signing their names, Sam Adams stood and solemnly summarized what they had just done. “We have this day,” he said, “restored the Sovereign to Whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven and from the rising to the setting of the sun; let His kingdom come.”
There it was in black and white--the essence of what matters.
Followed by this:
Finally, an ethics teacher from Canada addresses mandates and morality. While she doesn’t get into the natural law ideas explicitly, it underlies what she says. Basically, natural law argues that man’s greatest good is his rational nature, and to act against rationality violates the good of that nature: it’s bad, wrong, however you want to put it. Thus, Plato famously said that it’s worse to commit an injustice than to suffer an injustice. To commit an injustice abuses and degrades our rational nature, while to suffer an injustice does not. Mandates that violate rationality--which is the ability to freely choose based on reason--are injustices. They’re simply wrong, because they abuse and degrade our human nature
