History could repeat itself. The barbarians are at the gate rioting and fomenting their hatred towards this great republic.

  I don't worry about them.  I am more concerned about the elected seditionists in the halls of Congress.  Also, the paid agitators who frequent this board as well as the unpaid useful idiots who ask us to ignore our own good senses.

  FIFY.  I only hope you that live long enough to harvest the "fruits" of your labor.  I have a feeling that they will not be sweet.

I'm glad that people like you who are so easily swayed by bad people are going to be swept aside. You don't deserve to have your "leaders" in charge. You make bad choices 
 

 

Good bye

And the great ***** will suckle us until we are fat and happy and can suckle no more.

And that retort used to work great when there was a political party in American -- just for fun, let's call it the "Republican Party" -- that actually believed in limiting the size of government and reigning in the public debt. Now it's just a battle as to which party can give away how much to its own constituency. Just one recent plan of dubious legality:

One request:  just keep the gruel "honest".

Weird thing is, the only cities they are destroying are their own.

Riots and destruction are peaceful participation and looting is self entitlement.

I kinda consider myself an expert on how Rome fell. Our parallels are shockingly similar. 

 

Can you please share what you think the parallels are?   I'm in my mid 50's, and people have been talking about this for my entire life, but I struggle to see what the parallels are.  There are no hordes of Visigoths at our borders and we don't drink from lead pipes.  Also we have a pretty good system of government which ensures a peaceful transfer of power every four or eight years.

  I guess that I would be bothered by what you said if I thought you had any brains.  I'm not bothered by you so what does that say about you?


When you make comments like you did, I take everything you say about brains with a massive grain of salt.
