Likely your friend honestly did see something different than you when they watched.<br /><br />The question becomes, how do we share a nation when one third of it sees a completely different reality from another third? Or can we?evanfardreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07139014422086590847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-20871747288654516292020-10-03T00:02:39.781-04:002020-10-03T00:02:39.781-04:00The "protests" should subside soon.

It will get to the point that a husband will only tell his wife "I'm going out. I'll be back later" to protect his teammates if/when his wife is arrested in the middle of the night.<br />Some overzealous fool will torture/kill the wrong person and then it will devolve into a bitter, escalating vendetta and it wont stop until the only survivors were unborn when it started.<br />It's going to be hideous...FredLewershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221076803807309775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-42180604966680488312020-10-02T17:05:34.856-04:002020-10-02T17:05:34.856-04:00Fascinating post, Linda.

It's easy to wear the mask and carry the baseball bat if you know government has got your back. I predict declining enthusiasm at the point that resistance appears.<br /><br />Mr. Eden, think we will sue our weapons when our backs are to the wall. Just now the rootless, deluded young and bottom feeders have less to lose than us bourgeois beard strokers. The days approach, however, when our enervating prosperity will be withdrawn from those with the most stake in the status quo. If you're pushing wheel barrows of cash to the grocery store it might occur to the person doing that that "in for a penny, in for a pound" pretty much captures his mood. It's a rare person who has six months of cash and provisions on hand. Then add in foreclosure on the homestead. At that point I doubt I'd tolerate various snot-nosed kids or professors of wokeness and their fingers in my face.Col. B.
