Interesting read.
I think many of you readers are familiar with the Battle of Athens, Tennesee. After WW2 the returning GIs ecided to clean up the county that had been run by a tyrannical sheriff.
They ran a bunch of candidates under a 'GI ticket' and campaigned, promising all votes would be listed as cast. The county had a machine running and the elections were rigged.
Long story short, on election night the sheriff carted the ballot box off to the office to stuff it and the GIs fought back. They had plundered the local NG armory for weapons!
(By daybreak all the plundered weapons had been cleaned and returned to the armory.*)
*Ever notice how conservatives clean up after themselves?
Anyway, it was an interesting read.
Conservatives do clean up after themselves. I was involved with several local GOP rallies in 2020-21, and never did we have to police for trash. When you see a nation as 'yours to defend,' you tend not to turn it into a trash heap.
ReplyDeleteWhen you see a nation as corrupted, and worthy of being burnt down... You act appropriately.
Agreed.
ReplyDeleteI REALLY pissed off a woman that attended the Women's March when I told her that the next time she ought to bring her mother along to clean up after her.
