Dishonorable Trash, Masquerading As Our Countrymen

During my lifetime, classic virtues such as rugged individualism, honesty, bravery, skill-at-arms, mental toughness, productivity, and what Finns call “Sisu” (audacity, resilience) were honorable traits for both men and women.

As amazing Americans, we were expected to strive after them, no matter our starting point, audaciously carrying on the example set for us by our nation’s gallant Founders.

What we see today is that “virtuousness” is now ascribed only to the mentally fragile, confused, helpless, unstable, lazy, sleazy, “damaged,” willfully unproductive, who have convinced themselves that they just cannot deal uprightly with the demands of life.

This is our new “model,” what we’re apparently supposed to “take pride” in, at least according to modern American Marxists (masquerading as “Democrats”).

Our gritty Founders endured a grim period of this continent’s history, and their heroic struggle greatly influenced the writing of our Constitution and the first Ten Amendments.

Prior to the Revolution, raiding parties of French (with their Indian allies) wreaked havoc on settlers during the French and Indian Wars. Subsequently, during the American Revolution, the British (with their Indian allies) repeated identical hideous cruelties upon newly independent Americans.

Sole ownership of and immediate access to fighting arms quickly emerged as the key to individual and family survival. Established British (later Colonial) military garrisons were utterly unable to, and not particularly interested in, protecting settlers.

When the struggling Continental Congress finally did raise a local militia, it was immediately “absorbed” into the Continental Army and promptly deployed elsewhere!

Violent British Tories (much like violent leftists today), along with their Indian allies, knew this well and continued to prey heavily upon American settlers. This meant that every individual American (men and women) had to have military arms in his or her immediate possession, combined with the willingness and icy determination to act quickly and unilaterally in the defense of their families and neighbors.

Since the Revolutionary War, American history has been impacted by similar conditions on multiple occasions. The cold, hard reality was always just a breath away! The prepared and audacious sometimes prevailed, survived, and prospered. The self-pitying, willfully unprepared, excuse-making, and “victim-oriented” never had a chance.

They still don’t!

“Without its tough spearmen, Hellenic culture would have had nothing to give the world, because it would not have lasted long enough. When Greek culture became so sophisticated that its common men would no longer fight to the death, as their fathers had at Thermopylae, but became devious and ‘clever,’ a horde of Roman farm boys overran them.” ~ TR Fehrenbach.

I am reminded of this quote:

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
― Samuel Adams

The day will come when the strong will stand up and fight and the wimps will disappear , because history demands it . Tyrants beware there are still patriots among us who love America and freedom .

you’re absolutely right John.

I agree. I add to your editorial one remark: grit, tenacity, and a fighting spirit are worthless without preparation and training.

If they invade my home or my country I’ll just TikTok them back to where they came from by turning their Social Media associates against them. They won’t be able to post a meme without losing all their subscribers. I know I’m right because my followers said so.

Self-defense is not just a Right under the 2A, it is an obligation or responsibility as explained in Warren v District of Columbia – 444 A 2d, 1 (DC Appellate, 1981). This ruling upheld decisions in similar cases at the state level and other inferior courts, and this particular case involved 4 women who were assaulted and brutalized over a 14 hour period by men who rented rooms in the house they inhabited. They had called 911 in DC – twice – and, although the police responded, they failed to investigate thoroughly while the men assaulted the women, darkened the… Read more »
