In 1967 the school stuck me on Ritalin, went from high energy and happy, to straight "A"s and zombie like, and the real me was being suppressed, the kid who was built to be a warrior, the kid who knew every second of what was happening at 360 degrees within his environment. The kid who could out perform everyone else on every level physically and mentally, these fucks didn't want us in their world view, we were the ones who laughed at the pawns and didn't accept their global BS views. No, I wasn't a bully, I was the guy who kept the punks in order. I was literally the all American boy. Still have JFK's Presidential fitness award.
Even the army was pushing back against us, they no longer wanted warriors, they wanted the academic, the calm, order following drone.
That was obvious all throughout specialized training, they were picking out the quiet guys and advancing them towards OCS, they weren't looking for high achievers, they wanted compliant.
I saw it, but I had no idea what it meant, I just knew actual warriors were no longer wanted or needed. this was at the end of Nixon's term, the man the left despised as they ushered in the incompetent Carter era.

We aren't losing anything, it's just the left escalating their attacks against our very Founding.
Libs only read headlines, while Conservatives ask why are you doing this?
In the end, the lib thinks the right is bad and out of touch, and the Right gets painted as extremists because we want to hold onto our God given rights.

When I served on a jury, it was left to the jurors to select the foreman.
Quote from: Solar on Today at 07:28:14 AMJuror #1: Because he was selected first, he'll serve as the jury foreman.
Quote from: supsalemgr on Today at 11:52:44 AMSeven more will be selected along with, I believe, eight alternates.Ahh, they aren't done, didn't know that.
