I was actually at that double header.........If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

This one is actually kind of touching:

I think there is a good argument to be made that we actually would be.Originally posted by Gregg View Post---------------------------------------------

An argument yes. A good one not so much.Originally posted by The Feral Slasher View Post
If we want to heal as a nation we need some unity not exclusivity. The Whitney Houston that I posted was soon after 9 11 as it was just a little hope. On that day we were slightly better off than we were if it were missing.Comment

I submit that Colin Kaepernick did more to heal what is wrong with our country than Whitney Houston did there. Cheap unity is not going to help us.Originally posted by The Feral Slasher View Post"Jesus said to them, 'Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.'"Comment

The last baseball game I attended included a man screaming at some kids to take their hats off during the national anthem, in what was a very impressive display of unity and inclusion.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

I do not think we need to choose one over the other. Maybe they were both good in their own right? The days following 9 11 were not cheap unity. That unity came at a very high cost.Originally posted by Kevin Seitzer View PostComment

If you look at the results of that unity....it wasn't really that greatOriginally posted by Gregg View Post---------------------------------------------

After 9/11 we shared a common enemy.Originally posted by Gregg View Post
Today that enemy is each other.
We are in a literal fight for the soul of America, what will define it and who will govern it.
There will be little to NO compromise. The lines are drawn and there will be a winner and a loser.
In the end, America will look very different.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011
