Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire When did we cross the rubicon?

That was Neville Chamberlin

What would you rather have seen? A coward?

1913. “Let me control a nation’s currency, and I care not who makes its laws.”

I'd rather have seen the limey bastard put a gun to his head and pull the trigger.

I have to vote for 1913 as well. The "Progressive Era" started well before, but without the Jew-created and run central bank, it would have been nigh impossible for anything else that came later, including two world wars, a bunch of smaller wars, socialized everything, and endless government bureaucracy. And with the government poorer by miles, we'd be in a far better position. A lot closer to the Constitution. Without a bunch of fake money to bribe people, and a group set on the subjugation of the US running it, corruption would be a lot harder to come by.

I'd say the rot really began to set in after the turn of the century.

We crossed the rubicon when trump showed that accepted norms don’t matter. He has brought brass knuckles to a boxing match and the establishment does not seem to realize it. Controls need to be tightened to ensure crazy people can’t Shanghai a political party. The political parties need to self regulate to ensure this crazy crap never happens again. If a cult leader wants to run he or she should run on their own dime and platform.

both you have never read a history book and lack even a basic understand of world politics, cultures. not surprising

I agree that what Lincoln allowed to happen to America was a great travesty, and probably one of the worse in our country's history... However, I agree with those below that the installment of our third central bank is the worse currently running scheme. Without it, none of the current maladies would be possible.





This is the current, largest continued Threat to all sovereign and free nations, but especially here in The United States of America, where our citizens hold a much larger base of Rights & Liberties that cannot be found in ANY other lands or worlds. All other concerns pale in comparison, and could be quickly dispatched if we could only remove this relentless parasite from Lady Liberty.

Don't forget Women's Suffrage. We've all been suffEring from it ever since.

When do gooders got the vote for more than land owning taxpayers.

Well that’s surprising since I advanced placed out of history (1865 to present) when I was a freshman in college. 😝

Truth! Cancer goes for quite a while before the symptoms get bad.

1,000 years from now, we (the USA, as we know it) will likely be in history books, being studied by some other mega-power country, probably learning from our fatal mistakes.

Despite our current downfalls, this is still the greatest country in the world today. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else...

But it will not last forever. No civilization ever has. And we won't, either.

11/22/1963.

I said when BushClinton sold out. I was told it happened before that.

We have a society with too many who want to live at the expense of others and too many who don't have the balls to speak up. I know I'm a broken record and irritate the weak, but what shapes opinion more than liberal television? Yet too many conservatives support it financially and pipe it into their homes. Do people really think that political correctness was just an outgrowth of a maturing society?
Hell no. It was educated into the young and gullible andused to silence their spineless parents. Just MHO.

When Foxnews came out.

I'm a fox News watcher and I'm much more in their camp than any other, but when they started showing the more conservative point of view the other networks decided to provide rebuttals. The liberal press all watched fox News but liberals didn't so it devolved into only showing the liberal points. Fox became more conservative and the liberal press became more liberal. It started a News war that was rejoined on both sides.

Now you have an electorate that is deciding how to run the United States government on incomplete information because most folks are either on one side or the other.

I have no idea how we get out of this. Families can't even have Thanksgiving together anymore due to the political division over mostly silly misconceptions. We almost all still agree on the important points.

MTV. When MTV came out.

60's civil rights, great society BS along with Nam
