I seriously doubt it will ever come to that again. People might vehemently disagree with the people who hold certain governmental offices, but I honestly don’t believe it has come to the point of secession from the union, not in this economy and not with 4 years flying by so fast. Heck, we will be electing a new congress next year so…SwordMaster wrote:Yeah, it is polarized!
I know there are a few academics that are predicting the split up of the Uniion down the dixie line. I really hope it does not come to that.
Does that mean we can finally kick the Yankees out of Florida?SwordMaster wrote:Yeah, it is polarized!

I think that's why they picked tax day to do it.Omphalos wrote:I'm wondering how much of this is because tax day was yesterday.
I used to have hope that once a younger generation got into power things would change for the better, now I'm not so sure.Eyes High wrote:I seriously doubt it will ever come to that again.

Times are tough and people are angry. They will blow off some steam and maybe, if we are lucky, the politicians will listen to some of the average citizens once again.

Half the people... oh, you know.SwordMaster wrote:Thought you would like that. So did they parents take their kids out of school for the protest? Did you bring your children to the protest? Seems kind of like using them as puppets.
Obama is Hitler! You have to admit those folks sort of take away the legitimacy of these protests.
Congrats. Good parenting is always easy to spot and I knew you would not be the type to bring out the kids. But I wonder about those who do. Yes indeed half the people. I was always pissed off when left wing extreemists compaired Bush to the devil or Stalin or whatever, because thats just crazy talk. Unfortunatly protests ajnd the like tend to bring out the really wild types.Freakzilla wrote:Half the people... oh, you know.SwordMaster wrote:Thought you would like that.

I didn't go, I had to work late... every day this week. My kids do not stay home from school unless the doctor orders it.

I try not to take my kids on the Atlanta streets at all, it's not safe. That's why I live in rural Paulding County and have a 110 mile commute, I don't have to worry about them getting molested or killed by a random crackhead.SwordMaster wrote:Congrats.
