I have come to believe, that they wish to rewrite history to validate their view of America. No different than Hitler did to German history during his rise and the Jews did to Jewish history after his fall.
A few more years of californication and leftist news and we may be welcoming ISIS as our liberator. Swamp

Armed ‘patriot’ accidentally shoots self in leg at Gettysburg battlefield
http://s.pennlive.com/GdjGcUE
GETTYSBURG–A patriot who brought a revolver to Gettysburg National Military Park Saturday amid rumors of desecration of memorials accidentally shot himself in the leg Saturday.
The man in his 20s accidentally triggered the revolver, which was inside a leg holster, when he temporarily rested the bottom of his flag pole against the holster, according to witnesses.
Park police were nearby when the shooting occurred and officers quickly applied a tourniquet that may have saved the man’s life, said Sgt. Anna Rose, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Park Police.
A tourniquet type device covered the wound on the man’s left thigh as he was loaded into an ambulance. He talked with paramedics and seemed in good spirits.
The gun then went off a second time about 1 p.m. when police were trying to unload the weapon. The gun was pointed at the ground in a field north of Meade’s Headquarters along the west side of Taneytown Road. A PennLive reporter witnessed the second shot, which occurred as visitors to the park milled nearby.
Officers said the gun was “bad” and they had a hard time getting the rounds out of the chamber. After they forced all of the rounds out of the revolver, they secured the gun.
Other patriots nearby said they had just talked to the man who was injured and that he came by himself to the park. He was not part of any specific group, but was just there as a patriot, they said.

Dozens of self-described Patriots came to the park about noon Saturday after hearing rumors that Antifa protesters might crash the park’s events and try to desecrate memorials. Members of Antifa caused a ruckus in Harrisburg recently at an Anti-Sharia rally and one member was arrested for swinging a wooden pole with a nail attached at a police horse.
The rumors on Saturday appeared to be just that: rumors, as no Antifa members were seen at Gettysburg park Saturday.
Instead, there were dozens of men in camouflage outfits, some carrying long rifles or handguns or both, milling about the park holding large American flags. They walked outside of the perimeter of the fenced-in “official” demonstration areas, which were nearly empty all day.
A handful of members from the Real 3 % Risen group sat in one fenced area wearing Confederate flag hats and t-shirts while a lone man with a sign aligning the Confederate flag with slavery and racism sat alone in another fenced area.

The only way to kill this beast – is to starve it to death. Stop all charitable giving (this includes useless family that should be doing for themselves), pay as little in taxes as you can, vote against increased benefits or taxes – no matter how deserving, and don’t spend or keep a dime in the system that you don’t have to.
‘Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.’ Put any savings in tangibles that cannot be traced! Your are either part of the solution or you are part of the problem. Self Reliance and Barter should be your highest priorities and is their greatest fear! When the system collapses and it will, their priorities will change in a hurry! Will you be ready? Swamp
Develop a personal scorched earth policy to avoid aiding the enemies!
A military strategy of burning or destroying buildings, crops, or other resources that might be of use to an invading enemy force.

The election is over Trump won but i am still having to listen to the snowflakes here . It is quite simple for me to shut them up when i ask them to speak of facts no lies aka the spin .
I was in town picking up feed and a young man was telling his boss he just could not work the day shift because it was just to early for him to get up and come into to work . Sorry but i went off like a wet setting hen . I informed him he has a job some people don’t , if you don’t like your job quit today and i know there are several people that would be happy to have your job . If you worked for me you would be out the door right now and you can go to your safe place and cry buttercup . You want to work but you don’t want to work you can’t have it both ways , this is life you work for a living that is just a fact . The manger who i have know for years walked with me to my truck and told me thanks for my little speech , an older black man stopped and said i sure told it like it is the young people today just don’t know what hard work is all about they want a check but just don’t want to work for it .

They received many calls and aired the calls, people love it. It played about a dozen times today so far and more calls to the station requesting for them to keep playing it.
