The Lancashire Witches 1612-2012

She was, along with a number of others named by the children, rounded up,
and by the time of the trial in August the Pendle accused had been joined in the dungeons of Lancaster Castle by other alleged witches from elsewhere in the county. All nineteen were tried in the space of two days, amid dramatic courtroom scenes. Ten of them were hanged the next day on Lancaster Moor, high above the town and overlooking Morecambe Bay. It was probably the first time any of them had seen the sea. -- The Public Domain Review

Your Say

Notice how liberals use the opinion of children as a bludgeon and as innate wisdom. Nobody claims they got less wise as they experienced more, yet commielibs want YOU to follow the wisdom of children. Cue the "Obama is gonna save us" music video.

Let us turn the same modus operandi on the Liberals/Progs/Socialists or any other name they wish to assume for disguise.

I don't think we have the time.

The most important thing to understand about liberals is they are not like us. Until that is well understood conservatives will just keep banging their head against the wall. They didn't become liberals through analysis of facts, so facts can't turn them from liberalism. They don't play by rules so you can't use clever rules against them. You show up where they are and you take over. You pierce their premise, point out their racism and hate. You must always be at war with them and never miss the opportunity to make them miserable. You aren't trying to change their mind, but drive them away, so turn up the energy until they leave. Above all, don't give a fark what people think about you. The Founders risked hanging to make their point. Our side will hardly ever display a bumper sticker unless they are given a guarantee of no harm. Fight like the outcome is important.
