I tried to comment at the main article, but it wouldn’t work.
So, I was thihking “Duffel Blog”.
I agree that we have folks not willing to accept and wait for next year, to use a baseball term. Two assassination attempts on a Presidential Candidate. Burning the Governor’s Executive Home in PA. Burn a Tesla Day a fortnight ago. Yes, I am worried. I am especially worried because i see the Democratic Party rudderless and the danger of radicals rearing up to take leadership.
But, I am optimistic. We seem to work our way through it. As for Bragg and Benning, and all the others, in some recess of my mind I think they too were patriots, but loyal to a different view of who we were (are). However, when Robert E Lee surrendered, the majority tried to work within the system. Some didn’t. Fie on them. We, as a nation, were able to work back to a Federal System.
As for Jackie Robinson, I see him as an example of discipline and self control, who is a fine example for all of us. He put the game before himself. We should celebrate that.
Thank you, Cliff, for an extremely thoughtful response. I appreciate the precarious state we are in.
