American Girondins

 
This third American Revolution is about power, nothing more, and judging by the conciliatory response to the riots by people on both the left and the right (we want to understand you!), the founders’ America is already gone. It’s not a matter of if but when the entire fabric of American society will be torn to shreds.
Who should Americans blame for the iconoclasm on display during the “protests” in virtually every American city this past weekend?

Not the Left. They are the easy targets, and not without culpability. The washed up hippies teaching in American classrooms at every level have certainly been a major component of the cultural Marxism that now saturates American society.

But they are in the open about it. They are the real revolutionaries, the conspicuous Jacobins in this vast culture war most Americans are just now realizing is taking place. Rioting, looting, and vandalism will have that effect.

  1. Brace yourselves. The end of America as we pre-boomers knew it is just around the corner. My advice to the Millennials wishing for the "remaking of the Country" is don't wish for something because you just might get it and you very well might regret it.

  2. It seems to me the author is seeking one enemy thereby dismissing all the enemies.

    Perhaps I misunderstand the elder Bogs; what is wrong with wishing for the land of Fred McMurray in 'Follow Me, Boys' and Andy in Mayberry and a Boy Scout's three finger oath where giving your word actually meant something?
