Gouverneur Morris in 1812

Northern secession was openly in the political brew again. Eleven (11) years before, Jefferson had cautioned New England’s desire to secede while accepting their sovereignty to choose as they wished. Since then extensive changes had come about. Jefferson was retired and Hamilton deceased.

Our landmass more than doubled with the Louisiana territory. 2 more States, Ohio and Louisiana, were added to the Union and more than 2 million people. But the greatest difference was that in 1801 we were at peace. In June 1812 we went to war and in July invaded Canada. The country was in upheaval. In Baltimore near July’s end several Federalist editors, supporters of Morris’s party and opposed to the war, were taken into protective custody. A mob broke into the jail, took them away and beat them. One died of his wounds. Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island refused the call for militia except to defend their own States. The fleets of New England and New York suffered great commercial losses. New York had become the preeminent commercial State in the Union. The war brought another showdown between the Hamiltonian (Federalist) and Jeffersonian (Democratic Republican) parties. Madison had hit a beehive and the bees were out to sting.

Fred Reed is not optimistic about the summer of 2020:

Hoo-boy. She’s ready to explode, go high order. Smoking ruins, dead bodies, seething hatreds, and a country that can’t be put back together. It may not happen, but she looks ready.No one is in charge in this collapsing shell game of a country. In Louisville hundreds of armed blacks threaten to “burn the motherfucker down,” meaning Louisville, if they don’t get their way. All cringe before them, with reason. They have guns. Larger numbers marched in Georgia, armed, ready to rock and roll. BLM says it will “go into the suburbs” to get Whitey. Who will stop them? Not the government. It fears them. Weimar Kentucky. An American Freikorps.

America today in video. Scroll down to the New York footage. It’s Planet of the Apes.

So racist. I am literally shaking.

BLM wants to go into the suburbs to get Whitey. God help us. Then it will well and truly blow. BLM doesn’t know how many white men are sick of the chaos and destruction, sick of BLM. They quietly say, “Bring it on. Let’s settle it.” 

Better sooner than later, I suppose. It's not as if the demographics are going to improve their chances over time.

CRAVEN COUNTY BATTLEFIELD PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION

 

Gentleman,

As promised here is August 1, 2020 Newsletter. I planned to submit this newsletter as a Word Document but currently, the document will not upload so I desire to send it out through regular e-mail so everyone can receive it today. Once I can get the Word Document to open and upload it I will send it to everyone. I first and foremost have been keeping an eye on the hurricane in the South Atlantic and praying that North Carolina will not be affected by this Storm. Below are the main point in which is to be focussed on in August, 2020-December 31, 2020.

1) I have opened on the "Office of the President of the CRAVEN COUNTY BATTLEFIELD PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION for anyone desiring to run for this office, I have decided for the preservation of this organization and the preservation of New Berns Battlefields and Sites I will remain, President, if nobody desires to run for President. If you do desire to run for President please e-mail me so I can get a date/time out to post your story and desire to run for office so our current members and associates and vote.

2) The Current Racial Tensions in the United States stalled the CCBPA from receiving 100% in granted financial funds for three Fort Dixie signs. The donors also decided since Fort Dixie has been completely bulldozed they will not currently finance anything on signs where Fort Dixie was but 50% on matching funds. In September the donors who desire to remain anonymous will reconsider 100%.

3) Evans Mill Blockhouse: I have tried several times personally working with the owner of the Evans Mill Blockhouse and have not received any positive feedback on a change in Easements or allowing the CCBPA to purchase the Easement to ensure it is always held. It currently is held on an HOA Easement. I desire as many to still see signage and a location for visitors to visit this Blockhouse in the future.

4) Fort Croatan, Croatan Station, New Bern Battlefield, Evans Mill Tour: This Tour is scheduled for February 1, 2021, and all sites have been approved. I will send out the itinerary and how you can join the tour and any related cost once I have all the updated details from the owners. Anyone on the tour will have to sign a disclosure of agreement of understanding that if you have injured on any site the owners of the property are not responsible. "The Tour was pushed back due to several owners' concerns over COVID-19. This was a Tour I planned to guide in September.

5) New Bern Battlefield Parcel: This site of nearly over 11 acres is still in the process of being negotiated with the owner between the American Battlefields Trust and the owner. Once further information is available it will be sent out to everyone. I sent out a Battlefield Map by Steven Stanley on this site a few months ago. Anyone desiring to see it again please ask me and I'll resend it.

6) Batcheldor's Creek Battlefield Park Plan: This is a long term plan in which is still in the planning process and not expected to have full details until a few months from now. With the help of the SCV in North Carolina, Georgia, and the American Battlefields Trust I believe this can be made a reality.

7) Craven County Fairgrounds: Today the Craven County Fairgrounds contacted me asking to meet with their Representative to start the planned of an approved sign and to go over further details of the grounds in which on March 14, 1862, a large portion of the Battle of New Bern was fought. I want to thank the Fairgrounds for their appreciation of New Bern's history and the Battle of New Bern.

8) Trophy Gun and the Site of the First Shot of the Battle of New Bern: Months back I posted a Newsletter on information about the Trophy Gun that Mike Hitt has researched and traced to Kennesaw Mountain National Military Park where it sits today. This Cannon was the Cannon that fired the first shot of the Battle of New Bern under Latham's Battery whom Lt, Wheeler was in charge of this particular Gun. I desire to see a sign in the future placed off Old Cherry Point Road where this occurred and have further information provided on the Trophy Gun for the public.

9) Fort Thompson Line: The line in which runs over a mile is currently being sited for Confederate Regimental Markers to be placed along with the remains of this line that marks where each Confederate Regiment on March 14, 1862, was in place at the time of the opening of the Battle. The signs have already been approved for purchase and the money is available currently. The CCBPA has to have approval from all owners and be sure the signs would be protected. Time and date for sign placements along the Fort Thompson Line are desired for mid-2021. With this year's Racial Riots and we are desiring to allow everything to settle down before we invest in this so nothing is damaged.

" THE CRAVEN COUNTY BATTLEFIELD PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION IS IN NEED OF VOLUNTEERS AT ALL LEVELS. I PERSONALLY AM OVERWHELMED IN THIS WORK BUT LOVE IT WAY TO MUCH TO STOP. I DO NOT BELIEVE NEW BERN'S HISTORY DESERVES TO BE FORGOTTEN AND JUST PUT TO THE SIDE. I AM ASKING ANYONE AVAILABLE, WILLING TO HELP IN ANYWAY TO UTILIZE YOUR SKILLS AT THE SMALLEST OR LARGEST LEVELS FOR THE BENEFIT OF NEW BERN'S BATTLEFIELD AND SITES PRESERVATION TO PLEASE CONTACT ME BVY E-MAIL, PHONE. THE MORE VOLUNTEER'S AND HELP WE AT THE CCBPA CAN OBTAIN THE FASTER WE CAN PRESERVE AND HAVE A WEBSITE UP IN NO TIME. I UNDERSTAND EVERYBODY HAS FAMILY'S TO SUPPORT AND I PERSONALLY MYSELF PLACE GOD, AND FAMILY BEFORE ANYTHING AND ANYBODY. NEVER ALLOW ANYTHING TO COME BEFORE THAT. I DESIRE FOR THE CURRENT CITIZENS, TOURIST AND THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY TO ONE DAY BE ABLE TO SEE NEW BERN'S HISTORY THROUGH SIGNS, PRESERVED LAND AND MORE BOOKS FOCUSSED ON THE BATTLES AND CAMPAIGNS.

Master of Victims: Wokeness and the current war against Truth

We are now witnessing a glut of economic and political pretensions. Throw into the mix a virulently vacuous use of the term “racist,” and we begin the emotional descent into a tribalism that can only lead to chaos.

“Wherever politics tries to be redemptive, it is promising too much. Where it wishes to do the work of God, it becomes not divine, but demonic.” — Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Truth and Tolerance (Ignatius Press, 2004), 116.

America’s “Days of Rage”: The Extensive Left-Wing Bombings & Domestic Terrorism of the 1970s

 

As the summer of 2020 dawned, left-wing radical groups began rioting and taking over parts of America’s cities. While this specific form of left-wing violence is new, left-wing violence itself is far from new in the United States. Indeed, one of the most hidden and concealed parts of recent American history is the extensive left-wing violence that began in the late 1960s and continued into the 1980s.

At first, one might think that these were isolated incidents of small-scale “protest” or even minor violence. However, upon even brief examination, we find out that the outpouring of leftist violence over this time period was anything but minor. The most likely explanation for why you have never heard of this until now is that the events of these years have been consciously buried by those who would prefer you not know about them.

HCQ

Via Ralph

Dear Mr. Kolodny,


Below is a comment to your article in the TN Star about the Ohio pharmacy board's attempt to ban HCQ, and the Governor intervening to reverse that.

I question how a drug that's been in widespread use worldwide for over 65 years can be called "controversial", especially since it has proven itself safe and effective? And what exactly is the "controversy" concerning the cellular mechanisms by which HCQ and zinc attack the virus? If you watch the first 15 minutes of the second session of the linked summit, you will see exactly how HCQ with zinc attacks the virus and prevents its replication. It is not only a preventative, but also a proven cure, especially in the early stages of the disease. The physicians presenting in that summit described thier front line experience with the drug, not some offhand comment unsupported by fact. The "fake science" attacking HCQ was so blatant that two leading medical journals had to retract the articles within 2 weeks.

------------------------

If you watch the first 15 minutes of the second session of the summit conducted by Americas Front Line Doctors (link below), you will see the 5 different mechanisms by which hydroxychloroquine attacks the virus. It is not only a preventative, but a cure, especially when combined with zinc. Anyone can have an opinion, it is much more difficult to dispute fact.

https://lbry.tv/@AmericasFrontlineDoctors2:6

Other presentations during that session detailed how physicians are being attacked by their state medical boards for prescribing hydroxycholorquine, and how the pharmacy boards are thwarting the efforts of physicians who prescribe it by refusing to fill the prescriptions - which is unprecedented arrogance on the part of the pharmacists.

Also, the virus has proven itself only slightly more infectious and no less lethal than the seasonal flu. So enough already, get the facts, and get back to your lives. Here's a link to a site that has compiled evidence world wide to support that assertion - the opposing argument is based on irrational fear, offhand comment, and unsupported hyperbole, nothing else.

ANTIFA’s Top 5 Weapons

 

 Dad, put money on my university meal card.

Editor’s Note: This article was written by Trace Munson and was first published by our friends over at Freedom’s Lodge. It is being syndicated here on GunsAmerica with their permission. We hope that you find it as amusing as we did 🙂

Even if you’ve been living under a rock, you have no doubt heard of ANTIFA–and that would probably be because some ANTIFA dork took that rock off the top of your head and hurled it at a cop. ANTIFA, which in the amusing doublespeak of the anti-gunner stands for “anti-fascist,” has been quite busy of late. Between fomenting riots, breaking windows, and setting downtowns on fire, they have also found the time to create some…interesting…weapons technology.

In the interest of investigative journalism, I recently went undercover and infiltrated an ANTIFA weapons engineering center. I assure you that it was a fascinating tale of bravery and derring-do, but you’ll have to take my word on that one. Having escaped by a red Pelosi hair, I have returned with their latest top-secret technology. Sit back and prepare to be impressed by the top 5 weapons of America’s latest media darlings!
