"We mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor"
Sometimes all the damning texts, indictments and revelations of criminal behavior in the world don't make a point as well as a mundane vignette from a stupid TV show:
A commenter was watching Jeopardy yesterday. Three contestants, all appearing to be in their 30's to early 40's.
The question was What is the source of the phrase "We mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our Sacred Honor,”
No one could identify the source. No one even tried to guess.
Not one. Not even a guess.
A 40-year-old would have graduated from high school 22 years ago, thus 1996. By then most public school systems were thoroughly controlled by liberals/socialists/"progressives," and had stopped teaching anything meaningful about the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence. Because if you know those, you know socialism is a disaster, freedom is the key, and you have to keep your guns to ensure freedom.
Handwriting on the wall.
