The Shooting Match

SHOOTING-MATCHES are probably nearly coeval with the colonization of Georgia. They are still common throughout the Southern States, though they are not as common as they were twenty-five or thirty years ago. Chance led me to one about a year ago. I was travelling in one of the northeastern counties, when I overtook a swarthy, bright-eyed, smerky little fellow, riding…

Four Puzzles

Washington, where I have been living for the past six months, is an intriguing city in at least two meanings of the word. Let’s take care of the more sinister meaning first. You can’t step into a Washington elevator without hearing a conversation suddenly die. You move to the rear, smile, and stare straight ahead as the two intriguers look…

Who Controls Public Schools?

In America education has taken on many of the characteristics of a religion: the state is God and the school is that institution in which good (i.e. productive) servants of God (citizens) are formed. Democracy, we have been told since the time of Jefferson, can succeed only if the average man is educated; and in turn, general education will insure…

Sam Houston and Texas Independence

The triangular racial duel, fought for so long a time for the mastery of North America, came to an end April n, 1836, when in the battle of San Jacinto, the Anglo-American colonists of Texas won their freedom. Since that day — in some respects one of the most significant in our history — the United States has passed through…

                                    Slavery & Abortion – A False Analogy Frequently the pro-life leadership draws a parallel between slavery and abortion.  You Say Abortion Is Legal?  The Supreme Court Also Legalized Slavery, reads one popular bumper-sticker.  The motivation for this comparison is understandable, since slavery and the Civil War occupy central places in the American historical imagination.  By gesturing toward one of…

Another Hack Wants to Rewrite History

Tom Steyer has been one of the largest left-wing donors in recent memory. From 2014-2016 alone, he reportedly spent at least $193 million dollars to help push climate change agendas and fund Democratic candidates. In 2018, he also pledged at least $30 million to get Democrats elected with the goal of impeaching Donald Trump. Steyer also repeatedly runs campaign ads…

Dixieland Despite

Dixieland Despite. Lorn, the city burns Aphelion, the world turns Cracked lips whisper, yearn Embers glow still yet Wind dying as dusk sets Illuminate her silhouette Vespertine eyes Incandescently cry All gone awry Granddaddy’s hearth turned to rust Ma-maw’s gown to dust Pecan tree reclaimed by crust Pulsing bodies, a mechanical rite Consecrated in the neon bright Drowned in squalid…

Asian Confederates?

Over the last several years the American public has been conditioned, like Pavlov’s dog, to think of white supremacy and slavery anytime they hear or see things that are connected to the Confederacy or the South. These conditioned people believe these lies because they are told to and usually without ever doing any research of there own, as I have…
