The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Wow, what a load of shit.

Of course, only you and the left would think so.

The left and democrats have no one who can equal what Charlie Kirk had accomplished in his
short life. The left has no rising star among them, not one who could shed a dim light and proclaim,
‘Hey, follow me! I can lead the dems out from this wilderness we are buried in.’

SNIP
"Within minutes of the gunshot. In Utah, millions of Americans, young and old, heard the news and dropped to their knees and started praying. Even many who rarely prayed ask God for a miracle. Please God save Charlie. But although Charlie's time with us on earth has ended, those prayers for a miracle have already been answered. Look at what's happening. Look at what's happening. In the days since Charlie's death, we have seen how his legacy has touched so many millions around the world. In Calgary, Canada, thousands gathered at City Hall to sing the American national anthem and raise up posters with the name Charlie Kirk. In Seoul, South Korea, crowds gathered to wave American flags and shout, we are for Charlie Kirk! His memory has been honored in the streets of Berlin, Warsaw, Vienna, Sydney, Madrid, London, Tel Aviv and all over the world. So beautiful to watch. A man as far away as rural Australia texted a pastor. I'm going to come to church tomorrow for the first time ever. The pastor says, why is that? The man replied, Because of Charlie Kirk. Can you imagine? The lesson of Charlie's life is that you should never underestimate what one person can do with a good heart, a righteous cause, a cheerful spirit, and the will to fight, fight, fight, have to fight. While saving our country. And Charlie's a big factor. Such a big factor. Charlie Kirk started with only an idea to change minds on college campuses, and instead he ended up with a far greater achievement changing history. He changed history. Today, Charlie Kirk rests in glory in heaven for all eternity. He has gone from speaking on campuses in Wisconsin to kneeling at the throne of God, where he is right now. We grieve for the friend and leader that we have lost, but we go forward, strengthened by his faith and bolstered by his courage and inspired by his example to defend the country he lived for."
