Time Magazine gets it wrong again

[oldkat69]

Time Magazine gets it wrong again in their new video series on the Bill of Rights.  Your need to to watch only to understand the nature of the distortion being promoted.  

I am afraid the more things change, the more things remain the same!

"Your Bill of Rights
In 1789, the United States sought to make the union more perfect, drawing up 10 amendments to the Constitution now known as the Bill of Rights. In this series of ten short videos, TIME brings to life the words of the Founding Fathers and explores how these deeply felt ideas about liberty and property have evolved into the amendments as we interpret them today."

All that spinning makes me dizzy.

Just one more sign of the long term communist infiltration of US media.
The same thing has been happening in education.
This is not new, the tactic was adopted over 70 years ago.
That's how we got to this point.
People, we lost the Cold War.

If you start off with only half of the truth (the idea was to repel the federal government if it went too far, but forget about defending the nation as a whole), and then you twist what happened after the War Between the States (we rethought it ... because some states used it as inteneded against the federal government, and we didn't like that), and now put the cherry of "the founding fathers never imagined AK47's etc." on top, so .................

Why am I not shocked

Because, unlike the sheeple, you actually pay attention.

Gee, I never knew the 2A was rewritten after the Civil war!

I finally "get it."  Is there someplace where I can turn in all my guns?  I really shouldn't have them because I'm not in a state sponsored militia.  And I certainly won't need protection against the Federal Government.  /sarc off

How can a news magazine get so many things wrong in a little over 3-and-a-half minutes?  These people have skills.

Sheesh.

The MSM needs to be reminded that the Founding Fathers never imagined Linotype printing presses, movies, radio or Television either, so by their logic, the 1A shouldn't apply to them.

What the MSM needs is to be purged of the liberals, socialists, and out right communists who have dominated it for nearly a century.
You people just don't get it. You think wars are about battles, tanks, ships etc.
Wars are about politics, influence and power.
Sun Tsu pointed out, the most successful battles are the ones you don't have to fight.
The battles of the WWIII between Communism and Capitalism did not involve tanks in Fulda Gap, they were won by the communists in US universities, like Berkley. The anti war movement of the 60's was another major engagement we lost.
2 quotes from Stalin should help wake you up;
"Give us the children for 8 years and they will be communists for life" (He was quoting Lenin )

"“America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within.”
(That one should look familiar, it's BM's signature line )

For those of you who still don't get it I recommend you read up on the " Frankfurt School", and "Fabian (or "creeping" ) Socialism.
People have been trying to warn you since the Russian Revolution, but like Joe McCarthy, and the John Birch Society, they are ridiculed, shouted down, called "Red Baiter's" and demonized.
Now you are paying for it.
