I too have previously served in various capacity in the League, including state webmaster and chairman of a regional chapter. I was presented the R. E. Lee award at a national conference several years ago. These new comers that charge me with not knowing anything about the League show their ignorance. <br /><br />Seldom does the philosophy of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" work out. Just look at the past and recent foreign policy of the Amerikan Empire. Just what sort of future does the League envision, along with their National SOCIALIST allies? <br /><br />I suppose you may describe the League's latest actions as "clever", and I suppose they may well be, but many other adjectives come to mind first.<br /> Greg Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573698300242148817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6778110032837888912.post-73847688256536575722017-07-21T20:06:22.438-07:002017-07-21T20:06:22.438-07:00"there is such a thing as being worse than us..."there is such a thing as being worse than useless."

Both are necessary, both have a unique purpose. The SCV (and other, similar groups such as Free Flordia First) can distance themselves from the "radical" LoS, as Sinn Fein did with a wink and a nod to the IRA. Nothing wrong with a multi-pronged approach to any battle, if you study the Art of War. <br /><br />And this is a war for our culture - indeed our continued existence - in case any of y'all haven't noticed. (Especially this past year!) It has been a cold war for most of the past 150 years, but it's heating back up to a boil - whether we wanted it or our not is irrelevant. It's time to start thinking strategically.<br /><br />So FAR be it from to attempt to be the "peacemaker" or "voice of reason" in this case, but let me respectfully suggest that both sides of this discussion need to be a lot smarter than our enemies (which are legion, and some not as stupid as we would like to think). There's still an opportunity to persevere... Though it shrinks smaller with every passing generation. Clever action - even "unconventional" action - is likely necessary at this point. I may have issues with each and every group I've encountered, but I continue to pray for the best outcome no matter what.<br /><br />God Save The South.Bruce Arnoldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6778110032837888912.post-37369001505449150402017-07-21T19:35:35.592-07:002017-07-21T19:35:35.592-07:00I've thought for awhile about posting this, an...I've thought for awhile about posting this, and decided to go ahead. Even though I haven't been active in the LoS for well over a decade, I thought my perspective might possibly be useful to both sides of this argument. (Or maybe not. Feel free to ignore if you choose.)<br /><br />I was there in the first years of the LoS. I traveled to my state conferences (Missouri). Back in the 90's I was the webmaster ("rebmaster" - a term I still hold dear and used as my email address to this day) for our state LoS webpage. I was appointed as the SW Missouri regional representative for years. I met Dr. Hill and many others of the early League leadership. (I say these things not to boast, but merely to establish my background.) <br /><br />Unfortunately, I eventually became totally burnt out, dismayed at the lack of meaningful progress and other reasons (not having to do with the recent direction of the LoS). And even though I followed the online publications and Facebook page and such, my perspective is still much of an outsider at this point, and is presented as such. I don't claim to know the LoS leadership personally, and certainly don't claim to know their motivations. With that disclaimer out of the way, I'll continue...<br /><br />I never agreed with the strategy of adopting the white flag with the black X, but didn't oppose it either, figuring (hoping) perhaps someone wiser than I knew something I didn't. I remember when, years earlier, Dr. Hill carried the LoS when no one else was even willing, and even though I am wary of "long-term leaders" in any positions, I admired (and still do) his stubborn will and determination. This is part why I don't easily criticize his actions as LoS President. (Again, there may be plenty of other reasons for concern I don't know about, but I admit I'm speaking as an interested outside observer.)<br /><br />I do very much want to point out one thing that others may not know, or have forgotten: Dr. Hill was an established professor for a great many years at a predominately black college. The insults, abuse, and entirely unfair attacks that he and his family were subjected to were extreme, to say the least. I certainly would caution anyone attacking him to metaphorically walk in his shoes as much as possible, and reconsider. I can absolutely understand the concept of "blowback" - if you are attacked and called a "racist" with such vigor for so many years, why wouldn't you eventually think something akin to: "OK, if that's what you want, that's what you'll get." A thoughtful person cannot endure such abuse forever without absorbing it to some degree - I've been called all kinds of such things for two decades for my unswerving support of our Southron heritage and rights. So I know firsthand how it can impact even though most hardened soul (and I assure you my soul is well tempered by fire and ice). And still I can only glimpse at what Dr. Hill (and the other long-time supporters of the LoS) have endured.<br /><br />(I've reached the limit of comment length, so this is to be continued in next post.)Bruce Arnoldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6778110032837888912.post-26619281666959490952017-07-21T16:33:15.975-07:002017-07-21T16:33:15.975-07:00And yours to me, sir.
