At the end of the Civil War, the union sought retribution on those that rose up against the duly elected government of the republic. They were hunted down, arrested, tried and most were jailed and or hung for their treasonous actions.
Fast forward to today. The left and their candidate refers to our current recall problem a "Civil War". Yet they were the ones that fired the first shot's. Just like at Fort Sumter. So what should we seek in retribution for their acts.
It is clear that they will be losing in the upcoming June 5th election so we need to think about this. I would start with a lump sum payment for all wasted taxpayer money spent on this uprising, including the damage done to the state buildings that were damaged. Next they should pay any and all overtime paid to the police of any stripe that was paid for working the "protests" and any OT paid to any other state, county and local Government that paid even one red cent to the recall effort. Next they have one year to repay the tax payers of this state for the unnecessary recall election in full.
I am sure that none of this will happen, but if this was a civil war that would be a start. So lets look at the civil war and compare it to this struggle.
Lincoln, like Walker was faced with an insurmountably issue or so it seemed. Bold actions were needed so it was taken. In Lincoln's case he said he would not abolish slavery if he thought it would have saved the union. Walker would not have had to curb public service union bargaining if he could have saved the state in any other way. It is clear to me that both men are great and took on huge problems head on and succeeded and did so with honor and humility.
One other thing that our friends on the left don't seem to get. There is no such thing as a CIVIL WAR!
War is not civil or civilized. But one thing is true only one side can win and has the righteousness of the people behind it.
Like Lincoln and Walker have.
