Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.
G. Michael Hopf, Those Who Remain (The New World Series, #7
I feel the hard times may be closer than we realize. The weak have made their way to the forefront. Thoughts?

having said that, it is easy to poke holes in it. Stalin, while physically weak with his atrophied arm, was certainly a strong man, and he created some very hard times.
@militantMom yeah that's what I mean - Stalin had that and created very hard times - albeit better times economically in the long run I imagine (not compared with western capitalism, but with feudal Russia before it)
Agreed and I think we need to fight fire with fire. The muslims think we're weak. They're barbarians and only understand hatred and barbarianism. Thomas Jefferson was the first to confront them when they tried to take over our Merchant ships. That's when they created the Marines! To confront them with their own tactics. It's time to do that again. We've been silent for too long and now we're allowing them into our own government! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! We need to send them back to where they belong and it's NOT HERE!

I don't really buy it. The main causal driver in muslim refugees heading west has been western directed war. Had we left Iraq alone, there wouldn't have been ISIS, and wouldn't be so many refugees. I lived in a muslim country for a couple of years and encountered nothing but good people and generosity. Now, that isn't an endorsement of unrestricted immigration or anything silly, but I do think a lot of this is blown out of proportion and the original responsibility lies at western governments' doors
I totally agree. Their tactics are to do something against our culture, then hide behind the liberal idiots in our government and country, and have them condemn us for not wanting their beliefs to overrule our rights. Bottom line, assimilation or get the Hell out! Our government has been infiltrated by maggots that need to be mashed. When they on the left refuse to have any dialogue and only shout and throw tantrums, it's time to break off a branch and beat their asses.
Very true statement, especially Good Times create weak men. We have had it so good for so long that we make up issues to be outraged over! We are acting like the planet is ending in 12 years meanwhile people in Venezuela are starving to death. Bizarre times.

I agree with both the quote and you. We are in hard times right now and it will get worse. We haven't the will to stand up to the bullying that confronts us from the Left and Muslims. We are caught in a downward spiral of irrationality and Muslim who are emboldened by Western appeasement.

It's true sadly.
True but not too late. They have pushed too far. Many of the silent majority are ready to move, once it is the right time.
That is the cycle , unfortunately .
