The Yankee mindset has not changed much over the years. They still want to meddle in other people’s business and tell them how to live. Take a look at the Chicago Tribune’s response to the gun ban ruling. Rather than minding their own business, they advocate repealing the second amendment for everyone! It is amazing how some journalist have no become legal and historic experts in knowing what the founding fathers intended. Many of the Founding fathers and most of the early Presidents were Southerners. They wanted to be left alone by the government. The Yankee mindset is that government is your savior. Government makes things right. The exact opposite provides the answer. We need less government. Take a look at the major cities with gun bans-Chicago, the Imperial City, and San Francisco. Would a decent Southron want to live in any of those places? Are they fit to raise a family in?

It is not just with guns, but also the same-sex marriage issue, and various tax issues. Obama is full of the Yankee mindset. He advocates re-instituting the assault weapons ban, and banning firearms within 5 miles of a school, and eliminating concealed firearms. In other words, he is not a friend of liberty or gun rights.

The Yankee mindset has a long tradition of being associated with the Marxists. The Yankee army had many Marxists in their ranks in the 1860’s (e.g. Augustus Willich, Franz Seigel, etc.) and little has changed since. They still want centralized control, via government as the answer to problems, want to change the social structure of the South, hate Biblical Christianity, hate freedom (and guns), and want to reduce those freedoms.

Make no mistake, the same issues that existed in the 1860’s remain unsettled. Should people be given the right to govern themselves or is it up to the government to decide what is best for the people?

Free Texas!
