I lived in Germany for a couple of years. It's a black eye for sure.Apparently its illegal in Germany to discuss Nazism.
Germans ive spoken with are super tight lipped about the War. Understandeably so.
Education is a reminder. its necessary.
I use to coach baseball and basketball….. I was even a middle school soccer coach at one time.….. I am very competitive and was constantly trying to learn better ways of doing things….. I feel like coaches get stuck in things that have been taught for 50 years and are unable to learn new:better ways of doing things….. I was trying to teach my daughter pro shot form technique….. you would have thought she was a leper by the way other coaches looked at her….. I even had refs coming up to me telling me I was screwing up my daughter’s shooting…..I held follow through to the count of two, then followed. Made some, missed some but if i missed i was around for and got some rebounds and put backs. I do see what you‘re saying but I guess that years of teaching makes it difficult to unlearn. I‘ll probably still yell “follow your shot!” View attachment 432794

My buddy lived in Frankfurt. Also, have a relative still there, distant as it is. Very friendly to Americans.
I'd head over toward Obersalzberg, then have that conversation.
'How's it feel? (deep breath) All that freedom?'
For the worlds sake, let’s all pray it doesn’t happen. Communism would be the death of freedom and we do not need them trying to gain more control. No labor laws on wages and complete control by the government. No thanks.They literally have two industrial Cities. Rest of Country is third world. Coal has to be shipped in. China hasnt even begun to tap into its own resources.
Average American saves 20% of each paycheck. Average Chinese, over 50%.
Not only will they own us. If and when they decide they want to control the World economy, they will. Get used to it.
Just spoke to her Uncle, shes still in the hospital. Her oxygen levels are still low. Said she still doesn’t feel good this morning. He said she’s not on a ventilator yet, so I guess that’s good news. Still needs prayersAny word this morning from @SweetasSoda ?
