Citizens and Denizens





There will soon come an armed contest between capital and labor. They will oppose each other, not with words and arguments, but with shot and shell, gun-powder and cannon. The better classes are tired of the insane howling of the lower strata and they mean to stop them. 

General William Tecumseh Sherman





As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.


President Elect Donald Trump and Vice President Elect JD Vance have before them the most ruthless insurrection and overthrow of a Republic, for it was done in criminalizing the American and using the system against the American, not with armies, or smashing force to alert the People, just the slow cooking of the frog as the heat was turned up.

The Lame Cherry believes that Donald Trump and JD Vance have within them the understanding of the reality which they face in a deliberate agenda to erase and replace Americans  which has been unleashed with brainwashing and court orders for the past 50 years. The question in this is though, will the President and Vice President act or react. Action is what is required as actions have been taken against Americans, but reaction is the cost of timidity and in this waiting time is a penalty as Butler PA proved, in we have no reports, no insights, no arrests, no prosecutions for murder and attempted mass murder. Waiting is a weight which drowns by reaction, when action is required.


We are held captive by a hedgefund oligarchy dictatorship which commands law and sows disorder.

Below are quotes from a letter, from General William Tecumseh Sherman, from President Abraham Lincoln to all of his commanding generals for their insights into the Civil War which America was engaged in. The President did not ask politicians, but men in the close contact with the reality of what was faced by America, who understood it from experience.

General Sherman's letter was so insightful that the President requested that it be published in all the newspapers. Sherman was not in favor of it even without naming him, as he would be attacked again as crazy by the forces arrayed against American Thought. The letter though survives as a White Paper on the Southern Culture, and if one replaces horses for cell phones, and the Southern man as a law to himself to the Obama voter arguing they are above the law, there is a repeat in history taking place and Sherman's analysis echoes an absolute warning for Donald Trump as President.

Donald Trump must from Day One define Americans as either citizens or denizens. He is going to have to make this nation pass under the rod as Abraham Lincoln did. He will either govern or he will be ruled. If California and this resistance is not shattered to the last enclave, this insurrection will vanish America.



I advise against trying to run civil governments in conquered States until the war is over. Restoration of peace and order would not come from the plantation owners, the ruling class; they still hoped for a Southern Confederacy.
I know we can manage this class, but only by action. Argument is exhausted, and words have lost their usual meaning. Nothing but logic of events touches their understanding; but of late this has worked a wonderful change.

The small farmers, mechanics, merchants, laborers, probably 3/4ths of the population of the South, in all things, followed blindly the lead of the planters. The Southern politicians understand this class, and use them as the French do their masses. They consult their prejudices, while they make their orders and enforce them. We should do the same.

These men of this class must be killed or employed by us before we can hope for peace. The youngbloods of the South; sons of planters, lawyers about town, good billiard players and sportsmen, men who never did work and never will. War suits them, and the rascals are brave, fine riders, bold to rashness. 
They care not a sou for niggers, land or anything. They hate Yankees per se, and don't bother their brains about the past, present or future. As long as they have good horses, plenty of forage and an open country, they are happy. This is a larger class than most men suppose, and they are the most dangerous set of men that his war has turned loose upon the world.

They have no property or future, and therefore  cannot be influenced by anything, expect personal consideration. I have two brigades of these fellows in my front. I have frequent interviews with their officers, a good understanding of them, and am inclined to think, when the resources of their country are exhausted, we must employ them.

No other choice is left us but degradation. The South must be ruled by us, or she will rule us. We must conquer them, or ourselves be conquered.  They ask, and will have nothing else, and talk of compromise is bosh; for we know they would even scorn the offer.  I would not coax them, or even meet them halfway, but make them so sick of war that generations would pass away before they would again appeal to it. The people of this country in after years will be better citizens from the dear bought experience of the present crisis. Let them learn it now, and learn it well, that good citizens must obey as well as command. Obedience to law, absolute, yes, even abject is the lesson that this war under Providence, will teach the free and enlightened American citizen.

I know what I say when I repeat that the insurgents of the South sneer at overtures looking to their interests. They scorn the alliance with Copperheads; they tell me to my face that they respect Grant, McPherson and our brave associates who fight manfully and well for a principle, but despise the Copperheads and sneaks of the North, who profess friendship for the South and opposition to war, as mere covers for their knavery and poltroonery.

Our officers, marshals and courts, must penetrate into the innermost recesses  of their land, before we have a natural right to demand their submission. We will do it in our own time, in our own way; that it makes no difference whether it be in one year, or two, or ten, or twenty, that we will remove and destroy every obstacle, if need be, take every life, every acre of land, every particle of property, every thing that to us seems proper, that we will not cease until the end is attained;  that all who do not aid us are enemies, and that we will not account to them for our acts. If the people of the South oppose , they do so at their own peril' and if they stand by, mere onlookers on this domestic tragedy, they have no right to immunity, protection or share in the final results.

In the North, the man dodging his share of taxes or of military duty, should be deprived of all voice in future elections of the country or banished or reduced to the condition of a mere denizen. The time has come to draw the line between citizens and denizens.
