Whiff of the grape

I never thought I'd say a good thing about Napoleon, but his advice to "give them a whiff of the grape" when confronted with the enemy - surely appeals to me after witnessing and hearing about so much mayhem, looting, destruction and death post the murder of George Floyd which has obviously been hijacked by a left-wing mob mentality and an evil agenda to totally revolutionize America.  As Mark Steyn so cleverly said today, the "hamster wheel of wokeness" keeps turning faster and faster to advance the cause of resistance and change.  We are so woke now, that "Gone with the Wind," Faulty Towers," and "Dukes of Hazzard" are targeted for destruction. Historic monuments too. One whiff of grapeshot could have deterred this nonsense at the outset.  The center won't hold anywhere. Insanity and the triumph of ineffective reforms have won the emotional war.  Woe to us!
