Someone recommended this book. Anyone know if it's any good?

It's like 50 shades of grey but for 1960's style racism.

As someone who loves identifying antichrists, the white supremacists in it sure fit the bill.

Speaking of books they always find in domestic terrorist's collections, this is excellent:

This sounds like a good one, I like dystopian novels.

It's about a race war in a super liberal 1990's america (written in the 60s) where he basically describes a crime ridden rape world where scared liberals afraid to be called racist have taken away everyones rights and then "the orginization" (a terrorist group of white supremists) begin a series of campaigns across the country, and

 
eventaully start a nuclear war, turning the main character into a suicide bomber after his failed initiation to the esoteric cult of white supremists.


Ironically the main character, and heros of the story hate conservatives almost more than they hate liberals, even going to the exctent to excecute one of the orginizations high ranking officers for being too conservative.

In the end it gets to the point where the organization seems straight up antichrist, even putting a mark on liberals foreheads after they take over, and the fans, or author dont seem to notice the fact that they made themselves the antichrist from revelation.

Don't encourage him. It weakens your case to endorse such malarkey. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What did I do?

My grandmother recommended that book to me. I thought it was about hunting or something.

Next up is "The Red Badge of Courage" by Stephen Crane. First published in 1895

Attachment 18463

Taking place during the American Civil War, the story is about a young private of the Union Army, Henry Fleming, who flees from the field of battle. Overcome with shame, he longs for a wound, a "red badge of courage," to counteract his cowardice. When his regiment once again faces the enemy, Henry acts as standard-bearer, who carries an American Flag. wiki page
bookmarked, thanks

Default DIY encyclopedia

Been going through this set of books, the tabacco pipe automatically gives an aura of expertise. The books also have some pretty cool old techniques that have fallen out of favor.
