Saw something really great yesterday

[Jilly_in_VA]

Just can't remember where I saw it. This is what it said:

"MY ANCESTORS CAME FROM NORWAY IN 1850 AND SETTLED IN MINNESOTA. WHAT KIND OF IDIOT GOES UP AGAINST DESCENDANTS OF VIKINGS THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER?"

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. What kind of idiot??? A hard-core fascist idiot, that's who!

[Ocelot II]

2. Vi er vikingenes barn!

Vi skal drikke akevitt fra fiendens hodeskaller og danse på likene deres! Ikke drit i Minnesota!

3. I was thinking about that...

A couple days ago. I've spent some time in Minnesota in winter, Wisconsin and northern Illinois too. Nordic genes are used to winter conditions. I'm a quarter Finnish, I can only live in the northern states.

Most of those clowns participating in the invasion don;t know much about the cold and it will bite them real hard in a couple days. There will be so many sick and injured that they won't be able to function. Shitneck says he's calling in troops from Alaska but I don't think he realizes that most of them aren't from Alaska. They have had survival training but that only goes so far.

9. Plus I've read that they're being kicked out of the hotels - maybe have to camp in their SUVs

Hotels are shutting down because these "guests" are ruining their businesses. Who else would want to rent a room near these thugs? "No Smoking rules - We'll show them!"

11. If i was in the hotel business...

There, I'd close until they left. They're the kind who cause you to remodel the room after they leave.

I hope many are adversely affected by the cold, it's going to get real cold this week.

18. EXACTLY!!

THAT would be the smart thing to do.

22. Told a friend last week that all hotels, restaurants, gas stations and grocery stores should shut down till they leave.

And anything that does stay open should put out of order signs on restrooms.

4. It's kind of like Napoleon or Hitler trying to invade Russia.

[JoseBalow]

5. Napoleon took Moscow

[BurnDoubt]

6. But he had to give it back?

[JoseBalow]

12. Yes, it was an epic retreat!

7. And 99% of his soldiers died on the way back out.

[JoseBalow]

8. It was certainly a bad idea

[MadameButterfly]

10. I love the history I learn on DU

[erronis]

14. Ain't it wonderful!

This is a bit of history every wannabe victor should read:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_invasion_of_Russia

The French invasion of Russia, also known as the Russian campaign,[a] the Second Polish War, and in Russia as the Patriotic War of 1812, was initiated by Napoleon with the aim of forcing the Russian Empire to comply with the continental blockade of the United Kingdom. Widely studied, Napoleon's incursion into Russia remains a focal point in military history, recognized as among the most devastating military endeavors to ever unfold.[23] In a span of less than six months, the campaign exacted a staggering toll, claiming the lives of nearly a million soldiers and civilians.[24][22]

Of course, Hitler tried it also and froze all his little tushes off.

The US has tried it all around the world and eventually came limping home after causing horrible damage - both to other lands and to our own people.

19. So? Still Czar Alexander I would not bargain. He didn't have to and Napoleon gained nothing.

The Grande Armée ceased to exist on the way back due to the cold and those pesky Russians nipping at their heals. Turned out to be a problem when Leipzig rolled around, seeing that the heart of the French Army that seemed invincible at Austerlitz, Jena and Friedland were picked over corpses on the snow covered fields of Russia and Poland.

13. ...

15. To answer your question & I believe this was self evident, ICEstapo idiots n/t

[Cha]

16. Love It! ❤️ TY!

Vikings!

[Zelda_Orchid]

17. The type of idiot who gets involved in a land war in Asia

[paleotn]

20. Anyone get the irony of ICE's name?

Warm weather wannabe's calling themselves "ICE" can't handle the frozen prairie of Minnesota in Winter.

21. I saw this picture today from a UK paper

I think it’s AI but your post reminded me of this pic!
