My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
SFTS is a fairly libertarian sort who I've placed closer to some democrats than republicans in my own mind on occasion. His views on immigration are very different from what could be called the norm of American politics.
He's also from Tejas.

Strike, like most Texans, is a Texan first politically and an American centrist second, which makes him a Mexican.![]()

Sasaki Kojiro is a mystery, in a puzzle, wrapped in an enigma. Or something like that.
Actually I've always been around, I've been lurking for about that last two years and only make the occasional post though.

Uesugi Kenshin is a quiet thinker, only voicing his opinions on subjects he feels very strongly about, varying from minor left and minor right depending on the issue.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Pevergreen is centrist in nature I believe, leaning left and right on particular issues on a case by case basis (I hope).
Then again being Australian everything is nice and quiet and sameish most of the time anyway. :p
Gah too Late!:
Swedish is Leftist in nature???

Gaius is a far lefty, bordering to socialism, if I am indeed correct.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

OverKnight - a fairly centrist American who is disillusioned with the current state of American politics, at least at the Presidential level.
Also your analysis of me was pretty damn close.

GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

I think from what I have seen of Louis's posts he is somewhat of a left leaning bloke.
Oh and he is a foreign member of the NRA![]()

CA is an Oz republican to boot, they can keep the queen in blighty.

Alright, now my serious view of Louis...
Represents the centre-left of his native France and he is very anti-Sarkozy, from what I can pick up. Fairly anti-war and pro-Government in many economic regards, though liberal on Social issues - without being on the Fringe.

Andres: a natural centre-right. Socially very liberal. Petty social conservatism he considers fit for the small of mind and large of mouth.
Legally schooled, political questions are seen in an intricate framework of nuanced rights and duties, with an emphasis on inalienable human dignity. This, more than political affiliation, is decisive for his outlook. Equally dislikes a loudmouth Antwerpian Flemish nationalist as much as a whining socialist from Liège.
He protects his communautarian ideals against the onslaught of populist sentiment from any direction.
As the last sane person in Belgium, he stands alone.
For this he is rewarded by French mockery and Walloons who help themselves to his wallet at every opportunity.

Louis is a moderate, although with leanings to the left on certain issues, and suspicious of unregulated freemarketism
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
Rhyfelwyr - impossible to place down on the left-right scale. Very Socially Conservative but a Social-Democrat when it comes to economic issues. Perhaps the best simple label would be 'Christian Left'.
EDIT: And fiercely anti-Scottish nationalist.

Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
Kukri is a left/right of centre centrist, almost an extream moderate.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
