We the People

 

Rioting is organized and targeted….. At you.

There is good reason that the 1^st Amendment protects our most important and inalienable rights. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

“Peaceably to assemble and to petition the government.” Therein lies the rub. What we have been witnessing in democrat run cities across the nation is a well-organized, well-funded effort to create chaos. These riots are part of a deliberate, well thought out plan to destabilize our government, the first step in a fundamental transformation of this nation. Sound familiar? This slogan was part and parcel of Barack Obama’s first presidential campaign. Democrat party legislators throw their support behind the protesters, vilify ICE, or stand mute, any of which tacitly support the overthrow of a duly elected President and obstruction of his administration’s policies.

An alternate universe has seemingly replaced reality as the left controls the streets and the legacy media affirms their “just” cause. This entire scenario is orchestrated by “woke” far left mayors and governors in blue cities by their refusal to, not only not cooperate with ICE, but to declare their cities “sanctuaries” for illegal aliens. By not cooperating, their court and jail system refuses to notify ICE when criminal illegal aliens are released. In other words, criminal illegal aliens are released back onto the street to reoffend instead of ICE taking them into custody. This in turn, requires ICE to search the community for the criminal illegals, where they also arrest other illegal aliens as collateral damage. So rather than make their community safer, their policies create havoc and incite agitators, not peaceful protesters.

Notifying ICE when criminal illegal aliens are released makes, not only the community safer, it allows for ICE presence to be minimized and immigration officers to make the arrest in a safe and secure facility. These policies by democrat run cities are doing the exact opposite of what they are intended to do. Or are they? In Minneapolis, Mayor Jacob Frye, Governor Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison have all been implicated in a pay for play scheme involving the Somali welfare fraud investigation, turning a blind eye to the fraud in return for campaign contributions. This entire chaotic scene in Minneapolis could very well be intentionally orchestrated to obscure the ongoing investigation into their role in the fraud. Follow the money and you will have your answer.

The ongoing funding and organization of the anti-ICE protests has links to believe it or not, China. The New York Post published an excellent article outlining the funding sources. here. It is somewhat understandable that the true believer anarchists and paid protesters are out in force. What is not however, are the useful idiot teachers, liberal white women, and the other hangers-on that contribute to the chaos. A University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee instructor has required students to engage in 20 hours of protest. Failure to do so will result with a failing grade for that class. Since that liberal arts class does not include “protest” as a requirement in the curriculum, I believe that any student in that class would be justified in challenging their “failing” grade. Public education, particularly in universities, are rife with leftist teachers and professors. They do not instruct students to think critically; they compel students to believe and accept leftist ideology. It was a sound strategy for the leftists of the 60’s and 70’s to infiltrate academia to indoctrinate the next generations.

“The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.” Friedrich Nietzsche

This nation is facing a critical moment in history. The left is engaged and growing its’ base. Christians and conservatives are sitting idly, shaking our heads at the lunacy of it all, while the disease metastasizes without proper treatment. That treatment is clear. We cannot ignore these civil disturbances that are spiraling out of control. We need to stand firm against this evil that will overcome our Republic if we do not. If we fail to wake up, it could be the death knell for this nation. This nation belongs to we the people, not to those who would destroy it. Whatever your position on immigration is, what we are witnessing on the streets is not acceptable in any society. Anarchists and America haters are teaming up to create a path to socialism. Stand aside and they will. One more article from Capital Research Center to make the point.

“What is the most sacred duty and the greatest source of our security in a Republic? An inviolable respect for the Constitution and Laws.” Alexander Hamilton.

 

 

Cause and Effect

 

Consequences of poor decisions.

Many of the Star Trek spinoffs contain discrepancies from the original series canon. Those inconsistencies are justified by crafting a multitude of futures based on the effects of decisions that create an entirely unique timeline, arising from those disparate decisions. Each individual choice creates a new chronological set of outcomes. There is no limit to the choices or futures in this sci-fi theory. In the real world, individual choices produce only one set of outcomes. Our choices have consequences. Poor choices end badly. Wise decisions are often rewarded. Confronting law enforcement while armed is a very poor decision. If you comply, you will not die.

The civil unrest in Minneapolis is driven by several factors. Anarchist groups organize with the express goal of destabilizing society. Self-proclaimed social justice warriors see themselves as pursuing a just cause. Misguided individuals that join the mob are nothing more than useful idiots. Minnesota elected officials, suspected to be complicit in the $Billions of Somali fraud, incite violence with their anti-ICE rhetoric, perhaps to deflect further scrutiny into their actions, or lack thereof. So many of these protestors are not protesting an unjust government but simply aiding and abetting corrupt politicians.

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” Abraham Lincoln.

Foot soldiers like Renee Good and Alex Pretti are used by the anarchists as pawns, with the strategy to sacrifice them to further their goals and drive public opinion against the rule of law. Did they die for a just cause? Absolutely not! The United States has the right to enforce duly enacted immigration laws. State and local governments have a duty to respect and cooperate with Federal immigration officials. By refusing to cooperate and obstruct ICE, State and local officials violate 18 U.S.C. ss 1501, a misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in prison.

“Liberty may be endangered by the abuses of liberty as well as the abuses of power.” James Madison.

The right to peacefully protest is enshrined in the 1^st Amendment. To obstruct or violently protest lawful enforcement actions is not. We are all faced with difficult decisions. Those who follow the law and endeavor to discern God’s will for us will prosper. Those who rely upon their own understanding and deny our Lord and Savior will not. The decision to rebel against worldly authority carries negative consequences to those who choose that path. If you comply, you will not die.

“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God.  Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval.” Romans 3:1-3. 

Those virtue signaling liberals, that envision themselves as saving their fellow man, are protecting illegal aliens whose only contributions to society are committing criminal acts and increasing the national debt. We are witnessing the fall of the western world as elitist liberals elect leftist democrats to office so they can stand by and fiddle while Rome burns. Any reasonable person understands that the actions of the left, if allowed to fester, will overwhelm and destroy civil society. Leftists want to destroy this nation and if they ever gain power, they most certainly will. We need look no further than the out-of-control democrat run cities.

Evil is real and is evidenced by the once proud democrat party. It is imperative that good people reject democrats whole heartedly. Democrats that embrace leftist ideology must be voted out of office before they succeed in destroying this nation. Stand idly by, and you just may wake up to a nation you no longer recognize.

“People often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course, that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote - a very different thing.” Walter Judd.
