Reckless

 

Is this the beginning of OUR end?

Mainstream media leaves no doubt that they have become the mouthpiece of the democrat party and the Left. Chaos is their best friend. When Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed two assailants and wounded another during the August 2020 riots in Kenosha, the lawless mainstream media could not contain themselves. In the United States, one is presumed innocent until proven guilty. The media inflamed the mob after the Jacob Blake shooting by the police in Kenosha, WI in August of 2020. Anti-police rhetoric, false narratives of police brutality and the incessant downplaying of “mostly peaceful protests”, emboldened the mob to engage in rioting, looting and arson. Governor Evers refused to deploy the National Guard and police were ordered to stand down. Lacking an appropriate police presence, left the rioters without tangible consequences and mayhem ensued. Mainstream media continues to encourage anarchy and destruction with their unabashed Leftist rhetoric. There is blood on their hands.

President Biden and a litany of democrats poured additional gasoline (more likely a non-oil-based accelerant) on the fire by declaring their anger at the verdict. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers had the unmitigated gall to make a statement, “No ruling today changes our reality in Wisconsin that we have to work to do toward equity, accountability, and justice that communities across our state are demanding and deserve.” Needless to say, Evers did send troops to Kenosha after the verdict was announced. Wisconsin Lieutenant Governor and US Senate candidate Mandela Barnes went further. “We have seen so many black and brown youth killed, only to be put on trial posthumously, while the innocence of Kyle Rittenhouse was virtually demanded by the judge.” This unabated anger mongering by elected officials is only meant to encourage further division and hatred. The rioting in 2020 has led to 25 deaths, over 2,000 police officers injured and $billions in property destruction. Our former divider in chief, Barack Obama issued numerous statements decrying police brutality and unfair targeting of persons of color by “white” society. This helped facilitate the rise of the Occupy movement, Antifa, Black lives matter and increased violence against police. As police are ordered to stand down and progressive District Attorneys refuse to criminally charge the rioters, the mob is further emboldened.

Kyle Rittenhouse, came to Kenosha Wisconsin to help protect property after a call to action was posted on social media, joining other citizens to augment the lack of police intervention. He armed himself with an AR-14, equipped himself with medical supplies to tend to any injured and was cleaning up graffiti. Should he have been there? Did he exhibit poor judgement by placing himself at risk? Did he really consider the consequences of his actions? Probably not. The question is, does his presence with a weapon make him guilty of a crime? If you watch any of the mainstream media, you would be led to believe that it did. This is patently false, a lie that has been proclaimed over and over. Joe Scarborough of MSNBC led the charge by accusing Rittenhouse of vigilantism, intending to target persons of color and indiscriminately firing 60 rounds, when he actually fired only 4 times, directly at what he believed were threats to his life.

Rittenhouse has been vilified by both the media and democrats without valid reason. If anyone can look at the video of the incidents and not understand that they are almost picture-perfect examples of self-defense, that person is either a liar or an idiot. Speaking of idiots, who in their right mind would attack a person armed with a long rifle shouting out that he is a friendly? Hate to say it, but sometimes culling the herd is not always a bad thing. Nick Sandman, the high schooler who was confronted by a drum beating Native American activist in Washington, DC, was also vilified by the media. He sued for defamation and the media paid out over $100 million to settle the cases. Here’s hoping that Rittenhouse follows Sandman’s lead. Let’s hope that the reckless disregard of the truth is finally put to bed or that enough people maligned and lied about, sue them into non-existence. If we fail to understand that the Left is engaged in the pursuit of destroying our Constitutional Republic and that the mainstream media and democrat party are becoming increasingly aligned with the Left, our nation will fall. Just like Tass and Pravda spread communist propaganda in the Soviet Union, our mainstream media mirrors the same tactics.

On Saturday, November 20th, 2021, Darrell Brooks, a black man, drove his vehicle through a Christmas Parade in Waukesha, WI and mowed over 50 people, including children, killing 6. Vaun Mayes, a “Black Lives Matter” activist declared the following Monday, "But it sounds possible that the revolution has started in Wisconsin. It started with this Christmas parade." This is what our nation is becoming. This is what those who want to be “woke” are supporting. This is the enemy that will destroy us from within. To my democrat friends, is this what you signed up for and support? Is this what is best for our nation? Are you paying attention to what the leadership of your party is espousing? It is long past time to wake up and smell the roses. To the “woke” left and the useful idiots that support their inane ideology, you will be remembered in history as was the Emperor Nero, who fiddled as Rome burned except that you are actually stoking the fire.
