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.
