The riots have had their effect.  Now people are afraid to prosecute criminals out of fear of mob revolt.  For the entire year of 2020, we have been subjected to Marxist mob rule.  We are still wearing masks and prohibited from social gatherings, particularly anything traditional or Christian.  Big business is essential, small business is capitalism which is to be thrown out now.  In order to rule us, we must be powerless, and every effort to usurp the power of the people into the government's hands has been employed.  It is obvious to anyone who can see.

Are we going to let this stand? (!!)

Hanging question marks on things long taken for granted is what I do!  ;-)  (Why?)

I think the process of searching for the lies I tell myself is the most difficult and the most liberating.  'Fessing up to others is the real challenge.  Some things cannot be ignored — they are either dealt with or added to the baggage, which takes a toll.  Best to go "all the way."

The search for truth is inevitably the revealing of untruth.  There is no way to liberation from the bondage of lies but by the truth.  That's essentially all there is to do.  Tell the truth tempered with love, because the truth is like a sword.  Have no doubt, "going all the way" is a battle!

Inaccurate, Don. Protecting the borders is indeed part of the government's policing "acting as an agent of man's self-defense."  The government was chartered to protect the rights of the People, from county, to state, to nation — borders included.

I like the lumberman story!  It should be a Golden Book. ;-)

Umm, no, not one bit.  Social engineering is NOT what we chartered a representative government for.  Sheesh!

The Biden's have made a family fortune ever since Joe took office.  So too the Pelosi's, Feinstein's, and so many more on both sides of the aisle having become multi-millionaires.  In case you didn't know, there is a lot of money to be made in politics, and some people go into it for that very reason!  Fascism is alive and well in the US government. Trump is independently wealthy and cannot be bought.  The snakes have been squirming ever since the light has been shone on them.

That's exactly what happened, Warren, right you are.

Ha!  Obama presided over the greatest economic crash since the Great Depression.  It was no surprise to anyone other than democrats (who don't really care about economics anyway).

No we didn't, Jim, not at all.  ;-)

Absolutely true!  I only hope Barr intends to do something about it...

2020, the year of licentiousness — i.e. anarchy.

Brilliant and beautiful!  "No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions."

From an Age of Reason.  Renaissance, anyone?

Another reason I believe every American upon coming of age should be given the choice to sign the Declaration of Independence.  Those that do will have a part in the electing of representatives.  Those that don't will still be treated as children and wards of the State — they would not be eligible for voting on representatives because only a republican form of government is permitted in these Unites States, and our representatives are to be representative of a sovereign people, not would-be subjects of a Crown.  In a free republic, no one is permitted to be a slave — even if they want to be. ;-)

70 million people are not a remnant.  ;-)  Just piss them off and see.  (It's coming.)

Can you imagine the likes of George Washington representing Americans today? (!!)

Too true!

Suicide is a choice to kill oneself.  Abortion is a choice to kill another — the baby is given NO choice.

Effective at what?  Ushering in socialism?

Wow, we've come a long way, baby!

I wholeheartedly agree with Adams, but I am a bit torn as even Adams admitted:

"All good government is and must be republican. But at the same time, you can or will agree with me, that there is not in lexicography a more fraudulent word... Are we not, my friend, in danger of rendering the word republican unpopular in this country by an indiscreet, indeterminate, and equivocal use of it?"

Truer even now in the age of identity politics.  Who do you think you are? ;-)

We must stand up!  You and I!  It's long past due!  We've got the hounds on the run!
