What have we wrought?
Coach is Right ^ | 8/16/15 | John C. Velisek USN (Ret.)

I have read numerous comments online and in the press about how Obama, New York Mayor Bill Deblasio and race baiter Al Sharpton are to blame for the protests and the shooting of two NYPD officers. We are told that the shooter was empowered by what had happened to “gentle giant” Michael Brown in Ferguson and Eric Garner in New York City.

A few facts first:

1. Bassem al-Masri, a Palestinian terrorist who had been to the White House as an advisor, has taken control of the local mobs. 2. In New York, the protests-those that have been violent-have been organized by Revcom, the Revolutionary Communist Party. Their sole purpose is to instigate revolution in the United States, something the socialists have tried to do since the late 19th century, its torch being handed to urban minorities. 3. Race baiter Al Sharpton has deigned to allow that not all police are bad and we as law abiding citizens are supposed to applaud him for this profound qualification. 4. Joshua Williams, a poster child held up by the community and blacks in the area of St. Louis, confessed to setting fires at the QuikTrip.

Are our country and its culture being deliberately torn down? Will there be an even greater divide between those that have and those that want? And who is responsible?

It would be easy to say that the Big Three-Obama, DeBlasio, and Sharpton-are responsible. And for a good part they are. Obama is dividing the people in this country in so many ways. Deblasio is telling his son to fear the police. And Sharpton, where to start with Uncle Al? Freddie’s Fashion Mart, Tawana Brawley or Anti-semitism. And to think he is an advisor to the President?

I trace responsibility to the 1960s when Democrats...

Much of this goes as far back as the time just after the Civil War (AKA the War of Northern Aggression) when the tenets of Marxism first began to appear on the political scene in America. It picked up steam with Woody Wilson in the aftermath of WW1. Since then, after faltering a bit during the Depression when the Communists thought they had a shoo in, there has been a steady march leftward,accelerated by Johnson’s “Great Society” and the aftermath of Vietnam when the left leaning protesters melted into academia and in effect poisoned the well of freedom. Wars have always had a destructive effect on human behavior.

During and after World War 1 the Marxists fled to America, bringing with them the world’s fist “think tank.” Their purpose was to bring about cultural Marxism because economic Marxism had failed to make the workers revolt. They chose as the new revolutionaries what we today call the protected class of diversity hounds. They settled into academia and developed political correctness and other thought control tools. They have been astonishingly successful.

Incidentally, they set out to destroy the existing culture but I’m not aware of any replacement they offered.

“Much of this goes as far back as the time just after the Civil War...” (AKA The War Between The States).

I believe it goes further back than that. Seems to me that when the Democrats lost the Presidential election of 1860, they had a hissy fit and tried to dissolve the United States. So far as I know all or the majority of the Confederate State governments were run by folks who were Democrats before the War. The Northern Democrats and Copperheads (Democrats) were against the War. Looks to me like Democrats/Socialists/Marxists/leftists have been striving for the destruction of the United States since sometime before 1860.

It means two things:

1. Sometime last April my Tagline became scrambled.

2. I should check or change my Tagline at least occasionally.

It's supposed to read:

Blessed be those who know the depth and breadth of their ignorance. Cursed be those who don't.

Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
