“First They Came For The Confederates And I Did Not Speak Out… ”
MOTUS ^ | 6-20-20 | MOTUS

Whoever thought Tucker Carlson would be the one to blow the lid on “Republicans ‘R Not Us” and Conservative Inc.? Certainly not me. Of course I never expected Donald Trump to be the man to call out the Deep State either. But as the great bard noted, “some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.”

 

As his guest Ned Ryun pointed out, “you can’t defeat religious zealots with careerists waiting to collect their next paycheck.”

The Maoist Cultural Revolution has arrived on our shores and Republicans have already surrendered.

A statue of George Washington with a burning American flag draped across it was toppled by protesters in Portland, Oregon on Thursday nightA statue of George Washington with a burning American flag draped across it was toppled by protesters in Portland, Oregon on Thursday night

God help us.

Important Note: I received an email on behalf of long time MOTI but infrequent commenter, Boo, this morning. She had a friend forward this info:

“I am in Kaiser ICU with a brain bleed.  I have a subdural drain which will be removed tomorrow, Saturday, to make certain that the blood has drained out.  They’ll perform another CT scan on Sunday to reevaluate.  Hopefully, it’s clear and no further neuro-surgery will be required.”

I’m certain she would appreciate your prayers. If anyone wishes to contact her email me as she also forwarded a phone number.

Last night in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, statues of Father Serra, General Grant, and Francis Scott Key were pulled down and destroyed.

What did these three men have in common, other than they were white?

Dark times ahead.

Bosnia X Rwanda.

We cannot wait any longer for our “leaders” to mount an offense against this tidal wave of communism. Stand and fight where you are. And another thing,call this dark curtain falling around us what it is... Communism!

It is way past time to begin meeting these animals with appropriate force.

I’m amazed that there’s literal Bolshevist mobs destroying everything and people here are quibbling about whether or not a statue is worth it because it depicts a Republican or not.

What did they have in common?

Well - the Fr. Serra was for American Indians and their plight against Colonialism.

Grant of course was against the South in the Civil War, which in due course ended slavery.

And Francis Scott Key, while a slave-holder; “He freed his slaves in the 1830s, paying one ex-slave as his farm foreman. He publicly criticized slavery...”

So I guess what they had in common was sticking up for the minorities in America???

Or - that none of them were black.

Or - they all had a statue in the same park. Punks cooped up for the winter, and then Covid-19; needed some way to release their tension and energy. So - the statues were an easy target, which they knew they wouldn’t get punished for.

I release my tension at the gun range.

This whole episode was in the planning stage 2 years ago - I worked with a guy (my company hired him) who was an organizer and motivational speaker for Antifa.

He told me of his burning hatred for this country (my stomach was churning my rage held in check my hand firmly in my pockets as I didn’t want to lose my job over this creep).

He said when the time is right they would act and destroy the country. Now they have. (The guy was fired a few weeks later).

‘First they came for the Jews, but I wasn’t a Jew so I didn’t speak out’

When they came for the Confederate statues we Southerners knew that was a bridge too far.........but many of you here agreed with it

‘They’’ were just testing to see what they could get away with.....
....and they got away with it.

Now it’s game on for any perceived grievance .......Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Columbus, etc

It’s also game on towards you.....and me......and our children.....and our grandparents....
Any of us who speak out will be rolled over!
But we have to do it!
Or we’re lost
It appears civilization is holding on by a very thin thread.

Last night I watched these statues coming down and was sickened, literally.
I saw murderous savage faces on these people. They were not protesting the meaning of a bronze image, they were a mob, killing and burning the society they have been taught to hate. They are being allowed to do it, which is a green light to terror. We are in trouble, because the longer this goes on, the bigger and more organized the mob becomes.

“It appears civilization is holding on by a very thin thread.”

Civilizations can be miles wide. But they’re never more than a couple of inches deep.

Wait till Trump is re-elected. These communist revolutionaries are pikers, compared to what might come then. Keep your powder dry.

God help us.

We are actually at this point. Can you imagine what the slightest bit of push back now from pretty much anyone, and I do mean anyone, military, militia, citizen protection squad, much less police will give the media. I can see it now overnight some night a citizen militia lays out forty Antifa over a statue, and the manure will hit the fan unlike any manure has ever hit the fan. The military will be set on whitey and the right. I can’t even contemplate what’s next, maybe we get lucky and get GITMO.

I believe you had a solution expressed on the radio a couple of days ago, and if I mentioned it you might have to kill me.
