This was truly a grass roots demonstration.
Compare what we witness yesterday with the countless “occupy” demonstration. Which group represents America?
The left control most media outlets, they attempt to shape the arguments with a known bias supporting one view point.
The “silent” majority are seldom consulted and even when they attempt to push back the left’s agenda (like in California through the proposition route) the left courts overturn their votes.
What we are living through today is nothing new in history.
Tyrants only respect one view point and they use the full force of the government to enforce that viewpoint, silencing any who oppose it.
What history shows is that force can silence oppositions but it is not the same as convincing others your view is the correct one.
Nation’s living under tyrants are under great pressure, eventually they explode.
One of the great things about how our founding fathers set up our constitution was the provision for making changes via amendments.
Amendment process is slow and difficult, and for a good reason. It takes a consensus of public opinion to change the constitution. However the left over the past 100 year in seeking their Utopia has short circuited that process via the courts.
Many major changes in our society have been made by the courts not by the proper process.
Hasn’t anyone ever wonder why after the Civil War it took a constitutional amendment to free the slaves? The legislatures nor the courts had the power.
Yet the courts today change at will long established boundaries within our nation regardless of what the will of the people really is.
This will eventually cause a revolt. First in the ballot box, but if the elections are rigged and the people’s vote nullified, then elsewhere.
I believe we are coming to the end game in the march to utopia. Regardless who wins, our nation will change when it is all said and done.
Very well put.
Is it possible that the Court system could stand some serious disinfecting?
