The slogan should be, “if you loot, we shoot!”.

The last picture of Michael Brown is that of a thug, with underwear showing from his drooping pants, manhandling the store employee after his theft. That such a person should be hailed as a hero is a sure sign of a failed society.

Blacks are always complaining about "cultural appropriation" and I think they need to stop cornholing.

With each article Daniel makes the case against the left clearer. The single gravest danger to western culture is political leftism/liberalism/progressivism/Marxism/ and etc. Call it what you will. It most certainly is not progressive. It is, in fact, regressive and totalitarian.

If we are to survive as a nation and as a people we must rid ourselves completely of political Marxism. It has been a scourge on civilization since its inception. It seeks nothing less than the final destruction of freedom and liberty and the balkenization of nations into criminal enterprises.

As a child my daughter watched a 70's children's film, Dark Crystal, that captures the very essence of the struggle we are enduring. Worth a watch.

Good article. I do disagree with him on one point: looters DO follow rules.

Particularly those relating to self preservation.

Have a civilian store owner point a personally-owned AR15 at their face, and funny enough looters WILL stop looting. Cue the picture of those armed tatoo parlor owners defending, and successfully protecting their store.

Greenfield completely nails it. A definitive piece on the “violence” in Ferguson, Sanford, FL and ............

I agree with your assessment of the article and of the left. I don’t call the left Marxist or liberal etc., I call them common criminal thugs, bent on stealing our property and liberty until their jackboots are across our throats. They hide behind the labels they have conjured up and as you say there is nothing progressive about turning back the clock to the time of feudal societies.

This article should be a must read for the many soical libs here at FR who hate cops and their escalation towards being a military force.
 
Despite all the talk about the militarization of the police, there is very little discussion of why. The police and the prisons are a societal immune response to an infection.
 
~snip~
 
We don't have SWAT teams because law enforcement has gone completely insane. We have them because of race riots and urban guerrilla warfare. Without Watts, the Black Panthers and the SLA, the police militarization would probably never have existed. 
 
The militarization of the police was a response to left-wing violence and terror. And the left knows it.
 
And so do the libertarians. Yet they persist in their pro-drugs rhetoric and cop shoots dog threads.

Yep, scenes like that are a sure cure for racism.

I'd appreciate being added to your ping list. This is some of the most refreshingly honest common sense which I've read in a long time.

The enemedia provides an invaluable and key role to the enemies of this nation in providing its ideological underpinnings. If this nation is to survive, they must have their credibility destroyed and at least a few of them will have to suffer a fate similar to that of Julius Streicher.

This is one of THE BEST articles I have ever read on The Left.

That said, I have one complaint that relates to this writers excellent words. Freepers all make the same mistake as well and hopefully someday it will stop.

The use of the two words THE MEDIA does not NAIL the responsible parties!!! The parties responsible for THE MEDIA being able to inflict this damage on our country are THE STOCKHOLDERS of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC. NYT, LAT, WSJ and so on.

THE STOCKHOLDERS of these multi billion dollar companies wii surprise you if you take the time to look it up. Most of them are big companies and wealthy individuals. Some are household names that we all buy stuff from. These guys, gals and companies need to be called out on FR and ALL other forums and available media. Post their names, pictures and addresses. Boycott their companies! Make them feel some heat!!! Indict THEM!!!

As long as WE ALL keep referring to THE MEDIA instead of THE STOCKHOLDERS, we’re playing THEIR game and not much change is going to happen.
