Where has this come from? Why is it on the rise?
No, I am not without my own ideas as to why. What are yours though?
The Maxists, this is how they gain power? Guess how the stay in power and which useful idiots are first to go?
It’s a good question and there are so many answers.
Answer #1 must be Obama. He set race relations in the country back 50 years.
Then there is the entire Democrat party supporting minority “grievances” the past 30 years which caused the entitlement mentality which morphed into “hate whitey” and “blame whitey” for all the ills harbored by so many black Americans.
Then there is the entire public education establishment and the teachers’ unions. They have been pushing the anti-American, grievance, socialist, and entitlement narratives for two or three generations on impressionable young minds.
Then there is “higher ed” where “education researchers” must publish or perish. To get money, they must develop the next big thing in education research. All of the crap they invent flows down to K-12 public schools (the stories my sister tells me about this after 45 years teaching math are unbelievable). There is a lifecycle to worthless education fads of 3-5 years, then it’s on to the next big thing.
Of course, a lot of this started with FDR being the grandfather of the welfare state and its massive growth in the 60s with LBJ’s “Great Society.” That got rid of black fathers and created black women churning out as many babies without fathers as possible to suck off Uncle Sugar’s teat.
Lastly, the invention of cheap computers, smart phones, the Internet, optical communications, high bandwidth mobile communications, video cameras in every phone and social media combined to create a “Look at me - I’m an influencer” disaster. I remember when the “Information Superhighway” was going to bring all the world’s great works into all of our living rooms — nobody predicted all the social pathologies that would be unleashed by that combination of many technologies.
I’m sure there’s a lot more that could be said.
2 Timothy 3:1-9 “This also know, that in the last days perilous time shall come.
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
Traitors heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.”
So God’s Truth, His Word, speaks to exactly why this is taking place. Anyone who has chosen to completely divorce themselves from the Ways of the Lord Jesus Christ are going to be arms-open-wide being used by demonic forces and many go as far as to both welcome and worship it. It’s in the culture, it’s in the nausea-inducing curse-laden beats. It’s an insanity that floors you when you witness one of these sorts going after someone else behind a restaurant counter like a Pitt Bull.
It’s in the scare that hit me when at 6:30 AM one morning I heard a loud, sharp explosion that turned out to be a SWAT hit on a house just down the street from ours.
It was a drug making den, fentanyl mixed with some other substance.
I’ve seen this since my childhood in the 1960’s and the same monstrous mongrel murderous scurrilous mob exists today. The manifesto or ideology or whatever anyone wishes to name it is a product straight from the bowels of Hell, it existed before my birth and it is looking to destroy as many lives as it can. I don’t have to tell anyone that this is what has and what is attempting to and is destroying the lives of children in the local public school systems, the junior colleges and senior universities, turning them from what many parents saw their loving and giving young people when they gave them that big hug and kiss and sent them off to the classrooms and professor’s theatres into ogres and vipers that spew hatred.
That’s what Satan does. He steals, kills and destroys.
And especially, towards Jews and Christians. And towards anyone else that is an active duty or retired Veteran, a Patriot, a Conservative, anyone holding their child’s hand as they walk through the local zoo in the cool of the morning or watching them play baseball or football, or see a beautiful butterfly land on their hand as their mom pushes them in a stroller in the park.
There are ways to protect yourself and your babies and loved ones and friends from becoming victims. Get CCW trained and situational training. Situational awareness. Utilize technology such as GoPro. That would’ve probably caught the whole hit-and-run criminal activity and no need to put the family in danger to obtain a make and plate.
The woman had a gun in her hand and the man had his 14-year-old son taking video?! She could have shot both of them.
