How do I balance my views of personal liberty with current republican policy
26/01/2026 | godguy687

Posted on 01/26/2026 7:34:25 PM PST by godguy687

I'm losing faith in republicans to be completely honest, I believe in "Liberal Democracy" I mean people should have the freedom to choose and elect what is they system and political alignment that best suits their values and worldview having a goon squad shoot American citizens is nowhere near what my values are I am a conservative, I believe in Person responsibility, governance by consent, limited government control over personal legal enterprise and entrepreneurship

what is they system

I believe that THIS is the most poignant, important question of our day. Perhaps in two millennia has not a more significant and thought-provoking question been asked

Of course I also believe that robots 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖 are stealing my luggage 🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳


I beseech each of you, in your own way, to ask yourselves:

what IS they system?

You look away because you obviously don’t have a stomach for reality. We are in a war for the survival of our society. We are winning because of our collective understanding that winning a war means doing things that HAVE to be done. That doesn’t include all who should be on our side so pick a side - communist rule after your implied tactics that don’t work or freedom which is sometimes gained and kept with violence.

I think it is time for groups like the Hells Angels to start rolling through these towns. Just need to separate a few from the leftist herd, beat the crap out of them and all of this will stop.

You need to take a civics class. You were brainwashed by liberals to think mob rule is good. That is just Might is Right, and a well armed minority can take you out.

The goon squads are the liberals organized against our nation. These are not organic protests, they are organized insurgents.

That is what happens as a result of losing elections. I am talking about the STEAL
And who is in on it.

“… goon squad shoot American citizens is nowhere…”
************************************************

You need to expose yourself to more than just “mainstream news” and its leftist narratives. IMHO, of course.

“ There are no goon squads going out to shoot American citizens and you are a fraud.”

On the nose.

He’s stupid or a troll.

“having a goon squad shoot American citizens is nowhere near what my values are”

Your “values” are screwed up. You left out the part that the “American citizens” who were shot were threatening the lives of the shooters (and others).

Boy, I feel sorry for your family members who might consider depending on you for protection some day. Imagine having a daddy or a husband who’s a milquetoast weenie. Sheesh.

(And you really should brush up on Third Grade grammar, syntax, and punctuation if you expect to be taken seriously.)

Trending that way. But I've watched it from the time I saw Sherman tanks and Jeeps and DUKW vehicle on New York Central flatcars going off to Europe for WWII, through Korea, and Viet Nam, and the crumbling of USSR, and all the changes along the way until now when we've imported our conquerors by command of a senile President's orders.

Through the years I have done the best I could, and have many others do the same, with all their heart and mind and energy, which is our duty to our God, our Savior, our children. But our tolerance of wickedness has been too great. The times are more perilous than ever for our our society, the last stage before the Lord's wrath to be exercised as never before.

"If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3 KJV). What we have done has been to to presume our national successes have been based on the efforts of a majority of "good" people.

That is a demonstrably false presumption. America, like everywhere else, is a nation of depraved sinners born that way, every one; needing to be changed by admitting it and yielding to God in complete trust, born anew through complete submission to the Christ of the Bible for Providential protection, as did a sufficient portion of our Founding Fathers to rest on God's Holy Infallible Scriptures of Absolute Truths for both standards of morality and principles of law.

We have not followed their example, hiding behind relativism and tolerance of evil, rejecting the Founders' approach. So that has brought us where we are now, with foundations in the process of being destroyed while we only try to restore the upper structure of the culture.

It is very clear what we each should do, every one. Will we?

It’s interesting to note what datarepublican (small r) found regarding the donors to fund the group behind the Signal chats organizing with local police, the lt governor, MN legislators, Walz, etc. which Pretti belonged to and which threatened James O’Keefe: Many of them are foreign, including Canadians. In the messages when it was clear the group had been penetrated and outed, somebody talked about having Cuban connections. This fits totally with Diosdada, the leader of the Venezuelan govt’s hit-mob Cartel del Sol being seen handing $20 million to the co-founder of BLM right before the George Floyd riots.

And just a couple days ago Hillary Clinton posted to urge people to donate to the group behind this illegal, well-organized and government-aided group.

This is not-so-clandestine-any-more war on the USA by outside forces working with treasonous people within our country.

Maybe those who drunk post, e.g., the OP, get a pass when it comes to their unintelligible ramblings ...?

refused a lawful order to disperse
obstructed justice
resisted arrest

Then during the melee and chaos of resisting arrest his concealed weapon was discovered which led to a split second decision by federal agents which resulted in the guys death.

Those are the facts.

None of that matters. The bearded nurse put himself in harm’s way; it’s 100% on him.

I disagree. There are goon squads. They are Democrats helping illegal aliens, who in turn, murder, rape, and steal from the US. The good squads have whistles and are part of a color revolution that are useful tools to destroy the US.
