The arrests may not begin if We The People do not rise to demand the end to the lockdown. They are trying to delay the lawful exposure of the criminals until after the election. The courts must be allowed to function for that to happen.
I think we always have an important role to play. President Trump and otehrs help, but the administration cannot investigate/hold the trials/get convictions during lockdown, and can't override Governors without being accused of creating a constitutional crisis. The U.N. is waiting in the wings for the Swamp to claim that the republic has fallen and our president has gone rogue.
It seems We The People have been domesticated by the Left. As conservatives we believe in small government, but the comments of distress on Twitter and elsewhere re lockdowns call to the federal government to control and manage the states on our behalf as if the Left's model of Big Government is needed to function.
We have lost the Spirit of '76.
The Left is using power originally given to us via State's Rights to abuse us. The idea behind State's Rights was that We The People would be obeyed by our state government and so our wishes would be done. But the Left is using the States as the Big Government "ruler" over us, as if we aren't competent enough to rule ourselves.
The Right seems to be waiting for the federal government to assume the ultimate power the Left always wanted to give it "to protect us". What happens if the federal government retains that power after President Trump leaves office?
Our primary obligation to rip public/financial/legal/social support out from under those who refuse to serve us is left untouched, as we wait for the federal government to save us. If Trump does try to "save us" now, the states, the MSM etc. abusing us can say he does not represent the will of the people as expressed to our state representatives, officials etc. Those bad actors will be saying it to the U.N.
I think I glimpse the attitude that will lead us out of the fake reality we're living in, where facts doesn't matter, only the Dems interpretation of it is allowed to rule, in the post by magglepuss regarding families not permitted to visit elderly parents in care homes:
I think most have realized by now how foolish this all is. The nursing home staff, includes cooks, dishwashers, floor cleaners, nurses, dr. , laundry detail, etc. They are all free to come and go, but visitors put folks at risk? yeah right. Who knows where these workers were between shifts.
I say just go visit and tell them to pound sand. If they threaten to arrest, then we will know to stop supporting the folks threatening to arrest.~magglepuss
The compliance we're engaging in is largely voluntary. Lately I've been thinking that the Covid-19 lockdowns remind me of horse training, wherein by slow degrees an untamed horse is taught to tolerate first the halter, then ropes, then being lead with ropes, then a bridle, then a saddle pad, then an empty saddle, then a saddle with partial weight, and then a life under saddle.
We must get the Spirit of '76 back if we are to save ourselves.
