And so it is that America finds itself at war with itself – at war with its past and its present, fighting against its founders and its protectors.

A war that could only be fomented and embraced by America’s enemies, its enemies within.

Because only an enemy philosophy could take America’s first and most fundamental declaration – “that all men are created equal” – and turn it into a weapon of division, instead of its natural role as a uniter of causes and people.

Nearly all the ones doing the canceling, rioting, and other nonsense are 20-something whites. They are the scourge of the nation.

America is NOT at war with itself......it’s at war with obvious anti-American groups and infiltration of enemies of our nation...within and without.

What we’re seeing is ‘exposure’ of who they are.

Is America going the route of Hitler? Hitler was not elected before he seized power. The Democrats are currently running a candidate who is mentally incompetent, but the rest of the field is so radical they can’t win. The Democrats are clearly looking to fill the VP spot with a radical that will have a degree of immunity from criticism like Obama. I have no doubt if Biden wins, we will have an appointed president who will be extremely radical, and the left does not intend to make the same mistake they made when Trump was elected, there may never be another free election.

Lost the chance to educate that the flag represents the opposite of racism.

and the good people sat home, nervous, anxious, apprehensive, the way a mouse is in the moments before a cat sinks its fangs into it.

One huge difference between them and us, they were not armed, did not have a history of defying the state, and put all their faith into the state.

There are a whole lot of armed Americans, who do have a history of defying their state, and only put their faith in God and their family.

And it only takes a small percentage of those to actually do something, and the wheels of this anarchy will fall off their little red wagon. Solzhenitsyn brought it up in the Gulag Archipelago and the Revolution proved it.

Well, I’ve seen estimates that only 1 in 5 of protestors are black. I dunno if that’s true, but it pretty much matches up with what I’ve seen online. Maybe ‘nearly all’ is an exaggeration but it sure is a lot.

Those ‘visually leading’ these protestors are blacks....equally those using mega-phones to keep the mob riled up.

Rather, the media is at war with America. It’s an old conflict.

The American Left and the Democrats are at war among themselves. And the Republicans are just about entirely AWOL in this major scrap.

All the major battlegrounds are in largely or completely liberal Democrat strongholds, in the cities or some entire states. The sharpest confrontations are between the Antifa/BLM rioters against the hapless municipal police forces who get NO moral support or freedom to carry their duties as keepers of the peace, and are now faced with being defunded altogether by the surrender monkeys who sit in the city councils and state legislatures, or act as the mayors or governors. Now these emboldened rioters are swarming out to localities far from their present venues.

This may not end well.

IIRC Hitler came to power legally.

“Legally,” but he was appointed, not elected. The Nazis’ high-water mark in free elections was in the summer of 1932. Hitler was appointed chancellor at the end of January, 1933. There were no truly-free elections in Germany from that point forward until after the war.

True to a point, but, to the other point he didn’t seize power...at least initially.

True, he was appointed to appease his radical NAZI base, similar to what Democrats seem to be doing with the VP slot. He then seized power after Hindenburg died.

Even then his moves after being appointed as Chancellor were technically "legal" at the time.

And to be clear....I'm in no way defending the guy. The point is sometimes the bad guys come to power legally....then they start doing the really bad stuff.

I have seen numerous violent riots on TV that appear to be 100% white college age types...brimming with modern angry radfems.

“In America, the voice of the people isn’t heard in the streets, it is heard at the ballot box.”

That’s the big fear. Better than the bullet box....but their call.

Those anarchists aren’t Americans. They’re products of foreign money and influence.
