The enemy operates in full audacity mode 24/7/365, *knowing* that peaceful, civilized people prefer to be kind and gracious to others and simply wish to live productively and in peace.
The true heirs to the land of liberty are those who are naturally law-abiding and thus don't "need a law" to behave appropriately and responsibly. The locusts, however, only know the way of aggression and destruction through mass numbers in order to ravage and desolate and strip the harvest by force.
Remember what Amalek did.
“...The locusts, however, only know the way of aggression and destruction through mass numbers in order to ravage and desolate and strip the harvest by force...”
And every once in a while, peaceful, civilized people will use insect spray to stop the locusts. History has shown that this eventually happens, when good, decent folks have had enough.
