France defends its history because it has nothing else left to defend. Thats something worth noting when were tempted to treat our historical figures as secular saints.
The destroyers say that they are going to destroy a certain statute at a certain location. People go to protect said statute from the destroyers. The Police are called or sent. The arrive. Who do they arrest? The people protecting the statute. And yet there those on here that swear on their dying breath that the Police are on our side. They must be blind. The very purpose of the Police belays that lie. The Police are a part of the Government. The Executive Branch. The Police are the Enforcement Arm of the Government. They will do as their Masters direct.
So, yeah, Burt we [the Government is doing a hell of a lot. Only it is not as or what we expected. When will the General Public wise up? Probably never. Not even when they are sitting in the stockade surrounded by bard wire with a manned machine gun on each corner. Those who refuse to see. Won't see.
