Activists prepare to storm DC in Independence Day weekend protests
Washington Examiner ^ | July 3, 2020 | Nicholas Rowan

Protesters plan to storm Washington, D.C., over Independence Day weekend with protests and demonstrations.

Activists in the most high profile of these events plan to protest the Emancipation Memorial in Lincoln Park. The memorial, which leaders of the local collective the Freedom Neighborhood claimed they would topple last week, has become a subject of national interest, with many people making a case both for and against the statue. Glenn Foster, the leader of the Freedom Neighborhood, has promoted multiple protests against the memorial set for the days surrounding the July 4 weekend. In some of his material, he celebrated the fact that on Tuesday the Boston Arts Commission voted to remove an identical copy of the statue, which depicts President Abraham Lincoln freeing the slave Archer Alexander, from public display.

I posted this a couple of days ago. Fits here too:

Our traditions, that are very important indeed, are to celebrate Columbus Day in honor of the man most people in this Country see as having “discovered” America. History is often a bit hazy, and the days celebrated not an exact replica of the original events, but they are nevertheless very important to the traditions and customs of this Country and have been for years and years. If new U.S. hating immigrants from third world countries, dissidents, terrorists, anarchists, Muzzies, socialists, and general haters of our Country do not like the holidays this Country has chosen to honor, then they can get the hell out and find another host country with more freedoms than ours.

Such as one where they will have the freedom to choose their own holidays, maybe Black Lives Matter” Day, or erect a statue of George Soros. Good luck finding such a country. I want a “White Lives Matter” Day, but I’ll be dead before I ever see it. This Country fought a Civil War to end slavery, and that war was fought primarily by WHITE men. But the “original sin” of slavery, commonplace in the history of the world at that time, long after most prejudice has been wiped out in this Country, is still continually used as a cudgel against “Whitey” in order to obtain more and more privileges and perks. Many of them against poor white men and women who get lesser access to federal and state grants, loans and awards to White students at colleges, and have lost job opportunities only because they are White. My how the pendulum ever swings. How do you think minority overlords will treat a White minority, hmmm? The same way as those they continually accuse of prejudice now? You bet they will once in power. Payback time.

If all things on a resume are even only somewhat equal, the default is to hire the minority, regardless of skill sets. I know what I am speaking of here firsthand from where I worked (a major State University where I was involved with the hiring process in my Department; and also I was in the private sector for many years). Whitey is the endangered species here.

Blacks are about a 14% minority in this Country, but recently you would think they are an 80% majority. They aren’t, they never will be, and many hate that, along with many of them just hating Whites, period. Those Whites who have bent over backward to right wrongs over many years now. And do you know whom I blame for the current turmoil in the Black community?

It’s white communist/socialist elites stirring the pot, along with elitist tech companies infected by White guilt and the corrupt MSM, this year in particular because it is an election year and they hate Trump who has been busy overturning many of their Obama Admin socialist policies, rules and regulations, perks and freebies, and improving our economy to the best it ever has been prior to the coming of the Chinese Coronavirus.

Trump will do it again if his enemies’ numbers are not quite large enough as a voting block yet, or this Country’s recent demographics haven’t nullified the dreaded White man’s majority yet. That will happen soon enough, but maybe not quite yet, if Trump is lucky.

White elitists and anarchists jumped on the BLM bandwagon, hijacked it, and appealed to an irrational mindset among too many Blacks that there is systemic racism in this Country. But both the White elitists and BLM have pushed way too far, and the racism that had pretty much been eradicated will probably make a comeback because of the actions of this year’s illogical, irrational protesters afoot throughout our land, and the attempt by these domestic terrorists to destroy our customs, tear down our statues, and ruin our melting pot culture so they can remake our Country in their own commie/socialist image. They hate us.

I for one am sick to death of it, and I will arm myself and defend my personal castle and our Country’s traditions against these traitors and their brainwashed, stupid, emotionally based pea brain followers. May they all rot in their own personal versions of hell.

This once wonderful Country is on the precipice of internal destruction, one election away from being a socialist hellhole like Venezuela and Cuba. You need go no farther for examples of what socialist dictators can create in their versions of Utopia. Maybe this Country needs for Biden to win so they can get a bird’s eye view of how a thriving economy and culturally mature Country can go downhill in the blink of an eye.

If Biden wins, our way of life will be destroyed so quickly it will make one’s head spin. I’m older; I won’t be around that long to view much of the crumbling of our Country, but I feel very sorry for the younger generations who will suffer under the yoke of socialism/communism and a dictatorship of the Left, not by their choice.

Actually, the elitist Libs had better sleep with one eye open because the perpetually aggrieved minority, once in power, will come for them next.

The difference between BLM and the rest of the world is they see the black in the Emancipation statue as kneeling before Lincoln. People who have a brain see it as the black man rising from his knees to stand as a free man because of Lincoln.

Love the person, hate the sin. BLM and Antifa are being controlled by invisible powers of darkness. Generations of unforgiveness, bitterness, and hate have opened the door to demonic oppression.

Only the love of JESUS can set them free. The choice is theirs to make.

This weekend could be a disaster in DC. I hope it won’t be, but I am pessimistic.

It may be time to President Trump to take over the Country by activating the National Guard under Federal Government control and attacking the communists Democrat party using deadly force.

“...This Country fought a Civil War to end slavery...”

That’s a canard promulgated by government schools for decades in their brainwashing efforts.

The end of slavery was a byproduct of the Civil War...not the cause of it.

If the Marxists and the anarchists move to violence and attacking statues and burniing down buildings,they should be met with commensurate force and they should have many casualties. Patriots may have to do this if the political leadership will not.

I’ve seen variations on that riff elsewhere. Can’t really claim it as my own.

“Love the person, hate the sin. “

They are inseparable.
