Giddy or not shocked that this is where we are?
Yesterday was shameful. But as I said yesterday, we didn’t get here overnight.
We could start with the “peaceful” movements of the 60’s featuring Weather Underground with Bill Ayers and his bombings. But let’s stick with the more recent:
We have seen years of abuses such as storming the Wisconsin Capital while it was in session and shutting it down, Code Pink infiltrating the Senate and threatening and intimidating Senators, GOP congressmen being shot, our cities burned in the name of resistancevamd social justice and on and on. Oh and not to mention that the Dems have objected to past GOP presidential wins.
We have a two tiered system of outrage and worse, criminal justice. And participating it only dumps gas on the fire. It only further alienates and enrages those who are subject to it.
So while yesterday was a shameful act, those who now decry it while having remained silent or allowed themselves to be silenced when shameful actions were taking place over the last decades are themselves shameful. They are eager participants in the Orwellian new order.
They think this is a useful tool to kill off Trump and his movement. Perhaps they are correct. But their rank hypocrisy is turning whatever victory they (and I mean Crenshaw and the rest of the GOP) think they have into a hollow one. The GOP died yesterday and just doesn’t realize it yet.
Yup, plenty of “shameful” actions to go around. Ye sir, we didn’t arrive at our Capital being stormed overnight.
Thanks for your insight. I agree with much of what you wrote. Take care.
