Yes I agreed with everything that you state in your comments, but hear me out I am a Conservative Latina. I was one of the Original Minutemen on the Arizona/Mexico border in 2005. I have testified before Congress on how illegal immigration is destroying America etc etc etc. The leftist show up at our City council and County Board meetings. Our side sits in front of the TV and watches the news and other crap. I can’t tell you since 2005 the amount of council meetings I have attended. The left gets illegal aliens show up with their 5 children and fill the chambers. There is a cost to Freedom. Many of the Conservative rank and file voters Do Not want to pay that price of having their comfortable little lifestyle disrupted. And so IT goes.... Strong men make good times, Good Times make weak men. Weak men make hard times. Hard Times make Strong men.

It’s not a simple equation. I think the right would be willing to take action if there was a chance it would yield a positive result. Republican politicians, in general, are gutless, self interested cowards, who likely dislike their conservative base as much as Dems dislike conservatives. So, if we take action, the cost is much higher than the cost the left faces when they act. BLM and antifa burn down cities with support from media, Dem politicians, and not much pushback from Republicans. Conservatives dare to go to school board meetings, or demonstrate on January 6th, and they are jailed with next to no support from Republican politicians.

When to act? What will be the cost? What is the likely result?
