It volition likely non survive intelligence to the Gentle Readers of Liberty’s Torch that the Left has openly embraced violence. The procedure is already good advanced, having started earlier the 2016 presidential election. But I mean value it deserves a footling to a greater extent than explanation than it’s received to date.
You see, inwards Twenty-First Century America violence every bit a political tactic is unlikely to work. I know, I know: What close the Brownshirts as well as Blackshirts? What close Hugo Chavez’s tearing suppression of dissent inwards Venezuela? Yes, those are cases inwards which violence worked real well. But depository fiscal establishment complaint that they took house nether circumstances quite different from those that apply inwards the US today:
- A disarmed populace;
- A regime of censorship as well as stiff command of the volume media;
- A regime that supported the violence as well as refused to deed against it.
The American citizenry is the exact reverse of disarmed. While our volume media are aligned amongst the Left as well as unlikely to utter sick of its tactics, the Internet is proving to survive a to a greater extent than than adequate counterforce. Finally, the federal authorities is currently aligned against the tearing ones; should the attacks continue, the Trump Administration is probable to deed to stop them forcibly as well as to punish their promoters as well as organizers. Taken together, these things strongly advise that the Left’s role of violence volition boomerang on it, costing the Democrats heavily inwards the midterm elections as well as resulting inwards large scale opprobrium against those of its luminaries who’ve offered the vandals as well as thugs aid as well as comfort.
However, the Left has exhibited a streak of self-damaging insanity for some time. When a tactic rebounds on them, they produce it to a greater extent than as well as harder. And only now, their overall tactic tin flame survive reduced to throwing things:
- First, they threw allegations of diverse depression motives: racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.
- Then they threw accusations of wrongdoing: collusion amongst the Russians, teenage sexual hijinks, etc.
- Now they’re throwing physical items, including rocks, fists, as well as Molotov cocktails.
Present trends continuing, nosotros tin flame await the Left to graduate to throwing people. In that case, sentry out for your children, folks. Being smaller as well as lighter than most adults, they’d survive the Left’s projectiles of choice.
But all levity to the side, this is genuinely expert intelligence for us inwards the Right. The Leftist loonies are heavily outnumbered past times the expert folks, as well as the expert folks are, past times as well as large, non beingness intimidated. Indeed, physical responses to the Left’s attacks convey been making the intelligence lately...and the Left has been crying foul through their media mouthpieces. (“They weren’t supposed to struggle back!”)
While the media convey been touting a “blue wave,” as well as progressive icons such every bit Nancy Pelosi convey likened what’s coming to a “tsunami,” the rumbles inwards the webs (and on the Web) advise the opposite. At the federal level, the GOP is probable to concur roughly its electrical current bulk inwards the House as well as compass seats inwards the Senate. At the terra firma as well as local levels, I would await the tendency of Republican potency to continue. And at the purely popular-opinion level, Americans volition boot the bucket on to motion Rightward every bit they sentry the Left descend into rubber-room insanity for the Right’s unforgivable criminal offence of ousting them from power. Ever to a greater extent than volition #WalkAway from the Hillary Clintons, the Eric Holders, as well as the other spokesmen for “incivility.”
Well, that’s plenty feel-good chatter for the moment. Now I convey to become out to the barn, construct clean the lawn tractor, as well as set it inwards storage for the autumn as well as wintertime months. Thanks to the generosity of a local vendor I’ve known for to a greater extent than than 30 years, I straightaway convey a tractor jack amongst which to elevator the BLEEP!ing affair as well as then I tin flame larn far plenty nether it to produce a proper job. Wish me luck.
