Two more of America's finest have died way too young in the line of duty. More on that shortly, but first, let's contemplate the sickening context.
Millions of us who believe in God, personal accountability and individual liberty have been appalled, angry and aghast about the creeping cancer of progressivism. This malevolent philosophy is destroying families, communities, individuals, businesses and institutions. Each day we keep getting pounded by the relentless sledgehammer of the left.
The corrupt and incompetent Biden administration is chock-full of progressive true believers. I supposed it's a mixed bag of naive people with good intentions (No, they don't actually hate America); spiteful fanatics whose hatred of the founding fathers and traditional values make them into "disrupters," as Nancy Pelosi once put it, who stop just short of wanting us to become the next Venezuela; and downright Marxists / Trotskyites who abhor the United States and want to ramrod totalitarian, brutal communism down our throats (as long as they will be among the elitists living the high life).
Fortunately, tens of millions of Americans have common sense, know their history, and own firearms. The left must know -- if they don't, they're pathetically ignorant -- that for many decades, totalitarian governments have moved quickly to disarm the populace so that they can impose their censorship, torture, imprisonment and executions with impunity. Furthermore, the left must realize that those they would oppress (the "deplorables," in Hillary's words), are not ignorant simpletons. We know our history, and we are aware of the grave danger progressives represent to individual dignity and liberty.
Well, lefties, I'm sorry to tell you this, but there are between 300 and 400 million firearms out there within the borders of the United States. Good luck trying to fully implement your overbearing despotism. The truth is, this should never have to come down to freedom loving Americans resorting to arms to oppose government tyranny. The ballot box has been pretty effective (despite Democrat efforts to corrupt the voting process with banana republic style voting rules).
Last November, Republican Glen Youngkin defeated well-funded Terry McAuliffe in the Virginia gubernatorial election, 50.6 percent to 48.6 percent. In a BLUE state. The impetus was the local school boards trying to ramrod racist Critical Race Theory down parents' throats; trying to indoctrinate children with not just racist curricula, but also perverted LBGTQ propaganda that is guaranteed to confuse and depress young, emotionally vulnerable students who are grasping for a sense of reality and security.
The hard-left U.S. Department of Justice didn't help matters by accusing concerned parents who spoke out at school board meetings of being borderline terrorists and a grave threat to the republic. The over-the-top hack Attorney General Merrick Garland directed the FBI and DOJ to take a hard look at what goes on at local school board meetings, and crack down on alleged violent threats.
Virginia's voters responded with righteous indignation. And this common sense reaction has become more common across the fruited plains.
After the hideous 2020 riots, voters across the nation elected Republican members of Congress despite Joe Biden defeating Donald Trump in the presidential election. Local officials, such as San Francisco Prosecuting Attorney Chesa Boudin, were recalled from office. (His recall followed by a few months the February recall of three far-left members of the San Francisco Board of Education.)
For many months, San Francisco has been melting down with chaos, crime, homelessness, feces and used heroin syringes littering the ground, the smell of urine permeating many city streets. Relief may be on the way.
In Oregon last fall, voters decriminalized possession of small amounts of hard drugs such as heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and fentanyl. Consequently, there has been a breakdown in civilization, with homeless people strewn about, buying, dealing and using drugs. Law abiding citizens pay the price for uber woke virtue signaling by misguided prosecutors and council members.
In Los Angeles, a George Soros-supported, far left prosecutor named George Gascón has repeatedly given hardened criminals a slap on the wrist in the name of pie-in-the-sky "compassion." Recently, his lenient and naive treatment of scumbags brought about tragedy and heartache in the cold-blooded killing of two police officers in El Monte, a Los Angeles suburb.
Corporal Michael Paredes and Officer Joseph Santana responded to a call of a possible stabbing at a motel Monday evening. Upon arrival, a gunman opened fire on the officers. The gunman was a hardened criminal, 35-year-old Justin Flores, who had already served many years in prison on various felonies.
Flores had served two prison terms for burglary and car theft and pleaded no contest to possessing a firearm as a felon last winter. The weapons charge could have sent him back to prison for three years, but instead he was sentenced to two years’ probation and 20 days of time served by the insane leftist prosecutor. (A silver lining: The incorrigible piece of garbage Flores was killed in an exchange of gunfire.)
It is worth noting that the two victims are both Hispanic, as was their killer. Both officers were married fathers, which exacerbates the sadness. This, like so many other violent criminal acts occurring daily in our nation's cities, flies in the face of Joseph Robinette Biden's concocted, mendacious narrative that racist white men are primarily responsible for preying upon minorities. That the white rednecks represent the vast majority of perpetrators when it comes to the death of brown-skinned victims.
Like so much of the risible propaganda coming out of this reprehensible administration, this narrative is complete and utter bullshit -- a major insult to the intelligence of the American people. Fidel Castro and Joseph Stalin must be dancing in their graves, delighted with the horse shit coming out of Washington, D.C., and also emanating from the demonic pocketbook of George Soros' dark soul.
Satan is also doing the jig, as he's made major inroads and senses that the United States is dazed, staggering, and near collapse.
