THE PROBLEM: MOB RULE

 Yes, Gentle Readers, we have hesitated to post lo these many days because of the relentless shower of - words fail us - shit that has been happening in these United States.  We have thought long and hard about what is the common thread that runs through this national horror in which we find ourselves in the midst of.  

We have a weak as water "President" who has undertaken to invite anyone who wants to enter via our Southern border to just come in; and when this became an obvious catastrophe tried to back off and say he didn't really mean it - except that he did - and tried to fob the whole unsightly dangerous mess on President Trump. 

"President" Joe Biden has nominated and pushed through woefully inadequate and cartoonish sexual perverts to key Cabinet positions; such as homosexual Pete Buttigeg, former Mayor of the City of South Bend, Indiana as Secretary of Transportation (though he couldn't even fill potholes adequately); and one "Dr," Rachel Levine who was born male but who insists everyone call him a female as Assistant Secretary of Health and Human Services. 

When the police find it needful to use firearms or force to keep the peace, woe betide them if the person they find it needful to forcibly pacify is black.  That person automatically becomes a saint.  One Michael Brown tried to take a police officer's firearm and was justifiably shot to death, and winds up being described as a "gentle giant" even though minutes before he had executed a force and violence robbery of an Asian shopkeeper to obtain cigar leaves in which to roll "blunt" marijuana cigarettes.  In response a mob burned Ferguson, Missouri to the  ground.

Memorably, in Minneapolis, Minnesota t two-bit fentanyl soaked hoodlum named George Floyd tried to pass a fake bill at a convenience store.  It fell to a white Minneapolis cop named Chauvin to apprehend him.  Floyd was EXTREMELY uncooperative during the entire encounter, which ended with Officer Chauvin kneeling on his neck to control him (Which by the way may very well have been Hoyle with MPD regulations). 

Minneapolis exploded with mob rioting. And there is serious doubt as to whether he can get a fair trial just based on the nationwide passions which have been stirred by this incident. 

Somewhere in the middle of this a coronavirus set off a worldwide pandemic.  Businesses were closed, restaurants went out if business and everyone was ordered to wear face masks to "Stop the spread".  The narrative was passed around that mask wearers were protecting others from their ability to spread the virus, thus setting off a situation where mask-wearers were enabled to self-righteously denigrate those who did not wear a mask.  In multiple incidents, punches were thrown. 

Then in Seattle, Washington and Portland, Oregon mobs rioted and were allowed   to raise hell for months on end. They shot explosive fireworks at the Federal Courthouse in Portland and tried to lock police officers in a precinct house in Seattle and BURN IT DOWN WITH THE OFFICERS TRAPPED INSIDE!  How did the media describe these hoodlums?   AS "MOSTLY PEACEFUL PROTESTERS".  In a pig's eye, they were.  

Then came the riots - ditto described as "mostly peaceful protests" - RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE WHITE HOUSE ON PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE NORTHWEST.  At one point the "peaceful protestors" undertook to ASSAULT THE WHITE HOUSE prompting the Secret Service to usher the First Family into a bunker designed to withstand a nuclear attack.  

Now, Supreme Court justices must take into account that the mob will pay them and their families an unwelcome and possibly deadly visit should they rule "the wrong way".  Ditto individual Congressmen and Senators.  And the violent mob has so far almost killed Republican representative Steve Scalise and Dr. Rand Paul just for their views.  

How long are we going to put up with this nonsense?
