This year the governments of cities, counties and states throughout the United States made it clear that they could:
Force their way into our businesses and alter how we run them
Force their way into our social events and how we conduct them
Force their way into our work places and how we produce in them
Force their way into our stores and how we shop in them
Force their way into our public discourse and how we conduct ourselves in it
Force their way into our churches and synagogues and how we worship in them
force their way into our doctors offices and how we converse with them and their staff
Force their way into our homes and dictate how we behave in them
Force their way into our holidays and how we celebrate them
force their way into our funerals and how we mourn our lost loved ones
force their way into our weddings and how we gather to bless them
Force their way into our heads with endless commercials played everywhere, all of the time to pound in their empty propaganda about safety while they let cities burn.
All the while daring anyone to complain about it…
And then they act as if the sun will refuse to shine because angry people forced their way into a government building. Say what you want about the act of those people but if you are among the weak willed, spineless, lily livered, tea sipping, milk sop, limp wristed, mewling, over grown hall monitor masses that couldn’t pump up enough will power to do more than post a pout meme and grumble under your breath throughout this forced entry of the government on your EVERYTHING you get an audience of nothing. Nothing.

Tbh all that “force would have dissipated in a blink if people would took their right seriously and just stand up/ignore. In actual numbers not just 1 in a million. As I saw around, plenty of force was actually applied by “helpful citizens” harassing others for mask wearing, coming into their face and shouting — so things that were even more desirable to avoid.
I couldn’t agree more.
Regardless of what happened with the crowds yesterday, the Democrats and their Republican cronies were going to do what they did, anyway.
Whittle’s recriminations of those people really torqued me off, because I felt like he’s blaming those people for the tyranny about to be visited upon all of us by modern feudalists.
This is like saying the Founders brought the British down upon themselves. They didn’t. Like many of the well-meaning people at the Capitol yesterday, they petitioned their government for months – for YEARS – to treat them better as citizens of their own country. They tried to be law-abiding. They considered themselves loyal British subjects.
I only just joined as a member tonight, and I did it because I’m worried the Whittle is wrong about changing all of this through a grass roots political effort. I think we’re WAY past that point, and we’ve been past it since long before yesterday.
I want Whittle’s efforts to succeed, but I’m expecting an escalating violent conflict.
I would love to see peace prevail. It would be the most wonderful news I have had the pleasure of hearing in decades if suddenly decency broke out and crowds clashed in heartfelt bear hugs…
But that is Disney-fied, backward stupidity.
The ruthlessness of the left has been on display for years. They rob, ruin, and kill. That’s their MO. That’s it. That’s all. End of story.
I am not advocating murder and mayhem, I am stating openly that the left DOES advocate this VERY openly and the hot shot, high tower, preening types pretend that every last man of us is now saddled with the act of a minuscule fraction of people that did to the government what the government has CEASELESSLY done to us.
I was not in D.C. I’m certain the odor of that city would linger in lasting proof if I had been there. I did not “storm” that building and I did not walk into anything. Nor did the vast and overwhelming majority of people that want a real and lasting liberty. Talk that lumps everyone into the miniature mass of capital crashers is as wrong headed as it is a concession to the news reel of the lying left.
Just when has the left deciphered between the average Conservative and some imaginary, wild right-wing blood letting agency of evil? When? When did they honestly assess us? Ever?
“We” did not give anyone anything to beat us with. We have been swatted like flies while we try to make livings. We have been locked down, put down, shut down, and now, talked down from every angle.
What the HELL did I just pay to watch????
Yeah. That’s why I’m worried Whittle is wrong that this can be resolved with grass roots political activism.
We didn’t start this fight. We didn’t set the Rules of Engagement. We just wanted to be left alone.
They just won’t leave us alone.
Personally, I think Bill was right.
With regards to your concern that the left will assess the right poorly, may I suggest that we don’t care what the left thinks or says. The issue is that it’s many of the supposedly right wing that are also assessing us poorly that is of concern. These people need replacing, which is what Bill’s plan outlines.
You miss the point, here, Jack. When the left controls the narrative and tells everyone that Trump supporters are all “vigilante, ride or die, thugs and domestic terrorists” and then we accept that as a blanket statement we are doing exactly what we told our congressmen and Presidents to stop doing when we elected Trump. No, we don’t care what they think. We do care that if we agree to any degree the narrative reaches the world. It reaches those who haven’t even begun to vote yet. It reaches into the future and makes us pay dearly.
We should not wear the badge they manufacture for us. We were not all guilty of a crime. We did not all crash the gates. It would take a pretty silly assessment to loop everyone in that.
I will say again, these people were bound up by government and ready to explode. Not all of us have lost as much as others. Not all of us have been attacked by our states, counties, and cities as others. So, it is easy to talk when you haven’t borne the weight of it.
I’m old enough to recall when patriots liked the Boston Tea Party. Guess seasons change.
My, aren’t you brave?
My biggest problem with the left is their incessant belief that they know not only what is best for me, but how I think.
As, apparently, you do.
What would I have done were I in Washington yesterday?
I wouldn’t have been in Washington yesterday. I have a family to provide for.
You know, the same argument we make when the Left rallies?
Here is what I know for certain.
No Trump rally has devolved into violence before.
Numerous Leftist ones have.
I have never been let out of work early because my office is in a war zone because of a Right-Wing rally. Since the George Floyd death, I’ve been told to leave work early four times, and had work altogether cancelled two other times. Because of Leftist rallies.
I’ve never been accosted by right wingers or white folk for wearing a Red Hat. Even when it was simply a hat for a local Hospital. Leftists, on the other hand…. (of course, I am so clueless, it didn’t dawn on me they were looking for a fight until they pussied the f*** off and wandered away Being a large man with a knife hanging off my belt apparently has its advantages).
I’ve never had white folk start talking about randomly shooting cops and other white people as I walked by. I have had local indigenous folk of greater melanin levels think they could intimidate me with such language as I, the only melanin challenged person within view, walked by (I can’t actually assume they were leftists, just more indigenous population of New Jersey’s largest city – but I can assume they weren’t right wingers).
I suppose it is possible that the folk that instigated the break into the Capitol were right wingers. But if they were, they were behaving out of character.
And, yet, I am expected to believe that this violence exemplifies the Right Wing? Because the other side thinks they know what we think and how we act? Much like you are doing now?
Is it time for a revolution? Maybe. But I prefer my revolutions planned a bit better. And you can get bent if you feel I lack the will power you decide in your infinite wisdom that I should have been required to demonstrate yesterday.
Out of curiosity, where were you?
Well, aside from missing every point in this post, you have gone spiraling out into a pointless screed about your knife and race.
My point, Tim, was that some people have acted as if there was never any encroachment by an oversized government but there was by those who broke into the the Capitol building.
This did not knock people that were not there. Not once. It was about people claiming that we are all to blame because these people did something but the government is just a victim after all that they have done.
Despite your ego, perhaps you could read it again and decipher something other than your hurt pride. I have not insulted you, little fellah, and your insult did more to belittle your cause than I could have.
I too was at work. I have not said anything bad about that for you or anyone else.
I did not call for a revolution. Many have. Get your head straight on that, pal.
While I do not claim infinite wisdom, I can clearly see when someone comments without the slightest bit of wisdom. You, sir, took the cake.
Have a nice day.
Oh, yes, I don’t claim to be brave.
Of course, a man that snipes at me from a keyboard cannot claim an abundance of that virtue, either.
Given the tone of your reply, I think that you have read something in D. Plorable‘s post that I have not. Do you care to elaborate and enlighten me about what you found offensive?
Yes.
Like I said elsewhere today, I don’t approve of rioting but now that it happened I hope at least our bastard “representatives” thought for a moment, “Holy shit, they’re coming for me.”
Hopefully the warning is enough.
It depends:
Will there be a repeat of the Tea Party Experience.
There’s people here that’s as far as they really want to go, from the sound and look of what they say.
I want a world where people find their backbones without having someone who is more ruthless than them slamming their back into a brick wall.
I like how uncivilized Americans could be in the early 19th Century. It gave us a President who could quote Shakespeare and the Bible extant and crack a walnut open with two fingers.
In front of audiences where he was not the only one who could crack a walnut like that. And praised him by saying he spoke like a book.
I hope what we’re putting together has people like that. Otherwise it ain’t gonna work.
The 20 to 30 crowd has already started making some solidly good choices about their educations past high school.
And the internet has websites with some very good poetry and prose. Old school stuff like Auden and Dorothy L. Sayers.
You can get the best part of a Liberal Arts degree (I have to confess I never did read much of the Iliad but I devoured AJ Cronin) without the propaganda that was around even in the gentle ’80’s campuses.
So pleasant surprises can happen.
Hard times require hard men.
Bullies only understand brutal, overwhelming force.
