Tea at Trianon: Anti-Trump Riots in Chicago

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

Anti-Trump Riots in Chicago

From Freedom Outpost:

I've always enjoyed reporter Paul Joseph Watson's comments and for the most part found that he breaks a lot of stories, plus I like his British accent. He posted a video today following the Chicago rioting at the Donald Trump rally that is excellent and everyone should take notice.

I just have one question before I point out in the article some of the things that Watson says in his video and the question I want you to consider is this: Does anyone else find it coincidental that after so many political elite and donors met with the apparent purpose of dealing with Donald Trump, according to Bill Kristol, just last weekend, that this would flow in its wake? Pardon me while I put 2 and 2 together.

Now, notice that the attacks did not come from those supporting Trump nor Donald Trump. They came from agent provocateurs and other leftists. They attacked police, people gathered for the Trump rally, tore up signs fired guns in the air, threatened to rape women and basically acted in a manner that takes on the character of an insurrection that should constitutionally be put down by the citizen militia....

Of course, Watson points this out in the video that if the shoe was on the other foot and Trump supporters had done what these devils did, then they would be having a coronary right now and calling it criminal, not free speech. Fortunately, Watson helps us understand exactly who is involved in this whole thing and it isn't just Bernie Sanders and the Black Lives Matter gang.

Watson identified 28-year-old Jedidiah Brown, who claims to be an ordained pastor (rolls my eyes) and an anti-violence activist. However, video shows him slugging it out, along with several others against a man at the Trump rally. Did Mr. Brown not read that elders are to be "…temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable,… not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome…"? (1 Tim. 3:2) I'm guessing he didn't, and should be removed from any place of authority in the church as he just demonstrated he is unqualified on many levels.

Of course, many Sanders supporters threatened violence for Trump supporters and even waved the Communist flag about, which is an ideology that was responsible for the deaths of literally hundreds of millions of people during the 20^th century! My goodness, we've even seen these people come out and call for the assassination of Donald Trump!

In fact, I don't see the FBI dealing with known domestic terrorist and close friend of Barack Hussein Obama Soetoro Sobarkah, Bill Ayers, who showed up to throw fuel on the fire of the Chicago insurrection. (Read more.)
