This Government Won’t Protect You

 From John Zmirak at The Stream:

The U.S. no longer bothers to guard its own borders. It didn’t investigate the thousands of looters who trashed whole cities, firebombed courthouses, and threw firebombs at cops. It’s pouring $40 billion into a plan to kill lots of Russians and Ukrainians over some meaningless border disputes. But it can’t provide affordable gasoline, or baby formula at any price.

It’s putting resources instead into terrorizing political opponents, from the January 6 defendants to parents who attend school board meetings. Like a crumbling Third World regime, its sole focus is repressing domestic enemies, while the whole place crumbles into ruins. Batista’s Cuba in 1959 comes menacingly to mind. You might remember it as the setting for the best scenes in Godfather II. Except now there’s no America to flee to.

This is the world that the Democrats gave us. But not they alone. It’s equally the product of Establishment Republicans, who’d rather see the left triumph everywhere than treat their populist, Christian base as human beings with legitimate interests. They Deplore us as much as the Democrats do, maybe even more. The gay-led “conservative” magazine National Review is gaslighting us into a game of nuclear chicken with Russia, and still scorns solid evidence of 2020 election fraud. Now Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is trying to sell out our constitutional gun rights, to leave us completely at the mercy of this decrepit regime, which is run by extremists who hate us.

Are you paying attention yet?

 If you want to check the life signs of the American Republic, take the time to read this appalling report by Human Events of the massacre in Ulvalde, Texas. Read it all, every last bitter word. The shooter was permitted into the school with a deadly weapon, and allowed to terrorize and kill for a solid hour before police breached the building. Desperate parents were already there, some of them with firearms, begging the cops to act — or let them go in and rescue their children themselves. (As several cops apparently had, extracting just their own kids.) At least one mom (after getting out of police handcuffs) escaped their clutches, ran in, and came out with her kids. (Read more.)

 

From Becker News:

The mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas has been a wake-up call for Americans around the country. The unfathomable circumstances surrounding 18-year-old Salvador Ramos breaching a school and putting to death 19 young children, as well as killing two adults, have reignited controversy about how best to prevent school shootings.

This time, it’s different. While prominent Democrats seized on the Uvalde tragedy to reflexively renew their calls for “gun control” — the same policies that have failed to prevent major cities like Chicago, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. from turning into murder capitals — the atrocity has many other people questioning the FBI’s failure to act on red flags, the school’s unacceptably lax security, and the inexcusable unwillingness of local law enforcement to act quickly to stop the shooter. More on that coming up that will sure to get readers’ blood boiling.

Uvalde’s law enforcement has already been feeling the heat — not only for failing to act to stop the shooter, but thwarting anguished parents from intervening out of desperation to try to save their loved ones. (Read more.)

It is obvious to me that the mass shooting incidents always occur in places where there are no guns to protect the victims from being shot.

That has become obvious. And all the murderers know it.
