Some day, sooner or later, this kind of evil/stupidity will be the nail in their coffin (or the dirt on their mass grave). Maybe not this time, but it is inevitable. It will happen.
This is a fight they can not win. Not in the long run. Why do they insist on fighting it? Because they are dumb enough to believe in the permanence of a State. Something that has never been and never will be. A delusion. And they are betting their very lives on it.
Some day this sort of thuggish behavior will bring out the defensive nature of their targeted victims. It is right to defend yourself and your property. No "law" can ever change that fact. When the tipping point is reached it will be a sad day for the families of the enforcers.
But, there is time. Enforcers can either start serving and protecting their masters, rather than victimizing them on behalf of insane control freaks in DC (and locally)... or they can quit their tax-parasite "jobs" and go straight. They have a choice and no one knows for sure when the time to make that choice has expired. It might be tomorrow. It might be the day the thugs move to shut down the first dispensary. Or, it might have been yesterday.
Think, if that is not beyond your ability, Mr. Policeman. I'm only trying to save your hide.

Unfortunately, Kent, there will always be some thug available to do this kind of work. The push of unemployment and the pull of investing your actions with the mantle of state righteousness is just too great. Our only hope is oathkeepers.org.
ReplyDeleteStewart Rhodes is a friend of mine, but I have been extremely disappointed in that I have yet to see an oathkeeper refuse to obey even one unconstitutional order. Its members are still enforcing traffic "laws", drug "laws", and anti-gun "laws" every single day. They are not shunning enforcer "brothers" who are committing those acts enthusiastically. They are still allowing themselves to be illegally sent overseas to impose the programs of the US Empire. I'll believe they are "our only hope" when they prove it. I'm still waiting and would love to have to eat my words.
ReplyDeleteI know there will always be thugs who are itching to do the work of the bad guys; I just want everyone to know what they are.
And I have written about the sad fact that the US government is destroying the economy so badly that more and more people believe they have no choice but to take a government "job" of some sort. There's a difference between taking a "job" of that nature because you (wrongly) believe you have no other option, and doing so with enthusiasm and gusto.
Probably these enforcers are not actually counting on the permanence of which you speak, but the probability that it will endure long enough for them to take their rewards from it.
ReplyDeleteI think they are not so ideological as greedy, pragmatic shitbums who are willing to tromp all over the people (from whom the booty is taken).
Thanks for posting.
