Yesterday and Today
Vanity | 5/31/20 | FlipWilson

Yesterday: if the police had shot you with a paint gun, arrested you, or otherwise trampled your rights it would have been fine, so long as it was in support of social distancing and lockdowns. There was no police act too invasive or forceful in support of lockdown.

Today: looting and rioting must be dealt a “light touch.”

Yesterday: Certain governors wouldn’t (and still won’t) allow you to get a hair cut or attend a graduation. They condemned any protest that challenged their orders. Businesses who defied the orders were ruined.

Today, some of the same governors are talking about creating safe spaces for protests.

Only question I have left, if protests, rioting and looting are now on the approved list, does this mean that the lockdown orders will be rescinded? Somehow, I doubt it.

There is a symbiotic relationship at hand here and both sides need to be clearly identified. Antifa and BLM rioters vote for Democrats. Democrats fund Antifa and BLM. Democrats and some stupid $hit Republicans made the lockdowns to occur. They also vote on spending measures that end up funding these groups - yes, your tax dollars fund the organizers and Republicans do not have the testicular fortitude to make an argument out loud when these funding bills go through Congress. All involved are the problem and they help each other out financially, often using your money. They do not understand freedom and liberty. They do not understand the Constitution. And they do not understand the righteous rule of law. They want to fundamentally transform America and they are openly doing it. Those balless RINOs that do nothing are just as much as the problem as a cop just following orders or the rioter on the street looting and razing businesses. In other words, the problem is much deeper and it has existed much longer than the shutdown or the riots. It is just the same people moving from one mechanism to another to deprive true Americans their rights, their livelihoods and their property. They do it for power.

The left wants anarchy. Surveillance of a Presidential campaign and then the Presidency, an attempted coup, a bogus impeachment with star chambers for courts, the lock down, arrested for "smiling on a cloudy day", releasing thousands of convicted felons, jailing business owners and now facilitating the destruction of private property and complete mayhem in our locked down lefty cities.

Fight or flight is a daily discussion in my home now.

Stole this from another thread:

Somebody should tell the mayor that the looters are holding a church service.

Dear Geraldine,

The only thing you should worry your sweet self about is being mis-pro-noun-ed.

I’d also caution you about wearing heels to a protest, not very practical if you need to make a quick break.

The real worry from our Liberal leaders should be how these protesters/rioters were lacking the proper inclusiveness and diversity we expect.

I did hear that there is a proposal to schedule Protests/Riots for the week ahead.

Monday; BLM, Antifa (the hard core folks)
Tuesday; Drag Queens, LBGTQwerty and their allies should come out.
Wednesday; Muslims and ISIS supporters, they obviously can’t come out on Tuesday.
Thursday; #Metoo, girls in vagina hats can express their secret desires, lack of oppression. We are hoping that some Muslims stick around for this day.
Friday; This will be a free for all. A kinda Pot Luck of SJW’s and snowflakes mixed with hard core Commies and Academics.

The authorities promoting the proposed protest schedule want you to feel welcomed and be assured that your concerns are being represented.
