Thoughts on the national insurrection
Center for Security Policy ^ | 8 June 20 | Christopher Holton

Posted on 06/13/2020 12:26:49 PM PDT by LSUfan

• It is possible to despise the actions of the police officer in Minneapolis who killed George Floyd and at the same time despise the actions of the rioters, looters and, particularly, the criminal Antifa element.

• It should be abundantly clear to anyone who is paying close attention that the unrest we are seeing in numerous cities across America is not a spontaneous, genuine response to the killing of George Floyd, but rather a planned, organized insurrection prepared by Marxist-anarchist organizations. These groups have commandeered the frustration and outrage felt by many Americans and have literally hijacked that anger and used it to instigate violence. Their rhetoric and manifestos reveal a radical, extremist agenda designed to fundamentally alter American society, if not outright attempt to overthrow the constitution of the United States. In short, the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, and especially Antifa, are seditious movements whose goal it is to overthrow the US constitution. These organizations should be fringe movements but for apparent generous levels of funding that have enabled them to appear more numerous than they actually are.

• The fact that so many in the so-called “mainstream” liberal and progressive community have strenuously defended Antifa and its ilk (and in some cases family members of prominent Democrat politicians have been directly involved with Antifa) is further evidence that there is a definite lack of commitment to the US constitution on the political Left. I have witnessed this first-hand. During my work with the Center for Security Policy to conduct education and outreach on American Laws for American Courts legislation, which is crafted to protect individual fundamental constitutional rights against foreign laws and foreign legal doctrines, I was harassed and subjected to ad hominem attacks from Soros-funded organizations like Think Progress, while other Soros-funded organizations doled out large levels of funding to attempt to derail our attempt to preserve individual fundamental constitutional rights. The radical Leftist Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) even labeled us “haters” for attempting to protect and promote the constitution’s Bill of Rights.

Interestingly, the SPLC has not seen fit to label Antifa a hate group, despite its well-documented history of violence and hate-filled vitriol.

• The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement has many sincere activist members who seek to correct and eliminate what they see as racial injustices, disparities and discrimination. However, there can be no doubt whatsoever that the Black Lives Matter movement was founded by self-described Marxists and has its origins in Marxism, a hateful, totalitarian system that has been relegated to the ash bin of history around the world, save Red China, North Korea and Cuba. I’m convinced that most organizations, corporations and leaders are ignorant as to the origins and Marxist philosophy of BLM. But those who are aware of its Marxism worry me and they should worry us all, not because of race, but because Marxism is a threat to the constitution that many of us took an oath to defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

That’s why it is so wrong and so telling when supporters of BLM object to anyone saying “All Lives Matter.” What they’re doing is attempting to enforce mob tyranny. You’re not allowed to disagree. In fact, you’re not allowed to stray from their dogma at all. You must stay between their lines or else you are labeled a racist…even if you happen to be black.

The same goes for the NFL protests. First of all, let me go on record as saying that no one should feel compelled to listen to the views of NFL players, coaches or executives on matters not having to do with football—whether they are liberal or conservative, Democrat or Republican, black or white. These are football players. But as Daniel Patrick Moynihan once famously said, “You’re entitled to your opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts.” Those associated with the NFL who profess support for the BLM movement now claim that when someone, like Drew Brees, calls for respecting the flag and the National Anthem, they are “distracting” from the BLM movement and message.

The opposite is in fact true. By choosing to conduct their protests during the playing of the National Anthem at the NFL games, it was the protesters who brought respect/disrespect for the flag into the discussion and thus created the distraction. I would maintain that the players who started the “kneeling during the Anthem” phenomenon knew exactly what they were doing and now they are dishonestly accusing anyone who calls for respecting the flag and the Anthem of insensitivity or, worse, outright racism. Does anyone really honestly believe Drew Brees is a racist? Does anyone think that Colin Kaepernick didn’t purposely choose the National Anthem ceremony for his protest? The truth sometimes hurts and Kaepernick did his own cause a disservice by using that venue as a forum. Drew Brees was right and Tyrann Mathieu is wrong: BLM created the distraction, not those who pointed out the obvious. Moreover, when disrespect for the flag and the National Anthem is coupled with an organization with a Marxist ideology, it becomes a much more serious issue and no one should be intimidated into not expressing their opinion about it. To do so is to practice Marxist tyranny, whether Tyrann Mathieu knows it or not.

• Antifa is clearly a terrorist organization. In fact, it is a terrorist organization of global reach, with cells in 18 countries. Its modern origins go back to the Red Army Faction in West Germany during the Cold War. Antifa aims to overthrow the US constitution. It should be designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, its leaders apprehended and its members disbanded. There is a great deal of data to support this. I urge readers to see for themselves.

• What the U.S. is now experiencing is a violent insurrection timed to disrupt the U.S. election. Preventing that insurrection from achieving its goals should be paramount right now. The future of our country is at stake. The constitution must be defended.

Good point. BLM is a money-funneling scheme to enrich Communists.

Even with the blitzkrieg we see going on Segregation Joe I believe is at his high point in polling and can’t get it done.

It wasn’t too long ago it was said how Ohio goes or how Florida goes so does the Presidency. This year it is how Pennsylvania goes so does the Presidency. At the moment polling has this at 50/50 taking in bias suggests a Trump victory.

As more people see segregation Joe the more they will be turned off on him. He is not likable maybe even more so than Hillary. Of course turn out is always the deciding factor.

And with how things are going and the lawlessness unleashed on the world and Trumps “Nuts! to the establishment, history is surely in the making.

Asking the SPLC to condemn Antifa would be like asking the Nazi Party to condemn the SS as antisemitic.

The Republicans and President Trump is sound asleep. We are at war. Soon if Trump does not use the insurrection act to destroy the huge powerful communist empire we will lose the Country. The destruction of the entire voting system will destroy us

That happens in court under very specific rules of evidence and cross examination.

You shouldn’t “despise” the office for doing his JOB! Dealing with a career criminal, high on dangerous drugs, resisting arrest, who after being placed in the patrol car refused to remain in it.

He acted as if he was out of control, so the officer had to “control” him using a department AUTHORIZED technique.

The officers actions DID NOT CAUSE FLOYD’S DEATH!

Floyd’s own lifestyle and actions that day (fentanyl & Meth) caused his own death.

Get off the band wagon. Sometimes there are uncomfortable truths. They are still TRUTH!

Congress to the rescue (yeah, right) regarding the national insurrection! /sarc

Patriots are reminded that the Founding States gave Congress the express constitutional power to not only make sure that the states respect the voices of citizen voters, but also to suppress insurrections.

H O W E V E R…

We are still being oppressed by a corrupt, worthless Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration that will predictably continue partying with local and state activist government leaders while watching CNN show radical groups in chaos-plagued states turn US cities upside down.

The remedy for constitutionally failed federal and state governments…

Patriots in all states need to come to the rescue patriots being oppressed by their local and state governments by electing a new patriot Congress that will not only promise to fully support PDJT's already excellent work for MAGA, but will also do the following.

New lawmakers also need to promise to do their constitutionally enumerated duties to protect citizen voting power and suppress insurrections by making penal laws that discourage state actors from helping to promote anti-constitutional republic mayhem.

The GOP and Trump appear to have no interest in defending the constitution. I’m sick and tired of people saying that these folks are powerless. The have a platform and their #1 duty is to defend the constitution. If they can do that the step down and let someone in there that can/will.

I was gobsmacked and encouraged when Leo Terrell had a meltdown on Hannity yesterday and screamed that Democrats should leave the party. He was outraged at their hypocrisy, and said he may vote for Trump. (I actually believed him.)

Get regular Democrats informed, have them inform friends and family, and things could work out. The “prosters” aren’t regular Democrats and there’s no hope for them.

They've already been calling Trump a dictator with no basis in fact. What do you think they're going to do if he orders active-duty military to march into the slums with full kit and armor? Regardless of his duty to suppress insurrection, they'll try to impeach him again, and the communists of the country will wholeheartedly support it.

Yes every f’ing time a Republican is in charge we’re told that he can’t use his power or he’ll be called a dictator. What is the point of even having power if you can’t/won’t use it? We are at a very dangerous point in history.
