The recent attempt to assassinate President Trump failed because the guy wasn’t very smart. It is the third attempt against him. It shows the difficulty of securing a public place to protect the President. This is the second assassination attempt at that hotel. The first was against Ronald Reagan. The hotel has to continue business and people are constantly coming and going and it is hard to screen everyone. In addition, the President has to travel from the Whitehouse to the hotel. It is only one more indication that we need a ballroom in the White House. A ballroom in the White House would be a lot easier to secure and not require dangerous travel. In addition, the United States is one of only a few countries that does not have a State ballroom to entertain on important occasions. Yet liberal politicians call it an abuse of authority. They didn’t say anything when President Obama did extensive non-essential renovations at taxpayer expense. That was OK, but they feel President Trump has no right to build a vitally needed ballroom paid entirely by private donations with no tax dollars.

It is always interesting to listen to Democrats at election time. With the mid-term elections coming up, they have been loudly proclaiming their condemnation of violence in response to the attempted assassination of President Trump. It is in stark contrast to their previous rhetoric after a shooting where they screamed for gun control. It is also in stark contrast to their previous rhetoric where they told their followers not to serve anyone who wore a MAGA hat or shirt and to drive them out of their business. They have proclaimed on national television that President Trump does not deserve to live and someone should take him out. It is consistent with their philosophy that they have written into State and national laws. They first proclaimed that they could not tell if an unborn baby was a person and protected by the Constitution until it could live outside the womb at six months (Roe vs Wade). However, they wanted to continue aborting the child up until birth so they pushed through Planned Parenthood vs Casey in 1992 which proclaimed that the woman had a right to abort the baby if it threatened her happiness right up to birth and they are now pushing to extend that beyond birth for babies that manage to survive an abortion. They have pushed that doctrine ever since. Once you give someone right to eliminate those who get in the way of your happiness, it is just a matter of deciding who that person is. In addition to claiming to want President Trump dead, they have sought to eliminate him legally with attempts to impeach him on fake charges and discredit him and other conservatives through false accusations made public just before an election to alienate their followers so the Democrat candidate can win and then dropped the charges after the election because they knew they won’t stand up in court. However, by then the damage has been done and the candidate never gets to defend themselves against the charges so the public is left with the impression that he is guilty. That philosophy has also been the basis for them pushing euthanasia of the severely sick and critically injured and for denying them medical treatment. It has also been the basis for them pushing assisted suicide for those who are severely depressed. How can we trust them to defend our right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness, if they won’t defend our right to life?

Violence and Social Strife-2-AM
There are two basic concepts of the rule of law today which are competing for dominance. There are those who support traditional views and believe that we need a police force to maintain order, support the right to own guns to protect themselves since the police cannot be everywhere at once, and the need to protect our borders from those who do not share our values and want to impose their values on us. They also believe in a just rule of law that applies equally to everyone and that there should be strong penalties to deter criminals from breaking the law. However, there is a growing belief in America that the violence we see is caused by the fact there are too many guns easily available and people should not be allowed to own guns. They also believe that our police force is racist and should be withdrawn from Black areas, though they don’t say how they will maintain order without a police force or how the average citizen can protect themselves from criminals if they don’t have guns or a police force. The fact is that hundreds more Blacks are killed by other Blacks than by police. Cutting police department budgets to force them to withdraw from Black areas has resulted in criminals taking over those areas resulting in more attacks against Blacks by other Blacks. They also believe that justice should be administered by the courts based on the judge’s prejudices. They feel that criminals are less likely to commit more crimes if you are lenient and aren’t too hard on them and that harsh penalties drive criminals to retaliate against society. However it has been shown that criminals don’t commit as many crimes in areas with strong penalties and commit more crimes in areas where they know they will not get a harsh sentence. A few days in jail or none at all are a small price to pay for what they get from the crimes.

We are seeing increased violence over the death of a woman in Minnesota. It makes no sense. While the people in Minneapolis should protest peacefully if there is a pattern of injustice, a lot of hatred is being whipped up by out of State promoters who don’t care one bit about her. It is evident that a lot of the protests around the country are being fueled by those seeking to take advantage of the situation for their own political purpose since the protests are well organized and well funded. They are inciting riots and creating hatred against President Trump, who is the lawfully elected President in order to undermine the rule of law. As I look back over my posts, I see a number of incidents in Minnesota, particularly Minneapolis which indicates a pattern of civil unrest, particularly of defending those who are breaking the law against law enforcement. ICE agents are responsible for removing illegal immigrants from the country and They are there because the city and State officials are obstructing justice by refusing to turn illegal immigrants over to federal officials when they are arrested for crimes. City and State governments are openly violating federal law by harboring criminals from out of the country and have used the media to incite violence against federal agents by portraying them as being there illegally. That indicates that they view the law is a tool to achieve goals and not to obtain justice. They are abusing the trust of the American people for political purposes to discredit Republicans so they can win elections. Liberal politicians did it in President Trump’s first term to cover up the crimes of Hillary Clinton and President Obama and are doing it now to cover up their crimes in Minnesota. They don’t like it because President Trump is trying to restore the law to punishing criminals instead of as a tool to win elections.

The media leads us to believe that police officers are deliberately targeting Blacks and as a result, there is increasingly violent retaliation against police. While many people claim that a higher percentage of Blacks are killed by police and a higher percentage of Black people are stopped compared to Whites, we need to examine the facts behind those statements. The fact is that a higher percentage of Blacks commit crimes. Currently, 52% of murders are committed by Blacks, even though they constitute only 13% of the population. Therefore, police are more likely to be looking for Black suspects and a police officer may stop someone who is Black because he fits the description of who they are looking for or because they are acting suspiciously. Police are also more likely to assume the Black suspect has a gun and intends to use it because of the higher percentage of violent crimes by Blacks. A Black friend of mine sent me the following statistics. He states that contrary to what we hear, the number of Blacks killed by police has dropped 70% in the last 50 years. In 2012, only 173 Blacks were killed by police while 326 Whites were killed by police. Apparently, police are showing greater restraint in Black areas but cannot ignore what appears to be an open threat. While liberals claim police are responsible for the higher percentage of Blacks arrested, they ignore the fact that more Blacks commit crimes because of liberal policies which promoted slavery which destroyed families by separating them and showing men that it is the overseers job to care for the women and children. They later prevented Blacks from getting an education and good jobs, resulting in a greater need for welfare which further destroyed families by requiring men to leave the family so they could get help. While some Blacks are breaking the mold and getting a good education and a good job, it will take hard work and several generations to rebuild the family structure among Blacks and undo the damage caused by liberal policies.

We are seeing more of the same old narrative to create fear and division. While they scream about mass killings, they claim they need to take away your guns to make you safe. It will only disarm you so you can’t protect yourself against criminals who are still armed because they don’t obey laws about not owning guns. They scream about police brutality and claim they need to defund the police to protect you from police brutality, however it means there won’t be any police to protect you from those criminals. They claim they have to stop arresting criminals because it unfairly affects Blacks but it means those criminals will be back out on the streets committing more crimes. They prosecute those who report crimes saying we need to protect people’s privacy while they do nothing to prosecute those criminals allowing them to continue their crimes. It also makes people reluctant to report crimes out of fear of being prosecuted. It seems like there is a pattern here. Their goal seems to be to encourage crime and violence.

We are seeing the same pattern in the media with the shooting in Minnesota that we have seen in similar instances. They rush to condemn the ICE agent for killing the woman and ignore the facts. ICE was there to arrest people in the country illegally because the State was violating the law by not reporting them to federal agents. Then protestors showed up to protest the arrests and prevent law enforcement officers from enforcing the law. We already see a systematic attempt to obstruct justice and hamper law enforcement. In addition, this isn’t a random demonstrator who the agents were harassing. While the narrative paints her as an innocent protester, videos show that she was harassing the agents and when confronted, deliberately aimed her car at the agent and attempted to run him over. It looks like the agent was acting to protect himself and other agents. Although she hit him, he was able to escape without serious injury. This was followed by rioting in other cities to protest the killing and calling for ICE agents to be pulled out of the city. This follows the George Floyd incident six years earlier in the same city which followed the same pattern. Police seeking to arrest a man caught committing a crime was killed while resisting arrest. It is followed by riots around the country calling for defunding the police. The goal isn’t justice, it is to hinder law enforcement and encourage anarchy. However, the narrative also hides another important fact which is that it distracts from the discovery of the millions of dollars of funds to help the needy that were stolen.

The rhetoric of liberal media and politicians points to a set of values that they have been pushing for years but have recently been more open about. They have been pushing abortion as a woman’s right in spite of the fact we now know decisively that it is a baby with a heartbeat and brainwaves. They are saying in effect, the mother’s right to happiness supersedes the baby’s right to life. Once you make that statement, it merely becomes a matter of who you feel stands in the way of your happiness. We are seeing that their feelings are not limited to the unwanted baby in the womb. They are also pushing assisted suicide and mercy killing for the sick, the injured, the elderly, and those who are mentally disturbed. They feel those people are a burden and should be eliminated. They have been very quiet about it because the majority of Americans still value life but they have been quietly pushing it in areas they find open to it like Oregon. Other countries like Canada and many European countries are more open to them and openly practice them because they don’t have the strong Christian values that were prevalent in America up until the 1960’s and 1970’s. When you are trying to convince someone of something, it is frustrating to have someone express an opposing opinion, especially if they can back up their opinion with facts. Charlie Kirk was challenging them to back up their arguments with facts and they knew they could not do that because their opinions are based on feelings, not facts. Therefore he posed a threat to their attempts to convince people, so they feel he needed to be eliminated.
