I’ve been active in law enforcement for more than 50 years. During that time, I’ve seen numerous protests. I’ve also seen far too many riots. There’s a difference.
Orderly protest is part of our American tradition. It is an exercise of our constitutional rights of free speech and peaceable assembly. It is one way we the people can make our voices heard, our views known to those in power.
But rioting, looting, destroying property, and attacking fellow Americans have no place in orderly protest. They are, in fact, the very antithesis of orderly protest. And in the end, these patently illegal actions not only undermine the moral standing of legitimate protests. History shows that they also wind up hurting most of the very people that true protesters aim to help.
Peaceful protest can help change America for the better. Organized protests and peaceful demonstrations during the Martin Luther King Jr. era produced tremendous progress for the civil rights movement; the church bombings and other violent actions of segregationists only advanced King’s cause.
In these trying times, we must turn to the greatest document in the history of the world to promise freedom and opportunity to its citizens for guidance. Find out more now >>
Those nonviolent protests changed laws and changed lives. In today’s America, there are more successful African Americans—and more opportunities for African Americans to succeed—than at any point in our nation’s history.
Yet, recent events make painfully clear that America’s race issues are not fully resolved. George Floyd’s tragic death should bring us closer together. And peaceful protest can help do that.
Unfortunately, just as in previous protests, not everyone who has taken to the streets has come to build up the black community and bind us together.
Some believe their demands for change will never be taken seriously unless they demonstrate their willingness to “burn it down.” But burning things down only polarizes communities, making it even more difficult for a just cause to advance. Violence is not only unacceptable, it’s useless as a tool for bring positive social change.
Also on the streets are Antifa anarchists and other radical extremists who see the protests as an opportunity to sow chaos and division, and who seek to incite the killing of police officers. They care nothing about honoring the memory of George Floyd or trying to work toward a more common understanding on race issues.
This, too, must not be tolerated.
Then, of course, there are political opportunists. They may not be in the streets, but they see what’s happening as a fantastic opportunity to score points and mobilize their bases. Their demands to defund or dissolve police forces are self-defeating and absurd. Shame on them. This is not a political issue; it is a moral one.
Rioters are destroying families’ futures and stealing the American dream. They have killed those sworn to protect us, harmed innocent citizens, and damaged many of the businesses that provide groceries, work, and necessary services in our minority communities.
Many of these businesses were already teetering on the edge due to the COVID-19 shutdown. Mob violence assures that many of them will never recover—and the jobs they provided will never return.
What’s the best way for America to reopen and return to business? The National Coronavirus Recovery Commission, a project of The Heritage Foundation, assembled America’s top thinkers to figure that out. So far, it has made more than 260 recommendations. Learn more here.
To bring about change in society, we must identify wrong policies and wrong actions where they exist. We must also hold accountable and punish wrongdoers. But we should not resort to lawlessness or stigmatize courageous, lawfully acting police officers.
We must also recognize that government can’t change hearts. This is work we must each do ourselves. We can start by asking ourselves the question posed by theologian Francis Schaeffer: “How should we then live?”
We can also help change the hearts of others, by reaching out in a spirit of grace, openness, and understanding. We must lift each other up and find ways to help heal those who have been harmed.
Only when we come together and listen to one another, rather than shouting at one another, can we begin to heal and to be healed.

This is a critical year in the history of our country. With the country polarized and divided on a number of issues and with roughly half of the country clamoring for increased government control—over health care, socialism, increased regulations, and open borders—we must turn to America’s founding for the answers on how best to proceed into the future.
The Heritage Foundation has compiled input from more than 100 constitutional scholars and legal experts into the country’s most thorough and compelling review of the freedoms promised to us within the United States Constitution into a free digital guide called Heritage’s Guide to the Constitution.

Within the ocean of rising humanity, composed of some 1.5 billion Muslims, each individual believer—a drop—through a combination of choice and forces beyond his control, ends up in one of its many waves. It is the jihadist wave that is highly attractive to the deeply-indoctrinated and poorly-adjusted in dealing rationally and independently with life. And it is the violent verses of Islam that concerns American law enforcement.
While American people go about their daily business, Muslims and Muslim organizations across the United States are busy and work “stealthily” to change and alter America from within in what is called “Soft Jihad,” or “Cultural Jihad where the sword of jihad is not advisable, where Muslims are not powerful enough to unsheathe their sword.
They have been active in several ways. The number of non-Muslims who are converting to Islam is rapidly growing. In the U.S., the majority of converts are African-American but there have also been significant numbers of others who convert as well, many of them well-educated. Muslims in non-Muslim lands proselytize relentlessly and convert others while any Muslim who leaves Islam is considered an apostate and automatically condemned to death.
America slowly has been going through a process called subversion . Regrettably, not many Americans have a slightest clue that this takes place daily here at home. Muslims have become calculatingly meek and mild in their demeanor. They have learned how the American system works. For now, they are not openly resorting to violent jihad although we know Islam cannot be separated from its most powerful tool, Jihad. Without Jihad, Islam would go through a slow death. Jihad is perpetual in Islam. They both need each other for their survival.
Here is the disturbing question, what if this violent domestic group known as Antifa offers perfect cover for jihad and secretly works with the Islamic organizations as an arm of violent jihad?
According to Diana West, “here is more on Antifa/jihad connections from Edward Klein’s book, All Out War: The Plot to Destroy Trump. Note that in Portland they were chanting, “Allah-u Akbar, smash these Nazi scums.”
President Trump in the wake of the recent violent rioting, involving Antifa, the militant wing of the Democrat Party, suggested to designate this group as domestic terrorist.
On numerous occasions, Antifa has openly threatened to massacre American patriots and even President Trump. This group is one of Obama’s legacies, created to inflict more pain on the American people. “Eight years of Obama’s leadership has left America demonstrably weaker and more divided. Rather than the promised “healing”—racial and other—the Obama era frayed the ties that bind us.”
Katie Pavlich also agrees with the President. She said: Antifa Should Be Designated a ‘Domestic Terrorist Organization.”
There are antifascists and then there is Antifa. In any case, we have had a few years to objectively evaluate their modus operandi. How they work and operate. They are mostly reactionary, not proactive. But that could change as the group grows. Antifa despises America, our flag and what it stands for. They appear out of nowhere to any peaceful conservative gathering and disrupt it.
If we closely pay attention, we realize that Antifa has adopted the ways of the Islamic jihadist and resorts to intimidation tactics and violence. They call anyone and everyone Nazi.
“For as long as there have been fascists, there has been debate over the way to respond to them.
“In his new book, Antifa, historian and organizer Mark Bray traces various leftist anti-fascist movements from the 1930s Europe to the “Antifa” movements we see on the streets today. The history of anti-fascism, it seems, is stuck on repeat, with the same arguments over free speech and uncompromising resistance cropping up repeatedly.”
According to the Washington Examiner: “while we’re not investigating Antifa as Antifa – that’s an ideology and we don’t investigate ideologies – we are investigating several what we would call anarchist-extremist investigations where we have properly predicated subjects of people who are motivated to commit violent criminal activity on kind of an Antifa ideology.”
“President Obama allowed Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter to run wild during his reign. Obama even rewarded riot-inciters and those who support killing police were hosting them at the Obama’s White House. Instead of protecting citizens and their property, some politicians even admit pro-rioting policies openly as when then-Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake (D), at the time a DNC executive, acknowledged in 2015 that authorities “gave those who wished to destroy space to do that.”
In short, Antifa appears to be just as violent as the jihadist and offers perfect cover for jihad.
“…when the laws have ceased to be executed, as this can only come from the corruption of the republic, the state is already lost.” – Montesquieu
“More whites were brought as slaves to North Africa than blacks brought as slaves to the United States or to the 13 colonies from which it was formed. White slaves were still being bought and sold in the Ottoman Empire, decades after blacks were freed in the United States.” – Thomas Sowell
“Racism is not dead, but is on life support – kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as racists.” – Thomas Sowell
Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa are only two of over 20 communist organizations who are looting and destroying private property throughout America on the pretense of protests against police for the murder of a career criminal black man. Corporations, food outlets, beauty supply houses, politicians, Hollywood elites, sports figures and others are caving to the totalitarian Marxists because they don’t want to be called racist. They are taking a knee to the anarchists of BLM.
Dr. Ben Carson is trying to convince President Trump to “take a knee.” Laodicean Christian entertainers like Joel Osteen and Paula White took part in Blackout Tuesday, started by BLM who advocates for the tearing down of the fabric of our society by violent protest. Joel Osteen, miffed that the race riots seemed to have cancelled out the LGBTQ Pride Marches, decided to march instead with Black Lives Matter and Antifa for Black Out Tuesday in Houston. He had plenty of company when his Laodicean buddies like John Hagee, Paula White, Tony Evans and others stepped in to join him. Paula White is an aide to President Trump.
As for me and mine, we only bend our knees and bow our heads to God Almighty.
Photo Ops
The mainstream media (MSM) comrades of the Democrat Party accused President Trump of using the Bible for a photo op when he visited the anarchist torched St. John’s Episcopal Church across from the White House. President Trump and Melania were married in the Episcopal Church although she is of the Catholic faith and he was raised in the Presbyterian Church.
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley apologized over his role in Trump’s church visit saying he believed it compromised the military’s apolitical image. Trump doesn’t abide by Deep State rules and Milley should have known that. Perhaps Milley is right, dressed in Army fatigues and showing up with our president at a famous burned-out church because communists set it afire created an image of the military involved in domestic politics…but the anarchists are not simply domestic; they are worldwide communist revolutionaries.
Yet for all the MSM condemnation and vilifying of the president, nothing was said about the photo op of Democrats kneeling for eight minutes and 46 seconds in the Capitol Visitor Center. And to make it worse, they donned Ghana/Nigerian Kente cloth tapestries around their necks and masks to honor career criminal George Floyd who was killed by a police officer. They were slammed for doing this.
Kente cloths worn by Democrats during this photo op have been verified by USA Today fact-checker as being worn by African slave traders.
Not to be outdone by their Democratic comrades, the FBI also took a knee supporting BLM. It is an assembly of political grievance activists that includes the Nation of Islam (Farrakhan) who supplied security for George Floyd’s funeral and the New Black Panther Party (NBPP). The BLM are also working in coordination with the pro-communist Antifa (Anti-fascists) and Muslim Brotherhood.
When the FBI takes a knee to support BLM they are openly aligning with Antifa, the Nation of Islam and the violent advocacy it carries; the very overthrow of our government by communist anarchists and totalitarians. This is another Bolshevik Revolution and our top cops are bowing to our communist enemies.
Court documents show that George Floyd’s profile reads like a career criminal who was sentenced to jail at least five times. He was involved in drug abuse, theft, criminal trespassing, aggravated robbery as well as entering a woman’s home and pointing a gun at her pregnant stomach while looking for drugs and money. He was sentenced to five years in prison in 2009. Nevertheless, the man did not deserve to be murdered by a cop with 18 previous complaints over his 19-year career as a police officer, 16 of which were closed without discipline.
Sure, black lives matter! But every other life matters too, and you never see BLM at abortion clinics. It’s okay to murder millions upon millions of black babies in their mothers’ wombs, but that’s not what BLM cares about despite the fact that Margaret Sanger hated blacks and wanted to rid the world of them.
No, BLM is all about hating whitey and the police, overturning our capitalist society and destroying our history. BLM was established as an online platform in 2013 by three Marxist revolutionary women, Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi who called themselves “queers.” Their objective was to stoke black rage and galvanize a protest movement in response to the acquittal of George Zimmerman, the “white Hispanic” who was tried for murder and manslaughter after he had shot and killed a black Florida teenager named Trayvon Martin in a highly publicized February 2012 altercation.
At a BLM rally in New York City in 2014, the marchers chanted, “What do we want? Dead cops. When do we want it? Now.” They call the police “pigs” as shown on the stockings of Colin Kaepernick during football practice, and say, “Fry them like bacon,” and “Pigs in a blanket,” referring to dead police officers in body bags.
On a BLM affiliated radio program, the hosts laughed at the recent assassination of a white Texas deputy; boasted that blacks were like lions who could prevail in a “race war” against whites; happily predicted that “we will witness more executions and killing of white people and cops than we ever have before,” and declared that, “It’s open season on killing white people and crackas.” These same anarchists have screamed at CNN reporters that they’ll kill all white babies, but they don’t realize that far more black babies are murdered daily by abortion.
Corporations are giving millions to these communist revolutionary mobs, while no one is helping the businesses destroyed by the BLM anarchists.
BLM’s Radical Marxist Founders
Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza, and Opel Tometi
Alicia Garza is a self-described “queer” social-justice activist (social justice v. justice) who reveres the Marxist revolutionary, former Black Panther, and convicted cop-killer Assata Shakur for her contributions to the “Black Liberation Movement.” (Shakur killed an officer in cold blood, was tried and convicted, escaped prison and fled to Cuba. She died in 2019.) Garza is likewise a great admirer of Angela Davis (another Marxist and former Black Panther who was even funded by the Lutheran Church in America in the 80s), Ella Baker (an avowed socialist who had ties to the Communist Party USA and the Weather Underground), and Audre Lorde (a black Marxist lesbian feminist).
The Weather Underground was headed by none other than Barack Obama’s good friend, Bill Ayers who participated in the bombings of New York City Police Department headquarters in 1970, the United States Capitol building in 1971, and the Pentagon in 1972, as he noted in his 2001 book, Fugitive Days. Ayers said, “Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at.”
Garza agreed with Ayers and stated that Americans would be better off if the nation’s “corroded and corrupt system” of policing were to be terminated.
Patrisse Cullors came out as a self-described “queer” when she was 16 and was kicked out of her home. She identifies strongly with the famed abolitionist, Harriet Tubman, who is scheduled to replace President Andrew Jackson on America’s twenty-dollar bill.
Cullors volunteered with the Los Angeles-based think tank known as the Labor and Community Strategies Center (LCSC). A few years later, the Center hired Cullors to train high-school students in political organizing tactics. Cullors herself was trained to be an activist by former Weather Underground leader Eric Mann. She worked for LCSC from 2001-12.
In 2012, Cullors became interested in an ACLU lawsuit against Los Angeles deputies who were allegedly beating black inmates. She and her friends organized protests and 48 like-minded people joined her and Dignity and Power Now (DPN) was formed. It is dedicated to “protecting incarcerated people and their families in Los Angeles.” Cullors still heads her organization which is also a front group for the Marxist/Leninist Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO).
Cullors joined representatives from the Dream Defenders, (whose long-term goal is to cultivate “a new generation” of young radical activists) as well as a number of likeminded anti-police-brutality protesters in taking a 10-day trip to the Palestinian Territories in the West Bank in 2015. Their objective was to publicly draw a parallel between what they defined as Israeli oppression of the Palestinians in the Middle East, and police violence against blacks in the United States. Again, fake news, and false doctrine…these communists are aligned with Islamist terrorists.
In 2015, Cullors spoke at the annual Netroots Nation convention in Phoenix where she exhorted fellow blacks to “rise the f**k up” and “burn everything down!” She also said that the allegedly high incidence of black-on-black crime “is a myth.”
In 2016, she and her two BLM co-founders, Garza and Tometi were special guests of Rep. Barbara Lee at President Obama’s final State of the Union address. And that same year, Fortune magazine named Cullors and her two BLM co-founders to its list of the “50 of the most influential world leaders.”
Opel Tometi was born to parents who had illegally immigrated from Nigeria and she describes herself as a “believer and practitioner of liberation theology.” Since January 2011, she has been a national organizer for Black Alliance for Just Immigration (BAJI), a George Soros–funded group that strives to advance “immigrant rights and racial justice” for “African-American, Afro-Latino, African and Caribbean immigrant communities.” Tometi’s official BAJI profile describes her as “a Black feminist writer, communications strategist and cultural organizer.”
In 2010, she condemned SB 1070, an Arizona law that authorized state police to check with federal authorities on the immigration status of criminal suspects, and views Voter ID laws as racist schemes designed to disenfranchise nonwhite voters. And in late 2013, Tometi visited the White House and met with Heather Foster, Obama’s then lead liaison to the black community.
In her January 2015 piece, “Celebrating MLK Day: Reclaiming Our Movement Legacy,” Tometi calls for the development of a “new” and “radical” contingent of “Black trans people, Black queer people, Black immigrants, Black incarcerated people and formerly incarcerated people, Black millennials, Black women, low income Black people, and Black people with disabilities” to lead social-justice activism in the United States. Tometi is also active in a network called Black Organizing for Leadership and Dignity (BOLD), which teaches black activists how to help build a “social justice infrastructure.”
Tometi spoke to the United Nations General Assembly in 2016 on issues related to race, white supremacy, and police terror. Now African countries are circulating a draft resolution calling for a high-level investigation into U.S. racism and police violence by the United Nations Human Rights Council.
In Trevor Loudon’s book, Barack Obama and the Enemies Within, he states, “Those who surround Obama fall into a wide category of radicals, Marxists, communists, and Americans who have joined together in a coordinated effort to overthrow capitalism and the Republic of the United States of America.”
CNN’s Van Jones was hired as Obama’s “Green Jobs” czar, but had to resign because of his Maoist affiliations. Jones was a founding organizer and leader of the communist revolutionary organization, Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM). The organization had its roots in a group protesting “U.S. Imperialism” during the Persian Gulf War of 1991. The leftist blog Machete 48 identifies STORM’s influences as “third-worldMarxism (and an often vulgar Maoism).”
Presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama said, “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” Why? Who is he fighting?
On October 30, 2008, presidential candidate Barack Obama said, “We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” In May of that same year, Michelle Obama told us what they had planned when she said, “We are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.” Was she referring to the anarchist destruction we’re seeing today?
Obama’s Organizing for Action (OFA) is over 32,000 strong and it is his “civilian army.” They have several paid employees, all of whom make six figure salaries according to the organization’s 2018 990. Obama has an army of agitators and rioters and his former Attorney General, Eric Holder is working to influence the nation’s redistricting maps for democrats.
OFA is a nonprofit 501(c)4 organization and community organizing project that advocates for the agenda of former President Obama. The organization is officially non-partisan, but its agenda and policies are strongly allied with the Democratic Party and how to destroy President Trump. They even have a training manual in how to protest against President Trump, taken from Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals.
Obama and Mandela
Nelson Mandela was pleased that Obama won the 2008 election. He even wrote him a letter congratulating him on his win. Obama quoted Mandela throughout his political career and when Mandela died, Obama’s tribute extoled the virtues of Marxist/Leninist Mandela.
Mandela and other African National Congress (A.N.C.) leaders formed a military wing called Spear of the Nation. He became the first commander in chief of the guerrilla army. He trained to fight, worked to obtain weapons for the group, but he never saw combat.
In early 1990, Mandela was freed from prison and turned South Africa into a nation of black hatred against white farmers. Here is his timeline. This is the story Obama reveres, and the story that echoes now in America. Mandela’s nephew later went on an axe rampage against whites.
In today’s South Africa, if you want to cultivate the land, you need training and it comes from Israel special forces in a two-week tactical survival course. They teach how to ward off the enemy, a practical guide to staying alive. Watch the five-minute video.
Obama said, “I am one of the countless millions who drew inspiration from Nelson Mandela’s life. My very first political action, the first thing I ever did that involved an issue or a policy or politics, was a protest against apartheid. I studied his words and his writings. The day that he was released from prison gave me a sense of what human beings can do when they’re guided by their hopes and not by their fears.”
Really President Obama? You drew inspiration from an avowed communist who destroyed South African white farmers who now have to live in protected communities, in order to keep from being slaughtered? You revere the rape and slaughter of pregnant women and children and their farmer fathers hacked to death by Mandela’s black forces? Apparently so, and we know your words have inflamed those who hate America’s whites and are destroying their property today.
In October of 2018, I wrote an article exposing the truth of communist Nelson Mandela and his wife, Winnie who took joy in “necklacing” those whites and blacks who disagreed with her husband’s apartheid destruction.
The toxic genocide of whites in South Africa is a direct result of Mandela’s Marxist apartheid. Mandela was the man who went from prisoner to president and became the destroyer of South African whites.
Around the globe, Nelson Mandela is held up as an icon of justice, equality, and peaceful struggle for right. The problem with this image, however, is that it is entirely false. The record demonstrates beyond a shadow of a doubt that Nelson Mandela was not a peace-loving Freedom fighter, but a communist revolutionary who reveled in violence, promoted white genocide, and facilitated the Marxist subversion of South Africa.
Under ANC rule, South Africa has joined BRICS. BRICS is an international coalition of anti-Western states headed by Russia and Red China. The dominant members are Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. Together, these states have attempted to offset Western power and shift power to themselves. Nelson Mandela was a Communist Tool.
Conclusion
1,700,000 firearms were purchased in May of this year, many by people who have never owned a firearm. We don’t want another civil war, but the communist anarchists are pushing for it.

The sex trade is a haven for racial violence in this country. It violates the most basic human rights of women and girls of color, largely with impunity, as it has for centuries. Under chattel slavery in the antebellum South, enslaved black women were commonly raped by their owners and owners’ friends. Sometimes they were abused so that their forced reproductive labor would produce children that the owner wouldn’t have to bother to buy.
Some women, particularly those who were light-skinned, were sold as sex slaves to white men in the euphemistically-named “fancy” trade. Just outside Washington, DC, Isaac Franklin and John Armfield had the largest, wealthiest slave trading firm in the United States in the 1820s and 1830s. Franklin was one of the main pimps for the New Orleans sex trafficking market. Both men joked in their letters to each other about the women they routinely raped.
This pervasive sexual violence was not only admitted by the perpetrators, but decried by numerous abolitionists. Harriet Jacobs, a formerly enslaved woman, wrote that as a 15-year-old she was subjected to daily sexual abuse at the hands of her owner. Frederick Douglass called slave owners legalized brothel keepers, and averred that at least a million enslaved women were “consigned to a life of revolting prostitution” in the South.
Abolitionist Fanny Kemble, who eventually divorced her slave-owning husband, wrote after observing his plantation that “almost every Southern planter” had a family of color from sexual abuse of enslaved women. In other words, American slavery’s sexual exploitation was well known and not disputed, even if it is not prominent in contemporary memory.
And race-based sexual exploitation did not end with slavery.
During the Jim Crow era, red light districts were placed in black neighborhoods and segregation did not stop white men from frequenting them. A similar story played out in the North, with Southern black women being promised big city factory jobs and then forced into prostitution when they arrived. This sex trafficking was legal, as black women were unprotected by early anti-prostitution laws.
And race-based sexual exploitation and violence continues today.
Those sold in prostitution are disproportionately women and girls of color and those buying prostituted people are disproportionately white men. Survivor-leader Vednita Carter notes that strip clubs and massage parlors are “typically zoned in Black neighborhoods” and white men still go to them to buy sex.
According to Rights4Girls, 52% of children trafficked for sex in King County, Washington are black and 84% are girls – even though “Black girls only comprise 1.1% of the general population.” Similarly, in South Dakota, Native people comprise 8% of the population, yet 40% of sex trafficking victims are Native women. And in Louisiana, 49% of sex trafficking victims are black girls (who only make up 19% of the state’s youth).
Relatedly, girls of color are disproportionately represented in the criminal justice system, often as a direct result of sexual abuse. Girls of color are often arrested because someone is prostituting them when they should be treated like child sex trafficking victims. They are also charged with truancy after running away from abusive homes. In South Carolina, 81% of girls in the juvenile justice system are victims of sexual violence. The same is true for 76% of girls in Oregon’s juvenile justice system.
And race-based sexual exploitation and violence flourishes online.
The pornography industry traffics in racist themes, including racial stereotypes and verbal abuse directed at black women, on top of the violence that is already present in pornography. There is no form of degradation, humiliation, torture, or abuse that pornography hasn’t sexualized and racism is no exception. In the days following the terrible police-perpetrated murder of George Floyd, Pornhub – a massive mainstream site – hosted and monetized George Floyd and police-brutality-themed pornography. Pornhub also has Holocaust pornography and slavery role play targeting black women, such as these videos.
When racism is labeled “sex,” it apparently becomes politically invisible.
But it is textbook feminism that private violence – including when it is commercialized, and especially when it is sexual – is still violence. Hundreds of American cities are protesting racial violence committed by police right now. The American sex industry is rife with sexual and racial violence, human rights abuses with roots deep in American slavery. Black women continue be sold, tortured, used, and sometimes killed.
To echo Vednita Carter’s cry from thirty years ago: when will we be outraged about it?

After Monday’s wildly off-base decision, most liberals should have been out celebrating. But despite being handed a judicial gift — an LGBT victory they’d have never managed democratically — Democrats didn’t stop to party. They were already back on the Senate floor, demanding more. Now that they’ve got the Supreme Court taking a match to religious liberty, they’re apparently hoping Congress will finish the job.They’re the Party of Never Satisfied. Democrats, who couldn’t get Congress to go where SCOTUS did, isn’t even stopping to savor the moment. Like Obergefell, they’re already on to phase two: turning what’s left of Americans’ freedom to a pile of smoldering ash. As far as they’re concerned, it wasn’t enough that six justices magically redefined human biology. Or that faith-loving Americans are about to be legally tormented like never before. After Monday their goal is bigger: using the court’s decision to bash through whatever religious barriers to their agenda still exist. And the “Equality” Act is the way they plan to try.
There’s just one problem — Americans were never on board with these changes in the first place. And if they wanted Congress to act, it certainly wouldn’t be to make things worse. But this is about tolerance, the Left will say. Americans want to end discrimination, they’ll argue. Well, of course they do. We all do. But not when “ending discrimination” means a drag queen in every library, a man in every girls’ restroom, or an atheist teacher in every Christian school. As most conservative senators argued yesterday, the only “equal” thing about this idea is how much damage it does to every facet of American life.
Senate Democrats, who apparently believe six people’s opinion makes a national consensus, tried on Thursday to fast-track their bill to wipe religious freedom off the map. It was a bold move, considering that most Americans were still in shock over the fact that the court bypassed Congress to elevate “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in the first place. That will already, FRC’s Travis Weber pointed out on “Washington Watch,” spark years of litigation. But liberals want to eat their cake and force you to bake it too.
Fortunately, under the Senate’s rules, you can’t hotline a bill if even one Senator objects. And Senators Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Mike Lee (R-Utah), and James Lankford (R-Okla.) dutifully pushed on the brakes. In stirring speeches that spelled out the scope of this devastation, they looked at their colleagues across the aisle and asked what happened to civil disagreement? What happened to coexistence? Why, Senator Lankford asked, are you pushing a piece of legislation that decides the rights of one side matter more than the rights of the other? “We in America have tried to be able to find those spots, where the rights collide of the two individuals and to be able to work it out among each other.” That’s impossible, he points out, when you take religious freedom off the table.
And protecting religious freedom, Hawley points out, wasn’t just conservatives’ idea. “[The Religious Freedom Protection Act] was sponsored in the House by then-Representative Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), and it was sponsored in this chamber by Senator Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and signed by President Bill Clinton into law… It was bipartisan is my point. To put it mildly…” Now, he shakes his head, Democrats are the ones who want to “steamroll” it as part of this process. Why, he wanted to know? So that liberals can force taxpayers to pay for abortions and gender reassignments against their will? So that doctors and nurses will have to participate against theirs?
What about adoption agencies, Hawley pressed on, “some of which had been helping birth mothers find a safe and loving and permanent home for more than 100 years? It would force them out of business. It would coerce those who don’t want to speak or who hold different beliefs into adopting this set of practices and principles and beliefs at work… These doctors, these nurses, these faith-based agencies, I submit to you that this is not the way to find consensus in America. This shunting aside of the constitutional rights of sincere, well-meaning people of faith is not the way to proceed.”
“We, in America,” Senator Lankford insisted, “have tried to work together in all of our differences… to accommodate one another. The Equality Act does not do that. I wish it did. It changes everything dramatically.” And Americans are no more ready for that than they were for a handful of unelected judges to change the course of history. This lawlessness has to stop, and it’s Congress’s job to try.

If you think the Democrats have gone off the rails with their newest call to defund the police, you’d be wrong. It’s just the latest step in the left’s long-plotted scheme to transform America to socialism. We are one election away. If we react to this wrongly, we are done as a country of law and order.
Last week, President Trump put out a call to send in the troops. Not the National Guard, the military. As if on cue, the typical “deep state” military brass emerged to condemn him as unstable. Many of you recoiled in agreement. Once again, as if on cue, you believed everything they said. Have you learned nothing over the past four years?
The Washington Post published an article headlined, “How Mattis reached his breaking point — and decided to speak out against Trump”. This was designed to make Americans believe General Mattis is a patriot above all else. His supposed “long” silence, as the article explained, earned him a badge of honor. But, is that really deserved?
To believe Mattis kept silent previously is simply a lie. I wrote about his controversial resignation in my book, Rules for Deplorables: A Primer for Fighting Radical Socialism (RFD). After “Trump announced his decision for a troop withdrawal from Syria, Mattis vehemently and publicly opposed. In his resignation letter [December 2018], Mattis wrote that, ‘[B]ecause you have the right to have a Secretary of Defense whose views are better aligned with yours on these and other subjects, I believe it is right for me to step down from my position.” (RFD, pg. 205) Gee, general, thanks for your duty to country.
Mattis knew Trump’s policy well before he joined the President’s team. So, why accept the position in the first place? “The naysayers claim[ed] that as Mattis’ commander, Trump should listen to his generals. Hogwash. Just because a soldier has reached the rank of general, does not make him right on all issues.” (RFD, pg. 207) (For more on how Mattis betrayed his Commander-in-Chief, read my blog from August 31, 2019 entitled, “General Mattis IS the Resistance”.)
Did Mattis fade away into retirement and stoically withhold speaking against his Commander-in-Chief? No. He wrote a book, remember?
Within just six months, in a tell-all no less, he accused the President of being internally divisive especially via his tweeting. “What concerns me most,” Mattis wrote, “is not our external adversaries; [i]t is our internal divisiveness.” In other words, he blamed Trump for all things racist in America. Never mind that Obama stoked racial flames and increased division in our country at every turn.
According to the author of an article entitled, “How Obama Left Us More Racially Divided Than Ever”, one’s opinion of our country is determined by how one views American history. “If you think America is a land of oppression instead of a land of freedom, you will sow social discord. That’s President Obama’s legacy.” I agree. It also explains why we are witnessing such turmoil in our Democrat-controlled cities today. Democrats tend to see the evils in America, Republicans see the good.
With the benefit of hindsight, then, who was right about Syria? The answer may help us understand how best to quell the unrest in our own cities today.
Because of Trump’s pull-out and harsh sanctions against Syria, preventing nearly every country in the world from enabling Assad financially, nearly 80% of his people are now living in abject poverty. Protesters are chanting “[h]e who starves his people is a traitor.” Indeed, Trump’s strategy has not only weakened Assad himself in the region, it has caused massive hardships for his benefactors, our enemies Russia and Iran.
Our President’s policy in Syria could well represent what should become the “Trump Doctrine”; and, it may be remembered as far more effective than anything any general has done during our 18-year war in the Middle East. Will it work here at home?
On June 1, at an impromptu speech in the Rose Garden, Trump threatened to use the Insurrection Act of 1807 to quell the violence in our cities. Shortly after, he made the now-infamous walk to Washington, D.C.’s historic St. John’s Episcopal Church.
General Mattis immediately attacked Trump, accusing the President of trying “to divide us”. He added that, we “are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort. We are witnessing the consequences of three years without mature leadership”. Wow. That sounds suspiciously like the New York Times’ op-ed letter by “Anonymous” several years ago.
Part of that letter, if you recall, criticized Trump for being immature. “Anonymous” stated that Trump’s “erratic behavior would be more concerning if it weren’t for unsung heroes in…the White House…. [I]n this chaotic era…Americans should know that there are adults in the room….” (RFD, pg. 191). Could the letter have been referring to Mattis as one of the “unsung heroes”? If true, he’s more dangerous than I thought.
Mattis has also now said that “[w]e must reject and hold accountable those in office who would make a mockery of our Constitution.” Hold accountable? Sounds like a set-up for Trump’s arrest once out of office.
The New York Post reports: “Under the Civil War-era Posse Comitatus Act, federal troops are prohibited from performing domestic law enforcement actions such as making arrests, seizing property or searching people. In extreme cases, however, the president can invoke the Insurrection Act, which allows the use of active-duty or National Guard troops for law enforcement.” It sounds as though Trump would be within his right to send in the troops should things get further out-of-control.
Other top brass weighed in this week to criticize Trump, e.g., former secretaries of defense Ash Carter and William Perry. Carter, a Republican, served under Obama. In 2017, he wrote that if soldiers acted like Trump, he would have “fired people”. No love lost there.
Perry, who served under Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, criticized Trump in 2017 for his supposed reckless handling of North Korea, saying he was bringing us closer to a nuclear war. I guess he was wrong.
Former chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey, Mike Mullen, and Richard Myers have piled on, too. Dempsey, another Obama loyalist, railed against Trump in 2017 for the President’s plans to pardon some of our military’s finest warriors. Most had been convicted of war crimes while balancing trying to save fellow soldiers against impossible rules of engagement imposed by Obama. Dempsey called Trump’s pardons a “Bad message. Bad precedent. Abdication of moral responsibility. Risk to us.”Soldiers be damned. Trump did it anyway.
Mike Mullen served under George W. Bush and Obama. In 2017, he condemned Trump’s “talk of ‘fire and fury’” as bad diplomacy with our adversaries.
Richard Myers now says he’s “glad” he didn’t have to work for Trump. I’m sure the feeling is mutual.
Other prominent voices condemning Trump this past week have come from Mitt Romney, Colin Powell, Lisa Murkowski, and John McCain’s widow. Like those mentioned above, all have one thing in common: hatred for Donald J. Trump. That should tell us all everything we need to know.
The most revealing comment about Trump’s threat to use the military to retake our cities, though, came from former U.S. Forces-Afghanistan commander Gen. John Allen. He said that, “The slide of the United States into illiberalism may well have begun on June 1, 2020. Remember the date. It may well signal the beginning of the end of the American experiment.” Did you catch that? Trump’s handling of the violent protests, to him, demonstrates an anti-liberal intention.
Indeed, every one of these anti-Trumpers is known for the same globalist leanings as shared by liberals. Thus, whether they call themselves Republicans, Independents, or Democrats, their ideologies gel. That commonality has hijacked the killing of George Floyd in a very dangerous way.
On June 3, the Floyd family sent a letter to the United Nations pleading for intervention. “When a group of people of any nation have been systematically deprived of their universal human right to life by its government for decades, it must appeal to the international community for its support and to the United Nations for its intervention,” Floyd’s family attorney Ben Crump said in a press release. This, my fellow Americans, is what all the hoopla is about. And if you think it is not orchestrated by leftist Democrats — and not the Floyd family — you have not been paying attention.
The generals, the Democrats, the Republican elitists, the Democrat Socialists, and the “deep state” are working together towards one common goal and President Trump knows it: a One World Government or New World Order. Defunding the police is a priority.
In their letter, the Floyd family asked the UN “for its help in disarming police officers in the United States of America.” The left is driving the players to reach that very outcome. Could that be why the generals are so vehemently against Trump calling up the military? And, whose side would the military take, the generals or Trump’s?
In Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, written in the 70s, he describes thirteen tactics for the left to use in transforming America to socialism. Tactic #10, “the major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure on the opposition”, is upon us. The formation of Antifa and Black Lives Matter began years ago. I warned about them in my book. The attempted coup of Trump’s Administration, the impeachment investigations, the over-exaggerated shut-downs based on phony models, and now the attacks by the generals were all timed to culminate in a complete destruction of the American free-market system. If Venezuela is any example, the transformation could be quick.
It’s no accident that the cities hit hardest by the pandemic, riots, looting and calls for defunding police are all controlled by Democrats. Everything happening now is a three-fold gain. The citizens want free stuff. The Democrat leaders of these cities and states are goading Trump hoping he’ll be blamed for the chaos and lose the election. He cannot fall for that. But, for the top brass and leaders of the country, the goal is on a much grander scale.
President Trump knows this. If you refuse to believe Democrats would sell out their own people, congratulations. You’re playing right into their hands. Alinsky instructs his followers to win by any means necessary. Ethics be damned.
If our President understands Alinsky tactics the way I believe he does, he already has his strategy by using the left’s tactics against them. And, his threat to send in the military will be his last and final move. Before that, however, he has plenty of less risky options available. Among them are Alinsky’s tactics #4 and #11. It’s the only way to win this battle and I believe he knows it.
First, he must allow the blue states to completely fail. Yes, even if it means allowing them to defund their police.
Tactic #4 means to “make the enemy live up to their own book of rules”. Democrats claim to loathe the police? Let them live without order for a while. Why interfere? It’s a state’s right to self-determination. Let ‘em have it. The citizens will eventually beg their leaders to intervene. But, it will be too late.
Blue cities were imploding from poor management even before the pandemic. Now, they’re on life-support. Crime is already increasing. Many will be injured or killed, there’s no escaping that. The chaos will continue until the citizenry rise up and take their cities and states back. Once they themselves are chanting “he who starves his people is a traitor”, they will turn to Trump for help in getting federal bailouts. But, he must refuse, unless concessions are made.
During the 60s, a couple of sociology professors from Columbia University wrote a series of strategy papers designed to implode the American free-market system. Richard Cloward and Francis Fox Piven (Cloward-Piven) believed that if they could bloat our welfare systems with enrollees, eventually it would go broke. Once that happened, the federal government would have to step in and save the program by infusing it with taxpayer money. Their plan was to continue the strategy until America became a 100% Socialist-controlled country. They never dreamed either political party would join their scheme. Imagine their surprise when the Democrats did, in exchange for votes by giving away “free” stuff. (RFD, pg. 26)
The plan worked so well that by the mid-70s New York City, Democrat-controlled for years, was nearly bankrupt. The Mayor begged then-President Ford to bail them out. At first he refused saying they got themselves into that mess, they could get themselves out. That was the right decision, painful though it may have been. Unfortunately, it was an election year, much like now. Under severe pressure from weak Republicans and Democrats alike, Ford caved. New York City hasn’t learned its lesson to this day. (RFD, pg. 27). The left and Democrats have been partners ever since.
Things are about to get really ugly. Especially if the Governors call in the United Nations. That’s when the real showdown will begin. But, it’s the only way our country can survive what’s coming.
Trump should use Alinsky Tactic #11 against Democrats. By “pushing a negative hard enough, it will break through to a positive”. The chaos caused by Democrats should, hopefully, convince the residents to realize the consequences of out-of-control progressive policies. Trump must require the banning of sanctuary cities that rape a city’s resources dry. No more talk about abolishing the police or I.C.E. Wild spending would have to be under control. Pensions would need overhauls. Voting oversight must be put in place. Illegal immigrants should be deported and not allowed I.D. cards. Hopefully, then, citizens will come to understand the luxuries of the freedoms we have via the law and order our systems provide. And, if they don’t, let them eat cake!
Yes, we have a long road ahead to regain control of our cities and states. But, the alternative is unimaginable.
The Progressives have been working their “Plan” for years, while so many Americans have been asleep. Others of us have been warning for decades that this day was coming. Many have called us conspiracy nuts. We’ve been ridiculed. We’ve been silenced. And we’ve been isolated. No more.
There isn’t time for that now. We must unify against the greatest threat we’ve faced since the Civil War. We still have a chance to save this great country of ours. Otherwise, we can stand idly by while watching America burn to the ground. I won’t give up … not so long as we have a President fighting for us every day.

A predator is defined as an animal that naturally preys on others. Predation is a natural and accepted fact of life in the wild animal kingdom – eat or be eaten is a matter of survival.
A predator is also defined as a person or group that ruthlessly exploits others. Predation is an unacceptable fact of life in the civilized world of ordered liberty and mutuality where predation is a matter of domination, not survival.
Sexual predators live in this group. Sexual assaults, including rape and childhood sexual abuse, are crimes of power, dominance, and submission. Political predators are a variation on the same theme of power. Like sexual predators, political predators commit crimes of dominance and submission against unsuspecting members of society. This is how it works.
Political predators disguise their motives. No stranger ever seduced a child with spinach. Marxist political predators have been seducing American children with leftist anti-American indoctrination in public schools since 1979 when Jimmy Carter established the Department of Education. Political predators launched their Culture War war on America with a disinformation campaign promising social justice and income equality that begins in kindergarten.
Barack Obama, political predator-in-chief, escalated the propaganda campaign against American children with Common Core and its anti-American leftist narrative of moral relativism, historical revisionism, and political correctness. During his seditious two terms, Obama aligned himself with the equally anti-American Islamist Muslim Brotherhood.
The longer the radical leftist Democrat party aligns itself with the antisemitic, sharia compliant, Jihadi narrative of submission, the closer the radical Democrat party platform resembles the tyranny of Islamist rhetoric and supremacist sharia law. The word Islam means submission.
Islamists deny Israel’s right to exist as a sovereign country. Today, the leftist Democrat party and its colluding Muslim Brotherhood Islamists in Congress deny not only Israel’s right to exist, they also deny America’s right to exist as a sovereign constitutional republic. The leftist/Islamist/globalist axis of political predators is attempting to take power in November and force America to submit to axis domination.
Aspirations for world domination and the creation of a New World Order are nothing new. English aristocrat Lord Bertrand Russell articulated the plan for the globalist elite’s New World Order in his 1952 classic, The Impact of Science on Society.
After WWII it was obvious that America could not be defeated militarily. Our enemies did not quietly into the night, they reconstituted themselves as social justice warriors with a plan for educational indoctrination that would subvert American culture and destroy America from within. It was Bertrand Russell who explained the value of educational propaganda in the disinformation war:
page 27-28 (Routledge Classics 2016 edition):
It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment.
Education should aim at destroying free will so that pupils thus schooled, will be incapable throughout the rest of their lives of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. . . . Influences of the home are obstructive; not much can be done unless indoctrination begins before the age of ten; in order to condition students, verses set to music and repeatedly intoned are very effective. . . . It is for a future scientist to make these maxims precise and to discover exactly how much it costs per head to make children believe that snow is black. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for more than one generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen.
The leftist educational indoctrination launched by Jimmy Carter in 1979 and amplified by Barack Obama, fully actuated the sinister plan of weaponizing education described by Bertrand Russell. The radical leftist Democrat war on America that begins in K-12 ends in anarchy on the streets of America today. The political predators are exploiting indoctrinated Americans and supplying them with financing, bricks, and Molotov cocktails to riot and burn America to the ground.
Political predator-in-chief, Barack Obama, sits in the shadow of the White House directing the 30,000 propagandized members of his Organizing for Action (OFA) “resistance” movement. From his bunker he orchestrates the movements of his shock troops against America-first President Trump. OFA, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, all indoctrinated with the forty-year lie of “institutional racism” are now demanding submission to their black supremacist demands.
The political predators of 21st century America use the Internet for mass social engineering to foment anarchy, race riots, and submission internationally. Anarchy is never the path to peace. It is the tyrannical weapon of political predators who instigate and finance it.
There are no laws without law enforcement. The movement to defund police departments across the country is the planned, paramilitary, tactical strategy to make America totally ungovernable. Overwhelming social chaos will bring calls for a nationalized police force run by “compassionate” radical leftist Democrats who will enforce the leftist narrative taught by Carter’s Department of Education and Obama’s Common Core. The goal of political predators is absolute power.
The infrastructure for a nationalized and then internationalized police force already exists. The International Council for Local Environmental Issues (ICLEI) was formed at the United Nations in New York, September 1990. There are 600 United Nations ICLEI member cities in the United States committed to UN Agenda 21/2030 and its international directives disguised as sustainable environmental policies. United Nations Agenda 21/2030 is the unapologetic globalist movement to create an internationalized New World Order ruled by a one-world government under the auspices of the United Nations. ICLEI has quietly moved into local governments to impose its comprehensive UN Sustainable Development policy dictating international rules for where people live, what they eat, what they drive, how they heat and light apartments or houses.
We have arrived at the time in our history when political predators threaten the extinction of America, our sovereignty, and our constitutional freedoms. The enemies of America are aligned in common cause to defeat America-first President Donald Trump in November. The axis of political predators including leftists, Islamists, globalists, and the communist Chinese who launched the coronavirus, are aligned in common cause to extinguish America as we know her. They do not acknowledge America’s right to exist.
If the axis powers are successful and the Democrats take power in November, the infighting will immediately begin but will not last long. The leftists, including communist organizations Antifa and Black Lives Matter, will lose their globalist funding and dissolve into a paramilitary enforcement organization similar to Hitler’s brownshirts. The foolish sycophants who support leftism and the anarchy it created will be eliminated because there is no place in globalism’s New World Order for agitators including Islamic jihadis.
America must win this war at the ballot box in November while we still have the opportunity to vote.

As statues again come down as our culture is further torn up, something goes unsaid and often unnoticed:
Notable Western historical figures are being condemned as immoral — by the most immoral, decadent, degenerate people among us.
The cultural revolutionaries attacking statues and what they represent, generally speaking:
support prenatal infanticide, which claims one million babies yearly in the U.S. and 40 to 50 million worldwide;
are products of our Sexual Devolution, meaning they’re what we used to call people of “easy virtue”; in fact, they’re often downright depraved;
are vulgar as can be, violating the biblical injunction to rid themselves “of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips”;
support socialism, even though it now can be easily known that it’s a system causing death, destruction and misery.
Moreover, consider the following list of virtues and ask yourself how many these revolutionaries embody as a group: charity, chastity, courage, diligence, kindness, faith, hope, honesty, fortitude, justice, temperance, prudence, patience, forgiveness, humility, and love. Why, could even one of them define “virtue”?
So I say to these civilization destroyers: Who the heck are you, you two-bit degenerates, to look down your noses morally at Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, Christopher Columbus or, for that matter, the Founding Fathers, whom you’re also attacking? You’re not fit to shine their shoes.
Also generally unasked is this: If everyone associated with slavery is to now be demeaned, discredited and dishonored, who’ll make the cut? With slavery once having been ubiquitous in this world, how many prominent people of ages past were not participants in, enablers of or tolerant with respect to the practice?
Famed ancient Greek philosophers Aristotle and Plato, for example, both justified slavery. But historically speaking they weren’t outliers — they were the norm. So a wise person understands that a prerequisite for insight isn’t infallibility, that throwing out the baby with the bathwater (which perhaps appeals to the abortion-crazed) leaves you with an empty past and unguided present.
After all, what would be the result if we did this vis-à-vis technology, language and everything else and rejected all advancements/innovations birthed by people with checkered or “racist” pasts? We’d be left using sticks and stones while grunting.
So is our cultural revolutionaries’ goal their own “Year Zero,” as the past is completely erased? Not exactly, and this brings us to the real prejudice here.
While the rabble rousers claim to be so deeply offended by slavery, interestingly, they never complain about non-Western figures who embraced the practice. Consider Islam’s Mohammed, for example. He was not only a warlord, mass murderer, caravan raider and employer of torture who married a prepubescent girl, but also a slave owner and trader. Yet we never hear leftists rail against his exaltation or imply that his handiwork, the Koran, should be ignored. On the contrary, they’ve often taught children Islam in schools. And no small number of black Americans have embraced that medieval slave owner’s faith.
This double standard was also evident when cultural revolutionaries complained about Orange County, California’s airport being named after late actor John Wayne, who’d made politically incorrect comments about race in a 1971 Playboyinterview. Yet they were mum on Louisville, Kentucky’s airport being renamed, just last year, after an individual who said in a 1975 Playboyinterview, “A black man should be killed if he’s messing with a white woman.”
That individual was late boxer Muhammad Ali.
If the leftists truly cared about slavery and prejudice, they’d actually applaud white people. Whites likely weren’t the first to practice slavery, after all.
But they were the first to end it.
Whites also aren’t the only ones who’ve exhibited prejudice, but they were the first to make taming it a priority.
So what’s really going on here? The most Machiavellian cultural revolutionaries, the puppeteers, aren’t driven by a desire for justice but power. And you attack those whose power you want for yourself. In balkanized Western nations this means characterizing the power structure as white and then attacking it on that basis.
As for the useful-idiot miscreants in the street, they’re not driven by justice but prejudice. Consider that Philadelphia rioters recently defaced the statue of anti-slavery icon Matthias Baldwin, “who dedicated much of his life before, during and after the Civil War to helping black Americans and championing racial equality,” writes the Western Journal.
Of course, the vandals had no idea who Baldwin was and didn’t care. He’s a dead white male. That’s enough.
Oh, by the way, such ignorance reflects the deadly sin of sloth, which includes intellectual laziness. So it’s yet another indicator of the cultural revolutionaries’ moral stature.
In truth, though, it’s not uncommon for people to make moral judgments reflecting their time and place — and themselves. This brings us to our leftists’ moral blindness, to their lack of self-awareness, which relates to their unforgiving nature.
There are two yardsticks available for making moral judgments: the eternal and the ephemeral. The problem with moderns today — especially the subspecies called “leftists” — is that being moral relativists blind to Truth’s existence, they make everything relative to themselves.
When we recognize Truth (by definition universal, eternal, transcendent and correlative to God’s existence) and use it as a yardstick for making moral judgments and assessing others, yes, their flaws are revealed. They’ll pale in comparison to Truth.
But so will we. For Truth is perfect, but we can never be.
So when a Truth-(God) oriented person views the world, he sees people down low, morally, who can only strive for those heavens of virtue. But he also sees himself right beside them, a brother in brokenness. This breeds humility and a forgiving attitude.
The blind to Truth cannot, obviously, use it to make moral judgments and thus must use another guide. This often is what’s most real to them, what feels best to them, something whose existence they can’t deny: their own emotion. Hence the modern credo, “If it feels good, do it.”
The issue, however, is that deifying one’s feelings by making them arbiters of “right” amounts to deification of oneself. For once your emotions become the yardstick for “morality” — “your ‘truth’” — you can begin to see yourself as perfect. After all, how can you be out of conformity with yourself?
But others will never conform to your god-self perfectly. This engenders a perspective where you see yourself occupying the heavens, in Truth’s place, looking down on the flawed ants who may dare defy your will and foil your plans. This breeds arrogance and unforgiving wrath (ergo, the cancel cultists).
As G.K. Chesterton put it, “It is not bigotry to be certain we are right; but it is bigotry to be unable to imagine how we might possibly have gone wrong.” Our cultural revolutionaries, with their corruption-catalyzed cocksureness, are the ultimate bigots.
Yet in accordance with this, saner citizens must also see not only how they might have gone wrong, but how they actually have. Remember that the cultural revolution couldn’t succeed if the wider society loved our culture as much as the miscreants hate it, if its righteous anger matched the mob’s risible rage. Sadly, though, and reflecting the “demoralization” I wrote about last week, most today just don’t have a strong enough emotional attachment to what once was our common culture.
And to the purposeful and passionate go the victories. Eloi get subjugated by Morlocks every time.

Much of the mayhem we see today is linked to fatherlessness.
Around this time we celebrate Father’s Day. But fathers in our culture have not recently appeared very important—at least according to Hollywood and other culture-shapers.
We used to have programs like “Father Knows Best” or “Leave It to Beaver” with a respectable father figure. Then we devolved to Archie Bunker on “All in the Family.” He was the stereotypical bigoted, benighted patriarch who was not worthy of emulation.
Then we devolved to Homer Simpson, the buffoonish dad, who was anything but a role model.
Of course, in many households today, there is no dad. And that’s a serious problem. So many of the children in fatherless homes begin life at a serious disadvantage. The breakdown of the family at large has caused a huge crisis in our society. For instance, statistics show that the majority of prison inmates come from broken families.
Fatherlessness is a serious blight on American life. As the family goes, so goes society. And, contrary to what the left says (who spend much of their energy diminishing traditional gender roles and arguing that whatever “family you choose” is just as good as the real thing), fathers are integral to the life of a child.
Take an example. What is it that is devastating the black community today? Many in our current climate would say the main issue is racism. But sociologically, cultural pathologies are linked closely to poverty. And poverty is linked closely to the structure of the family. Government subsidies (by which the left buys votes) has created a permanent underclass of people by subsidizing fatherlessness and unemployment.
Prior to the Great Society, the rate of illegitimacy in the black community was relatively low and families were intact. And as economist Thomas Sowell points out, the poverty rate for African-Americans fell by 40 percent from 1940 to 1960—just before the “Great Society” welfare programs. Today, the illegitimacy rate is over 75%, which is devastating—by virtually all accounts.
I remember many years ago when I attended an “evangelical church” in Chicago that was a little on the liberal side. One of the lay leaders, a man, got up and prayed, and he said, “Our Father, Our Mother….”
I was thinking, “What?!?” So I asked him after the service about the unorthodox prayer.
His response was that that church was in the shadow of the most notorious housing project in the city, Cabrini-Green. Fatherlessness was a huge problem there. Most people growing up there had a negative feeling about their earthly father because he was absent or drunk or abusive. Cabrini-Green was such a disaster that it has since been torn down.
In his book, Hearts of the Fathers, Charles Crismier notes that many American children today lack the “God-ordered earthly anchor for soul security” because dad is not in the home. He notes, “It is well known but seldom discussed, whether in the church house or the White House, that fatherlessness lies at the root of nearly all of the most glaring problems that plague our modern, now post-Christian life.”
For example, take the issue of poverty. Says Crismier, “Children living in female-headed homes have a poverty rate of 48 percent, more than four times the rate for children living in homes with their fathers and mothers.”
He points out that fathers are so important in the Bible, beginning with God the Father, that the words “father,” “fathers,” and “forefathers” appear 1,573 times.
Obviously, children in fatherless homes can survive and even thrive despite that handicap. But what a better thing it is to follow God’s design for the family.
There’s also a link between fatherlessness and unbelief. About 20 years ago, when he was a professor at New York University, Dr. Paul Vitz wrote a book, The Faith of the Fatherless. In that book he showed how famous atheists and skeptics in history had virtually no father figure in their life or a very negative father.
As examples, he cites Voltaire, Bertrand Russell, H. G. Wells, Friedrich Nietzsche, Jean Paul Sartre, Thomas Hobbs, and Sigmund Freud, among others.
Conversely, Vitz found that strong believers often had positive fathers or father figures. In an interview for Christian television, he told me, “I would say the biggest problem in the country is the breakdown of the family, and the biggest problem in the breakdown in the family is the absence of the father. Our answer is to recover the faith, particularly for men, and we’ll recover fatherhood. And if we recover fatherhood, we’ll recover the family. If we recover the family, we’ll recover our society.”
If you’re a father and you stay with your children and you love your wife, you’re a real hero and roll model. Keep it up—our nation is counting on you.

Why are Their Thought-Leaders Profoundly Un-American?
America is in chaos, the republic is threatened, and it is confused and showing weakness. We hadn’t been prepared for the war that is being thrust upon us, and as usual our weakness invites aggression. We’ve been seeing this aggression for the last four years, but we didn’t know that the chief source of that aggression is the Democrat Party who are confronting the Republicans for power over us and the political system designed by our Founding fathers. Don’t be surprised by the unfamiliar brute force foreign tactics and methods used by the Dems, they have a partner in these endeavors–Putin’s KGB. The coup d’etat against Trump is going into its fifth year. The Deep State, Communist Tom Perez, and Vladimir Putin have an agenda for America–Socialism in America, otherwise—American cities will burn. And… the burning and clashes with police are underway before your eyes…
The Failed American Intelligence
In one of his speeches in 2018, President Trump mentioned the name of Michael Hayden—he is the man responsible for President George W. Bush seeing the soul in Putin’s eyes. Putin’s soul? It doesn’t exist. What a shame for the American Intelligence! Michael Hayden, however, is not an exception—there was no profound knowledge within the FBI of Russian agenda, her Security Services and their methods, tactics, and dirty tricks. As a result we have been deeply infiltrated by Russian Security agencies for at least several decades. In writing about them, I use the term–KGB. This infiltration is responsible for drastic changes in all corners of our society: the government, culture, media, academia, science, courts, sport, and educational system, dividing us and transforming America’s moral face.
In this extremely dangerous time the House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says it’s time for statues of Confederate leaders at the U.S. Capitol to go. She has been in the House of Representatives for thirty years and never addressed the issue. Pelosi’s demand did not surprise me, she has been the leader of all fraudulent actions against President Trump for all four years. She continues acting in cahoots with the criminal leadership of the Dems and their military wing, Antifa. America is now experiencing one of those low moments in its history. It seems to be reflecting and reproducing the terrible events that occurred in the former Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics–USSR.
The Ideology of Socialism is Already Dead
Democrats have a short memory—they don’t remember the collapse of the USSR in 1991. History is the Mother of all sciences and with a horror I am watching a carbon copy of the Russian Socialist history in America, the events today are reflecting events in Socialist Russia in the past: Violent crowds with enthusiasm were vandalizing monuments and changing the names of the streets in Russia, rewriting history, censuring good books and movies. These exact Socialist tactics are going on in America executed by the Socialist Charlatans and their army Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and other anarchists, crafted by the KGB. History is permanent and nobody ever can change it. The generation that ignores history is doomed and has no future!
Another similarity with Russia: a leader of the Socialist Revolution in Russia, Vladimir Lenin proposed the dissolution of police. Do you remember Obama’s negative attitude towards the police? After listening to him, I wrote: “Stalin’s policy of divide and conquer has been implemented in many areas on our society including the race relations… to obtain control of the local law-enforcement to nationalize and federalize it, like Stalin did…Obama began this policy within his first five years–dozens of local agencies are being investigated. Be prepared for open season on policemen and remember…where politics intertwine with organized crime. The police already feel under the siege. Be prepared for a lot of killing of policemen and mob rule in America.” Socialist Lies: From Stalin to the Clintons, Obamas, and Sanders, p.135, Xlibris, 2016
What I predicted in 2016, came very fast to America. There was only one established and practiced Socialism in the world, the Soviet one. For your information Socialism in Russia proved its own insolvency, it was unable to produce and collapsed in 1991, in the country it was born, Russia. The KGB had usurped the power in the country from weak leadership and catapulted Vladimir Putin to presidency—this, the Socialist model was reincarnated and Stalin/Andropov’s design for America’s destruction had been revived. You are witnessing now the ‘Cultural Revolution’ in America, the way it was in Russia and China in the 20th century. Be ready for new difficulties our police will endure. Read here: State Authorized Killing of Civilians is a War-Crime, May 27, 2020.
The KGB in America
I have intentionally tied those two names, Andropov was a conduit between Stalin and Putin, and Putin is the devoted disciple of Andropov. Unfortunately the FBI and the vast majority of Americans don’t know that. Let me give you some words about the KGB Chairman Yuri Andropov 1967-1982 and the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the USSR in 1982. I will give you a conversation of Lt. General Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest-ranking KGB officer ever to defect to the U.S, with Yuri Andropov:
“In 1972 the Kremlin decided to turn the whole Islamic world against Israel and the U.S. As KGB Chairman, Yuri Andropov told me a billion adversaries could inflict far greater damage on America that could a few millions. We needed to instill a Nazi-style hatred for Jews throughout the Islamic world, and to turn this weapon of the emotions into a terrorist bloodbath against Israel and its main supporter the United States. No one within the American/Zionist sphere of influence should any longer feel safe.”(“RussianFootprints,” by Ion Mihai Pacepa, National Review Online, August 24, 2008.)
General Pacepa wrote in the same article: “According to Andropov… the Muslims had a taste for nationalism, jingoism, and victimology. Their illiterate, oppressed mobs could be whipped up to a fever pitch. Terrorism and violence against Israel and her master, American Zionism, would flow naturally from the Muslims’ religious fervor, Andropov sermonized.” Epilogue, pp.341-342, What is Happening to America? The Hidden Truth of Global Destruction, Xlibris, 2012.
Here is the answer to many questions about our current enemies and how to divide and conquer America. Following the Andropov design, Socialist Charlatans were set, bent, and fixed across the globe, especially in America by the KGB. It was Andropov who developed further Stalin’s design and for America had implemented a simultaneous infiltration of the media and Security Services to destroy the democratic principles of the American Constitutional Republic left to us by our Founding Fathers. Andropov’s agenda was easily succeeded with the help of two American Manchurian Presidents, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, both Democrats. Read here my column: Revelation, April 26, 2018.
I hope you remember the Black Liberation Army created by the KGB in the 1960s. The issue of black and white was fully exploited by the KGB in the 1960s. The Civil Rights Movement was infiltrated in the beginning with by the KGB to inculcate the Civil Rights members in the Russian social model of Socialism, making them Socialist Charlatans. Dozens of them in the name of civil rights have become the members of the Congress. Bob Woodson, a leader of Civil Rights Movement gave a real history of black America that deteriorated during the last fifty years under the domination of Democrat Party. “We have a 9/11 every six months in the black community killing each other.” Read about the work of the Woodson Center…
Bob Woodson in right: blacks are killing blacks by the thousands in Chicago, more killing there than in the war in Afghanistan. The party of slavery, which pushed segregation and incited violence now is collaborating with Putin to destroy the American Republic and President Trump. Dems have exploited the black community for decades and now the blacks grasp it. Fatherless black family is the central problem created by the Dems. The institution of marriage and family were destroyed by the Democrats welfare system, and as a result the black community suffers enormously today… Vladimir Putin is laughing hilariously in the Kremlin—the Democrats achieved such a distraction of America that the KGB could only dream…
Moreover, the Democrat Party ruined the states and cities where the governors and mayors are Dems. Minneapolis and Seattle are the recent examples, where violent hoodlums are fighting the police. Other Blue states will follow them. Considering the latest statements of Nancy Pelosi there is a coordinated chain of events by the Democrat Party, fighting for power before the election. They have no idea of how to govern responsibly, and can’t win in the election by votes—they are doing it by fraud and force, like Bolsheviks did in the Socialist Revolution in 1917 Russia through the Duma (Parliament). In America today Nancy Pelosi is doing the same—she is a Chief Socialist Charlatan-provocateur.
Ideas are not spread by air or wind—people disseminate them, and Socialist Charlatans distributed bad ideas to divide and conquer. The recent Covid-19 pandemic threatened us all, but we couldn’t find an expert to relay on—the medical community was divided as well. That division was created by China that collaborated with the W.H.O. Director Tedros Adhanom, a man recruited by the KGB in 1970-1980s. If you know the history of Ethiopia and Soviet invasion there, you will grasp the truth. The Soviet policy of infiltration into all international organization is even more intact under Putin. I hope a new Director of Intelligence John Ratcliffe knows that. Unfortunately, the FBI Director is an empty suit—he doesn’t know the KGB and doesn’t understand that Squad in the Congress, Antifa and Black Lives Matter are crafted and trained by the KGB… I am not sure that the DOJ knows that…
My fellow Americans!
Our National Security is at stake! The power is in your hands to expose and condemn the Democrat Party combatting the American Republic and President Trump. Your future is in your own hands, learn the Truth. Knowledge is POWER!
P.S. The Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch should read my columns and not become Supreme Justice Elena Kagan.

Everyone is all upset about Google pole-axing the Federalist and Zero Hedge, and rightly so. Twitter is full of warnings from conservatives that if this silencing of dissenting voices isn’t stopped, the freedom of speech will be a dead letter, free society will be a thing of the past, and America will swiftly become a totalitarian state.
I’m sympathetic, but must point out that I’ve been sounding this warning for years, while establishment conservatives, the ones who are feeling the heat now, paid no heed (and the Left celebrated). What has happened now to the Federalist and Zero Hedge is nothing new at all: Google banned me and other foes of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women several years ago. I was also banned by GoFundMe, PayPal (briefly), Patreon, MasterCard, Indiegogo, Amazon Smile, Amazon’s Associates program, and probably others I’ve forgotten. When all that happened, there was no reaction from mainstream conservatives who professed to oppose the progressive Leftist silencing of voices that oppose them.
Why was there no reaction? Because years ago, the establishment right accepted the “Islamophobia” narrative. Leftist organizations such as the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) told the world that to oppose jihad violence and Sharia oppression was ipso facto “Islamophobic” and hateful. Islamic advocacy groups such as the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) relentlessly insisted that all opposition to jihad was “bigotry,” while the establishment media passed on these claims uncritically, never informing the public about CAIR’s unsavory ties. Meanwhile, Dinesh D’Souza told conservatives that unnamed “conservative Muslims” were their natural allies and partners, ignoring the fact that Osama bin Laden, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and the like are “conservative Muslims.” George W. Bush told them that Islam was a religion of peace.
Others insisted to conservatives that the entire resistance to jihad was “racist” unless it was led by moderate Muslims who claimed that when properly understood, Islam was indeed a religion of peace as Bush said, and that it was wrong to discuss how Islamic jihadis used the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence and make recruits among peaceful Muslims. A few years ago I sat in a meeting with some of the heads of the leading counter-terror groups in the country, and we discussed a joint initiative. Then one of those leaders pointed out that we were all white men and that our efforts would have no legitimacy unless a moderate Muslim led them. I, on the other hand, thought the truth was true no matter who stated it, but that was distinctly a minority view; everyone else agreed not only that it was prudent to play the Left’s identity politics game in order to gain more mainstream attention and avoid charges of “racism” and “bigotry,” but that it was right to do so, and somehow improper for non-Muslims to want to defend themselves against jihad violence. Those moderate Muslims meanwhile convinced many conservatives that the moderates, that is, a handful of people with tiny organizations, represented a genuine force for reform within the Islamic world, and that this reform was the only hope.
But the primary driving force, as is so often the case, was fear. Establishment conservatives, including the Republican Party, Fox News, National Review, the whole panoply, were terrified of being labeled “racist,” “bigoted,” and “Islamophobic.” To prevent that, they were willing to mute, censor, and cover with euphemisms their response to jihad violence and Sharia oppression. In doing so, they gutted their own effectiveness, because they no longer spoke (if they ever did speak) about the true nature and magnitude of the threat. Instead, they focused narrowly on one aspect of the problem — terrorist attacks — while ignoring or denying the goal of jihad, other forms of jihad, the nature of Sharia, the oppression of whole populations under Sharia, and more.
Fear and cowardice being the hallmarks of American establishment conservatism, foes of jihad were thrown to the wolves. I’ve repeatedly tried to sue the Southern Poverty Law Center for defaming me as a white supremacist, a bigot, and all the rest of it, but I only ever found one lawyer who would take the case. Most others were afraid to go up against the SPLC money machine. The one who was willing wanted $500,000, which I do not have and cannot raise since GoFundMe and the rest are closed to me. Meanwhile, establishment conservative organizations don’t dare to feature me or other foes of jihad terror, as they know what will ensue: a firestorm of protest from the establishment media and the Left, and they’re just not willing to stand up against that. Last November I spoke up in New Hampshire for a local Republican Party group. The local media ginned up hysteria, the state Democratic Party chairman, Raymond Buckley, libeled me as a “white supremacist” and refused to retract, other Democrats called for my cancellation, and several venues did cave in to the pressure. The worst aspect of the whole thing, however, was that the local Republicans obediently fell into line. They fired the local party chairman who had invited me, and replaced him with state Rep. Steven Smith, an embarrassing invertebrate who apologized for my appearance even though he hadn’t attended, hadn’t viewed the video, and had no idea what I said. He just knew that the Democrats were angry, and so he jumped to appease them. And he is, of course, not alone. He should be elected chairman of the Republican National Committee, because the whole thing is as small, weak, and spineless as he is.
All that being said, I am neither complaining nor asking anyone for anything. The ship has sailed; there is no one to ask. I’m merely posting these observations as a record, for as long as it lasts, of how we got here, and a signpost to what is certain to happen next. Just as I have warned many times, the Left is now coming for the establishment conservatives who thought they would be spared if they threw me and others who were targeted by the Left under the bus. That was never true, and everyone knows that now. Nonetheless, probably never-Trump conservatives and others still think they won’t be targeted. They’re wrong. But by the time they find that out, it will be far, far too late.

This comes at the heels of National Guardsmen who found shards of glass baked into a pizza they ordered while deployed at the Washington, D.C. protests.
It is interesting to note other cases where shards of glass were weaponized against political opponents. During Ayatollah Khomeini’s Islamic revolution in Iran, a band of women drove around searching for women who deviated from the new norms. If they found a woman wearing lipstick, they would hand them a napkin to wipe it off. The napkin would be laced with shards of glass.
Taking things by force is at the heart of what extremists do. It’s a repeated pattern that crosses all extremist ideologies. While its current incarnation started with good intentions, there is unfortunately an extremist undercurrent steering its direction, which includes taking things by the illegitimate use of force and cancelling all other points of view.
This isn’t happening in a vacuum
In addition to reporting and training communities about how to prevent violent extremism in the next generation, Clarion Project also studies and reports on the trends that romanticize and glamorize extremism.
What we can say is that the current situation in America is not happening in a vacuum.
We all remember that Rolling Stonecover of the Boston Bomber in 2013 that portrayed terrorist Dzhokhar Tsarnaev much in the same way as previous magazine covers of rocks stars like Bob Dylan or Jim Morrison.
Then there was the 2018 TV series called Waco, which retold the story of cult leader David Koresh, the Branch Davidians and their stand off with law enforcement, which was a psychological power struggle asserted ultimately through physical force.
The show pretends to be nuanced, offering alternative points of view that give insight into the extremist cult. However, it leans heavily in favor of highlighting the Brand Davidians as rebels looking to find belonging outside an empire, while portraying law enforcement as brutes save one exception.
Ryan Mauro, director of Clarion’s Intelligence Network, weighs in:
“The series would leave anyone with the perception that the government is essentially tyrannical and evil, holding little regard for human life. If I belonged to a group urging preparation for an armed revolt against the government, I’d play Waco on loop in my compound.”
Koresh’s cult, jihadism, white supremacism and anti-government extremism are all predicated on the idea that the U.S. government is evil, is planning to extinguish all resistance, and an armed uprising is inevitable and necessary.
If you believe the U.S. government is evil, you’ll interpret everything law enforcement does in the most malicious way. All these ideologies require the dehumanization of law enforcement.”
Dehumanizing law enforcement has been a theme in our society since at least the 1960s. It is one that is pressed into our collective subconscious long before anyone takes to the streets or pours bleach in a drink.
Last year, Clarion pointed to a popular new show that inverted the most iconic role of superhero into psychopath. Amazon’s successful and entertaining new show The Boys had a message that couldn’t be ignored: Superheroes are the villains and vigilantes are the real heroes.
Right now, we’re seeing that plot line playing out on our streets. It features a mass movement that has turned all law enforcement into the villain and all opposition to it into the hero — without discrimination between protester, rioter and now attempted murderers.
In real life, first responders are human beings, some who take the high ground morally and some who don’t. Oftentimes, our men and women in blue are the closest thing we have to heroes in our communities. There are a unique set of individuals willing to put their lives on the line for us every day they come to work (and even when they are off duty or retired, as we saw in the case of Captain David Dorn, who was shot and left to die defending his friend’s store from rioters).
Of course there is a very real need to deal with corruption in our police forces. No doubt we need change, but how that change happens matters very much. Yet, it is a form of mass societal self-sabotage to dismantle the only barrier that stands a peaceful civilians and those who choose to be a threat.
What we can start with is a common premise: extremist ideology from any direction will not point us forward, and that includes New York’s new bail law that lets even the most violent criminals back out on the street within hours without posting bail.

Unscripted Joe Biden, as we have all come to realize, is must-watch TV. When the presumptive Democrat Presidential candidate speaks off-the-cuff, his message regularly goes off the rails. We all anticipate Biden will say something odd, confusing, or even incomprehensible during interviews and live appearances, but we are often still shocked by what comes out of his mouth.
On Monday, June 1, he upped the ante by not just saying something strange, but something potentially dangerous.
While addressing a crowd at the Bethel AME Church in Wilmington, Del., Biden suggested that law enforcement training could include “teaching a cop when there’s an unarmed person, coming at him with a knife or something, to shoot him in the leg instead of the heart.”
First, it’s certainly odd to characterize someone as an “unarmed person” if they are “coming at (you) with a knife.”
We have long known that Biden simply does not like guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens, as he appears to not trust them to be responsible or remain law-abiding. But who knew that mistrust also applied to law enforcement? It’s certainly an odd position for someone who has been protected by armed government agents for decades.
And what about that suggestion to abandon over a century of firearms training to, when faced with a deadly threat, “coming at him…to shoot him in the leg…”?
Targeting center mass, is done to best ensure all rounds fired hit their intended target for the safety of all innocent parties involved and to stop the threat.
Sadly, candidate Biden seems to get much of his firearms education from Hollywood, where big-screen heroes regularly shoot with unachievable accuracy. If Clint Eastwood’s Man with No Name character could fire his single action revolver from the hip, while on a horse, with pinpoint precision, surely those with more modern firearms and training could easily match this feat.
Much like Biden’s ideas about biometric firearms, though, life is not going to imitate art when it comes to the defensive use of firearms.
Even if it could, it still would not be advisable. The reality is that any time a gun is fired at another person, a lethal outcome is possible. A leg wound from being shot can be just as fatal as a wound to the body. A gun should therefore never be used in any circumstance other than one that would justify lethal force.
This rule reserves the use of a firearm for the most serious of encounters. Biden’s “leg shot” rule ironically could lead to more uses of firearms under the flawed assumption that the injured subject would eventually recover.
“Shooting at a person is deadly force regardless of what part of their body you aim at,” said Jason Johnson, the president of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund, as reported in the Washington Free Beacon.
He went on to explain, “[Police are] trained to shoot center mass but there is no option to shoot somewhere else and have it not considered deadly force.”
Firearms training has been refined for decades, and when it comes to using lethal force to stop a violent threat, targeting the body is proven to be the best way to ensure striking the intended target, ending a lethal threat, and minimizing the chance of misses that endanger innocent third parties.
But this dangerous suggestion from Biden is nothing new, when it comes to the use of firearms. We could call it Chapter Two in his book of what not to do with a gun if you are concerned for your safety.
Chapter One involved the use of shotguns, and included two bits of advice that would likely land anyone who follows them in jail. First, in February 2013, Biden told women who wish to defend their home and loved ones from intruders to walk outside with a double barreled shotgun, and fire two blasts. He followed that up later in the same month by telling anyone who wants “to keep someone away from (their) house, just fire the shotgun through the door.”
These suggestions are as preposterous, and dangerous, as telling anyone to “shoot [an attacker] in the leg.” Perhaps the best advice when it comes to defensive use of firearms would be to NEVER listen to Joe Biden.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Monday that Black Lives Matter (BLM) has established a new style of politics that is based not on votes nor legality — but on force.
“Black Lives Matter doesn’t make legal arguments. They are not trying to convince you of anything. Black Lives Matter believes in force. They flood the streets with angry, young people who break things and they hurt anyone who gets in the way. When they want something, they take it,” he said on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
“Our leaders are happy to talk about everything but the collapse of the centuries old civilization tumbling down around them. They have no idea how how little credibility they have. They have no sense of how irrelevant they have become. If you can’t tell the truth when the truth actually matters, then nothing you say matters. Meanwhile, Black Lives Matter becomes more powerful and more popular with the public.”
Carlson said the group is gaining power and popularity because the group is winning and achieving “exactly what they want.”
He noted that BLM continues to demand that police forces be either abolished or defunded and that many American cities are obeying.
“That’s not bluffing, it’s not posturing, it’s not tweeting; that is real power,” Carlson said. “Make them mad and they will set your business on fire. Annoy them and they will occupy your downtown and declare a brand-new country,” adding that people will be afraid and will “not do anything about it.”
Carlson said the message BLM is promoting is that “force is more effective than voting. Elections change nothing. Rioting, by contrast, makes you rich and powerful.” He noted that people are rioting across America without fear of prosecution because charges are either being dropped or not laid.
“It works. Violence works. That’s the message … Until violence stops working, violence will continue.”
