If we look in the rearview mirror
we can still see Independence Day of 2020.
Independence Day, otherwise known as Fourth of July, celebrates a new
country’s birth after its departure from the rule of England .
Adam Schiff's mentor, King George III |
This exodus was due to many factors
including religious and speech freedoms denied by England ’s King George III. Through the Revolutionary War, America rose
from a far away land to the greatest nation on Earth.
Ten men, now called the Founding
Fathers, gathered to write a set of rules for this new nation that began with
Ten Amendments; those are now called the Bill of Rights, and pave the way for
the entire Constitution of The United States of America.
Each year we celebrate this
separation from England
on July 4th, Independence Day.
Those Founding Fathers were men
with true vision. According to several
sources, the average age was about 40-years, with some in their 20’s. Alas, those sources were a bit thin on who
was what age.
In any event, these ten men put
their heads together and eventually created a document so thorough that is has
outlasted the charter of any nation in the world by roughly 224 years.
You read that right. According to The Heritage Foundation, “the average
constitution lasts less than 20 years.”
That’s a mighty impressive achievement.
Fast forward to 2020, when much has changed in
the world.
In May
2020, a fellow named George Floyd was killed by a dirty cop in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The facts are still nebulous, but Floyd was
wrestled during an encounter with police.
After a struggle ensued he was taken to the ground and was subjected to
a “choke hold” by a cop.
Floyd died.
The cop was fired and arrested.
Protests began. Looting occurred. Fires were set. Missiles were thrown at police. The Minneapolis
mayor lied about the mayhem. And the
media were happy to be complicit.
False narratives about the
protests-turned-riots peppered the print and electronic media, with mayors from
Minneapolis, New York
City, Portland, Atlanta,
and Seattle,
all providing jaded accounts of the destruction occurring in their
jurisdictions.
Using phrases such as “experiment in life,” and
“Summer of Love,” were merely remains on a stable floor from equines eating
their oats, of which both media and elected officials felt compelled to brag
about – all dispensed by Democrat mayors and governors.
And those Leftist mayors and governors
desperately tried to antagonize President Trump at the cost of law-abiding
citizenry, to no avail.
Then, geniuses in Seattle
who were not content with protesting and rioting decided to take over a
six-block area of Seattle, Washington.
The Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan thought it would
be sporting to poke President Donald Trump in the eye. She publicly mocked him and his suggestion to
send in federal troops to restore a sense of normalcy and public safety. She told him to hide in his White House
bunker.
It wasn’t long before this group of childish
malcontents decided to pick a name for their newly established area (which they
stole from – much like they insist the white man stole America from
the Indians.)
Their thoughtful name was CHAZ, Capitol Hill
Autonomous Zone. An agog media splashed
that acronym proudly across newspaper headlines and on TV news screen
crawls. Still, they had no official
leader.
A few short weeks later, CHAZ was changed to
CHOP, Capitol Hill Occupied Protest, likely because “autonomous” was too
difficult to spell.
These anarchistic nitwits realized they needed
food to sustain their existence, so they raked up a small patch in a public
park and planted some seeds. Evidently
they thought this was what Michael Bloomberg was referring to when he mocked
farmers and farming.
Mayor Durkan’s Summer of Love
fest soon turned deadly with several shootings and at least two murders and one
rape, and with love rapidly draining from CHOP, only inane demands leaked from
its proverbial sinking ship.
All this made me think about
Independence Day and how we arrived at the greatest nation on Earth.
The miscreants in Seattle never came up
with a Constitution, although they were about the same age as our Founding
Fathers. They failed to select a
leader. They had difficulty even naming
their stolen property.
In fact, the only things they did
well were demonstrate their poor gardening skills and their collective low
intelligence.
God Bless America !
