“Now some say it is unfair to hold disadvantaged children to rigorous standards. I say it is discrimination to require anything less — the soft bigotry of low expectations.”
George W. Bush, penned by speech-writer, Michael Gerson
A group of peaceful protestors took over a small section of uninhabited public land in the Pacific Northwest. They were conscientious objectors to federal policies they claimed were unconstitutional and discriminatory. No one was hurt and no weapons were preemptively drawn. Law enforcement asked their leaders to a parley to bring about a peaceful resolution, and they quickly agreed. While on the way to that meeting, they were subsequently ambushed and bullets riddled their vehicle. With his arms wide in the air, one of the leaders was ruthlessly gunned down as a helicopter looked from above.
Another group of protestors, this one violent, took over six city blocks of mostly private property also in the Pacific Northwest. They objected to local policies they claimed were discriminatory. Weapons were drawn and violence was prominently promised. Law enforcement asked their leader to a parley to bring about a peaceful resolution, but they quickly refused. The group stole private property, vandalized public property, and committed a litany of criminal offenses. So far, that group has been coddled, pampered, and catered to by local and federal authorities.
The first group, the protestors at the Malheur Wildlife Refuge, were protesting the Bureau of Land Management and its treatment of ranchers. They were led by law-abiding activists, Ammon Bundy and LaVoy Finicum; the former was found innocent by two juries and the latter was murdered by law enforcement. Although the men and their cohort had guns, they kept them holstered (at least, so far as LaVoy is concerned, until fired upon). The “Bundy group” threatened no one. They let law enforcement come and go respectfully and always made time to talk in an attempt to work out their differences peacefully. And most importantly, they chose to make their stand in a decrepit and publicly-owned forest office where no innocent people would be hurt.
“Likewise, our government is systemically prejudiced against those perceived to be hard-working, self-reliant, moral people.”
Because WE, the people are the ones who recognize the tyranny and have the resources to stand up to it. If only we could unite into a cohesive unit.
The coddled agent provocateurs are just useful tools that are instruments of chaos, being instructed to tear us apart.
I had already discussed the differences between these two occupations and the way that they were handled. This is a blatant example of the two-tiered justice system which has collapsed and is under the control of social justice Communists. We all know where this is heading.
