Don’t look now, but we’re living in one.

The Moral Blackmailing of the American People
In Springfield, Illinois, in 1838, a young Abraham Lincoln delivered a powerful speech decrying the “ravages of mob law” throughout the land. Lincoln warned, in eerily prescient fashion, that the spread of a then-ascendant “mobocratic spirit” threatened to sever the “attachment of the People” to their fellow countrymen and their nation. Lincoln’s opposition to anarchy of any kind was absolute and clarion: “There is no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law.”

Unfortunately, it seems that every few years, Americans must be reminded anew of Lincoln’s wisdom. This week’s lethal Immigration and Customs Enforcement standoff in the Twin Cities is but the latest instance of a yearslong baleful trend.

On Wednesday, 37-year-old “queer activist” Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Good, who had barricaded her vehicle in an attempt to obstruct an active law enforcement operation, ignored agents’ requests to exit the vehicle and instead directed her car at one of the agents. Good actually then hit the agent, who was briefly hospitalized for his injuries. But before she could do even more damage, the agent shot and killed Good. The federal government has called Good’s encounter “an act of domestic terrorism” and said the agent shot in self-defense.

Suffice it to say Minnesota’s Democratic establishment does not see it this way.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey responded to the deployment of 2,000 immigration agents in the area and the deadly encounter by telling ICE to “get the f*** out of Minneapolis,” while Gov. Tim Walz called the shooting “totally predictable” and “totally avoidable.” Frey, who was also mayor during the George Floyd-inspired mayhem of 2020, has lent succor to the anti-ICE provocateurs, seemingly encouraging them to make Good a Floyd-like martyr and riot accordingly. As for Walz, he’s right that this tragedy was eminently “avoidable” — but not for the reasons he thinks. If the Biden-Harris administration hadn’t let in untold millions of unvetted illegal aliens, and if Walz’s administration hadn’t conveniently overlooked hundreds of Minnesotans — of mixed immigration status — defrauding taxpayers to the tune of billions of dollars, ICE never would have embarked on this particular operation.

Liberals and open-border activists play with fire when they so casually compare ICE, as Walz previously has, to a “modern-day Gestapo.” The fact is, ICE is not the Gestapo, President Donald Trump is not Hitler, and Charlie Kirk was not a goose-stepping brownshirt. To pretend otherwise is to deprive words of meaning and to live in the theater of the absurd.

But as dangerous as this rhetoric is for officers and agents, it is the moral blackmail and “mobocratic spirit” of it all that is even more harmful to the rule of law.

Most of us assumed this dispute had been settled once and for all by the early spring of 1865, but apparently we were mistaken.

What I most want to know at this juncture is why in the ever-lovin’ blue-eyed world is Tampon “Timmeh” Waltz, after doing everything his little pea-brain can come up with in the way of fomenting insurrection against the US federal G in his sorry-ass State, has not been locked up under multiple charges of treason already.

The underlying problem  all along has been that self-dramatizing Leftist morons have been getting away with personal threats, acts of violence against individuals, arson, looting, and wanton vandalism without ever facing Consequence One for any of it. They snarl ferociously about the supposed “evils” of private property, capitalism, and White People generally but have never been called out for any of their patent hatemongering. They must be forcibly made to understand that the Left’s permanent Get Away With It© card has been revoked, so their usual schtick is just liable to get them ventilated from here on out, as should have been the case all along.

Sorry, shitlibs, no more blanket Leftard Exemption for you. The days of having everything your own way are done. Things are different now, and I promise you ain’t gonna like it. In the immortal words of the great Curtis LeMay:

It’s a damnable shame that it’s come to this, but as I’ve told y’all about a blue million times: WE didn’t ask for it, WE didn’t want it, WE didn’t start it. THEY did.

Update! Number One with a bullet on the (S)Hit List.

Smarmy, smug, obnoxious, unlikable, as always. Also just dumb as a box of hair, too.

Updated update! Brother Billy has hisself an idear, and I gotta say I really, REALLY like it.

So I was thinking
A lot of mentions and RUMINT is that there are NOT enough cops out there to do what needs to be done, and that the White House is, per the usual, dithering on #TIA1807 (ie, the Insurrection Act of 1807—M) because smol-hats and ‘reasons’. OrangeManBad doesn’t WANT to be remembered for invoking the act (even tho right now, he really needs to, if only in Minnesota) and deploying Active Duty Troops.

Cowardly as all get out IMO
HOWEVER -I- thought of something. Remember the talk about granting Letters of Marque a few back BEFORE we snatched Maduro? I got idea… an utterly brutal and completely ruthless idea.

Why not just deputize ANY and ALL Veterans who want to volunteer, under a limited Contract, similar to what was done in Iraq. The DotMil didn’t have enough troops to run convoy escorts for quite a spell, so Blackwater stepped in, and did it quite well. Make it that Prior Contracting experience is a plus, and give us very liberal and open-ended Rules of Engagement.

Shoot First, For God Will Know His Own.

As well as enough Federal Legal Coverage that every. single. shoot. will be considered a “good shoot” and the trigger puller in question doesn’t get prosecuted after the fact at the State Level, due to the Federal Primacy Clause.

Also keep a metric shit-ton of irrevocable blank Presidential Pardons on hand…

Just in Case of later DemoncRat Fuckery years later.

I almost guarantee after the first 200-300 stupid fuckers get shot in the head that this shit’ll end so quick it make Soro’s head spin. And oh yes… Give a list of PRIMARY TARGETS that NEED to be “harvested” for the greater good. I’m pretty sure putting a bounty of $1 Million USD on Alex Soro’s head would attract enough attention to remove him and his Dad from the board. Even if he flees to the EU… lots of people there getting mighty poor and hungry these days from what I heard… for the E.U., make it $100 million, so they have enough to possibly even tempt the Soros Bodyguards on turning on him…

Now wouldn’t THAT be a kick in the head.
