USA – -(Ammoland.com)- Our side hates lies. Our side hates churlish behavior. Our side hates traitors. And our side especially hates people who commit treason*.
That’s why our side hates to see protesters burn, mutilate or step on our flag. To the Supreme Court, its ‘FREE’ speech. But to our side it’s treasonous behavior.
When our leaders lie to us, in the past our side has taken those lies as just more politics. Those political lies are not FREE speech statements. They are CONTROLLING statements.
Our Founders assumed that politicians would lie, but they also assumed that free people would see through the lying rhetoric.
So now, after 50+ years of the Democratic Party dominance and Republican Party compromise, our country has a very dumbed-down voting public thanks to a delightful Department of Education, a very complicit media who delights in creating faux news and political parties that are very willing to lie to the very point of skirting a treasonous line.
Their current goal/agenda is to damage President-elect (PE) Trump, so that when he takes office, [they hope] he will be ineffectual.
No one knows if PE Trump can prevail over their incredible wave of hate and misinformation. But at this point, the opposition would prefer anyone else, and they are still trying to get that ‘other’ elected. They can’t bear the thought that the Electoral College properly chose Mr. Trump.
So our side questions, if destroying a presidency, by destroying a President-elect’s credibility, and denying the legal choice of the Electoral College, is not treason, then what is?
Does treason have to require physical violence? Or must our side accept that the Democratic Party is just throwing an immature temper tantrum, and look away?
If it is not treason, then what is the lesson being taught? Has the lesson become, never compromise with principles, even when wrong?
And if it is treason, then our side should see the lot of them prosecuted and in jail for what they are doing, i.e. the faux protests that are really riots. the politicians and journalists, all who terrified the ignorant and those who paid for and instigated violence, deserve their moment before a court.
Meanwhile, we must give PE Trump some room. Our side should ignore the media totally, as nothing they say is trustworthy.
Our side must also learn to fight just as dirty as their side, as we have no idea when the next Trump will appear on the scene. Our civility is wonderful, but it does not win battles or wars.
With President-elect Trump, our side stands once again on the parapets created by our nation’s Founders, but the abyss of the progressives still looms before us.
