Militia members occupy US building in Oregon after protest
I am struck by an interesting parallel: Is this really any different
than the "Occupy" movement? Oh, the objectives are not the same, but are
not the tactics exactly the same? In will be interesting to watch the
language used to describe these different protests ... which will reveal
the bias of the reporters, the pundits and the media outlets.
Upon reflection, I think both "protests" are a statement on the lawlessness of our elites, who make up the laws as they go along when the process doesn't satisfy them. It is sad to see our president assuming legislative functions because Congress will not conform to his desires. It is sad to watch Congress fail to exercise its prerogatives because people don't understand what they are and the role Congress is supposed to play in policy formation. It is unfortunate that we see the justice system being challenged and mob rule offered in its place. I find it regrettable that "political correctness" has gained so much sway that we feel threatened just for our thoughts.
Some things for you all to think about ... as Americans, is this really the country we want? Really?
