Domestic Enemies

[RonD1120 62]

The Mass Shootings thread is overextended. Therefore, I am choosing my thread because the tragedy in Parkland FL is an example of the domestic enemies within our overall system.

Those enemies seek to destroy our way of life for money and power. They seek to kill the goose that is laying their golden egg. That is exactly why liberalism is a mental disorder.

This case is about school districts lying to their families in an effort to get more money and more political influence. It’s about local police forces being willing to ignore crime and refusing to abide by the laws that they promised they would uphold. It’s about government failures at every level and how that corruption and failure led to the death of 17 innocent people.

This article explains why N. Cruz had 39 encounters with law enforcement and was still able to legally purchase an AR-15.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

In this week’s NY Times, David Brody (host of “Faith Nation” on CBN) has an editorial that puts this in a positive (as in defining what he’s for, rather than against). He’s honest about the culture war, declaring it as such. He just doesn’t talk about the others as his enemies, generalizing them to anonymity.

Something to consider. By defining what he’s for, and making it clear that he’s fighting against issues and actions, not people, he makes it easier to consider his points.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

It’s a good thing you don’t have any bitterness or anger against the majority of voters who chose the other side.

By the way, if those enemies do destroy your way of life and get rich doing it wouldn’t you see that as a good thing? It means they’re winners, after all!

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

That makes as much sense as calling faith a mental disorder.

Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

For some reason my browser wouldn't accept your link. But I assume it directs to: In Donald Trump, Evangelicals Have Found Their President

I agree that this editorial helps define Ron's view on domestic cultural enemies and his acceptance of trump. In the context of things certainly Jimmy Carter vr Donald trump certainly puts the shift of values for the US Christian right. Into clear focus and that focus is politics over values. Furthermore its a take no prisoners, war, against whats undefined as the left.

Mr. Brody is in hostile territory by writing for the NY Times. He uses the subtle examples of how a donation to flood victims. How a statement of love and commonality, combined with a tight hug. Was perceived as a bond of Christian brotherhood by trump and the Christian evangelical leadership.

For trump this was an opportunist base of support, base of cheerleaders. In business trump has burnt all of his bridges with other large developers. Other US banks and mainstream lenders. All because his bankruptcies and shady deals left other partners carrying the bag into bankruptcy. While trump wandered off with all of his infamous "management fees" into the sunset.

Over the last 20-30 years evangelical Christians and a core of isolationist Judaeo-Christian Americans. Have defined a new cultural war. A war against everything that would place any regulatory burden. Or most important, threaten the concept that Jesus Christ and white Christians. Should always control the US government, control US policy.

George Soros, the UN, liberals and "democracy". Is nothing less than an attack on this hierarchy on White Christian supremacy and control of the US state. Thats why they must be first demonized, then attacked and destroyed. trump has bought into his position of leader of the cultural war whole-heartily.
How Trump’s Policies Are Fueling the Culture Wars
http://time.com/4893080/donald-trump-diversity-culture-wars/ Always the opportunist, trump has recognized this base of support, of votes. He will ride it until its bled white, pardon the pun. Then move on to another ideology of convenience. Because he certainly has no central core of beliefs himself.

The recent CPAC is a perfect illustration on how trump, evangelical Christians and the radical right has seized the RNC.

Anger, paranoia, and gun worship dominated the gathering of conservatives near DC.

Until Ron starts actively working against Americans with foreign viewpoints, as opposed to separating himself, advocating, pontificating, and discussing, he's not an enemy. He's someone who disagrees.

Which of course Ron more or less did when he tried to get TK fired. He is not someone who just disagrees.
