Just the Wall, or It All?

Audacious Epigone welcomes the new year.
What the partial shutdown is making clear is just how superfluous so much of the federal government is. Most people have no idea what exactly is shut down or how it effects them–because it doesn’t effect them. The impending government shutdown is the new Y2K bug.
Apparently Senator Kamala ‘MostlyWhite’ Harris thinks that ‘lynching’ ought to be a ‘federal hate crime’.
Really? Lynching is murder. Murder is a capital crime, in those states that still kill people for killing other people. What, exactly, does making it a ‘federal hate crime’ bring to the party? A lot of virtue-signaling, that’s what.
If we don’t need the federal government, perhaps we don’t need ‘federal hate crime’ laws, either.
Something to think about.
