Lawlessness
8th October 2020
What good is a second amendment or any law if the government will not abide by them? A government that will only interpret law against its opponents and forgive them against their friends. This is not the America I thought I live in. I have to thank COVID for that. As cynical as I ever was about my government and its legal system this, the pandemic is proving that I was a babe-in-the-woods optimist at heart. Did any of you foresee or even think possible the never-ending lockdown and the politics afterward?
What use is a Second Amendment to defend yourself and your home only to have your government keep coming after you until you fall? Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the St. Louis couple that defended their home over the summer from a large group of marching demonstrators, should be protected but that does not seem to be so. Maybe they will stay out of jail but this thing is going to cost them dearly.
On the other hand, if you loot and riot in a city for 120-plus days and finally got yourself arrested, if you are on the Left it’s just a resume builder. Especially if you are a Democrat politician. Louisville’s Democrat mayor has been bending over backward to help these “protestors” and is handing out settlements like they are candy.
