The Covid Fascism Is Just The Beginning: Public Health Is The Tool With Which The Left Will Destroy Our Freedoms
Oh you crazy conspiracy theorists! The idea that the government will use public health as an excuse to destroy our rights is just ridiculous. Take off the tin-foil hats and return to the real world!
Sure, they eviscerated our religious rights, our free-association rights, our right to be safe in our homes and person, our right to travel without government interference...it was for a good reason, and it was for the children! And grandma!
But that was a one-off thing and they would never try to expand that power to control us in other ways! Really!
New Mexico governor issues order suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque
The firearms suspension, classified as an emergency public health order, applies to open and concealed carry in most public places, from city sidewalks to urban recreational parks. The restriction is tied to a threshold for violent crime rates currently only met by the metropolitan Albuquerque. Police and licensed security guards are exempt from the temporary ban.
Fascism, thy name is Democrat.
Power is all they want, and they will use everything to consolidate it, expand it, and use it on us. Gun owners are the tip of the spear that they fear so much, and the more they can blunt that spear, the better to manipulate us, make us dependent, force us to bend the knee to government and their jack-booted thugs.
Lujan Grisham said state police would be responsible for enforcing what amount to civil violations. Albuquerque police Chief Harold Medina said he won't enforce it, and Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen said he's uneasy about it because it raises too many questions about constitutional rights.
Well, that's nice, but it doesn't mean a damned thing. The state has its own thugs who will gleefully do the bidding of LandesFuhrer Lujan Grisham.
Only if the Albuquerque police and the county sheriff's deputies stop the state police from enforcing this vile and obvious insult to our natural, God-given rights will their statements mean anything. Otherwise they are part of the problem.
Yes, if they act there will be a legal confrontation...something that is sorely missing in America today. Donald Trump should have told Fulton County Georgia DA Fani Willis to pound sand, and that if she wants him she can come and arrest him. Governor Abbot should have told U.S. District Court Judge David A. Ezra that he can enforce his edict himself, but that Texas will continue to defend its border.
Playing by the rules has gotten us to where we are today, with a compliant "opposition" party willing to get along so they can continue to pad their bank accounts while America slide farther into the abyss of totalitarianism. The left is superb at manipulating the law to their own ends, and it is far past the time when rational Americans begin to push back against the insanity of a two-tiered justice system.
Civil Disobedience? Absolutely. If mask mandates come back, then simply ignore them. Let some budding fascist assistant store manager call the cops 30 times a day on normal American citizens and eventually the cops will get sick and tired of it. Overwhelm the system! Your employer demands a Covid booster? Sue them for HIPAA violations or 1st amendment violations. It worked in NYC!
Go to every school board meeting and read the kiddy-pron that infests our school libraries. Make the school board members squirm and cringe and demand that you stop!
There are things we can do short of armed rebellion. But our mindset must change if we are to fight the left. They have a 100 year head start, and we have a lot of work to do!
