I am afraid to travel to Minnesota,
California, New York, or Illinois. I think red states should announce “travel advisories” to these bluer-than-blue bastions of
fraud, crime, and corruption. I do not feel safe in sanctuary states or cities.
Conservatives and traditional Americans are not welcome there. The only time we
feel “seen” in these places is when someone is about to mug us or steal our
“MAGA” hats. They do not even provide “safe spaces” for us.
As a straight, white, Christian male,
I am a target. All of us are. We are not just mocked and marginalized. Even
when we are in our own sanctuaries, such as a church in Minneapolis, crazed
mobs storm in, interrupt the services, terrorize our children, and “interrogate” our priests and
pastors.
When we protest what we feel is an
obviously stolen national election, with profound worldwide consequences, they
throw us in jail, sometimes in solitary confinement, sometimes without charge, often for
years. Yet we all know nothing much will happen to the folks who trespassed
against us, shut down our religious ceremony, trampled on our First Amendment
rights, and terrorized so many innocent folks. Or to those seditious and
sanctimonious would-be insurrectionists obstructing justice and traffic in the
streets of Minneapolis, urged on by the likes of Tampon Timmy Walz, Jacobin
Jacob Frey, and Blockhead Bruce Springsteen.
As conservatives, we are
disproportionately affected by hatred directed at us by Marxists, anarchists,
atheists, Antifa, BLM, teachers, nurses, the media, Hollywood, and prominent
Democrats, among others. Some of their vitriol is technically “mostly
peaceful,” but some is anything but. Muslim organizations pass out “Shariah” flyers in public schools, even in red states. We are kicked
out of restaurants or banned from campuses. Countless Democrats, “celebrities,”
and assorted other morons, asshats, and non-viable tissue masses call us
fascists, Nazis, deplorables, rubes, neanderthals, etc., etc. And many make
threats on our very lives. But, in fairness, perhaps these remarkably tolerant,
inclusive, and welcoming folks were right to do so if, say, we “misgendered”
someone. Because, unlike burning down a retail outlet or police precinct—or threatening to kill us—that is actual violence.
Right?
The only chance for this “great experiment” to continue is if we—all of
us—refuse to let it expire. The SAVE Act must be passed. Call, write, email, or
text your Senators and representatives every 30 minutes if necessary. Never
give in to a lie. Never back down in an argument. Counterprotest. Despite
having a day job and a family, I haven’t taken a single night off from writing
and posting on my blogsite for going on 12 years. I have been contributing to
American Thinker for over half of that time. I do this in the vain hope that
somehow, sometime I may cause someone to think something through or even change
their mind. (Although I am aware that I am mostly preaching to the choir on AT,
which is fine by me!) My (relatively) strong suits are writing and speaking.
Whether you have those strengths or different ones, please use them to fight
for truth, justice, and the American Way. Because the American Way as
originally constituted was a universal force for good in the modern world.
And it is in existential peril. We
have months at most to save this republic. That is not hyperbole. Many
AT readers understand this. Most others don’t. We have reached another
“Gettysburg” moment. Liberty is in the balance.
Simply put, if/when Democrats retake
power-- which will likely be in about 9 months unless we somehow convince
craven Republicans to follow through on their promises-- they will never
relinquish it again. The court will be packed, the Electoral College
eliminated, D.C. and Puerto Rico given statehood. The border would be opened
up, voting rules relaxed, political opponents jerrymandered, jailed, or otherwise
prevented from taking office. That would be curtains for democracy, and the
republic. The rest of the world, whether it believes it or not, would also be permanently
damaged. The West would soon collapse. The “Chinafication” of the world would
proceed apace…until that, too, would eventually lead to moral, societal,
ecological, and economic disaster.
And the Great Experiment, the greatest
in human history, would come to a catastrophic end. An end made even more tragic
by how unnecessary and avoidable it would have been.
Republicans, do you really want this
to happen on your watch? Really? Think of your children and grandchildren…and
the sacrifice of all those who came before. I don’t give a bleep if you are
“bought and paid for.” Return the effing money, eschew the perks…and reclaim
your dignity, for God’s sake.
And let us reclaim our country.
