The Hypocrisy of America

By now people have heard about the events of January 6th. Some members of Antifa and zealous patriots entered the US Capitol after it became obvious that Mike Pence was not going to do anything other than rubber stamp fraud. Most of the patriots who entered (important to note there is evidence a police officer opened the door and let them in) were milling around, chatting with the officers and taking selfies with them.
Another group of people destroyed property and ransacked offices.
Obviously this behavior is not what we expect. I will not go as far as people who say this should never happen in this nation because there might very well come a time when people decide it is time to do things differently. Let us not lose sight of the fact that this nation was founded on an act of treason. I am not supporting that, calling for that or advocating that, I merely point out the Declaration of Independence spells out our duties if government becomes tyrannical. If you try peaceful separation and they say no, well what are you left with? The same thing our Founders ended up doing. Our veterans took an oath to protect, support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. That oath expires when they do. Notice we are not protecting any person, we are protecting an old piece of parchment paper (and the words it contains) that established our government.
However, I find the drama and hypocrisy from the members of Congress (including Queen Lindsey Graham) to be conflicting. You see, these people are the very ones who tell other nations to have uprisings and for their people to fight for democracy. The very government officials who encourage Hong Kong to fight or overthrow its government are condemning the people who have had enough and did nothing more than what our government has supported in other nations, for decades. Keep in mind this all started because of a fraudulent election where indisputable evidence shows votes were stolen in sufficient quantities to change the election from a Trump landslide win to a Biden win. Despite the members of Congress and its propaganda media wing repeating that there is no evidence and the election is free and fair, these are not true and you are being told it repeatedly to get you to believe it. More hypocrisy when you take note that our nation routinely injects itself into the elections of other nations demanding they do it free and fair or that they conduct democratic elections. Hell, the UN even monitors some nations and there is no doubt we support that. Of course, as new evidence comes to light we are now finding out that the methods used to steal this election have been used by our CIA to interfere in the elections of other nations and get the outcome we want.
It is particularly galling to hear members of Congress who espoused the violence of BLM/Antifa over the summer, say this was uncalled for and unacceptable. The members of the squad, the Speaker and others have supported what the protesters did and encouraged them to keep it up. This is not in dispute. While the rioters were burning cities to the ground and looting everything in sight the social justice warriors in Congress were egging them on and telling them to keep it up.
All of the sudden the people coming in were coming into their workplace and were causing trouble for them. That is not OK. If the people they encouraged to burn down your businesses actually did so, it was OK but to enter the Capitol and make members of Congress wet their pants was inappropriate.
Queen Graham wants to know why there were armed National Guardsmen in full riot gear for BLM but not for this. His implication, of course is that it was racial (he always panders). The truth is assessments probably showed that wherever BLM/Antifa showed up they destroyed stuff, burned stuff, stole stuff, hurt people and killed people. Any assessment of the people who support President Trump would show that in countless rallies with tens of thousands of people there were only minor skirmishes usually involving a democrat agitator there to cause trouble. One could argue they got it wrong but the truth is there were paid agitators in this crowd and it is true that some over zealous people did bad things. How many were the patriots we do not know. We do know that reports indicate many were invited in. That is an important point. If you were invited in you broke no law (unless you then vandalized the place).
What other hypocrisy has our nation and its elected swamp creatures shown? The riots over the summer were because the police shot black people (except Floyd who died of a drug overdose while cops knelt on him). Some of them were unarmed (some were not) but in nearly every instance they were breaking a law and did something that resulted in them getting shot. Not all of the shootings looked OK to me but there is no doubt that many were justified. In the Capitol an unarmed white woman was shot and killed by the police. Are we supposed to riot? I can understand that people might say that she broke the law and deserved to be shot (unless she did something aggressive she should not have been fired upon) but saying that did not stop the BLM/Antifa riots or support from the Social Justice Democrats. Some members of Congress have stated that the police should have opened fire on all the people entering. What? They tell police to stand down when people are rioting.
There are no riots for this lady. I do not know if she was invited in, walked in or climbed through a window but I do know she probably should not have been shot. I could excuse the shooting though if they can show that the chaos involved and the officer’s perception that she had a weapon caused him to shoot but it would take a lot of convincing. Another bit of hypocrisy, why were the Capitol Police not told to stand down and let the people do what they wanted? It was only property and we have insurance (in this case tax dollars). Anyone remember this when the left was occupying parts of Seattle and attacking a federal courthouse or burning and looting?
What happened should not have but it is important to remember that the people involved were a very small fraction of those who were there. They no longer give estimates and the permit was for 30,000 but there were hundreds of thousands of people there. The crowd went a very long way. But assume it was only 50,000. The few hundred or so who were involved in the Capitol ruckus are a tiny percentage of the total. Remember when the BLM/Antifa rioters were doing their thing we were told most of the people were peaceful but some bad players always take advantage of the situation. When conservatives are involved if one does something bad they are all bad.
The only good to come from this is that the people who made fun of Trump when they took him to the WH shelter can’t do so any longer. They were all hiding under desks, crying and wetting their pants. Also, the members of Congress now know what fear is. They now know they are not in a palace that can’t be breached and they are not safe from the people should they continue their tyranny.
These very people are talking about another impeachment or the 25th Amendment. What will they do if that ticks off the people who were just there and others who could not make it and they all showed up to register their disagreement. Congress now knows that there are not enough police officers and Guardsmen to protect them and they should not screw around. And keep in mind, none of the people there were armed. If they get ticked off and show up that will not be the case.
Our government is hypocritical.
And it is good when government fears the people.
