I would suggest that “YES,” “A Rise in Vigilantism on Our Horizon.”
How long are law abiding people going to put up with this widespread lawlessness we see every day?
How long is it going to be before people start taking “the law” into their own hands?
How long before it starts looking like the Wild West again?
How long before our cities are run by gangs, and Mob bosses again?
I would contend not very much longer.
It’s not that the government can’t protect its citizens.
It’s that the government is choosing not to protect its citizens.
By defunding the police, and basically neutering the police, criminals know they have gained the advantage.
By allowing repeat, and repeat, and repeat, and repeat offenders out without bail, when they do manage to get caught, our government chooses the rights of the criminal over the rights of citizens, and the rights of victims.
By choosing to not prosecute, and hold many of these criminals responsible for their actions, the government is promoting lawlessness, while throwing law abiding citizens under the bus.
The only people who are protected are the politicians, government officials, and those who can afford to hire their own private security.
How in the hell did we get to this point?
How long is it going to be before we see groups like The Guardian Angels start operating again, just for starters?
But rest assured, the government will be quick to dole out “justice” to any group interested in real public safety or justice.
We do have a right to defend ourselves…, right?
You would think this would go without saying, but that’s not the case.
While Florida had to make it clear that people have a right to “stand their ground,” in places like New York City we see their laws state that people have a “duty to retreat,” and only defend themselves when there is no other option.
Say what?
I say…, say what?
We pay quite a bit in taxes for government protection and Safety services. Boy, are we getting ripped-off! We’re not only not being protected, but we are paying for not being protected, while also funding their “injustice” campaign.
Not only is government not effectively protecting its citizens, the same citizens then have to worry about being prosecuted by that same government when we defend ourselves.
We are truly living in a “Bizarro” world.
We have already seen occurrences of various groups taking the law into their own hands. And who can blame them?
According to Snopes.com (a well-regarded fact-checking website), and David Mikkelson, “Emerson (Steve Emerson, a terrorism expert) began his set of remarks by claiming a number of Muslim no-go zones existed in areas of the U.S., England, France, and other western countries.”
“According to Emerson, ‘Sharia law’ essentially overrode the laws of the countries in which these said zones were located, and local police avoided interceding in the affected areas.”
That’s a nice way of saying the police were ushered out of these areas whenever they got too close to venturing in.
“Well, these ‘no go zones’ exist not only in France, but they exist throughout Europe. They’re sort of amorphous, they’re not contiguous necessarily, but they’re sort of safe havens and they’re places where the governments like France, Britain, Sweden, and Germany don’t exercise any sovereignty. So you basically have zones where Shariah courts were set up, where Muslim density is very intense, where the police don’t go in, and where it’s basically a separate country almost, a country within a country.”
We saw this especially in the U.S. with the democrat supported Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) zone in Seattle, where local government sanctioned police were not permitted. In most cases, however, these self-governing zones are not so official, or set apart by physical lines of demarcation. These areas are particularly evident in areas of Michigan and Minnesota.
“Emerson continued by insinuating authorities in areas such as France and the UK denied the existence of ‘no-go’ zones in their countries and claimed the entire city of Birmingham, England, was one such example of a no-go zone in which “non-Muslim” residents were not permitted.”
This reminds me of gang related neighborhoods of the past, with the Italian controlled neighborhoods, the Hispanic controlled neighborhoods, the Black controlled neighborhoods, the Irish controlled neighborhoods, the Asian controlled neighborhoods, etc.
People want to live and work in an environment that at least offers some degree of safety and justice, regardless of who is able to supply it.
Let me say that again.
People want to live and work in an environment that at least offers some degree of safety and justice, regardless of who is able to supply it.
Just be aware that the lawless chaos we are starting to experience is just what our government wants, until it gets bad enough that they have to ride in on their white horse and save us all by allowing them to operate without question and without any oversight.
One day their message, the democrats’ message, will flip overnight from “defund the police” to “submit unconditionally to the police, as long as we control the new “Gestapo” police.”
Hopefully we are able to reign-in the new Nazi-Democrat party before it gets to that point.
Hopefully.
