Dress rehearsal for revolution
By Douglas Herz
To those who believe that the riots following the tragic death of George Floyd were unscripted, do I have a bridge for you! The mayhem perpetrated by radical left-wing groups such as BLM and Antifa (per AG Barr) were well-planned, and well-supplied. The domestic terrorists learned several important points from their nights of mayhem:
1. They have the backing of Democrat politicians
2. They have the support of the Democrat cadres: guilty white liberals
3. Bored college kids will turn out in force for the demonstrations/riots to lend energy
4. Their message, that America is a racist nation that must be fundamentally changed, and that police forces across the nation should be defunded, was resonant and effective
5. By-and-large conservatives went into hiding (except Tom Cotton and President Trump)
To a revolutionary this is the perfect situation: strong support for the cause with weak opposition. Consequently, the next riots will not be as limited in scope or as constrained in levels of violence. Leftists sense their moment is now while America is weakened by the coronavirus. There is blood in the water.
