Waiting for an atrocity
With the attack on the Cities Church, the Minnesota Nice lefties have crossed a clear line.

With the attack on the Cities Church, the Minnesota Nice lefties have crossed a clear line. They’re no longer tribunes of the people, defenders of the oppressed, or speakers of truth to power. No…. now they’re living a dream. They’re giving full expression to their fantasy lives as Bolsheviki storming the Winter Palace, Red Guards liquidating the bourgeoisie, and Khmer Rouge cutting down everybody they come across, with all that implies -- terror, violence, destruction, and bloodshed.
So we hear the cries of “why won’t Trump do something…” Why doesn’t he make his move? Why doesn’t he send in the 101st the way Ike did? Why doesn’t he federalize the state National Guard? Why doesn’t he declare martial law, clean out the streets, and send the cosplay Bolshis back to their dorms?
The answer to that it simple: he needs an atrocity.
Now, from our point of view, this has already happened, and in spades. Since the Renee Good shooting (in which as we know, though too many others don’t, an ICE agent was run down and sent to the hospital) we have seen plenty. We have seen ICE officers attacked with shovels, iceballs, bottles, and explosives. We’ve seen hotels besieged and shut down. We’ve seen ordinary citizens stopped, interrogated, and threatened in the streets for driving a doubleplusungood SUV (more Red Guard cosplay here.) We’ve seen government vehicles wrecked and looted, including the theft of an FBI rifle – by a Tren de Agua member, no less. We’ve seen the lefties assault and severely beat one of their own. (He was rescued by ICE agents. Of course he was.) And we’ve seen a church disrupted in the middle of services, its congregation and pastor abused and threatened, with Don Lemon, that stalwart successor to Edward Murrow, present to lend legitimacy. What more do we need?
Well, here’s the thing. We’ve seen all that. But the man in the street, your average American, hasn’t.
