Hitler liquidated his chaotic Brownshirt thugs when he realized they were more of a political liability than an asset. But this time, so far, Democrats have no such fears.

By contrast, those who read the Bible know that even saints are capable of great evil, but the truth must be told. It took me, as someone who grew up with media, too long to learn that.

Though I now suspect the Reparations crowd really want to enslave or kill White Men, not merely take their money, as the Final Solution to "reparations." I would've dismissed this thought not long ago, but not anymore.

Come to think of it, both public schools and police are unionized, the agenda of the old Left. Now there's some room for reform.

Learn some Statistics to resist being overly impressed by "scientists" and pollsters.

By contrast, Christians who respect the 9th Commandment will (or ought to) aim for clarity and truth in their language, since God is Truth.

Good intentions...

Leftists care more about "Thought Crimes" than mere felonies. After all, you have no property rights; even the RCC agrees, in principle.

However law enforcement is organized, the vital element required is a keen sense of justice. And that, I found, is very lacking in America these days, even among Christians since they are not taught to take Biblical Law and justice seriously in church affairs despite 1 Cor. 6.

Unions have never been far from organized crime, either in association or practice, often terrorizing people they don't like such as "scabs," in the name of the Almighty Dollar.

My conclusion is inspired by James Petigru, Atty. Gen'l of S. Carolina, who famously said after its secession, "S. Carolina is too small for a republic and too large for an insane asylum."

Lee was part of our history, like him or not. He should be remembered realistically, just as people remember Erwin Rommel, a nice and able general who also supported a racist regime. Nice people can be dangerous.

I'd keep the Lee statues but add a sign saying, "This nice man, owing to a misguided sense of loyalty, rebelled against his duly-elected Commander-in-Chief," like Democrats since 2016. But hey, it's their State, not mine.

My brother-in-law, a now-retired auditor for a state Controller's office, saw petty corruption in police dept's all the time. But there wasn't much he could do about it; he was even threatened for calling them on it. Who will guard the Guardians?

Example: Catholics say abortion is wrong because it violates Aquinas's Natural Law; "Sola Scriptura" Protestants say it violates God's Law. Big difference.
