I’m not advocating violence. I’m warning that denying a freedom-loving people any peaceful means of resolving their differences is unwise. I have no idea how many Americans would take up arms to defend their God-given rights, but it would surely be foolish to force that decision. The radicals need to calm their hatreds and realize the idiocy of cornering an animal that has the means to destroy them and no other path to freedom.
"Imagine you’re awakened in the middle of the night by a disturbance in your living room. You grab your trusty Louisville Slugger and go downstairs to investigate, only to find that a grizzly bear has shattered the front door and is foraging around for a midnight snack. Your next decision could mean life for death. Do you avoid getting between the bear and the exit, hoping that it leaves? Or do you corner it so you can have a final showdown — your baseball bat versus its 700 pounds of muscle, claws, and teeth?
"No sane person would advocate placing a dangerous animal in a position where its only option is to fight. But nobody ever accused leftists of being sane. Hence, they’re trying to corner us and leave us with no peaceful means to resolve our differences.
"As stated in our Declaration of Independence, our rights are “inalienable.” They aren’t granted by men, but are gifts from God. As such, our Constitution is not the source of those rights. It is a pact to honor God’s gifts, and our elected leaders swear an oath to comply with it.
"But of course, dishonorable men break their word all the time. Our current self-proclaimed defender of our “democracy” seems to have little regard for his oath, our Constitution, or the republic he supposedly leads. He has continued the work begun by Barack Obama — undermining our civil liberties with zeal.
"The radicals can’t cancel that which originates from God, but they can work to deny us the means to exercise our rights — which is a manifestation of tyranny. As they do so, they seem unconcerned that we are the bear, which they are backing into a corner, leaving us with few options to maintain our life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. Such cornering is a dangerous game." . . .
We have a right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment, unless you’re a member of the MAGA movement and happened to be in the Capitol on January 6 for a selfie. Then you’re subject to years in solitary confinement, or even execution for stepping through a broken door while unarmed.
