I\u2019ve been promised there won\u2019t be any more snow until at least Sunday.\u00a0 Of course, I still have about ten hours of snow removal on the lower driveway so that kind of stinks.\u00a0 But thank heavens for small mercies.\u00a0 So, I\u2019m more or less free until Monday and I look around at the world and see goofusses in every direction.\u00a0 Now goofus is a technical term and I may be applying it to critters that technically are other things; dumbasses, mopes, mooks and just plain knuckleheads.\u00a0 But as a generic term it\u2019s a good stand in.<\/p>\n
I saw a video of a woman at one of the anti-ICE riots who picked up a flash-bang explosive to throw back at the police and had it blow off some of her fingers.\u00a0 This is not normal.\u00a0 Women don\u2019t typically become rioters.\u00a0 This is a special brand of stupidity.\u00a0 It\u2019s like some kind of modernist version of the \u201cChildren\u2019s Crusade.\u201d\u00a0 Let\u2019s nickname it the \u201cGrown Children\u2019s Crusade.\u201d \u00a0The guy who got himself shot last week was an ICU nurse.\u00a0 I\u2019m going to guess he wasn\u2019t an antifa regular.\u00a0 Someone must have told him that attacking ICE agents while carrying a hand gun was a risk-free exercise.\u00a0 I\u2019m guessing that was an antifa regular.<\/p>\n
So, what you have is the Minnesota true-believers who cheered for the George Floyd riots to change the world have followed a new crusade to make Minnesota safe for illegal aliens.\u00a0 In their atheist-adjacent LGBTQ-friendly churches they gather to egg each other on and then they head over to the local NGO where the city and state contacts provide whatever support the local antifa chapter needs to harass ICE without any accountability.\u00a0 And that\u2019s the difference between antifa and the useful idiots they are surrounded with now.\u00a0 They have no idea what they are doing.\u00a0 They remember Frey and Walz forcing the city and state police to stand down while antifa and BLM ran amok.\u00a0 So, they think that\u2019s how this works.\u00a0 Idiots like Good and Pretti think they\u2019re immune from harm because Walz and Frey tell them they\u2019re doing the Lord\u2019s work.<\/p>\n
I read today that Walz has called in the state troopers to break up the protestors.\u00a0 Is this a capitulation or just a tactic?\u00a0 There is a story going around that the state and city leaders were involved in the planning of the interference with the ICE operations.\u00a0 Perhaps Walz is worried about his culpability under federal law.\u00a0 So many stories, so little knowledge.<\/p>\n
The only question is will Trump stick to his guns or not.\u00a0 If he caves to Minnesota then the same thing will happen in all the blue states.\u00a0 And after that all the good that Trump is trying to do will be undermined.\u00a0 And that\u2019s the whole struggle writ small.\u00a0 Stand up to the antifa mobs and if necessary, put them down when they threaten to riot and defy law and order.\u00a0 I don\u2019t have a clue as to what he will do.\u00a0 So that\u2019s enough for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
