Charges of racism only work to silence people who aren’t racist

This is one of those profound statements that leaves one gobsmacked by it’s essential truth. It was originated by pundit and video raconteur Bill Whittle 5 years ago in a video segment on the Marxist shield of political correctness.   People who are truly racist do not care about that kind of accusation. An organisation such as the KKK that was “In effect, the Klan was a military force serving the interests of the Democratic Party”, Wouldn’t care about that kind of accusation, and in fact they are disturbingly proud that is their brand, their identity.
However, those who are the opposite of a racist, who the judge people by the content of their character rather than the colour of their skin, are horrified by such a charge and are usually silenced as a result. That is the desired effect in using such tactics, and it only has that result when used against those who are not guilty of the charge. So in light of today’s holiday, we should consider this profundity when discussing the tactic of word weaponization and the issue of racism.
“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Martin Luther King
As it typical of the Socialist-Left, they have an inferior national agenda that cannot compete in the marketplace of ideas. Therefore they need to have various techniques to ensure that Conservative concepts and ideas are not heard. These range from dominating the culture, media and government indoctrination system to tactics for shutting down opposing voices. Thus they label the free-speech of the voices as the ever undefined “hate-speech” or the arbitrarily deciding certain words are verboten for various reasons.
As already discussed, the biggest weapon their rhetorical arsenal is of course the hurling of the racism or racist charge. It doesn’t matter to them whether or not these charges racism are true or not, and in fact they are more effective if they aren’t.

To the surprise of no one, criminals across the country are exploiting the chaos to steal guns

In an epic failure of liberty control, the current chaos is giving thieves a perfect opportunity to try and steal some guns. Criminals across the country have been trying to take advantage of the chaos to burglarise gun stores, attempting to break into the shops and steal what they can. This while law enforcement has been busy with the protests and looting that broke out everywhere. Some have noted a decided increase in this type of crime, with the thieves only meeting partial success. Word has it that the ATF has complimented some stores for their security measures that prevented loss of inventory to the miscreants. If anything, this should show that  liberty control  is a fool’s errand since criminals will always find a way to obtain guns. The end result of these policies is that the innocent and even law enforcement are then at the mercy of the worst of society.

Gun Confiscation SWATing: Shooting down due process

A new video from the Firearms Policy Coalition highlights the dangers to Liberty and due process posed by so-called ‘Red Flag’ Laws. Gun confiscation SWATing, Extreme risk protective orders or so-call ‘Red Flag’ Laws are all the rage of the Liberty grabber Left and RINO’s these days. It’s bad enough that these unnecessary and unconstitutional violations of everyone’s due process rights are being ‘Rahmed’ through on a state level. But both the US House and Senate have their own versions. The latter co-sponsored by Senator Marco ‘RINO’ Rubio (R-FL) with the Senate Judiciary Committee to hold hearings on March 26 . In a case of trying to solve a rare but emotionally charged problem, these will only serve to create an even bigger problem destroying several civil and human rights in the process. We’ve already established that this type of legislation is unnecessary since Involuntary Civil Commitment laws that protect due process rights are already on the books. Thus we hav
