What exactly will the leftist “Police Free Zones” look like if implemented. If we listen to the MSM (Mainstream Media), and I don’t recommend listening to the MSM unless you are fond of being lied to and used, momentum for “Defund Police” is spreading like crazy. Ok, so what will they have instead? A return to shootouts in the streets perhaps? Oh wait, we already have that, just look at Chicago for example.

The picture above is from what is happening today in Seattle after cops abandon a precinct completely in a move to supposedly deescalate. Uh huh, this is what your elected Leftist Officials are bringing about in states and cities that have far left, democrat control and many, have had one party (D) rule for decades. What will happen, when will the police return, who will protect the citizens in the absence of the Police? These questions will not be answered, sadly, until the adults step in and reinstall some degree of sanity again.

While the “Old West” model of taking your grievances to the streets and settling them like men might be somewhat appealing, this will likely not happen. What will likely happen is extortion, crime increases, and anarchy. The Left and Democrats have been waging war on cops for far too long and ordering cops to abandon precincts, stand down during riots, and leave protestors alone has resulted in too many deaths, including the police. Again, in primarily democrat controlled cities and states where Governors and Mayors have helplessly flailed while their cities are looted and burned on their watch. After all, it is one thing to assume a posture of strength and talk tough and actually having to take definitive action when everything is crashing around you. All too often, the response is to cave, cower, and cringe leaving people to fend for themselves.

Now really give this some consideration and thought. Consider what leftist democrat rule means in places like California and New York where the crushing tax rates and never ending rules and regulations which stifle and drain business. The cost of housing is unattainable for far too many, or criminals are a protected class over Americans especially if they are undocumented persons (Illegal Aliens). The image below illustrates one of the many, many homeless camps in Oakland, CA. Such camps are a blight all over dem controlled areas.

This could easily be the model of what could prove to be nationwide expansion of far left, progressive democrat policy if they continue to be elected. The policies and failures of the Left would simply spread, unchecked from coast to coast plunging America into never before imaged decay and destruction. Those who prefer being treated like children but rather ceding control of their lives to government bureaucrats will make the decisions for all of us. They will decide how much soda we are allowed to consume, salt or no, butter on popcorn or no and these are just some of the never ending dictates which will be imposed on us. America will become some dystopian looking, third world country version, and nightmarish shadow of its former self as this plays out right before our eyes.

Freedoms, once surrendered will likely never be returned and could be lost forever. Free speech and all of the other rights guaranteed by the Constitution and Bill Of Rights will cease to exist. America will edge towards total chaos and anarchy as freedom dies in the last place on earth where much like a beacon of light on a hill, it still shines although somewhat dimmed now, but shine it does. As Benjamin Franklin once said, Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.” You may surrender your freedoms and liberties but I will bitterly and forcefully cling to mine until death.

What is “Political Correctness”, where did it originate, and what is it for? The origins of PC (Political Correctness) go back to Marxism. The article explains the nefarious origins of PC and how totalitarian PC actually is. That alone speaks volumes but first, let us consider what PC is for. PC can be thought of as negative stereotyping or discriminating verbally, ok that certainly sounds nice and inoffensive but does it help those underlying feelings? After all, isn’t it the base emotions which brought about the concept of the stereotyping and discrimination to begin with? How does just changing or softening what you name or call something help achieve anything substantively? Obviously, it does not change anything but only serves to soften the harshness or coarseness of a word.

The following PragerU video is great. In the PragerU video, we see how controlling the words serves to control the culture. Or, opposing dissenting views such as disagreeing with the Left or democrats becomes intellectual insensitivity. This type of gobbledygook is actually quite dangerous as it serves to change how we think, by force. PC is either accepted as presented on its face or the dissenter is branded as intolerant, demonized, and vilified by the Left, the MSM, Democrats, and other such enlightened and superior beings.

Aside from the totalitarianism on full display today on College and University Campuses nationwide, we are continuing to see the true agenda of Leftists on display in cities and states across the country which are in the throes of rioting, looting, and demonstrations resulting from the absolutely unconscionable death of a man at the hands of a bad Police Officer. Sadly, the cop was white and the victim was black which creates the toxic soup in which the insanity has sprung from. This situation presented the radical Left with an opportunity to publicly air any and all grievances while attempting the true agenda of destroying America as is in hopes of bringing about revolutionary change. Most notably is the call to “Defund Police” nationwide despite the fact that the inherent racism is simply not to be found in the numbers and statistics which have been gathered nationwide. Oh well, overlook the facts and listen to the rhetoric instead or basically, symbolism over substance as usual.

No longer satisfied with grievances such as changing words for non existent offenses such as the case with the Left changing Christmas to Winter Holiday and destroying a cherished and beloved time for children who can no longer enjoy even a Candy Cane in school, or hear Christmas Carols, or even see “A Charlie Brown Christmas” because of those intolerant references to religion. Instead, they can joy in decorating for Winter Holiday instead while bowing to the alter of Political Correctness in every other way the Left seeks to impose their lunatic agendas on us by indoctrinating our children. This happens as PC becomes “Thought Control” or how we interpret and think about things. The resulting change in thought is brought about by force, not because we chose to change how we think about a thing but how we are allowed to talk about it.

This Reddit article, presents some interesting and thought provoking thoughts on weaponized PC. Consider the misguided and abjectly wrong idea that simply changing the way something sounds is constructive or effective in some way. Saying, “I am offended” is the catch phrase which forewarns of corrective actions to come with regard to the imposition of politeness of speech. In truth, PC is a weapon which is readily utilized by the Left to bludgeon the opposition into submission for fear of retaliation from the Left. Free Speech, despite being a Constitutionally guaranteed right is routinely overlooked, trampled, and crushed by the Left via the use of PC. Most notably today is the agenda of Black Lives Matter (BLM) and other cornucopia of leftist groups and causes. In the last few years, the concept of “White Privelege” has been utilized to argue the need for anyone of “Non Color” persuasion to bow at the alter or PC and pay homage for all of the wrongs and atrocities perpetrated against all those of color since the beginning of time.

This extremely dangerous precedent of silencing any and all opposition with PC is wide spread and routine. The MSM, leftist Politicians, Education System, and all manner of leftist groups and organizations such as BLM, Antifa, etc. will utilize PC given any opportunity to do so. Why, because it is so powerful and the success has been staggering. Do not buy into the PC movement of offense and victimhood. These flawed and dangerous mischaracterizations of truth, fact, and evidence are nothing short of being just plain lies. We must resist the all out effort to mandate compliance with no opposition at all costs. Stand up for what you believe and do not be swayed by force of any kind. America, as we know it is at stake.
