Quote:What doesn't help is people getting into a frenzy without considering all the facts. People need to stop, use their brains and suppress emotional responses that involve rioting and violence.

 

You could use this on any forum on this very board.  We're living in a microwave culture where people want everything instantly or they jump to conclusions before all of the facts are known. 

 

Quote:I recall a 2008 speech by the president (and I use that term loosely) where he believed that this country needed a national police force, more powerful than the current military and answering to none other than the president.

 

I find it very ironic that so many groups are being pitted against one another. It is happening along multiple lines such as race, religion, political affiliation, and others which are too many to mention. We as a country are coming into an election cycle which more closely resembles a civil war than an electorate process.

 

Furthermore, could there be two worse candidates for office come November? Is this by design? Will this be the election where people say that it just isn't worth putting either into office, opening the door for the current president to stay in power with a policing force accountable to only him?

 

There was a lot of talk about a "fundamental transformation"  of this country. Is this the beginning of that transformation? Sure, most would laugh off the notion as a conspiracy theory, but don't so many of the current events support such a theory?

 

The next months coming up will be very telling of where this country is headed.

 

What the current occupant of the Oval Office referenced in your first sentence was again brought up yesterday by him in Warsaw.  They use clever phraseology, but the bottom line is that he wants more federal oversight into policing at a local level.  The meaning?  They want the local law enforcement federalized.  This is what globalists want.  Centralized control over everything.  And in a world where Police Chief of America, Barack Obama is dictating how we police our streets, you can rest assured there will be more concerns about gender neutral bathrooms in police stations, lowered standards among police forces for candidates, and paralysis by political correctness.

 

I think we live in a world where we get the leadership we deserve as a nation.  There has been a push over the past few decades to basically dumb down the education process in the public school system nationwide.  We've lowered standards, removed or minimized curriculum that delves into civics or American History, and rewritten history to be more palatable for the politically correct crowd, white washing or even erasing segments of our history deemed unacceptable by the liberal elite.  The progressives have metastasized in all levels of education from grade school right up to the hallowed halls of colleges and universities.  Academia in general is overrun by liberals who are all, unwittingly or not, part of the process of dumbing down our society.

 

Then you've got them wanting to go after guns.  You need to disarm the populace if you intend to make a bold move and you know that could spark something more than just peaceful protests. 

 

As this process has become more pervasive, the lemming mentality has grown to the point where we are presented with two of the worst possible candidates going head-to-head.  One is a corrupt dirt bag, and the other is a narcissistic reality TV show host.  We've hit rock bottom.

 

Meanwhile, Rome is burning, and I really do think this is all being done by design.  By the end of the summer and early fall, we could see this country slipping into a situation where martial law could become a reality, especially when you've already got the king of America talking about federalizing local law enforcement.  If that were to happen, he might deem it necessary to postpone the elections indefinitely because he's the only one who could possibly navigate this nation through this turmoil.  It's not a stretch to think that's even remotely possible.  His disregard for the Constitution knows no bounds.  He could just decree himself president for life and move on.
