Cynical Publius-

It’s time for my periodic reminder that all Democrats are fascists.

I love the fact that whenever I point this out, some Democrat invariably claims “Derrrrr… you don’t even know what fascism is!” So let’s explore fascism a little, shall we?

Listed below are attributes and practices that all 20th Century fascists have in common with the Democrat Party of 2024:

1. Laws promoting the seizure of guns from law-abiding citizens and/or the denial of gun ownership rights for law-abiding citizens.
2. Censorship of free speech by pretending such censorship protects the citizenry from faulty information.
3. Government control of industry.
4. Government control of the mass media.
5. Control of the entertainment industry as a means of propaganda. (See: Leni Riefenstahl; Walt Disney Corporation.)
6. Children belong to the State and not their parents.
7. Political dissidents and opposing political leadership are to be persecuted for fabricated “crimes” under the color of law through the courts.
8. Political dissidents are locked up for months/years without a trial.
9. Leading political opponents who are a threat to the fascist order are to be assassinated.
10. Extreme nationalism (Democrats hate the United States of America, but are extreme nationalistic zealots for the Woke States of America).
11. Purposeful division of the population along racial and ethnic lines as a means to power.
12. Leadership of the ruling fascist party is chosen by party leaders without any input from rank-and-file party members, but an illusion of democracy is perpetuated.
13. Certain party criminals are turned into martyrs upon their demise. (See: Horst Wessel; Saint George Floyd.)
14. Destruction of statues, symbols and art of the pre-fascist order.
15. Accuse dissidents of the very crimes you yourself commit.
16. Justify all of it for the “common good.”

The Democrat Party of 2024 is a fascist party. Spread the word.

Wauwatosa attempted armed robbery, shooting; man in serious condition

WAUWATOSA, Wis. – A 39-year-old man is in serious condition after being shot during an attempted armed robbery in Wauwatosa early Friday morning, July 26. The victim was pumping gas when the suspects attempted to steal his vehicle.

According to police, around 3 a.m. a Wauwatosa officer heard gunshots in the area of Mayfair and Capitol and saw a white sedan driving rapidly away from the area.

That officer initiated a vehicle pursuit that ended in a minor crash with a street sign at N. 110 Street and W. Congress Street. Multiple people ran from the vehicle.

At the same time, Wauwatosa’s 911 center received a call from an individual who reported that he had just been shot at a gas station near Mayfair and Capitol. He further reported that five suspects confronted him while he was pumping gas, and attempted to steal his vehicle. At least one of those suspects was armed.

The victim told police he was also carrying a firearm, and there was an exchange of gunfire. The suspects got into a vehicle, and fled the scene.

The 39-year-old shooting victim was treated for gunshot wounds and taken to the hospital by the Wauwatosa Fire Department. He is in serious condition. It is unknown if any of the suspects were struck by gunfire, police say.

Wauwatosa police officers, with the assistance of officers from the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office, City of Brookfield Police Department, and West Allis Police Department, searched the area for the suspects who ran from the vehicle, which had been reported stolen to the Milwaukee Police Department on July 24.

One individual believed to have fled from the vehicle was taken into custody. He has been identified as an 18-year-old Milwaukee man.

The Wauwatosa Police Department says they are working to verify that the vehicle that officers pursued is related to the robbery and shooting incident. They are also seeking witnesses and evidence from both crime scenes.

Survey Shows Growing Number of Americans Own Guns For Self-Defense

A new survey from the Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention at the University of Michigan has discovered what most of us already knew to be the case: the number one reason why tens of millions of Americans exercise their Second Amendment rights is personal safety.

The survey quizzed about 2,500 gun owners about their motivation to keep and bear arms, and the vast majority of respondents said self-defense was the most important factor in their decision.

Nearly 80% said they were motivated to get a firearm for personal protection, a proportion that appears to have risen over the past 25 years. No single study has tracked the reasons for gun ownership over time, making comparisons inexact, but similar studies have found that about 26% of Americans reported owning a gun for protection in 1999. Various studies suggest that between 60% and 70% of gun owners said protection was their main motivation for having a firearm from 2017 through 2021.

It’s a trend that has roots in the social upheaval of the 1960s, said Dr. David Yamane, a professor of sociology at Wake Forest University who studies gun culture in the United States and who was not involved in the survey.

“It was a time of profound social unrest and social uncertainty, lots of political movements, cultural change, foreign threats, people listening to crazy music, you know, ‘sex, drugs and rock n’ roll,’ political assassination, riots or protest movements in some cities,” said Yamane, who owns a gun and who financially supports organizations that promote gun ownership.

Harris: ‘We must have the courage to object when they use that term, radical Islamic terrorism’

Fine by me. How about “mainstream, Qur’anically-sanctioned Islamic terrorism”?

Of course, what she means is that there is no Islamic terrorism, and anyone can see how true that is.

The Decline and Fall of the Western Church

I read a heartbreaking column in the Deseret News on Friday. It was by a pastor named Ryan Burge. It was titled, “My church is closing, and I don’t know what comes next — for me, or America.” In the column, Burge tells how his congregation, First Baptist Church of Mount Vernon, Illinois, recently shuttered its doors for good. At one point, Burge questions whether he was ever fit to lead a church. That speaks highly of him since no pastor should ever look himself in the mirror and say, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” He also struggles with the fact that while his profile as a Christian academic grew, his congregation continued to age out and shrink.

While my online platform was rising and I was being offered a variety of opportunities to speak and write, things were continuing to decline at my little church. I would come from home from speaking at a conference that had a couple hundred in attendance to preach before a nearly empty sanctuary on Sunday morning.

Not all denominations are struggling, but many churches in America and the West are declining. But Burge is taking too much on himself. The deck was stacked against him. While the world may increasingly hold Christianity in contempt, we have often been complicit in our own destruction.

In “The Screwtape Letters,” Screwtape, a senior devil in Hell, writes to his nephew Wormwood. Wormwood is a junior tempter trying to win the soul of his “patient.”

The real trouble about the set your patient is living in is that it is merely Christian. They all have individual interests, of course, but the bond remains mere Christianity. What we want, if men become Christians at all, is to keep them in the state of mind I call “Christianity And.”

You know—Christianity and the Crisis, Christianity and the New Psychology, Christianity and the New Order, Christianity and Faith Healing, Christianity and Psychical Research, Christianity and Vegetarianism, Christianity and Spelling Reform. If they must be Christians let them at least be Christians with a difference. Substitute for the faith itself some Fashion with a Christian colouring. Work on their horror of the Same Old Thing.

 The horror of the Same Old Thing is one of the most valuable passions we have produced in the human heart—an endless source of heresies in religion, folly in counsel, infidelity in marriage, and inconstancy in friendship.

The issue of “Christianity And” is not merely a stumbling block for the mainline Protestant denominations. It is true that those churches subscribe to ideas such as Christianity and LGBTQ+ or Christianity and Abortion. As a result, those denominations splinter, and their congregations shrink. I have heard them say that they are “small but mighty.” If they are mighty, it is because they have yoked themselves to the popular causes of the day.

Don’t listen to what the mainstream media is saying about Kamala Harris…
She is DEI trash.

“So, Biden has to drop out because his record is so good?”

It’s all right there. Joe had to drop out because his not dropping out would have damaged democracy. He dropped out to protect democracy.

That’s literally what he SAID. – Henry Bowman
