WHO IS YOUR DICTATOR?
Have you noticed how easy we were all made to wear a mask? Why were we so willing? We are told that if we do not, we will get the Wuhan Virus and die, or we are told that we are not helping our fellow man. So, we are wearing the mask out of fear or to help others or just plain guilt.
Have you seen or heard the public service advertisements with the quiet running water exclaiming that we are all in this together or something like that? I feel like I have been shanghaied.
People have been wearing masks in Asia for decades due to the polluted air. Decades ago, I saw Korean and Japanese wearing masks, and we have all seen pictures of people in China wearing masks especially in cold weather months. Most certainly everyone in Wuhan, China, was wearing masks, but they not only got the virus but spread it around the world.
In the beginning we did not know, so to be safe we agreed to flatten the curve. We are being conditioned to believe that people who stand up for their freedoms are selfish, extreme, irresponsible, hateful, irrational, lawless and of course ignorant. Is it for our health, or has it simply become political?
Democrats are always telling us that President Trump is a dictator. We remember February 25th Speaker Pelosi telling us it was safe to go to Chinatown. On March 5th Mayor DeBlasio said it was safe to ride the subway. Trump banned travel from China on January 31 and a day later Biden exclaimed, “Yesterday, Donald Trump further diminished the United States in the eyes of the world. Trump’s atrocious asylum and refugee policies — they are all designed to make it harder for black and brown people to immigrate to the United States. It’s that simple. They are racist. They are xenophobic. And there is no evidence that they do anything to make us safer.” On March 20, Dr. Fauci was on MSNBC and was asked about the China travel ban and stated, “One of the things we did right, was very early, cut off travel from China to the United States”.
May 20, Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced that the city of Chicago would enforce shelter-in-place orders put in place by Governor J. B. Pritzker. This was to enforce the order against churches wishing to practice their First Amendment right. On the same day Pritzker proposed that any business that violates the states stay-at-home order should be fined or even get jail time, but like our Shawano County Sheriff Adam Bieber, numerous Illinois police said they would not enforce unconstitutional orders because people still had bills to pay. Who is your dictator?
On September 8th the Federalist and CNBC October 7th articles describe Elizabeth Warrens wealth taxes and other taxes. Under the terms of the Warren “Wealth Tax”, the American government would act like any fascist Communist or a totalitarian government and would confiscate assets. Warren is proposing that any company worth more than 1 billion (3%) and a company worth over 50 million (2%) of all assets to be seized by the US government. If this was approved what would stop them from increasing the percentage or taking a portion of yours? When the 1913 tax collection law was passed only 3% of the population paid income tax but today approximately 53% pay income taxes. Who is your dictator?
Earlier this year former Vice President Biden was asked about his platform on the 2nd Amendment, and according to the May 27th Western Journal Biden showed what his authoritarian wish would be. Biden said that no amendment is absolute. What does that mean? That tells me that Biden does not intend to protect the Bill of Rights or the US Constitution. Who is your dictator?
April 24th, Fox 11 News reported that the ordinance against violating the health laws gives the Green Bay Police the option to ticket violators. Eric Genrich is the mayor of Green Bay and a Democrat. The maximum fine is $1,000. September 25, WTAQ radio reported that Brown County is going to begin naming businesses and events that are not following proper COVID guidelines. Health Officer Anna Destree says that the county can issue citations and close the business to the public. Who is your dictator?
Governor Evers just extended his July 30 mask mandate until November 21. How has the mandate worked? Who is your dictator?
March 23rd Robert Barnes, a constitutional lawyer, expressed concern. Barnes warned that governments across America have used the media-stoked panic to limit, restrict or remove First Amendment freedoms of speech and worship. Americans are exercising their 2nd Amendment rights to purchase guns and ammo. Because governments across America are issuing no-arrest and no-detention orders for a wide range of crimes in their community and freeing inmates from prisons. On March 19 the BBC reported that Los Angeles reduced its prison population by 600 and NY Mayor DeBlasio announced NY prisons will identify prisoners to release. On March 17th the Hill reported that Philadelphia police will delay arrests for some nonviolent crimes amid coronavirus outbreak. Our 4th Amendment is being violated when tech companies are used to surveil and spy on our movements and everyday activities. Stay-at-home orders keep you from earning a living without due process. That is a violation of the 5th amendment. Barnes describes violations of the 6th & 7th Amendment. The real pandemic threat is here. It is the panic that will quarantine our Constitution. Who is your dictator?
