Well. What Do We Do Now?
After a second ICE/Border Patrol-sponsored killing in the streets of Minneapolis, what's the next step for Americans who care about government overreach, justice, and fairness?
Howdy Horn Honkers. Gotta say that Trump’s ICE and Border Patrol is the weakest, worst “law enforcement” l have ever seen in my life - and l watched the brutal, blundering LAPD and Derek Chauvin, et al, same as you have. These Keystone KKKops would be hilarious if they weren’t so glaringly masculine-fragile, weak of will, and murderous.
But their days are numbered.
Trump will not always be there as a protective athletic cup for their tinsel dicks and minuscule manhood.
They will be named. You can count on that. They will be shunned. Their families will be run out of decent neighborhoods. They will not be able to secure a good job. Their children will, or will contemplate, changing their names.
What they don’t realize, as they are currently drunk on illegal and immoral power, is that dear leader will ruin their lives.
What Trump is doing is unsustainable. All thinking people know it.
The Dems know it.
The Independents know it.
The non-voters know it.
Even the GOP, those brave enough to afford a moment of honesty as they feverishly fondle their fascist playbook, know it.
We have seen it before and it is playing out as familiar as the alphabet.
There’s an old saying in Latin, “Fiat justitia ruat caelum.”
Let justice be done, or the heavens fall.
It means justice must prevail regardless of consequences, even if it causes chaos, and that fairness is paramount. Upholding moral rightness is so crucial for now and future days that it outweighs personal or societal upheaval. It’s an unwavering ethical responsibility.
The People will win this battle.
Sometimes, all it takes is one person as a symbol for society, holding grocery bags and standing in front of a tank in Tiananmen Square.
Small groups can make a huge difference. Do not ever doubt that small groups can make big changes. There’s a long list of such groups.
Larger groups can sweep the shit right out of the street. The good guys outnumber the bad guys in this current situation. If this was not true, they would not be so obviously afraid and working so hard to suppress those groups.
All you have to do is not give up.
Or, in the words of the Dalai Lama:
“In your heart and in the world
Work for peace
And I say again
Never give up.
No matter what is happening
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up.”
So.
Let justice be done or the heavens fall.
