National lockdown to fight coronavirus: What it means - India News

From May 25, 2020

By now, I hope, most people have noticed that the states with the most onerous restrictions imposed on their people are all Democrat states, with Democrat governors making like Mussolini. And surely you’ve noticed that whenever a state draws near the date set by the governor for the end of the lockdown, they move it back another several weeks.

You can walk on wet sand, but not on dry sand. Don’t step outside without a mask on. Don’t even think about buying seeds for your garden. And so on. One “mandate” after another. We used to have laws. Now we have mandates.

Democrats are enjoying this like it was a beer party in heaven. Somehow burdening the American people with innumerable restrictions, some of which don’t make any kind of sense at all, is supposed to endear them to the voters, turn them against President Trump, and sweep their warmed-over socialist rag-pile party back into power in November. Like, all this stuff that Democrats are doing to us–that’s all Trump’s fault.

What? How?

Shut up, they explained.

The Democrats abuse us and reckon we’ll blame it all on Trump. I don’t understand that thinking. It only works if our Free & Independent Nooze media go whole-hog Democrat and the people–maybe God has driven them mad–believe them. The party and the noozies have to work closely together on this… as they’ve been doing all along.

Is America truly stupid enough to fall for this?

God forbid.

The Face-Mask: Our Badge of Submission

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

We need a powerful 'people movement' in support of wearing face ...

I had to go to stores today, so that means I have to put on my anti-virus (they wish!) face mask–my badge of servility, the outward token of my submission to the all-powerful, all-knowing state.

But everything’s a “mandate” now, we don’t debate legislation anymore, and our masters never ask us what they ought to do; no, they tell us what we must do. Or else.

And anybody who voices opposition to the continued “lockdown”–you know: like they have in  prisons when the prisoners get rowdy–is sure to be called a White Supremacist, even if he or she is not white. It would appear there are some folks who like the lockdowns just fine and hope they go on and on until we get permanent socialism. If they hear the word “freedom,” they sneer.

Do we really want to be wards of the state, our whole lives? In a condition of perpetual childhood? Perpetual dependence? Who needs freedom, if the High And Mighty are going to take care of you forever?

God, who really is all-powerful and all-wise–and all-righteous, too! Don’t forget that!–endows us with our freedoms and respects them. He will not use us as puppets.

For sinful, fallible, broken, foolish mortal men and women to play God, to act as God, is obscene and blasphemous. They guarantee our safety, but they can’t deliver. They promise all sorts of utopian goodies, but it’s only empty words. The only thing they’re really good at is abusing and oppressing people. They’ve got black belts in that.

We must never again be stampeded into anything even remotely like The Great Lockdown of 2020. If there’s a crisis and there’s no time to discuss it now, then be doubly sure to discuss it later, as soon as possible. Discuss and debate. And if the action taken to deal with the crisis is unlawful, wrong, ineffective, or worse than the crisis itself–then for sanity’s sake change course!

But with only secular fat-headism to guide us, and in ignorance of God’s ways, we aren’t going to do that well with any crisis.

P.S.–One of our neighbors just came to our door and gave us a bottle of rubbing alcohol. She is now my friend for life.

There are a lot of people who don’t go bad in bad times: and praise the Lord for that.

We should be scared stiff when we contemplate the speed with which governors and mayors and city councils wiped out some of our most basic liberties–to say nothing of how fast we were able to cripple the world’s most prosperous economy.

When Do We Get Our Freedoms Back?

Now we’re in perpetual “lockdown”–originally a prison term. Oh, some of the Red States have begun to inch open again. But Blue States and Democrat-controlled cities–if the big shots have their way, the lockdown will go on and on at least up till Election Day. And they will promise that if we vote for socialist Joe Biden, they’ll let us go back to living our lives.

This must never be allowed to happen again.

And the Democrat Party must be destroyed in this year’s election. Destroyed forever, never to return.

You Can’t Say ‘Chinese Virus’ in San Antonio

Town Council Meetings Cartoons and Comics - funny pictures from ...

Not terribly pertinent–but who can’t use a laugh, these days?

People are dumb or trusting enough to elect you to their city council, and you think they’ve volunteered to play house with you as the all-wise, all-powerful father and them as the not-always-so-nice little kiddies who need a firm hand at all times.

The city council of San Antonio, Texas, unanimously (a vote of 11-0) passed a resolution condemning “COVID-19 hate speech” (https://news4sanantonio.com/news/local/san-antonio-mayor-proposes-resolution-denouncing-covid-19-hate-speech), because–it seems–if people know it came from Red China, they’ll go out and commit hate crimes.

Does that mean I have to stop calling it the Chinese Communist Wuhan People’s Liberation Death Virus From China?

Also verboten in San Antonio is any “spread of misinformation regarding COVID-19.” Hmm… Dr. Fauci used to say you couldn’t catch it from other people. He was wrong. But how do you tell the difference between “spreading misinformation” and simply being wrong?

Well, it’s only a resolution so far, not a law, so probably Herod’s men can’t drag you out of your car and toss you into jail. Yet. Maybe it depends on how angry Big Daddy gets. “You kids really bug me sometimes!”

Dude! When do we get our rights back? When do we get to be adults again? When do you mayors and councils and governors stop being our parents?

Cheesed-off minds want to know.
