The takeover of a country generally takes years to set up, but a relatively short time to complete. Kristallnacht, The October Revolution, The Cultural Revolution, and The Killing Fields are all examples of this “last straw” effect. The American people have stood by and watched while those in government have taken more and more control of our lives. We complied when those who claim to hate America demanded that we submit to the destruction of our rights and liberties.
Today, we see not only the wholesale destruction of our rights but the constitutional republic as well. And what do most Americans do in this extension threat to our freedom? For most of them, it’s to whine on social media, that is if they do anything at all. Are we witnessing America’s own “last straw” events? Is this the historical moment when the experiment in self-government fails? Are the people fiddling while America burns?
