I guess the American Left and the celebrity cult that thrives on its plaudits and notoriety have finally stepped over the line. Determined on reverting us from the most enlightened, free, and civilized republic ever on the face of God’s earth to the modern-day terror of uninhibited marauding bands of religious fanatics invading Christian services in today’s bloody and chaotic Nigerian outlands. Or maybe even June of 1964, when a frightening band of men charged into a Baptist church because they believed ‘the preacher’ had something to say during the business meeting they didn’t care for.
That tracks with yesterday, too.
Of course, those asshats came back later and burned the Mt Zion church down for good measure.
I wouldn’t put it past the groups in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the moment.
These out-of-control maniacs have Boko Haram/KKK brains – fired up with insane rage hate, fueled by verbiage from collusive Minnesota leaders and mewling national Democratic policians who, save for the lone voice of John Fetterman, haven’t a single righteous testicle between them and are, I believe, living a secret voyeuristic existence LARPing as revolutionaries while urging others to physical destruction from the safety of their offices and couches.
Look at the woman who reportedly organized the adventures of the rampagers yesterday.
A Black Lives Matter activist ORGANIZED an attack on a church because, reportedly, the preacher there supported law enforcement immigration activities.

Huh. How far ‘civil rights’ have come.
Evening of June 16 [1964]. Armed KKK members of the Lauderdale and Neshoba counties Klaverns assault leaders of Mt. Zion Church where a church business meeting is being held. The Klansmen think the meeting is a civil rights one and that Michael Schwerner might be there. Later that night Klan members return to Mt. Zion Church and burn it to the ground.
We don’t even need ‘Nazis’ when we have…what’s her name?
Ah, yes – Nekima Levy Armstrong. Who had thoughts on ‘the crumbs’ of Dr King’s legacy three years ago and, ironically, how Dr. King’s message, which most of us had always thought was pretty straightforward and was the beauty of his words, has been ‘distorted and diluted.’
I have an idea by who.
Nekima Levy Armstrong, a Minneapolis civil rights attorney and activist, engaged in a lively discussion about social justice and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy for the Law School’s eighth annual MLK Convocation on January 19.
…Armstrong and Ghee did not pull punches about how Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s message has been diluted and distorted over the years.
“People see King today as a widely beloved figure,” said Armstrong. “But often we’re given an inaccurate version of Dr. King. We have to deconstruct his words and not sell ourselves short by accepting a shadow of the truth.”
As soon as I see ‘we have to DECONSTRUCT,’ to me that’s code for ‘I have to make this sound like what I want to sell.‘ YMMV
…Armstrong referred to the changes that have taken place in the 55 years since King’s death as “crumbs” when measured against the sweeping changes that still need to happen in American society to achieve racial justice.
…Armstrong also noted lack of progress on other issues, such as affordable housing and a guaranteed livable wage.
…Armstrong said one issue is the relative passivity of white moderates when it comes to speaking out and acting on racial issues. While it’s easy to condemn the Ku Klux Klan and overt incidents of brutality by police, the concern often tends to stop there, she added.
…A more recent hurdle is the ongoing backlash against and distortions about Critical Race Theory, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the general idea of being “woke,” which some leaders and public figures have turned into a pejorative term, Armstrong said.
“Some of the legislation we’re seeing doesn’t even permit us to talk about race even as we had been, which wasn’t even sufficient,” Armstrong observed.
This is the person who feels Dr. King’s legacy would approve of her charging into a Sunday service at the head of a screaming rabble to attack the pastor.
This is BLM ‘deconstruction,’ but not of anything Martin Luther King ever said. It’s deconstructing the civilized social fabric and norms that hold a society together, using intimidation to achieve its own ends.
It’s no valorous campaign for justice. They’re thugs intent on mayhem and creating a happy little buzz off of the fear and confusion they cause.
Then there are the stupidly useful tools they employ to give them cover, as if they were legitimately engaged in some sort of righteous quest.
Enter the Don Lemons of the world. The narcissistic failures of the world who can’t stand to be sidelined, so they go looking for a trendy fracas to glom onto, realizing the ‘for real’ aspect of it after it’s too late.
In the cold of a Minnesota Sunday morning, though, Don felt a heady rush of excitement as if it were New Year’s Eve in the Big Apple, and he was almost someone again.
Lemon did an interview BEFORE the protest, where the organizers admit they showed up to a church to disrupt it for political reasons. https://t.co/zlFoEGEkgC

Oh, fey Don – he was nearly overcome by the glamor of sucking up to a freedom-fighting church berserker! He had to be swooning at the opportunity to bust down those Batist doors with Armstrong.
This is Don Lemon giving the organizer of the event a kiss on the cheek before interviewing her. He was totally in on it. He intentionally made sure not to disclose any details of the operation so people wouldn’t get tipped off. https://t.co/IdaeFU0F3n pic.twitter.com/o0wZHnSLHZ

I also believe that Ms Armstrong and her useful Lemon tool do not understand what Jesus meant when he said ‘Suffer the little children…‘
Don Lemon should go to prison for this…
He incited a protest at a church and then filmed kids fleeing from that church:
“It is traumatic for the people, and that’s what protesting is about.”

Dr King, on the other hand, most assuredly would have known that torturing little ones with fear, attacking them in the safety and sanctity of the church, and then filming them as they flee in fright was not what Jesus had in mind.
But these terrified children, in the deconstructed, destructive, twisted progressive mind, are justified.
Armstrong and her fanatic religious storm troopers chased these families from their house of worship into the bush.
I wonder what parallels we can draw?
…On Thursday, fighters stormed Pemi as security officials had warned an attack on the Christian holiday was likely.
Villagers fled into the bush and some are still said to be missing.
“The terrorists killed seven people, burnt 10 homes and looted food supplies that were meant to be distributed to residents to celebrate Christmas,” militia leader Abwaku Kabu said.
The attackers burnt a church, abducted a priest and stole medical supplies from a hospital, before setting it on fire.
This is how one of the alleged participants recounts what happened while also trying to justify their actions. People were ‘terrified,’ he says, and he felt he was ‘wasting his time’ talking to those who were too angry at the interruption to understand why they’d barged in.
He is amazed that people were ‘terrified’ by his group of heathens ‘peacefully’ stopping their service and ‘calling out their pastor.’
He is thrilled at the sense of power he has to do this to his fellow man.
The sense of entitlement is mind-blowing.
This is the modus operandi of every deranged and fanatical terror group that has ever existed. Ms Armstrong and her demented peeps will ratchet up their actions because they got away with this, and it gave them major jollies as a bonus.
They have no right to do any of what they did. He has no concept that the one couple whom he believes he convinced to leave the congregation may have done so under the duress of the attack, the completely illegal and brutish attack that violated every right those people had to be in that church and left in peace.
This is non-negotiable. We cannot live like this, with these people indulging in these terrorist actions.
Every last one of them has to pay for this, or there will be more, and eventually someone with a weapon.
Pretty easy to arrest the church terrorists in Minnesota today.

This has to end here.
They have no idea.

The ‘deconstruction’ excuse must be declared invalid, and if you want to LARP at being a Boko Haram Nigerian church raider, I’m afraid you’re going to have to do it there.
