History Has Been Thrust Upon Us!

By Rich Kozlovich (Updated today three times with new information in support of the positions I've taken here.)
  
How did we come to such Orwellian times?  As I watch the insanity swirling around us I couldn't help but think of this quote from the Lord of the Rings. 
“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
The title of this post, "History Has Been Thrust Upon Us!" was taken from an article by in the Canada Free Press:on August 29, 2020 entitled, What If Democrats Lose?, saying:
If the Democrats lose this election, it is not difficult to imagine that they will go nuts, slash out at anything that moves in the wrong direction. The mobs are sufficiently riled and waiting for orders. To partly paraphrase Victor Davis Hansen: The Democrats have made a Devil’s bargain.
Marxists under Sanders provide the anarchy and chaos while Democrats watch their cities burn, having agreed to do almost nothing. They will keep COVID-19 alive as long as possible to keep the economy down. Never mind the human toll.
When Democrats win, and at the time they were convinced they would win, Sanders will halt the rioting, having delivered a destroyed middle class, a badly wounded America. The Democrats will take the credit, looking like peacemakers. Sanders will then demand payment, a socialist America ready to be delivered to the globalists. And he will get it.
The left has upended all that's held inviolable by Americans.  Americans believe we have the right to speak our minds, run our businesses, eat at a restaurant, walk the streets and enjoy our homes and families in safety, without being physically attacked, or murdered, by out of control mobs.  That used to be known as a crime, now it's freedom of expression.  How Orwellian is that?
These mobs aren't spontaneous.  They're mobs that have been organized all over the nation.  Criminals who are not only encouraged, but supported by politicians.  Elected leaders who all swore oaths to protect and defend the Constitution, which means protecting the citizens who voted them in......and they are not doing either.  In point of fact, they're doing everything in their power to destroy the American culture, the American identity, the American economy, the President of the United States and the Constitution.  That used to be called treason. Imagine that!

Members of the U.S. Congress can't even leave the White House without being attacked by a mob.
Sen. Rand Paul and his wife Kelly, attacked by an angry mob as they left the White House Thursday night, on Friday credited police with saving their lives. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said he took one look at the mob awaiting Republican guests of President Trump, and became "very worried."
Who's behind all this? In this case the D.C. Mayor must share in the responsibility to a large extent.  She, in point of fact, had to allow this group to gather.  All this insanity and violence is clearly an organized criminal effort masquerading as political expression, and they believe this isn't the end, it's the beginning.

Rand Paul says:
My feeling is there is interstate criminal traffic being paid for across state lines, but you won't know it unless you arrest them. Otherwise you just think oh these are just some normal hoodlums from a big city. I promise you that at least some of these members and people who attacked us were not from D.C.
They flew here on a plane, they've all got fresh new clothes, and they were paid to be here. It is a crime to do that and it needs to be traced. The FBI needs to investigate. But the only way you can do it is you have to arrest people. And usually we say 'oh, well, you didn't get hurt, so we're not going to arrest them.'
They were inciting a riot, and they would have killed us had the police not been there. They all need to be arrested, and I'm not saying forever, but they need to be arrested, questioned, they need to say where you're staying, and the bills need to be subpoenaed by a judge, to say 'who paid for your bill, how did you get here on a plane and staying in a fancy hotel, and yet you're acting like a criminal.'
Something's going on here and it's much bigger than people think. But the bottom line is, we can't let the United States become Portland and that's what my fear is...

You think the mayhem in Minneapolis was bad? You think it was bad in Portland? In Seattle? Chicago? New York? How about Denver? Atlanta? Philadelphia? Milwaukee? Washington, D.C.? How about that nice little Kenosha over there? If you think those were bad, just wait for what happens if you do something stupid in November. 
Cities are being destroyed, people's lives are being destroyed, the economy of these cities are crumbling from all this insane violence.  Violence that's not only being condoned by local and state authorities, they're supporting this criminal behavior by refusing to enforce the law, and even refusing to charge those arrested by the police for the crimes they're committing.  Police departments they're trying to defund!   Police, leaving their citizens at the mercy of criminals, rapists, thieves, brutes and barbarians.  Police who are being deliberately targeted by these barbarians as a result of their complicity in all this criminal activity.  All the while charging as criminals those who are defending themselves against these monsters.
But it's not just the violence.  The states have imposed insane and irrational mandates on the entire nation over this over reaction to the latest coronavirus scare mongering, none of their predictions have been valid, and for good reason, see the links below.  The entire nation is facing massive economic harm as a result.  People have lost businesses!  Businesses that will never reopen.
 Employees have lost their jobs and are going broke, many losing houses or behind on their rent and facing eviction.  
Fights are breaking out over wearing masks in spite of the fact it's known the masks don't work and in fact, are unhealthy.
As a history buff I intellectually understood how all this could overtake a society. But reality is a shocker as I see it actually unfolding right in front of my eyes, in America!  I now truly understand how dictators take over a country using propaganda and fear.  How easy it is to turn citizens against one another, in order to take power when everything has fallen apart.

The consequences of these lockdowns has been devastating to the nation's health.  Suicides, untreated afflictions that's ended up costing lives.  Governor DeWine of Ohio has an impeachment issue but says he's not focusing on that according to a spokesman!  He's focusing on saving lives and creating jobs!  Really?   How Orwellian is that?  Since virtually everything he's done has the opposite effect, and it doesn't take a degree in medicine or economics to understand that.

This coronavirus scare mongering "has been a godsend to the oligarchs, who are licking their chops as one small business after another fails, leaving Americans with no choice but to spend whatever money they have with corporate behemoths."

We need to define this reality as it is, and not how these insane politicians and their acolyte conspirators in the media define it.  If we want clarity, we need definition because that's what leads to clarity.  Clarity then leads to understanding.  Understanding leads to good decision making.  And if we want harmony, it will take good decision making.

Truth is the sublime convergence of history and reality.  History has a foundation and a context.  What we're told should bear some resemblance to what we see going on in reality.  If what's presented to us fails in either of those categories, it's wrong.  Then all we have to do is develop the intellectual response to explain why it's wrong.

We simply can't escape the fact that "history has been thrust upon us. We will either be a witness to a greater America or the greatest catastrophe this nation and the world has ever experienced. Without America, there will be no where else to go", and now it's time to "decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
