"If the left choses to gnash their teeth, howl at the moon, yell at everyone, and threaten our judges - that is on them. I would hope they would not. What the courts did was fix a couple of knots in our national fabric this week. Things which needed to be done. Now it is over. Time to move on. Time to all get along."
Whom, who was alive during that time, could ever forget the plea of Rodney King after he was beaten by four white cops - all of which were charged and then acquitted? In 1992, the city of Los Angles exploded in riots and violence. A truck driver named Reginald Denny was pulled from his truck and beaten - because he was white. Things got so bad, the person who initially who was wronged - Rodney King - publicly pleaded for all of us to just "get along."
Rodney King, who unfortunately is no longer with us, would be helpful to have around right now. Why? He could see the greater good. Even though he was wronged, he wanted the violent aftermath to end. He wanted all of us to get along. Maybe (my words, not his), to forgive and forget.
After this week's SCOTUS rulings, especially the ones on 2A and abortion, our Democrat leaders, especially the President and the Speaker of the House, showed anything but leadership. They threw the "Trumpian" Supreme Court under the bus, and all but encouraged protests (albeit, this time, non-violent). They also encouraged everyone to remember this day - where the courts let the people down. "We need to codify Roe!" screamed our Roman Catholic President and Speaker. "We need to elect people who will support a woman's right to choose! It is a right which the court has now taken away!"
Really? Here is what the court really said. Roe was flawed law. Should have always been an Article 10 issue. The court also said the Second Amendment was sacrosanct. Our rights which accrue to that amendment, do not end when you walk out the door of your house. That is it. Simple as that. The 2A ruling was about what was already in our Constitution, and the Roe ruling was about something which was never in our Constitution. What? You don't like our Constitution? Good news for you - there are ways to change it. Not easy ways - but ways.
Now this week is about to pass into history. What happened in the Supreme Court is over. Time to move on. As Rodney King said, "Are we all going to now get along?" I am ready to. Time to address our nation's real problems. Time to fix things. Time to move forward.
If the left choses to gnash their teeth, howl at the moon, yell at everyone, and threaten our judges - that is on them. I would hope they would not. What the courts did, was fix a couple of knots in our national fabric this week. Things which needed to be done. Now it is over. Time to move on. Time to all get along.
