Big Bob, be careful what you post. I am looking at your ugly soul. Maybe you only have a sole.

As someone who has been certified as an international election observer in multiple foreign elections, if I had been observing the 2020 US election, there are numerous aspects that would raise very serious questions about whether it was free and fair which I would have noted in my report. Those situations warranted thorough investigation. Unfortunately, US courts were gunshy in the extreme and did not let any of those issues even get to the discovery phase to examine evidence. US courts have a history of being overly reluctant to allow election challenges when compared to European courts. That is a serious flaw in American democracy.

If you turn a blind eye to election fraud, you are not a true friend of democracy.
A recent poll showed 62% of American voters expect significant election fraud in the 2024 election.

Attacking a country's heritage should not be tolerated. There should be very severe penalties for any attack on a historic monument with very substantial jail time. Whether it is the pro-Hamas rabble that has attacked a number of historic monuments including recently the Liberty Bell, the eco-loons who attack great paintings and other cultural items, or the radicals who attack southern monuments, the way to stop it is to severely punish this behavior.
There should also be a tolerance for use of whatever force is necessary to stop these attacks on historical and culturals treasures. With the Hamas or Silent Sam attacks, high potency riot control gas should have been deployed and the participants rounded up. Anyone not a US citizen should have been immediately deported. All students in the Silent Sam attack should have been immediately expelled. Everyone else should have been criminally charged with every crime possible, and active sentences sought. WE simply must stop these attacks on our heritage by the loony left.

The problem with the Non Patriot Left is that they see everything through the political prism of there always will be winners, and then losers, where one group is given the sanctioned privilege of picking the pockets of others, all at the expense of society as a whole, while stating simple-minded slogans like: "He is an Existential Threat to Democracy;" and "We're All in this Together."
Now, that is truly some simple talk, even when one considers it coming from the mouths of Democratic Socialists, hypocrites all.

The danger to America is from your Maoist crowd which wants to inflict a Maoist style Cultural Revolution on America. Pitch forks and torches from the WOKE mob.
Anyone who tears down monuments to soldiers who fought to defend their homeland from aggression is a despicable scumbag. And so are the Maoist jerks who defend their vandalism.

There are some teachers here in eastern North Carolina who help create the climate of hate against Donald Trump and Republicans. Something needs to be done to stop it. Political messenging should not be done in the classroom. The colleges and universities are even worse.

I'm reminded of the maniacal looks on the faces of the UNC students tearing down the Silent Sam statue, which is a memorial for actual UNC students of a different time. Educators should be a bulwark to barbarism. It is disappointing when they are not.

With the breakdown of our law and order, I guess Death Threats to not count.
Federal law prohibits transmitting "any threat to injure the person of another" and penalizes such threats with five years in prison. But not all threats are created equally, and the Supreme Court has determined that only "true threats" can be punished.

A poll here in North Carolina last year showed that 71% of parents are concerned about political indoctrination in the classroom in our public schools. The key battle here is on curriculum, which our GOP Lt. Governor Mark Robinson has fought very hard on at the state level but it has been hard to get the attention of our local school board majority.
I like the British public school statutes that prohibit teachers from covering a politically contested topic unless they fairly present both sides. The last Conservative government in the UK used this law to shut down propagandizing CRT. Also, in a court case about students being shown Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth", the British High Court ruled that it is a propaganda film with multiple misstatements of fact and ordered that it not be shown to school children without disclaimers of those things.
