The political agenda of the mainstream media couldn’t be more obvious right now as America is essentially under siege by an emerging leftist/Marxist insurgency. In order to support this insurgency, legacy media is doing everything it can to promote civil unrest and stoke division.
While it certainly is entertaining to watch the left and the right politicize this event with stunning predictability, make no mistake about it, this is a watershed moment for America.
As this nation becomes increasingly polarized and divided, this incident should make a few things very clear to people.
Firstly, you are on your own when it comes to protecting your life, your family, and your property. We are experiencing a very real collapse of the system, for better or for worse. At the moment, local and state governments are actually permitting social unrest, demonstrating that the government has lost its will to maintain peace and order.
Secondly, fear is spreading like wildfire, and it’s becoming increasingly dangerous. The Revolutionary War began with the ‘shot heard round the world,’ and fear is propelling this society towards some unbelievable event that will catalyze a hot war where Americans begin fighting each other over political ideals.
Thirdly, Americans are way more armed and prepared for self defense than most agitators and political puppets realize.
As fate would have it, we still have the 2nd Amendment, and firearms sales have been skyrocketing in recent months. As Americans watch more and more real-time videos of mob violence, they will notice that those who’ve armed themselves and aren’t afraid to show force aren’t being beaten and having their property destroyed.
The guns are coming out. Those who are not prepared to defend themselves are going to wish they had. Videos like the following confirm this:

Fourthly, the McCloskey incident demonstrates the fundamental principle of civilized societies. That is, violence is power. We live in an exceptionally violent society, although we do a great job of pretending like we don’t. This illusion is crumbling right now. Whatever you may think of these people, what they did was successful in protecting themselves from a violent mob.
Most people don’t see the violence perpetrated by government because it’s so pervasive. Incidents like the George Floyd murder happen all the time with no public attention. The curtain is being pulled back, which is positive, although it opens up a very serious power struggle, which will require applications of ever-greater violence for any one side to gain advantage.
Final Thoughts
The McCloskey incident is another watershed moment for 2020, so keep your eyes peeled as we move forward. Firearms and self-defense have been demonized in the media for many years now, but we are firmly on the brink of a reality when the hundreds of millions of armed Americans have nothing left to lose and no one there to protect them.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

If you can’t call the police you’d better be armed. Wake up gun hating morons. If you get your globalist gun free nightmare you’ll all be crying your eyes out and shitting your pants. The globalist New World order agenda is Communism.
The whole point of the 2nd. Amendment is exactly for this situation. This couple was minding their own business and was threatened with violence.
I am totally behind their actions having no other choice and I would do the same. True Americans following the rule of Law.
These foreign enemies and indoctrinated students need a good lesson on what is expected of an American: Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
‘In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin.
But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…
There can be no divided allegiance here.
Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag…
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language..
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.’
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
I guess these rioters think their parents are proud of them? They are being used.
Breaking that gate down is not a sign of peace. These thugs are behaving like wild animals (my apologies to the animals). I guess Soros does not pay enough for these thugs to risk being shot with an AK-47. Don’t ever give up your guns. If you haven’t read the second amendment, read it and find out what its purpose is.
