Lawmakers across the country are looking at
ratcheting up penalties for violent protests, which is fine, although it's kind
of like gun control, we already have scores of felony laws on the books that
violent protesters are in violation of (destruction of property, assault,
etc.). Those laws merely need to be enforced, with harsher penalties. (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-21/politicians-across-america-continue-push-make-protesting-illegal)
The problem with this push is that it's actually the
WRONG focus on these new forms of
protests...the paymaster.
Protests that are not organic and done voluntarily
aren't really protests, they are, in effect, criminal conspiracies and should
be treated that way.
For instance, if there were some mythical Left-wing
Billionaire...kind of an oxymoron, no? I mean imagine IF a George Soros had not been a helpmate to his uncle, a Nazi
collaborator...OR if dozens of American Tech Billionaires DIDN'T support paving
over the world's beautiful mosaic of various cultures and heritages to make it
easier for THEM to conduct global
trade?
Hmmmmm....OK, so maybe there are a lot of Leftist
Billionaires. So imagine if one of them decided to pay for protests, that is,
to pay to help people travel from one location to another, to conduct training
in how to avoid arrest, to disrupt speech that "promotes hateful ideas,"
etc. ALL, ostensibly, "good
things" in that they aren't designed to promote violence, right? It
doesn't matter. According to the laws against racketeering and criminal
conspiracy, that paymaster, in funding such an action/operation, assumes
responsibility for all outcomes. That means that if a given event has 100
incidents of violence, that paymaster can and should legally be "on the
hook," so to speak, for inciting/funding them, even if the perpetrators of
those actions weren't among the paid protesters.
THAT is
the legal construct which Jefferson Sessions effectively used to bankrupt the
Alabama KKK.
It's also why Jeff Sessions is so necessary as
Attorney General AND why he scares
Leftists from Chuck Schumer to Nancy Pelosi so much. A proper focus for a Sessions
Department of Justice (DoJ) would be to focus those constructs on Left-wing
groups from ANSWER, to the New Black Panther Party to the Action Network,
ACTION United, etc. AND those individuals associated with funding such
entities.
The question some ask is, "How is disruption,
violence? Don't protesters have an equal right to free speech in shouting down
those they vehemently disagree with and feel are poisoning the atmosphere with
hateful discourse?"
It’s NOT
"freedom of expression" to deny another the right to speak, so merely
shouting someone down and effectively keeping them from speaking IS a form of
violence...it is denying that person their inalienable right to freedom of
expression.
Of course, most such "protests," are also
often physically violent, like the one against the GREAT Charles Murray at
Middlebury College (http://reason.com/blog/2017/03/03/a-professor-who-attended-charles-murrays)
this past Thursday, March 2nd, 2017.
The relentless attacks on Jeff Sessions, a man of
much higher moral character than the likes of Ramsey Clark, Janet Reno and Eric
Holder is about the fear that Jeff Sessions will RIGHTFULLY transform the DoJ
and begin using RICO statutes and "Criminal Conspiracy" charges
against Left-wing groups, effectively silencing the opposition to the Trump
administration's plans to change both America's demographics (via E-Verify and
other such anti-ILLEGAL immigration measures) AND its voting patterns (via
"Voter ID" laws and other such plans) that run counter to what the
Left calls, "A half century of slow progress" in America.
