A well-funded progressive socialist disorganization such as ANTIFA equates Republicans, conservatives, and Trumpians as fascist reminiscent of Hitler’s Brownshirt Nazis. BLM ideologically Maoists, espouse “Defund the Police,” crediting systematic racism as the goad, the mot juste, to explain police officers’ inclination to kill black and brown men.  

For these riotous ruffians, arrest by lawful authorities is not just a waste of time and money. For these scofflaws, an arrest is considered a rite of initiation, a badge of commitment to destructive or injurious action. Break a window, fracture a nose, an arm, or a leg, burn down a building, loot, rob, and steal; all is justified, say the racially oppressed and their inherently privileged white sympathizers.

These progressive left entities have zero interest in counterevidence or factual(s) that are aller a contre-courant or contrary to their indoctrinated beliefs. Therefore sanity requires that counterview tolerance must end with the inducement of fear, pending bodily harm, and the actuality of physical assault.

Any demonstration of grievance, jubilation, or the meeting of old friends armed with MAGA references and sponsorship is intimidated and demeaned by ANTIFA and BLM militants. The liberal progressive city and state governments will not protect any Trump supporter from physical abuse or general harm. Therefore, the organizers of MAGA demonstrations must anticipate the forthcoming and prepare for the worst outcome.

When those of the opposition to civic order equips with helmet, shield, baseball bat, and bricks, their intent is not to debate some argumentative merit—this is not the time to break out a camera, rely on one’s lawful behavior, or to disburse. It is the time to call in and tactically maneuver the embodied, equally armed, protectorates. The use of reasonable coercive force to counter coercive force is the definition of self-defense—the defense of another and the defense of a third party  

The loss of the presidential election amplifies the apparent need for self-protection. The average ally of Trump conservatism or opponent of the Biden Harris brand of progressive socialism would not ordinarily carry clubs, bricks, shields, or frozen plastic water bottles. The intent of the counterparties of Biden Harris, validated by their action, is not to suppress thought or voice. Conservatives endorse law and order as the bedrock of civil society.

ANTIFA and BLM are not interested in deductive rationality nor the societal sense of reasonableness. They want to rid the nation of the common sense of righteousness. Like the bully in the schoolyard, he/she of ANTIFA and BLM only respond to the like same in response. They are willing contrivers, contrarians, and belligerent doctrinaires. Prompted by the direction of the strongest wind, they chase after what does not exist. Believing the end justifies the means, they set aside virtue, moral sensibility, and countervailing arguments.

We conservatives cannot wax our ears, cover our eyes, and ignore cognitive sensibilities while these ignoramuses attempt to destroy our constitutional republic.
