You might ask, “Why would Christian Nationalists disrupt a Christian service to arrest Christians praying? Doesn’t that violate their religious freedom?”
Because these Proud Boys are also White Supremacists and the people praying aren’t white. They only believe in religious freedom for themselves.

Both experience and logic tell us that a democracy cannot be expected survive if it allows sweeping power to be granted to people whose intention is to subvert the democratic and constitutional functioning of the state.
It isn’t “democratic” to allow such people to take power.
It’s suicidal.

'Over wide open stretches of undulating fields the wind blew furiously, icy cold cutting like a razor. Clustered here and there were oases of timeless pools within black wet forests that fractured the driving force, dissipating it for sweet relief.'

I also wish to clarify with regard to Kid Rock that by “that’s their one guy” I don’t mean he has any discernible talent or anything like that. He’s just the one I’ve heard of because he had that song Cowboy in 1999, you know, the one that goes “cowboy”, no I don’t really remember it either

Dear US federal agents, the 1765 case of Entick v Carrington on warrants being required to enter properties was decided *before* your revolution and so forms part of your common law too.
ICE is now claiming it can arrest people without a warrant.
This comes after another internal memo asserting ICE agents can forcibly enter homes without a judicial warrant.
Hello? Democrats cannot let these blatantly unconstitutional actions continue. Not another penny for ICE.
