Kenders' Musings

Recently, and by "recently" I mean within the last two years, the discourse in this country has dropped in quality. It has been taking a nosedive for many years, but the last two years has really highlighted the differences in the way people think, how they frame an argument or belief, and how they view such critical things as "Sovereignty", "National Security" and the definition of "Lawful".

It also serves to highlight the emptiness, hypocrisy and hollowness of the lies the left continue to spread in their doomed quest to regain power rightfully lost when they became too corrupt and hateful to continue to represent the noble and courageous citizens of this great experiment in self governance.

You see, it is within the last two years that the Minutemen have become active, working to help keep our borders monitored, reporting to government agencies when those borders are breached, in short, doing some of the work that our government is unable, or unwilling, to do.

The actions of these Patriots have earned them scorn in much of the mainstream media, and has led to lies being spread about them and their mission. People take at face value the label that the Minutemen are racist vigilantes, (a term first used by President Bush, the same man that the left ignores or derides for his words 90% of the time), but the Minutemen are NOT racists, and you wouldn't call a cop a racist simply because he patrolled a neighborhood that was peopled by a majority of people that shared the same skin color.....unless you are a leftist, and then that line of reasoning is perfectly acceptable.

So I have been called a racist. That is patently untrue, as it is in almost every case of the left labeling someone a racist simply because they wish the laws regarding our borders were being enforced.

Let's look at the word "racist" shall we?

NOUN racist - a person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior to others

By that simple definition I am not a racist, as I don't believe that my RACE is superior to any other race.

I do believe, however, that my CULTURE is superior to that of other cultures, and this may give some a reason to pause and call me a bigot, and this may be true, but I am, at least, a thoughful bigot, unlike the screeching automatons that scream I am a racist.

Let's look at the word "bigot" and we will see just why being a bigot is NOT actually a bad thing, but, in this case, a position that is well thought out, well defended and ultimately the RIGHT thing to be..

NOUN 1. bigot - a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own

Pay special attention to the word up there in italics....the word is "intolerant".

Let's look at that word shall we?

intolerant adj.
Not tolerant, especially:
a. Unwilling to tolerate differences in opinions, practices, or beliefs, especially religious beliefs.
b. Opposed to the inclusion or participation of those different from oneself, especially those of a different racial, ethnic, or social background.
c. Unable or unwilling to endure or support

See that bottom definition? "Unable or UNWILLING to support".....see? I am UNWILLING to support those views that are contrary to views I hold, and that is because I have thought about these views, have seen the results of the policies wrought from the views that are different than my own and have decided that MY VIEWS, IDEAS and WISHES are SUPERIOR to those I stand against.

Why do people come here? Because they have no "socioeconomic mobility" in their own country. They have "no job prospects" or they "can make twice the wage here", or "they have more opportunity" in the U.S.

Trace back every damned excuse save the very few that come here seeking "political asylum" and you will find economic concerns at the base of their reasons. Even the political refugees are, at heart, here because of economic considerations. If they have a robust economy at home they aren't going to be politically active to the point of fearing for their lives. Unless they are a complete raving idiot. Then they simply sign up as a democrat once they hit the border and they're good to go. (rumor has it that howard dean ended up in charge of the party in just this manner)

So, back to why I can be a bigot, and why that is a good thing.

I am going to keep the reason here short and sweet. I will outline the thought process for you.

I am a bigot because I will tolerate no discussion of another system being superior to the one in which I believe, because I have seen the results of the systems that stand against the system I believe in, and have come to the conclusion that the system I believe in is superior for the simple fact that the system I believe in continues to get stronger, while all of the systems that stand against my system have either failed or continue down a road of failure, dragging their adherents down with them.

My system is the Rule of Law and Capitalism, Freedom and Natural Equality.

Multiculturalism, socialism, open borders.....these things are the enemies of my country, the enemies of my system and the enemies of Freedom.

I am NOT a racist, but I am an American Patriot, and the time is quickly approaching where the people will have to decide "whither goest the land", and when that time comes, those people of conviction that believe in hard work, self-reliance and Freedom, and understand the meaning of Sacrifice, Duty and Honor will have to stand up and defend our land from the enemies both without, and from within.
