You Owe Them Nothing - Not Respect, Not Loyalty, Not Obedience

You Owe Them Nothing - Not Respect, Not Loyalty, Not Obedience - Kurt Schlichter:
"Sometimes in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another.
It is high time to declare our personal independence from any remnant of obligation to those who have spit upon the rule of law. 
We owe them nothing - not respect, not loyalty, not obedience.
Think about it.
If you are out driving at 3 a.m., do you stop at a stop sign when there’s no one coming?
Of course you do.
You don’t need a cop to be there to make you stop.
You do it voluntarily because this is America and America is a country where obeying the law is the right thing to do because the law was justly made and is justly applied.
Or it used to be.
The law mattered.
It applied equally to everyone.
We demanded that it did, all of us – politicians, the media, and regular citizens.
Oh, there were mistakes and miscarriages of justice but they weren’t common and they weren’t celebrated – they were universally reviled.
And, more importantly, they weren’t part and parcel of the ideology of one particular party. 
There was once a time where you could imagine a Democrat scandal where the media actually called for the head of the Democrat instead of deploying to cover it up.
People assumed that the law mattered, that the same rules applied to everyone. 
That duly enacted laws would be enforced equally until repealed.
That the Constitution set the foundation and that its guarantees would be honored even if we disliked the result in a particular case.
Image result for democrats lie But that’s not our country today.
The idea of the rule of law today is a lie.
There is no law.
There is no justice.
There are only lies.
Hillary Clinton is manifestly guilty of multiple felonies.
Her fans deny it half-heartedly, but mostly out of habit – in the end, it’s fine with them if she’s a felon.
They don’t care.
It’s just some law.
What’s the big deal?
It doesn’t matter that anyone else would be in jail right now for doing a fraction of what she did. 
But the law is not important. 
Justice is not important.
The attorney general secretly canoodles with the husband of the subject of criminal investigation by her own department and the president, the enforcer of our laws, shrugs.
The media, the challenger of the powerful, smirks.
They rub our noses in their contempt for the law.
And by doing so, demonstrate their contempt for us.
Only power matters, and Hillary stands ready to accumulate more power on their behalf so their oaths, their alleged principles, their duty to the country – all of it goes out the window..."
Read it ALL!
