Grassroots Failures

We, as Conservatives, fail, time and time again, to protect and support our grassroots. This is best explained through an explanation of our current issues.

On the Left, they have appointed Attorney Benjamin Crump as their Guardian ad Litem and other lesser known Attorneys throughout the nation his de-factor deputies. They are funneling their money and resources through this army of knowledgeable individuals to further their needs, push their goals, and protect themselves from all manner of scandal. We have nothing similar.

The Left does not care what a person’s past, present, or future looks like. If someone is in the public spotlight and it fits their narrative, the Left swoops in to the rescue. We should do the same. It does not take much. Dexter Taylor needs $400,000 to get out of the utterly unconstitutional situation he is in. If half a million people donated $1 he would be good to go with a little kicker to juice up the accounts while we are at it. Surely we can find $400,000 to support our 2A agenda. Surely. It does not take much, yet we fail to perform. Disgraceful.

It takes Anti-American, Leftists less than a day to rescue people who burn down entire cities in the name of Black Lives Matter. We cannot rescue this man whose 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 9th Amendment Rights were stripped from him? The Judge, from the Bench, stated that the 2nd Amendment does not exist in her Courtroom, for Christ’s sake, and we cannot put up a couple of bucks a piece!? Why do we even convene meetings? Why do we even try?

This is but one example. Every day the Left is putting their considerable power behind random people in the community. It is time we do the same. Our grassroots are inactive, and that is everyone’s fault. We are failing to meet the moment where the moment must be met. We are faced with a struggle to emerge. We can do better. We must do better or lose the nation to tyranny.

Family Court

Family Courts are an indication of a decaying society. The entire notion thereof is ludicrous. A family should never bring Government into its home. Ever.

If one parent commits a criminal act against another parent, the police, prosecutors, and criminal courts can handle the matter outside the home. Assault, parental alienation, neglect, abuse, and all manner of criminal matters can be handled without bringing the Government into the home, into the family, and into child-rearing.

Family is the greatest threat to Government. Government is the greatest threat to Family. Strong families, who stick together and can support one another lack a dependency upon the Government that families with weak ties rely upon. Strong families band together into larger communities who rely upon each other further minimizing the need for Government. If a child is situated without his birth-given caretakers, the community - if sufficiently strong and well-connected - can step in to fill that gap.

The fact that we, as a society, have so often turned to Government to manage our familial ties that a category of courts unto itself has arisen in the family’s stead is remarkable. Where are the brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins? Where are the lifelong friends? Where are the fellow parishioners? What kinds of communities are we building if any at all?

This state of affairs harkens back to our first Supreme Court upon which Mr. Justice Iredell sat. He stated in the case of Fries:

"All systems of government suppose they are to be administered by men of common sense and common honesty. In our country, as all ultimately depends on the voice of the people, they have it in their power, and it is to be presumed they generally will choose men of this description; but if they will not, the case, to be sure, is without remedy. If they choose fools, they will have foolish laws. If they choose knaves, they will have knavish ones. But this can never be the case until they are generally fools or knaves themselves, which, thank God, is not likely ever to become the character of the American people."

Has this passage come to falsehood? I understand only a knavish and foolish society could abide Government child-rearing; yet, we have Government child-rearing. We, the Parents, should be raising children. If the Parents are unaccounted for, then the duty falls to We, the Families. If the Families are unaccounted for, then the duty falls to We, the Communities. If the Communities are unaccounted for, then surely we are lost, and the case is without remedy.

If Family Courts are necessary, then our children are living in solitude among the indifferent.
