No doubt England’s King George, circa 1776, believed that rebellious British subjects in the ‘New World’ were treasonous for taking up arms against the Crown. The way it turned out, though, was historic: A country was born on the universal principles of self-rule, freedom, and liberty, never before seen in modern human history.
Today, however, another rebellion is brewing in America. But this one is not being led by people who want to set others free. It was sparked by a political party that has decided the only way it can empower itself once more is through the pursuit of lawlessness, anarchy, and – eventually – authoritarianism.
After months of elected Democrats calling on their supporters to “confront” Republicans and “get in their faces,” it has become nearly commonplace to see or read about GOP candidates, elected officeholders and members of the current administration to be threatened, physically accosted, or harmed.
It happened again this week, this time in Minnesota, as the Washington Free Beacon reports, as a pair of Republican candidates were physically assaulted – punched – by extreme Leftist supporters of the Democratic Party.
The news site reported that Minnesota state Rep. Sarah Anderson was literally struck in her arm after she saw a man destroying Republican yard signs. “It was just insane,” she told the WFB, saying the attack only ended after she beat a hasty retreat to her nearby vehicle and got out of there.
“He was charging at me, saying, ‘Why don’t you go kill yourself?’ To have someone physically coming after you and attacking you is just disheartening,” she added.
And over nothing more than political differences.
When are Dems going to be held responsible?
She wasn’t alone. Shane Mekeland, a first-time candidate for state representative, suffered a concussion after he was sucker-punched in the head by a coward as he spoke with constituents at a restaurant in Benton County. He told the WFB that he’s since suffered memory loss, even forgetting Anderson’s name during his interview with the news site at one point. Doctors said he’ll have a four-to-six-week recovery effort ahead of him. After he was struck at the restaurant, he said his head struck the floor.
