A Hard Moral Decision....
Now that you’ve heard from every Dim, the presstitute’s, and the administration, and far more disturbing seen the actions of an obviously politically motivated FBI, I hope you’re as incensed as I continue to be. Remember, the FBI answers to the Department of Justice, which answers to the President. So, I’m sure an low level agent would have to quit his job rather than comply. A hard moral decision to make when you have many years invested. That said, exercising a warrant to confiscate the iPhone of a citizen who’s crime is voting against the current administration is a choice between a moral crime and, in my humble Constitution complying opinion, a traitorous act. We’re teetering on the edge of a one party dictatorship. One would like to refuse to comply if one knows the knock at the door is an FBI who comes only to discourage you from your political beliefs, but then those sent to the door are merely doing the job of keeping their jobs. Should Director Wray or AG Garland themselves, or Pelosi or Schumer beat on my front door, my reception would be far less polite.
It’s a sad affair and hopefully only a glitch in the history of our Republic when the head of a political PAC, in this case Matt Schlapp (author of The Desecrators) feels the urgent need to lecture his children on how to react should the FBI knock on the door. And when an ex-president’s greatest supporter, the outspoken (think 1st?Amendment here) manufacturer of pillows, has jackboots confiscate his iPhone with the hope they’ll find something to arrest him for, motivated only by the wish to discredit that former president who they fear is on the comeback trail. That said, many years ago I lectured my four sons on respecting law enforcement should they be challenged for any reason. And this coming from a guy who once knocked a young cop down a flight of stairs breaking his arm, as I feared he was about to break mine, and was arresting me (at 19 years old), in front of 20,000 football fans, for something I hadn’t done. It took a year to resolve that in my favor, without the benefit of an attorney neither I nor my mother could afford.??It was a little hard to unwind as with 20,000 witnesses there was a pile of depositions a foot deep. A long story for another time.
