America's freedoms Being Attacked

IT HAS BEGUN”!
“The American way is under attack from within”.
Freedom of speech and the right of peaceful assembly is being attacked. ‘Not from the Federal Government“, but from the radicalized extreme wing of a major political party. Intimidation and coercion has become the tool of this militant faction. It seeks to divide the country, suppress peaceful gatherings for discussion of political issues, silence freedom of speech by those it disagrees with, and control government agenda.
In it’s application it seeks the demise of mutual cooperation and the Democratic electoral process and leads to violent dictatorial methods for change of power. It is the door to the anarchy and the chaos of the most dangerous places in the world.
The recent shouting down, and now the showing up at town hall meetings with not just hand guns, but automatic military style assault weapons has opened the door toward further intimidation and explosive situations. It is inviting an unbalanced, or seemingly unstable person to act upon the emotions fostered by biases and or prejudicial hate. It is a show of the desire to use any method to control public input in the political discussions other than their own.
It began years ago with the injection of disrespect within the halls of government, to divide the opposition for political gain. The use of the Us and Them tactic became entrenched in a political party and has trickled down into the population. The use of religious beliefs became tools to place a wedge between the electorate and label one side the righteous patriots, “US, and the opposition “Them“.
Misinformation, innuendo, and lies, the old standby in political campaigns became an industry. Confusion of records and facts and intimidation denied the electorate the truths needed to make educated judgment became an enhancement to the Us and Them mind set tactics. Where in history did we see those tactics used??
