Shrew View on Blockades

What are your thoughts about the U.S. blockade happening in the Strait of Hormuz? The Shrew believes that this mechanism to break the will of the Iranian leadership is the only way to stop their possession of a nuclear weapon forcing tyranny on the region and the globe. After all, who likes a tyrant? Certainly the “No Kings” activists don’t. And since 1776 the Second Continental Congress didn’t.

The Shrew believes that there is another blockade happening, but this one is in the U.S. For some reason a small faction in this country believes that we are living under a tyranny. This faction of fools clearly don’t understand how a constitutional republic works. The “No Kings” activists are creating their own blockade by forcing their belief that the current administration is lawless. The activist “blockade” is shutting down civic debate, federal jobs that protect everyone, public spaces, and transparency of the NGO’s that have funded and organized them. How is this democracy? It’s not. It’s a revolutionary blockade created to upend the republic. That’s their objective. It has nothing to do with this administration. It has everything to do with gaining their own power and control which, to be honest, is its own tyranny. No one voted for that!

Protest or revolution?

How often have other administrations been admonished by their diverse citizenry for actions that seemed to harm them? It happens all the time in our country which is why we get to: 1) converse with our representatives; 2) have the press report about the facts responsibly; 3) vote for a change when administrative terms are coming to an end. Unfortunately historical context in our educational system is being replaced with grievance theory. This can only lead to the childish response to the current administration that we are witnessing now. And when these activists don’t get their way it is no surprise that they will either lash out destructively or run to their room to cry and plan their next childish move. But, of course, neither of these activities gain them any real advantage. They simply look like the fools that they are.

The current administration is not being foolish with the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. This blockade happened after the Iranian war machine was destroyed and had no choice but to enter into a ceasefire. The blockade is the next step to force a surrender so that we can remove their uranium. That’s the only objective! Sure, some tyrants have been removed too, but their weakened tyrannical regime will still remain unless the Iranian people are strong enough to change it themselves. How long will the blockade continue? For as long as we like because even though the price of oil is increasing, the civilized world is pragmatically solving this problem as I write this post. Not childish at all.

Blockades done the right way are a tool to solve problems, not to create them. Period

A Memorial Day Pledge

Which group is your group? To whom do you pledge allegiance? When your little world falls apart, where do you turn next?

These questions are easy for many people to answer, however there are just as many people who are unable to answer one or more of them. I for instance would rather not have one group be my group because I would find that my little world would not be very interesting. My God given curiosity would never allow for me to stop learning, questioning and voicing my opinion.

Imagine that I never left my family unit until I was forced to marry into a different family and that my entire education was formed by what society intended for my outcome. Imagine further that this outcome meant that my offspring would be bound by their roles, males bear all responsibility of ensuring their family remains a growing generational unit, females marry into a new family and nurture all members to fulfill their respective roles. It seems to me that this patriarchal system would effectively need to keep me in its allegiance because my limited education did not allow for my potential to grow beyond my usefulness as a nurturer. Also, males in the family unit would be limited in their education because their outcome and allegiance dictates that only they can control the established order. Education becomes a means to an end…The end of which is patriarchal control established in law, religion and governance. But isn’t this our system in the USA? Of course not!! Yet many groups forming in this country like Antifa, BLM, Democratic Socialists and the Poor People’s Campaign actually believe it is the system and they want to take it down, destroying the Constitution and all systems of law and order. I believe these groups are made up of nothing more than tyrannical Marxist revolutionaries working on behalf of fringe elements who hate life.

The diversity of people and thought in the USA is exceptional and therefore we must never allow Marxism to permanently take over this great country. Groups here are encouraged to form around a community purpose but not around hateful genocide. Individuals can belong to more than one group and have many facets to their beliefs and ideals. Educational standards are grounded in facts and are merit based because we know that ALL people are blessed intellectually in ways which are special to them. Our freedoms are based on natural rights and allow each one of us to discover our unique purpose in our own time. Our Constitutional protections allow each one of us to keep what we earn. It is our family of choice who we turn to when our little world falls apart, traditional or not traditional. Ultimately the rule of law offers us protection from patriarchy and interminable chaos. Ours is the only system of its kind and this means we must continually strive to keep our Liberty from falling into the hands of tyranny. God bless the men and women who died in battle to preserve this exceptional country!
