They don't want king to rule for them, in their name and one person
that they can hold accountable, they'd rather have swamp, numerous
unknown elite members colluding and who are out of reach?
Maybe it's fair in life that people get what they want.
The underlying sensibility towards laws in the US explains quite a bit.
For quite a while it has been common, at all levels of government, to
have laws, but to not enforce them. By this I mean not getting even as
far as prosecution and trial (or plea).
Over a long period, very many people have come to see lack of
enforcement as the *normal* approach, and so when in-force laws are
actually enforced, this is unusual.
You are now hearing a newly adopted epithet that'll be used increasingly
by the progressive left, and that is "cruelty". In interviews of the protesters here in PDX, the enforcement of the immigration laws is
"cruel". They are concerned with the feelings of the unlawful residents
and place it at a higher public value than conforming to in-force laws.
This is a sort of a blind, unquestioning nurturing attitude, and is
pretty much a sign of how feminized the common sensibilities of the
urban US are at this time.
FWIW, it's also a very poor way to raise children, in my opinion. The
best results I've seen is very few rules, and as close to 100%
enforcement as possible. The *level* of punishment need not be severe,
but very consistent enforcement is imperative.
Basically, this is BF Skinner stuff, nothing more.
Good post.
