From what I can find, the Missouri private neighborhood in question consists of two streets and about 94 expensive historic homes. So seems to be a lot of their neighbors — all without sin, no doubt.

I wonder what percentage of the neighbors that 38 represents. How many didn’t sign? Was it a majority or a minority? Have any neighbors spoken up for them?

The willingness of people in the US (where we should know better) to betray the rights of others has been increasing for a long time. Now it seems it has reached major, and probably majority, proportions.

Very depressing if true.

There appears to be a full court campaign to destroy and ridicule them. Such as by my snobby artsy Brooklyn ‘friends’ on Facebook who want the couple disbarred as civil rights attorneys— for exercising their civil right to bear arms —and their taste in fashion and home remodeling.

Am I required to throw bricks at my own windows if confronted with a similar situation?

If you want to see “white privilege” in action – more accurately, elite privilege (as witness the many white residents of Capitol Hill who were just as discommoded and ignored by their mayor as everyone else) – this is it. If you want to see more of it, elect radical-left Democrats. They’re the ones who, systematically and as a party, repeatedly demonstrate willingness to sacrifice other people’s property, livelihoods, and even lives to “woke” politics.

They empower agitators to “afflict the comfortable.” The “comfortable” always turn out to be the ordinary middle class, the people of all races and backgrounds who work every day for a living, pay taxes for police because they can’t afford private security (and don’t have paid security as a perk, as elected officials do), and have little or no cushion when disaster strikes.

But the same radical-left Democrats do whatever it takes to protect themselves.

We all know this, and some others are learning it, but the hard-core leftists will never admit it (and will try to prevent the evidence from being seen) and far too many of their dupes will either not see the facts, or will deny the conclusion.

Rosenberg, who started out as a member of the 1960s revolutionary group Weather Underground, graduated into even more violent, and arguably successful, forms of terrorism in the 1970s and 1980s—including bombings at an FBI field office in Staten Island, the Navy Yard Officers’ Club in Washington, DC, and even the U.S. Capitol building, where she damaged a representation of the greatest of the Democrat defenders of slavery, John C. Calhoun. She currently serves as human and prisoner rights advocate and a vice chair of the board of directors of Thousand Currents.

As my colleague Robert Stilson explains here, BLM Global Network Foundation has been a fiscally sponsored project of Thousand Currents, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, since 2016. That means the BLM group, which runs the BlackLivesMatter.com website, does not have its own IRS tax-exempt status but is operating as a “project” of an organization that does. In the case of 501(c)(3) fiscally sponsored projects, this allows tax-deductible donations to be made to the project.

Marxist Connections

When “Black Lives Matter” is used to refer to an organization, it typically means the BLM Global Network Foundation that traces its beginnings to “three radical Black organizers — Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi.” Cullors recently went viral online when she admitted that she and others in the group were “trained Marxists.”

This leads to confusion when people express their support for “Black Lives,” because they may not realize this organization is ideologically tied—to the point of having Rosenberg on the board of the central group—with trained Marxists with a history of extremism and violence. In fact, Rosenberg was a member of the May 19th Communist Organization (M19). It was, according to this NY Post article from January 2020, “the nation’s only woman-run terror group,” as recounted by William Rosenau in his book Tonight We Bombed the U.S. Capitol….

These ravens repeat empty-headed slogans, and screech about oppression from their perches of privilege down to working-class cops, many black or hispanic, and other ordinary folk who seek to go to work to feed their families. Indeed, the majority of those squawking about white racism and tearing down “white privilege” and “supremacy,” and feigning offense over statues, road names, and Aunt Jemima syrup labels are, well-off white kids–most notably white women full of inchoate feminist resentment and rage. They have had their heads filled with a crude cultural Marxism; they live in a world almost devoid of facts and historical knowledge and context. Violent emotion rules.”
