Sedona AZ (August 22, 2014) – The following is a letter to the SedonaEye.com editor:
Editor;
Ferguson, Missouri is the focal point of the latest in a series of statements that have fueled or brought about disastrous situations that make the “Rule of Law” appear wrong or outdated, which is not true: The “Rule of Law” is the binding principle that holds this nation together; without it all is lost. The antithesis to the rule of law is rule by executive fiat, which is being pushed forward under the current administration.
The act of exercising “Executive Orders” that are contrary to the Laws that have been duly established through the Congressional Process is akin to a “Monarchy” or “Dictatorship” and this Administration with the Presidents’ Pen and Phone; Pledge and Policy along with those that empower his actions specifically Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Attorney General Eric Holder and some “Bobble-Head Doll” mimics in the Supreme Court are causing the adhesive of “Rule of Law” to be rapidly replaced with a corrosive element, which is “Legalizing Unjustified Exceptions to the Law.”
There is nothing more devastating to any entity, whether it is: Family, Neighborhood, School, Civic Group, Church, Business, City, County, State or Nation; than “Unjustified Exceptions to the Rules” for anyone. We have started down this road before, and if not stopped it will lead to the ultimate destruction and this Nation has made some serious steps; on its’ way toward the “Point of No-Return”. The untimely and divisive comments made by Political and Media “Talking Heads” i.e. President Obama, Governor Nixon and Mainstream Reporters that sound as though the Police Officer is “Guilty” before any investigation; which is fuel for the “Fires of Anarchy”.
In Sanford, Florida the Law was rushed by “Racial Protest” and the same thing is happening in Ferguson, Missouri. The amount of influence these pre-mature and generally counter-productive acts make is impossible to assess, but there is no way to figure and investigate a crime scene in the middle of a “Riot”. Should we change our Laws to be compliant with the “Misunderstood and Misused” term “Democracy”; if so should we just let public opinion determine everything; let the “Rioters” decide what is legal and legitimate? A Lynch-Mob is Democracy in Action. Communism calls for Democracy: The National Socialist (NAZI) Adolf Hitler was Democratically Elected with an Overwhelming Majority. Democracy is one of the most dangerous words in the English language and its meaning is distorted by Politicians and even Conservative Media Personnel every day. Anarchy is the end result of Democracy.
Our Nation is “A Republic”, which should be obvious to anyone that learned the “Pledge of Allegiance” (and to the Republic for which it stands). If anyone participates in the riotous behavior and calls themselves “Christian” or “Patriotic” they need to solidly evaluate what it is they are doing. The Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson types gain in notoriety and financially, and for that reason they love conflicts.
The only winners in taking action without knowledge are “Thieves and Anarchists”; the victim’s families are exploited and exposed to widespread injustice, besides having to relive the tragedy.
To summarize; in these horrible conflicts “Good People Lose” and “Winners” can best be described figuratively; as the offspring of a canine female that does not recall the male contact at conception.

SoCals don’t get what the writer means. Here’s what we’re thinking looking for the wicked truth.
Ferguson fails the litmus test of racial intolerance or prejudice based on NPR reporters own reports on Poverty and Race. Seems the looters came in from out of town, seems the marchers came in from out of town encouraged by radical groups, seems the major network coverage created bias where none existed, seems locals know and have been working on resolving diversity issues within the communities with success and with initiatives in-place to be considered, the community has good and bad white and black officers like every police department globally.
Eric Holder tried to spin himself out of Ferguson FAST because the administration looked like Warholians. (look it up)
Prez, WE voted for you guys! Stop embarrassing us!
Demand that the administration get to the black on black murder conversation. Demand that the administration get to the black on black lack of accountability conversation. Demand that the administration get to the black responsibility conversation. Blaming the economically responsible and hardworking blacks, whites, Asians and Latinos doesn’t fly anymore with the younger and smarter generations. We grew up in diverse communities. We don’t buy into the packaged race baiting conversations.
We despise the likes of Sharpton and Jackson. They don’t represent. They are Wallets.
An innocent unarmed white kid was shot and killed by a black cop the same week. Didn’t see whites justifying attacks on the black community. Didn’t see CNN reporters converging on a white barber shop trying to get its hard working owners and customers to say racist comments.
To their credit the Ferguson MO barber shop owners and customers wouldn’t and didn’t fall to the CNN anchor race baiters. Bro Lemonhead stop failing our brothers and sisters by being manipulated by your controllers to engage in a fake reality tv show.
Like the NPR reporters (black women) said they were surprised to discover most Ferguson MO blacks hold jobs and many have more than one and most had no problem with the quality of life in Ferguson MO. Why is that? Why are NPR reporters surprised?
The Asian community didn’t rise up against the black community after that fat pig kid stole and pushed around that gentle old Asian man working in the store. That kid was not innocent. His parents called for peace because they knew their son was a bully and out of control. They were ashamed of big fat bully boy. He didn’t have to die but his own choices brought him down. He’s a thief, druggie using and gangsta friend looser. Sorry parents you failed. Own it.
We’re younger than you and can figure it out. Why don’t you?
Wicked Proud schooling it as dif colors, shapes, sizes and attitudes SUCCESSFULLY
