In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.
Countrymen,
ORBIS NON SUFFICIT
SOLUS DEUS SUFFICIT
You are at your home tending projects that interest you. Suddenly your back door smashes open and in charges a gang of criminals armed with truncheons and firearms. Your wife and children shriek in fear. You rush to protect them, armed with a shotgun, a pistol and a knife. As you near your wife and children, the criminals smack their heads, dropping them to them floor and then, from behind, smack yours. You also drop to the floor, stunned. The shotgun goes out of reach but your handgun is concealed in your waistband, a .380 auto.
The criminals ransack your home. You remain prone but check the condition of your wife and children. They are conscious and able to signal their ability to rise on command. You motion them to remain prone and quiet. Your wife does not home-carry but you do. Each of you has a cell phone on your person but you do not use them because you do not want to invite attention to the fact that you are sentient and able to act with decision.
The criminals rip up your home searching for anything that could be of value to them. Those things they load into a truck accomplices bring for the purpose. Most tools you, your wife and your children need to conduct your lives go into the truck.
Satisfied they have everything of value to them, the criminals splash kerosene on exterior and interior walls of your home and put a match to it. Fire starts. The criminals depart. You call 911. Your wife calls 911. Your older children call 911. Neighbors hear noise, see smoke and unusual activity and come running. They also see the truck. Some call 911.
You yell to your wife and children to follow you out of your home, and they do. All are well but shaken. Dog and cat are already outdoors.
Before fire response arrives, most of your home burns to the ground. Police also arrive and cordon off your home from your ingress and egress. You, your wife and children stand helpless, the physical base of your life gone and inaccessible. Your family is without a home, a base of support.
What to do?
Your thoughts quickly go to basics. Beds for your wife and children. Food for them and the cat and dog. Your wife has ideas and resources. You conference. Neighbors offer temporary help. But their lives are just as prone to ravage as yours was and now is. They see ransack right in front of them. They are frightened and consider you and your family bad luck.
What are you prepared to do?
Americans today are in this condition. Their nation has been ransacked and set alight. They are homeless. Still alive, but without tools to support life. Everything they need to live their lives has been stolen and their base of life — their home — burned to the ground. So far, the criminals have not killed them, but Americans know that too is coming because criminals never sate their appetite for destruction and because civilian government officials Americans pay to protect them will not protect them. Civilian government officials will protect criminals because they are criminals.
Criminals and government officials who protect them define and embody concupiscence. They want to take everything into themselves, to eat everything. It cannot get worse for Americans. So …
