A quotation from Twain

A strange thing, when one considers it: to wit, the world applies to Czar and System the same moral axioms that have vogue and acceptance in civilized countries! Because, in civilized countries, it is wrong to remove oppressors otherwise than by process of law, it is held that the same rule applies in Russia, where there is no such thing as law — except for our Family. Laws are merely restraints — they have no other function. In civilized countries they restrain all persons, and restrain them all alike, which is fair and righteous; but in Russia such laws as exist make an exception — our Family. We do as we please; we have done as we pleased for centuries. Our common trade has been crime, our common pastime murder, our common beverage blood — the blood of the nation. Upon our heads lie millions of murders. Yet the pious moralist says it is a crime to assassinate us. We and our uncles are a family of cobras set over a hundred and forty million rabbits, whom we torture and murder and feed upon all our days; yet the moralist urges that to kill us is a crime, not a duty.

" A high-ranking Russian officer was eliminated as a result of the assassination attempt.

An explosion occurred in one of the military garrisons of Khabarovsk Krai, which, according to a number of Russian sources, may have been an attempt on Major General Azatbek Omurbekov. "

I am not saying these claims are indicative of anything beyond concern. But this is a "TIDAL WAVE" of concern.

"‘Staged’ Shooting Claims Hit 80 Million Views — and Counting
Claims that the shooting incident at a Washington press event with President Trump was staged go viral — pushed by accounts that made the same claim about two previous Trump assassination attempts."

Two points:

1) #Trump has now received three #Assassination attempts

How many other presidents have not had even one?

Maybe Trump needs to look at his conduct and his language first?

2) At least twice the #SecretService has not secured the perimeter of these mass events

In #ButlerPA the Secret Service left an obvious warehouse rooftop unsecured, which the shooter fired from

Here, the heavily-armed shooter got well inside the hotel and was only a staircase away from the #WHCA dinner

Seven inch glass won't stop Secret Service incompetence

Finally #MikeJohnson is a smarmy, ass-kissing little tool

The amount of security incidents involving Little Donny is overwhelming for the Secret Service every time people want to shoot at him the time before this one someone shot near his ear at a Rally

Who Will Be Romero Today?

On this day we remember Archbishop Óscar Romero, murdered on March 24, 1980, while celebrating Mass. The church remembers him not simply as a tragic victim, but as a martyr whose blood was joined to the blood of the people he refused to abandon. Vatican sources still name him what so many already knew him to be in life: a “voice of the voiceless,” assassinated at the altar because he would not stop speaking for the poor.

Romero was killed soon after one of the most fearless sermons of the twentieth century. Addressing soldiers and police, he said that they were killing their own campesino brothers and sisters, and that God’s law stood above the commands of violent men: “Thou shalt not kill.” He declared that no soldier is obliged to obey an order against the law of God, and he ended with that thunderous plea: “In the name of God… cease the repression!”

That is why Romero remains dangerous. He did not speak in abstractions. He did not bless power from a safe distance. He did not soothe the conscience of empire. He named the sin directly. He named the victims directly. He named the moral responsibility of those ordered to carry out injustice. And for that, he was silenced by a bullet at the altar. Yet even in death he was not silenced, because martyrdom is a form of speech the powers of this world do not know how to answer.

Ten years later, in 1990, his name was still summoning people into the streets. The flyer for the Washington march commemorating Romero’s assassination called for an end to U.S. war in Central America, a march from the Capitol to the White House, and even nonviolent civil disobedience after the rally. It named the demands plainly: end U.S. aid to El Salvador, withdraw U.S. advisers, stop repressing the people, end the war against Nicaragua, lift the trade embargo, normalize relations. That call was real, and it was public. It survives in archival collections even now.

And I remember that day not as a line in a history book but as something lived in the body. Ten years after Romero’s assassination, I was arrested outside the White House after I and other activists built a miniature Central American village there. We were trying, in our small and vulnerable way, to make visible what policy papers and patriotic speeches tried to hide: villages, families, campesinos, the poor, the disappeared, the threatened, the dead. We were insisting that Central America was not a chessboard for Washington, but a place of human beings made in the image of God.
