He should never have been allowed to cast his Shadow over what should have been a celebration for both The People of the U.S. and the U.S. Army! Trump and his 'Goons' are what the People created the United States Army to oppose, and what It is still remembered for helping to defeat in World War Two.

Crazy as it is the troops pictured had been trained and carried I.D. to identify themselves.They knew why they were Where they were and in the main were supported by the population. They were disciplined and still subject to both Civil and Military Law. see how bad things have got!

The British Publics commitment to building a Welfare State from the wreckage of generations of Working Class oppression and two World Wars in 20 years, was in order to promote equity in Justice,Education,Health/Welfare,Housing etc. Only this could break the hold of the 'live to be privileged' Elite

Precisely. As mid terms approach you'll find more blue states under National Guard cosh. Then "it's unsafe/unreliable/we cannot guarantee" fair elections. That's it then folks across the pond. You will have lost. If you doubt any of this then look to the history books (before they are banned).

It's all about undermining confidence and bringing Social coordination and control into question. It creates confusion and anxiety. Masking any exchange of liberty and 'rights' worth doing in exchange for the Safety of 'Order and Control', simple and sensible,and arrogance seems like confidence!

'It's called making it up as you go' and is especially useful if you want to create a smokescreen to cover deliberate chaos and incompetence (and you pay no heed to Oaths,responsibility or truth). It worked so well for 'Boris'!

Relentlessly, across a broad social spectrum. The pre WW2 Empire had existed to service the Elite but had also allowed some to prosper who helped perpetuate it's tasks and accepted their place. Socialisation had normalised this. Their response and gift to us was the Welfare State We must keep faith!

The best thing about getting old is you realise how quickly everything passes. Sadly even the 'good' times,but people are incredibly resilient and have far more in common than different to each other and a tendency to cooperate. We will survive this series of mistakes and plow on to the next lot!

Encouraged by the same bought and paid for Press and vested interests (e.g. Daily Mail), there was a great deal of support for Fascism which was almost fashionable right up to the late 30's and Mosely was seen as the kind of Leader that would ensure Great Britains place in Europe's Fascist Future!

Resist but be smart. Solidarity and Visibility are so important Stand together,be seen to be saying 'No' anything else will be seen as acceptance. Aim for an undeniable 'Political Victory' such that the World can see that the majority of the American people do not support this unconstitutional coup

Equity is at the heart of the Welfare State. After generations of oppression and two world wars in 20 years the British Public knew this,picked themselves up from the wreckage and set up to establish equitable rights to Health,Education,Justice and Housing. Those who lived to be privileged hated it
