										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is not to say that veterans are nonpartisan. There clearly are members of the military and veterans who are Republicans, Democrats, and independents. It HAS been documented over the years that the military tends to lean Republican, but that&#8217;s neither here nor there.</p>
<p>There is the latest craze called the &#8220;Wall of Moms&#8221; which the media immediately praised in unison.</p>

<p>But IF you take the time to search, you&#8217;ll see these aren&#8217;t just moms, but moms sounding like #woke millennials. Seriously, does this sound like  language &#8220;moms&#8221; would use&#8230;?</p>

<p>In case you&#8217;re not up on the vernacular, <strong><a href="https://www.dictionary.com/browse/womxn" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">womxn</a></strong> is defined as <em>&#8220;a woman (used, especially in intersectional feminism, as an alternative spelling to avoid the suggestion of sexism perceived in the sequences <span class="italic">m-a-n</span> and <span class="italic">m-e-n</span>, and to be inclusive of trans and nonbinary women)</em>; <strong><a href="https://www.outlife.org.uk/being-non-binary" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">non-binary</a></strong> is defined as <em>&#8220;a wide array of different identities which fall outside of the gender binary, and can be related to, or completely separate from male and female gender identities&#8221;</em>; and <strong><a href="https://www.dictionary.com/e/gender-sexuality/folx/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">folx</a></strong> defined as a <em>&#8220;variation on the word folks, folx is meant to be a gender-neutral way to refer to members of or signal identity in the LGBTQ community&#8221;</em>.</p>
<p>Does that sound like your &#8220;mom&#8221;?</p>
<p>And we don&#8217;t think any self-respecting mom would help their children damage federal property.</p>

<p>And as the attention was positive for the agenda-driven, the left decided to pile on.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">First, there was a</span> <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/07/20/portland-moms-form-human-shield-to-protect-protesters-from-feds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">“wall” of moms</a> <span style="color: #808080;">protecting Portland protesters — now there’s a wall of vets doing the same.</span></p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">A group of military veterans joined protesters in the city for the first time Friday night, standing with their hands clasped behind their backs or holding Black Lives Matter signs, according to</span> <a href="https://twitter.com/ByMikeBaker/status/1286884473934503936?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">a New York Times reporter</a> <span style="color: #808080;">and</span> <a href="https://twitter.com/Joshuajered/status/1286887995350622208?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">others</a> <span style="color: #808080;">from the scene.</span></p>

<p>There&#8217;s a lot to be skeptical of here.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>As per some Democrat city mayors, the general public has to wear masks while &#8220;peaceful protesters&#8221; have no such mandate to observe.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>More often than not, Black Lives Matter protesters haven&#8217;t been wearing masks.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>Meanwhile Wall of Moms protesters, and now Wall of Vets protesters, ARE wearing masks.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>Antifa-types wear masks to obscure their identities while committing their acts of civil disobedience, destruction and violence.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>Seeing how anyone can say they&#8217;re something they&#8217;re not, Stolen Valor goes <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2017/08/08/sen-richard-blumenthal-last-person-call-anyone-honesty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">relatively unpunished</a>, if not rewarded.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>Most veterans don&#8217;t condone or participate in public lawbreaking.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">•</span> </strong>Anyone can pose as a &#8220;mom&#8221; or a &#8220;vet&#8221; behind the disguise of a mask.</p>
<p>The <em>Walls</em> may be the real deal. Seeing how the left has no problems with <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2013/12/07/hate-hoaxes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">blatant deception</a>, reasonable doubt is valid.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The national media has mostly shielded the &#8220;mostly peaceful&#8221; George Floyd-inspired protesters from the attention they rightfully deserve.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8457467/White-female-protester-tells-black-cops-problem.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14129 size-medium" title="&quot;White protester screams at three black cops during D.C. protest telling them 'they are a part of the problem' and yells that she's 'allowed to say this to whoever'&quot;" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/white-protester-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/white-protester-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/white-protester-500x281.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/white-protester.jpg 634w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>We&#8217;ve seen online video of privileged white women shouting at black police officers, asking them why they&#8217;re on the force, and declaring they are protesting for them. We&#8217;ve seen video of young white males destroying private businesses, toppling statues <em>(some honoring black pioneers)</em> and occupying public streets in neighborhoods far from their own. Seldom is this shown on CNN, MSNBC or any of the nightly local or national newscasts.</p>
<p>KGW 8 in Portland recorded a press availability with Officer Jakhary Jackson of the Portland Police Bureau and this is a perspective of on-the-ground accounts that are obviously counter to the narrative driven on social media about #BlackLivesMatter and the chaos their demonstrations have had on our society.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1m4e5zSrt78" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>Those of us who support the police hope that their superiors, elected officials, and media blowhards would stand next to an Officer Jackson and see for themselves what these &#8220;mostly peaceful&#8221; protests are really all about.</p>
<p>Like that would ever happen&#8230;.</p>
