Popular History hasn’t been taught legitimately in the history of the written word, of the spoken word. It’s all propaganda to make the victor look swell and the other side be the scapegoat. Not saying some things didn’t happen but there are so many examples of things largely glossed over or completely left out of books and education. The best we can do is educate our children; there is the history you will hear your teachers and many repeat like a good parrot and then there’s what real history is. I plan on doing that!
Defunding and removing the police sounds sketchy to me because I know they will turn around and hire private companies and contractors like the former black water guys then we are all up shits creek.
You are Very accurate, they do NOT want Police they do not directly control! This is extra-constitutional and as such, can NEVER become acceptable. This inability to stop pushing for full tyranny, may force violence from those who just want to be left alone!
Real History requires that a person looks from all sides, reading books written by the victors, and the defeated. I prefer books written by those who actually fought, it can be eye opening. I just hate to see that same mistakes in news stories, being deified by the MSM!
>:(I wonder about all these BLM people, those who say that all lives do not matter, just black ones...I wonder who they will call when this all settles down and they happen to get robbed or have a run in with criminals. The police?
The funny thing is that, in a lawless community, those peaceful people will be preyed upon by the violent ones...Exactly like is happening, or has done recently with innocent businesses targeted, destroyed and looted. We will see how peaceful they are at that stage...And if they decide that the police are there to protect and serve them. Sure, there are some bad ones, but many good ones. It is the screening and training that needs attention. It also doesn't help that there are almost 18,000 different law enforcement agencies in America, but I am not there so what do I know?
I also agree with your intention of providing your children history in its true form, not the indoctrination that is pushed in schools in America and abroad. It is important to be informed and also to have the understanding and ability to inform oneself, with the truth and with perspective...Not just read a meme on Facebook and raise a fist shooting kill cops. Terrorists.
