Chicago Plumbs New Depths.

You may remember that way back on August 9th 2014 (9/8/14) the Black Lives Matter (BLM) political group was born in the US with the death of Micheal Brown.

This was part of a co-ordinated effort to bring violence, racial hatred and frankly tin foil hat style lunacy into the political mainstream.

It's objective was to sweep the Democrat Party to a majority in both houses of Congress at the November 2014 mid-term election on a popular wave against 'Republican Racism!" It failed and the Democrats went on to suffer their worst election result in almost 70 years.

Since then absolutely nothing has been done to reign in Black Lives Matter and protect US democracy from their nonsense.

The way that the Democrats use of violence and cynical playing of the race has seemingly brought the US to the brink of civil war was the main theme of the 2016 Super Bowl. It was nice though the way that Beyonce was welcomed back into the fold once she stopped her fringe, extremist nonsense.

The way that Black Lives Matter have become the boot boys for the new McCarthyism was also a major theme at the recent Oscars.

The US is currently in the grips of yet another election campaign and this time the Democrats are focused entirely on getting Hillary Clinton elected President.

It should come as no surprise then that once again Black Lives Matter are out in full force. On Friday (11/3/16) they attacked a rally by presumption Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump in Chicago, Illinois forcing it to be cancelled amid violence and threats to public safety.

In terms of a riot this was pretty tame. However as an attack on democracy it was very serious.

For example back in October 2015 the Kurdish Movement for Change (Gorran) Party tried a similar stunt when they sent protesters to attack the offices of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in the Iraqi city of Sulaimani. In response to that outrage Gorran were suspended from all political activity and remain suspended to this day.

On February 23rd (23/2/16) the new Government of National Accord tried holding its first session in that bastion of political stability Libya. Using the tactics of Black Lives Matter in Chicago extremists opposed to that government tried using blockades and violence to prevent the session from taking place. The following day the US' own State Department issued the following statement;

"We are deeply concerned by reports that a small hardline minority used physical intimidation and threats to disrupt the February 23 session of the House of Representatives in Tobruk in order to prevent a vote on the Cabinet. We strongly condemn all attempts to obstruct the Libyan political process."

In terms of reigning in Black Lives Matter to protect America's democracy it should be relatively easy.

Due to the organisations associated with large scale theft (looting), illegal narcotics distribution and violence they fit the criteria of a criminal street gang. Certainly since the terror attack that killed two police officers in New York City on December 20th 2014 (20/12/14) Black Lives Matter has also fitted the criteria of a domestic terror group.

Either of these designations would make membership of Black Lives Matter or association with the through the use of slogans, display of colours or hand gestures used by the group an arrestable offence.

Even without reaching for those extreme measures through their repeated attempts to deny access to a host of public facilities members of Black Lives Matter could be prosecuted for numerous violations of the 1964 Civil Rights Act that they claim to cherish so much.

Failing that members of Black Lives Matter could simply be prosecuted for the various, everyday criminal acts they commit. For example every person who had entered the private venue where the Trump rally was being held with the intention of disrupting it can and should be prosecuted for criminal trespass.

What makes Friday's events interesting is that up until now Black Lives Matter have been protected by the Obama administration in its role as the head of the Federal Government.

However the Secret Service is under as much obligation to protect all the Presidential candidates including Donald Trump as it is President Obama. That duty goes far beyond the men in sunglasses and the side of the stage to making sure the threats are resolved long before they ever get that close.

If the Obama administration continues to prevent the Secret Service from doing their job in order to protect Black Lives Matter and their attacks on Obama's political opponents then that would represent a very serious abuse of power.
