VIDEO: Protest to ‘Abolish ICE’ in Ohio Turns Really, Really Weird

It seems the Democratic Party and leftists in general are on a mission to practically gift wrap the 2018 midterm elections to the GOP, especially now that they are completely losing their minds on the immigration issue and demanding that the government abolish the Immigration Customs and Enforcement agency.

A recent Columbus, Ohio protest calling for such action to be taken took a strange and disturbing turn when activists decided to hoist a woman up on a large wooden contraption and duct tape a man to the base of the object, all the while chanting “F*** the police!” in front of news cameras.

This is pretty insane.

I’m on Front St. at a rally to abolish ICE. A woman is harnessed in a 32-foot-tall tripod with a person duct taped to the base. They say she’s not coming down until action is taken. At least 14 cop cars and fire are present. @DispatchAlerts pic.twitter.com/BfZ4Y7j9ry

The woman has been released from her harness and brought down by Columbus Fire. A man is still duct taped by his hands at the base of the tripod. At least two people have been arrested so far. @DispatchAlerts pic.twitter.com/Z1FaWuuqpW

Protesters have moved in front of LeVeque Tower at the Broad St. entrance. I’m told by organizers that several protesters are in the ICE office, but that floor is currently locked. @DispatchAlerts pic.twitter.com/y6tb9Y0ahZ

I was told by police at least eight people have been arrested for various charges, including disorderly conduct. The 8-10 people in the LeVeque Tower have been removed from the ICE office for trespassing, police said. @DispatchAlerts

What these “enlightened” individuals fail to understand is that we are a nation of laws and we expect folks who want to come and be part of our country to abide by our laws and respect the boundaries we set at the border.

A nation without borders isn’t really a nation. Borders are essential for our sovereignty as a country and when folks just willy nilly sneak over and disrespect our laws and take advantage of our charity, it encourages others to do the same, leaving our resources depleted.

ICE is just doing their job to enforce the laws that already exist on the books, the very laws designed to keep criminals from coming into America and dealing out significant damage to our communities. They are absolutely necessary at the moment and the vast majority of Americans know this is true.

But if the left wants to continue to deny that, go right ahead. It only ends up making folks vote for GOP candidates and further the conservative movement. We need all the help we can get.

Free speech is a fickle thing, and precious too. If we’re not careful, it can be stripped away but those who hide behind the claim that a “private” company can limit your personal freedoms. Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms are almost always the culprits here, bending the algorithmic reach of those with whom they disagree. Enter Parler: A free speech app where only the bare legal minimum of content would be moderated. The platform became incredibly popular with an astonishing swiftness, but soon faced trouble from companies who had previously aligned themselves with Facebook and Twitter’s more controlling stance. Apple, who had previously booted Parler from its App Store, has now relented to the Constitution. Apple has approved Parler’s return to the iOS app store following improvements the social media company made to better detect and moderate hate speech and incitement, according to a letter the iPhone maker sent to Congress on Monday. The decision clears the way for Parler, an app popular with conservatives including some members of the far right, to be downloaded once again on Apple devices. The letter — addressed to Sen. Mike Lee and Rep. Ken Buck and obtained by CNN — explained that since the app was removed from Apple’s platform in January for violations of its policies, Parler “has proposed updates to its app and the app’s content moderation practices.” On April 14, Apple’s app review team told Parler that its proposed changes were sufficient, the letter continued. Now, all Parler needs to do is to flip the switch. The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.

For many North Carolinians, neighborhood living brings with it the peace of mind that the most invasive animals you might have to deal with are squirrels who are trying to rest in your attic, or raccoons hoping to fatten up from your trash can. The Tar Heel state has some bears, sure, but they’re not often the pestering or dangerous type like you might see in the Pacific Northwest or parts of California. But one man this week got up close and personal with a seriously frightening creature this week, after it lunged at his wife from underneath their car. A disturbing video captures the moment a rabid bobcat attacks a North Carolina woman—and the moment her husband grabs it off her and throws it through the air. Kristi and Happy Wade of Burgaw were walking to their SUV to take their cat to the vet the morning of April 9 when the growling animal ran across the street and attacked, WIS-TVreports. After throwing it several feet, Happy Wade eventually shot it after it ran into the couple’s garage and then continued to charge, ABC 11 reports. A neighbor who had been jogging by at the time stopped to help and called 911. Video of the incident is simply unbelievable. https://twitter.com/nojumper/status/1383145940807163904?s=20 The bobcat was injured by Wade and later euthanized by local law enforcement. An autopsy revealed that the animal was indeed rabid, and the family has been undergoing treatment for their numerous bite wounds.
