It is the law that makes us ‘the best of animals.’ So saying, Aristotle had a very specific conception of justice in mind: ‘The law is reason free from passion.’ Committed to live under it, mankind is ‘perfected.’ There is, however, a flip side. ‘When separated from law and justice,’ as happens when passion overwhelms reason, mankind ‘is the worst of all.’
Which would make this the worst of times.
The streets of America’s greatest cities are aflame. Some of it is anarchic. Most of it is methodical mayhem. Cultural Marxists are not merely desecrating statuary, they are erasing history. Naturally, this is done under the guise of ideals such as ‘anti-racism’, ‘anti-fascism’, and ‘equality’. Up close, the anti-racists are race-obsessives, the anti-fascists are totalitarian ideologues, and the radical egalitarianism on offer is a perversion that would supplant equality of opportunity with coerced results and an inevitable caste system. As woke white campus reactionaries, clad in their ‘BLM’ t-shirts, confront beleaguered African American police officers, a vignette repeatedly seen but studiously unnoticed in media coverage, you can’t help but wonder as to whether black lives matter to Black Lives Matter.
But the campaign is working, not because it is effacing iconic images of our society, culture, and history, but because it is destroying the rule of law that makes possible a civilization worth having. Its replacement is the rule of the mob.
Trump is the mafia mob rule
When the mob can simply break the law, we don't have democracy anymore.
Trump is the mafia mob rule with the help of Russians and gullible Republicans

I’d like to see the animals tearing down the statues arrested.
Corporatists influence you so that you should hate government,
When the mob can simply break the law, we don't have democracy anymore. They are not the majority, and we did not vote on those statues.
It is imperative to catch and imprison everyone tearing down statues.
People laughed when Trump said that Washington and Jefferson were next when the mob took down a statue of Robert E. Lee in Charlottsville, VA in 2017:

But Trump was right.
Will our government defend the rule of law or not? If not, we all need to buy guns right now and re-establish the rule of law.
