Democrats’ double standard when selectively building security walls

One throughout Donald Trump’s presidency. Kamala Harris and other progressives strongly opposed the construction of a wall along our southern border. They argued it was xenophobic and a waste of money, since walls don’t work this week. However, as the democratic national convention was held in Chicago, the convention site was surrounded by metal fencing and concrete barriers. Dump trucks and other heavy duty vehicles were also deployed. Apparently, walls and other barriers work when they’re protecting elite politicians from progressive protesters, but they’re racist when we seek to maintain order at America’s border in order to enter the convention center, attendees were required to also provide ID photo IDs, when Republicans in Congress and state legislatures had proposed photo IDs required for voting progressives, they argued that such a requirement is unnecessary and racially discriminatory. As governor of Minnesota during the riots of 2020 Tim waltz delayed calling up the National Guard for several days, Minneapolis suffered hundreds of millions of dollars in property damage, and businesses were destroyed as images of buildings and automobiles and other property burned, they were broadcast all over the national news, and then they were distributed on social media. So then riots spread all over the country. Every city in America now had excuse to come outside of the pandemic and Riot because of George Floyd. Also this week, Illinois Governor JB Pitts activated hundreds of National Guard troops to supplement a large contingent of Chicago police in order to protect the convention attendees. So while police were often constrained from stopping rioting and destruction during the Summer of Love in 2020 progressive politicians welcomed their presence and protection as they gathered in Chicago this week. Protecting America’s national security and ensuring public safety are primary responsibilities of government. That’s why we need to secure our national border and appropriately screen people who seek to enter our country. The people inside the Chicago Convention Center need to recognize that average Americans have the same rights to be protected as those attending their national convention. The candidates and other speakers said they are committed to protecting democracy, but they continue to oppose common sense measures to protect our election system. In order to maintain trust in the government and election outcomes, it is vital that the appropriate safeguards are implemented and that they’re enforced. We also need oversight and transparency throughout every step in the process, especially in states that have weeks of early voting and large number of votes cast by mail, national security, law enforcement and election integrity are key components of a strong and healthy democracy.
