A Call to White American Christians

If that’s you, then you got it backwards.

As I begin writing this around 3:40pm ET, January 6, 2021…Today a terrorist treasonous mob has come to the capital. They have come to disrupt and destroy. And many, perhaps most, have come, some with signs, proclaiming the name of Jesus.

For the last four years I have repeatedly said that most so called white Americans would prefer to destroy this country and keep the parts rather than continue to participate in a democracy that is growing more racially diverse and urban. What the president has done to gain power, along with his sycophants and ambitious power-hungry supporters in Congress, is foment and leverage this feeling among mostly so-called white so-called Christian nationalist that they are losing their country. The hypocrisy of this mob being allowed to proceed mostly unimpeded into the the seat of our government to destroy our capitol in comparison to the treatment received by so many Black Lives Matter protesters this past summer is repeatedly being pointed out on cable news and on my social media feeds. Since white supremacist militia’s have infiltrated our law-enforcement and most of the so the called police unions endorsed our current president, the stark difference in law enforcement response should not be surprising.
