The Rule Of Law Is Dead

When asked upon the conclusion of the original Constitutional Convention, what form of government had been established, Ben Franklin replied, “A Republic, if you can keep it.” For 240 years the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America had a pretty good run. Sadly, the ultimate answer to Franklin’s concern is we did not keep it. The current elite ruling government class has allowed the Republic to fail. For more than a year, the rule of law has been allowed to fail. Riots and chaos have been permitted to run rampant when government officials tasked with enforcing laws, refused to do their duty. In too many cases government officials actually endorsed and encouraged the law breakers. The rule of law no longer applies in those out of control cities, most of which are run by Democrat mayors and city councils.
