Resistance See other Resistance Articles Title: Remembering William Norman Grigg and Questioning the Narrative of the Riots I do not know how many people who visit LewRockwell.com look for the writings of authors who are no longer with us; one of the contributors of some of the most powerful articles to LewRockwell.com was the late William Norman Grigg who wrote frequently on police violence and also the reprehensible and corrupt behavior of law enforcement and government. However, although black, he did not limit his outrage only to those victims who were black; he wrote about all victims, for example Brittany Irish in “We Have a ‘Duty’ to Submit; They Have No Duty to Protect”, or the story of an unacknowledged hero, David Santoro—not a police officer—in “Your ‘Duty’ to Protect and Serve the Police.” Grigg was color blind in that I believe, being a Christian, he saw that there are numerous victims of police abuse of power who are not just black Americans, and he was appalled by violent police conduct against all American victims and didn’t focus on the their race; rather, he realized the problem was systemic. I wonder what he would have written about the violence in response to the murder (as I agree with Fred Reed on this) of George Floyd by a policeman (with other officers as bystanders, doing nothing to save Floyd’s life). However, today Bill Sardi provided a comment that Lew Rockwell posted on his Political Theater blog that raises questions that I suspect will go unanswered: No Quarter: The Raving... Grigg, William Norman Best Price: $20.00 Buy New $14.99 (as of 04:39 EDT - Details) “So suddenly a cop suffocates a black man in the street with an unknown party filming, and the cop is not bothered by the filming, and the cops abandon their headquarters (looked pretty cleansed of papers, etc.) and the cops certainly have intel and would know by infiltration that ANTIFA and BLACK LIVES MATTER are sending saboteurs to Minneapolis. The George Floyd fiasco then becomes center stage. Take our minds and eyes off of the COVID-lie.” Of course, we are seeing violence and destruction perpetrated by not just African-Americans but also white Americans, some identified as ANTIFA. Zerohedge posted “The George Floyd Protests – 20 Unanswered Questions” but I think there are answers; many will not like them. Yet I will discuss them all the same. The Vigilant Citizen posted on May 31st 2020 an article that elaborates on Sardi’s concerns: “George Floyd Riots Infiltrated by Extremist Groups and Agents Provocateurs.” It begins, “The death of George Floyd was as horrific as it was charged with symbolism. A police officer, who is supposed to ‘protect and serve,’ presses his knee on the neck of an unarmed civilian for eight long minutes. Before losing consciousness, Floyd pleads with the officer, saying ‘mama’ and ‘I can’t breathe.’ “Floyd was being arrested for using a fake $20 bill to pay for a pack of cigarettes. He ended up being suffocated to death in a scene that can be likened to a public execution. Because, despite the fact that multiple cameras were filming him, officer Derek Chauvin never let up. It is almost as if he wanted this to become viral.” If there were a proper investigation, by “journalists” or law enforcement, shouldn’t cell phone locations, phone calls, texts, emails and financial records of all the police officers be scrutinized? In this surveillance state with widespread use of smartphones isn’t identification of those violent perpetrators, both black and white, and advance warning available to government authorities? I hardly think this will ever happen. The Vigilant Citizen article ends with the following: Freedom on the Altar: ... Grigg, William Norman Best Price: $2.92 Buy New $6.50 (as of 04:39 EDT - Details) “As protests spread across 30 cities, it is obvious that shady yet heavily organized groups have traveled to strategic places to incite violence. A classic role of agents provocateur is to justify police-state measures such as curfews, lockdowns, and the deployment of the military. “But there is more to this. While the Left blames the extreme-right and the Right blames the extreme-left, one important fact remains: Both ‘extremes’ ultimately work for the same elite. They are both used to sow hate and division in the country while destroying it from within. They want a race war, they want class war and they want political war. They want anything that weakens the United States in order to put it under the control of outside globalist forces. “A telling clue that this is all sanctioned by the elite: Mass media’s implicit approval of the organized riots. What happened to the shaming of people for not respecting social distancing? For weeks, mass media blasted people who peacefully protested for the right to go back to work because of COVID. Now that out-of-towners show up in black communities to destroy their local businesses, mass media is nearly praising them. The difference? The rioters are doing the elite’s bidding. “As a conclusion, I will leave you with a Reddit post that got censored its agenda-friendly mods.” Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
