- Thomas Jefferson
We have also learned that despots prefer timid subjects. In the USA the imperial government desecrates the memory of Thomas Jefferson by insisting that all behave timidly in said place. Words like “solemn” and “reverent” flow from them to describe the atmosphere and behavior they expect at the memorial. Thomas Jefferson would have objected to this. He knew better than to call that liberty.
Thus, when we tried to protest their violently arresting people the week before for silently dancing at the memorial they moved in to stop us. Ultimately, the police prevailed by pushing everyone out of the memorial. Fortunately, no one was hurt or arrested.
While they did allow the demonstration to continue on the steps of the memorial it seemed to this observer that the results were mixed. There was dancing at the memorial and that was a victory for our side, the side of liberty. On the other hand, the government was able to shut down the dancing after a short time and that was a victory for their side, the side of tyranny. No doubt Thomas Jefferson would have been honored at our celebrating liberty as we did at his memorial and dismayed by the police state that caused us to have to do so.
