Cheering for tyranny

Why are our freedoms vanishing? Is it because the tyrants are so clever and they are able to overcome the wishes of the people? How do we get these freedoms back? Is voting the solution?

Our freedoms are vanishing because that’s what people want. They want to give up their freedom and be under the boot of a tyrant. They cheer for the tyrants.

That is what I see in this Daily Record article. The “conservative” Republican leaders and constituents cheered for an evil building code enforcer. I don’t care how nice he may have been, his job was to make sure that people don’t exercise too much freedom, and to aid in the process of property tax collection. The assessor needs accurate data to collect taxes via the most evil form of taxation.

I’m all for building safe buildings and inspecting the work of others. That is required in Scripture as part of the command to not commit murder. However, government is the worst way to accomplish that, and that was only a small part of this guy’s job. Government is completely out of control in their interference of the building process, and here, this guy gets slapped on the back and congratulated. He is the enemy of freedom and of the principles this country was founded on.

So, NO, the tyranny won’t be solved by voting harder next November, or any November, until a good percentage of the people repent and learn how to discern good and evil. Until guys like this are tarred and feathered rather than congratulated, there is no hope.
