"So the real Satan is seen in the Iowa’s capitol building itself. If all traces of gratitude to the true and living God have been expunged, then that is the Satan we are up against. Not the cartoon Satan lying on the marble floor, but rather the marble floor itself. And there are 49 other glorious structures, very much like it. 50 monuments to apostasy, and then there is the Capitol in D.C., the central Temple of apostasy. Godless domes, godless pillars, godless marble floors. These are the corridors of humanistic power which industrious pagans are cleansing of all references to the source of true law, the God of the Bible, and with some patsy Christians helping out. This true law is the only kind of law that is not arbitrary and capricious. All laws rooted in the nature of man are, of necessity, corrupted like he is, changeable like he is, and evanescent like he is."

Rod Dreher asks, "I don’t understand why the government doesn’t deploy the army and shoot rioters until they stop. Philippe Lemoine, a Frenchman, says it’s not that simple."
Excerpt:
"We have let things rot for so long that, at this point, relying primarily on force to restore order would require a degree of violence far greater than what people realize and what is politically feasible.
It's possible to contain a riot using only moderate force when the number of police officers is high relative to the number of rioters, but when riots are so widespread and involve so many people because you have allowed this kind of things to happen for so long, that's just not possible and you have to use extreme violence to make up for the lack of manpower.
I know people on the Internet will say that it doesn't matter and that we should just do it, but the reality is that most of the people in charge are not prepared to use that kind of force and neither would most ordinary people if they saw ...
Even Marine Le Pen’s recent statements track this line: personal Islamic practice is compatible with the Republic; replacing French law with Sharia is not. French Muslims who are simply citizens practicing their "religious faith" “have no reason to worry” about a Le Pen election victory.
But can one be a practicing Muslim without demanding and practicing Sharia?
