Throw the Gangs in Jail: Having the courage to prosecute criminals under 2923.42 in Ohio

It’s always good to be proactive, and I am thrilled with the police work I have seen lately in my community.  There are many reasons for it, but driving around the last couple of days, I saw many patrol cars with their lights on doing good police work.  Just this week alone, Sheriff Jones has had press conferences on some of the results of that good police work, and I am thrilled to see the nature of those contents without getting into specifics for reasons that are well justified but cryptic because the law demands such respect.  I know it’s a tough job to go out there and collect much evidence for multiple crimes that bad people are committing, only to have weak prosecutions through it all out before ever presenting it to a grand jury because socially our society has gone soft on crime as it has lost connection with a biblical context.  Fear not, for a lot of good reasons.  We don’t need to turn to vigilantes of fantasy, busting the wrong people without the support of law enforcement as rogue agents of justice, bringing chaos to the matter without the respect of an orderly society.  All we have to do is enforce the laws on the books, and if we do that, we will have a much better society.  And I say all this because one of my favorite books I carry around with me everywhere I go these days, the 2024-1 Ohio Criminal Law Handbook, has all the goodness of a prosperous society if only we had the courage to utilize it to full effect.  And to not care about the temperament of the courts who define a business day as 9 am to 3 pm, barely Monday through Friday.  Load them up.  Fill up the jails.  And keep the bad guys off the streets aggressively.  Stop being so permissive and accommodating of criminals and their dumb feelings. 

I say all that because of the proactive need to get control of the criminal elements out there ahead of the next election.  As we saw in 2020 especially, there were lots of “gangs” who harassed Trump supporters and other members of MAGA and shut down cities with communist revolts, such as we saw in Seattle and Portland, where mobs of anarchists took over actual sections of towns and started their own criminal zones.  This behavior is mainstream, as we saw with the new vice presidential pick of the communist Kamala Harris in Governor Tim Walz, who openly and gleefully let his cities burn in Minnesota over race riots provoked by criminals operating illegally in the United States under several laws.  But nobody did anything about it because they feared being accused of violating the “free speech” of the criminals, leaving our society paralyzed by indecision.  Well, we have learned many lessons since then, and knowing that Democrats are going to do anything to win this upcoming 2024 election and the globalists behind them have trillions and trillions of dollars invested in the outcome, we have to recognize that crime in our communities is not organic but provoked for a political battleground.  It’s not something that just happens; it is fueled by political behavior and investment and must be punished wherever we observe it.  To eliminate many problems before they occur, I recommend thoroughly enforcing 2923.41 (42) regarding criminal gangs in Ohio.  Most states have similar laws on the books, but they are not implemented because the scope of compliance is too broad, and socially, law enforcement fears that the public won’t support them.  And prosecutors are undoubtedly weary of such ramifications.  But we have allowed criminal gangs of thugs and misfits of all kinds to disturb our peace, and if we want to have a good society, we will dust off this revised code and put it to good use.

Ohio Law, 2923.41 defines criminal gangs as (A)(3) the persons in the organization, association, or group individually or collectively engage in or have engaged in a pattern of criminal gang activity.  Which essentially means conspiring to break any law in that excellent, wonderful book I mentioned.  We have a state legislature that has filled that book with all kinds of great options to maintain a civil society of individual property protection from the hands of criminal conduct, and we should use it to full effect.  Throw the violators in jail and destroy them every legal way possible, but do not put up with their horrendous behavior.  By enforcement of this one law in Ohio, people like the George Soros types could be prosecuted for their involvement in funding illegal gang behavior, which extends well beyond the typical drug dealer and peddler of smut.  Those politically active who conspire to use force to protest with hints at violence outside a judge’s home to inspire them into a particular judgment could be prosecuted as a member of a gang, which is defined further as involving three or more members intent on such criminal inspirations.  Further, in 2923.42 under “participating in criminal gang” activity, it states in (A) No person who actively participates in a criminal gang, with knowledge that the criminal gang engages in or has engaged in a pattern of criminal gang activity, shall purposely promote further, or assist any criminal conduct as defined in division (C) of section 2923.41 of the Revised Code, or shall intentionally commit or engage in any act that constitutes criminal conduct, as defined in Division (C) of section 2923.41 of the Revised Code.  (B) Whoever violates this section is guilty of participating in a criminal gang, a felony of the second degree, which holds with it 2 to 8 years in prison.  Load those prisons up.

Many of the strategies that are essential parts of the Democrat playbook of harassment of civil society could be easily prosecuted under just 2023.41 (42) in Ohio.  Other states have similar definitions.  And the antagonizers who fund these gangs of all forms are betting that nobody will prosecute them, for lack of will, lack of jail space, and the lack of social support in the court system.  Many people are very wishy-washy these days regarding law and order.  But that isn’t because they are necessarily bad people. Instead, they have been inundated with so much bad social conduct that they have forgotten which way is up and down.  And even that is the result of various gang activities that have saturated society with criminal conduct so vast that people have grown numb to it.  But before we allow gangs of thugs such as Antifa to molest our streets in protest of Trump in the upcoming election to cause chaos and destruction, we should round them up and put them in jail.  And if we run out of prisons, let’s build more jails.  With the garbage we fund these days, don’t say we can’t afford more jails. Just in the amount of money lost to illegal immigration with bad Democrat policies, we could build more jails.  But first, we must be willing to fill them to the brim, and then some.  We must show a resolve to deal with criminal thugs in their gang associations at the root of their operations, which are often connected to political scandals and funded by hostile agents who must also be prosecuted at their root cause and done so ruthlessly, as is well deserved. The bad guys, criminal gangs of international communists, have taken over our system of law and order, and it’s time that we rip it away from them and bring justice to their doorsteps.  Ruthlessly!

No, Trump Will Not Be Going To Jail: People won’t put up with it

At this point, it’s pretty much a joke; anybody with half a brain sees what’s going on with the election of 2024. Jack Smith and the corrupt DOJ, the Democrat asset FBI, and the mechanisms Beltway politics have weaponized the law to keep Trump from being able to even run for president because they know what they did. They cheated in the 2020 election, Biden never had 81 million votes, and they hoped everyone would forget about it and move on by now. But the Republican Party did not return to a controlled asset of Democrats, it has stayed the party of Trump, and now there is a lot of panic among those who have been committing all these crimes using the power of government to do so. Now that they are desperate beyond anything that public relations firms can manage, they are showing just how bad they really are. We are dealing with a corrupt criminal government that is struggling to hold power, and they are using that acquired power to destroy their political opponents. And the hope is that Republicans will play along like they always do and get punched in the face and won’t punch back like Democrats and their radical communist advocates do. And those big government types are hoping that Trump will go to jail over this classified document situation, which isn’t going to happen. Trump isn’t going to be in trouble over anything for a lot of reasons. There is no possible path for putting Trump in jail. No power of a corrupt government that can do it. No, Trump will not be in handcuffs and be led to jail by the Biden administration or their minion, Jack Smith, and the DOJ. It simply can’t happen.

The first reason it won’t happen is that Trump was president, and unlike the classified documents cases of Pence, Hillary Clinton, and Joe Biden, none of them were ever president.  Trump was, and he had a right to classify or declassify anything he wanted to. Don’t listen to a word that goofy Bill Barr has to say on the matter; several problems with the Presidential Act presents major issues for the Biden case. First of all, notice how the Attorney Generals for Trump were both anti-Trump and were not activists in the way that Merrick Garland has been for Biden. Jeff Sessions talked tough but was far more interested in appeasing Democrats than in doing the work of the Trump administration. Then to show the Swamp creatures in the Beltway that Trump wasn’t going to put someone loyal to him in the Attorney General spot, he appointed Bill Barr to appease the RINOs, which obviously was a mistake because, like many of the bootlickers in the Trump administration, Bill Barr was working against Trump as much as the Democrats were, and he doesn’t see the law the way rationality expresses it. The obvious abuse of the law is there for all to see; with Republicans, they are supposed to be fair, but Democrats can do anything they want with their Departments of Justice. No, if they make a big deal about this records act, then there aren’t many Democrats who can live up to the case law, and suddenly the can of worms will be fully opened, which is a standard nobody can live with. Sure, Democrats and Rino Republicans like Barr are more than willing to go there for the short-term goal of stopping Trump. But in doing so, they’ll destroy themselves because they won’t be able to live up to the standard they will have created for themselves. 

Then there is the other issue that nobody wants to discuss. Who in their right mind thinks that roughly 30% of the population is going to allow such an obvious injustice of the law to go on without violence? For the people who believed that January 6th was the worst thing that ever happened in America, they need a history lesson. There is no instance in a free nation where an authority-driven government got away with such a blatant coup without violence checking the action. This China model that these globalists are using think that the same methods used in Asia will work in America. Not even close. Asians are a collective-based culture where people tend to follow orders from centralized authority, the way a village chief used to.

In America, there has been an assumption of freedom, and now that reality has shown people otherwise, many hotheads are ready to boil. They have remained peaceful because they assumed that elections were open and honest. But now it’s obvious that they have been rigged and that many of our federal politicians have sold us out and think they are going to get away with continuing to support that kind of system. And people are mad. Trump gives them a peaceful option to return our country to a representative nation. But if it’s not, which is clearly the assumption of the Biden White House, well then plenty of people are ready for a fight in the street. And there aren’t enough radical leftists to perform that task of fearful enforcement. We’re talking about a government that can’t even install a water fountain. How are they going to bring over 300 million people under their rule without manipulating them from the shadows? They have a slight problem; people used to give them the benefit of doubt. But not anymore. The assumption of good deeds and that we are all on the same team as Americans is no longer a motivating tagline for peace and justice. If this government tries to put Trump in jail to keep him from being elected, then people are going to lose their cool really fast. 

It’s actually pretty funny how stupid some of these globalists and big government types are. They obviously don’t understand how regular people think. There was no way to pull off this tyrannical, Chinese-style coup without having complete control of the media and of guns. And this government has done neither, nor will they ever. They have shown their intentions to do so and to copy the Chinese in every way. But America is not China. People in America are a lot more hot-tempered, and the only thing that has maintained the balance is the assumption that people could pick their own representatives in government. On January 6th, 2021, a very small percentage of the population became angry when they felt their government slipping away from them, so they protested at the Capitol Building. But that was nothing, and I said so after the event. I heard what the political left was saying about it and had to shake my head. What did they think would happen if people really got upset and Trump wasn’t even on a ticket to vote for? Or that their vote didn’t matter at all. That’s where a lot of people are now, and before they just put up and shut up, a large percentage of the population will look for other options. And it wouldn’t be their fault.

America’s founding documents clearly establish that tyrannical governments must be dismantled from time to time, and this is one of those times. Trump is the peaceful means to do so. Throwing him in jail will only unleash a level of anger that has never been seen domestically in America. Other places in the world, perhaps. But radical communists are not the only ones who can play hardball. And before people in America become mind numb compliant, there will be expressions of anger, to say the least, toward these perpetrators of corruption, in a method that history will certainly take note of. When people can no longer fly their Trump flags to protest a corrupt government, what does anybody think will be the next thing? It won’t be rainbows and smiley faces, that’s for sure.
