American History ..... The Palmer Raids

[new pig hunter]

For Veterans Day:

I just read a short blurb on The Palmer Raids. So this post will have 2 parts:
Part 1: an opinion piece I found yesterday.
followed by .....
Part 2: the history of the Palmer Raids.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part 1:

The highest percentage of constitutionally conservative Americans is found among our veterans, active duty military and their families. Uniformed service personnel are required by law to honor their oaths “to Support and Defend” our Constitution, but there is no such legal mandate for elected officials, too many of whom disregard their oaths their first day in office.

Rarely has the contrast between those who support Liberty with blood and life and those who want to destroy it been so striking. For four long years, the Left and its MSM propaganda machine assailed our Patriots in uniform, and the cost as measured by military morale has been heavy.

But just last week there was a new dawn for Patriots in uniform, as a Commander in Chief — one who honors their service and sacrifice — was elected.

If I might digress, antithetically, this week also marks the centennial of the rise of socialism/communism and what would become a reign of murderous terror over hundreds of millions of civilians. Yet, despite that historical record, there are still plenty of socialism deniers in the United States Congress. Untangling the many years of the most invasive socialist policies in our nation’s history will take more than one election cycle, but our course has been temporarily reset.

Part 2: Here is the longer story, with the obvious question: There is a precedent for Palmer Raids, therefore: does the United States need more Palmer Raids ??
