Among those doing the looting and plundering are those who are anarchists. Among those slurring the police are those seeking chaos more than justice for George Floyd. There runs a strand among the protesters that would -- could -- shake our nation to its very foundations.
The cause of supporting George Floyd is about as honorable of a cause as there can be. But, that cause is being hijacked by those who revel in the destruction of America. They would deprive us of police protection. They would ransack and pillage until chaos is theirs.
They would bring our nation to its very knees.
Our nation has been praying against the threat of COVID-19. It should also appeal to God against the rising chaos threatening our nation in the wake of George Floyd's murder. Perhaps all the violence and looting will soon subside.
Still, when we speak of eternal vigilance, it should include moments such as this. Though the violence and chaos might or might not reach much further than what we are experiencing at current, a wary nation should be mindful. Even should peace quickly come, we should be mindful of the forces of chaos at play, for they will not have gone away. If we are but seeing their shadow now, we should realize they are sure to rise their specter again.
