“There are three classes of people: those who see, those who see when they are shown, those who do not see.” – Leonardo Da Vinci
I wonder as well about those who are shown, but are too lazy or do not want to be inconvenienced or simply refuse to see even when the evidence is right before their very eyes.
Mo Brooks spoke up about what he believes is this very situation:

The list of quitters and of the corrupt is long indeed, and terribly disturbing, although not entirely surprising. The Remnant will be very small, and for reasons not dissimilar, the number of true Heroes in our world at present is also very small. Too many find it convenient — even easy — to be among the many, and are unwilling to make the sacrifices necessary to be among the few.
For those of us who do see… Lin Wood’s message speaks to us, especially that last line:

“For 43 years, I have pursued truth to achieve justice. I have loved & respected the rule of law & our institutions.
Since 11/3, I have learned TRUTH of the level of corruption & evil in our legal system & government officials.
Now I do not know whether to weep or throw up.”
Mr. Da Vinci’s comment did not have the word “and” in it so I’m assuming that was so it could be modernized at some point. IMO that point arrived a long time ago so here’s the update:
“There are four classes of people: those who see, those who see when they are shown, those who do not see, and those who refuse to see.”
I’ve spent the last two hours trying to figure out if the largest group of people are in the “those who do not see” or the “those who refuse to see group.” I’m guessing the “refuse to see” group is the largest.
St. Funogas… I believe you are right. Those who refuse to see are probably the largest in number. If there is good news, it is that there may yet be hope — that their eyes can be opened.
I agree they refuse to see. Public school indoctrination has destroyed the ability to think and created mindless leftist robots.
@Mike_Pence
Vice President Pence… We pray you are hearing our voices, and that God is resolving the need to stand firm and with President Trump, and with the Republic, in your heart and soul. We know God hears our voices, and we pray you are hearing His. The fate of the nation may come to rest in your hands in a matter of just a few days.

And then are those who believe that God will prevail and provide, solve the issues. God did provide, he gave us the tools, free will, (which is what gets us into constant hot water). God did provide us with the tools for our own well being, but it’s very much like leaning on the shovel, praying for a hole. We must use the tools He provided.
And yet here we are, led by the socialists into satan’s lair, with nary a peep. Crying for “somebody needs to do something.” Look in the mirror, that somebody is you, if you do not stand up against tyranny, don’t expect your neighbors to, they are looking to you for leadership. Who wants to go first? We are masters of our own destiny, God is our only guiding light, but we must believe in Him for it to shine.
It’s really quite simple, simply start standing up and saying, and practicing non-compliance..
Long Live Our Republic…
Well said, NS!
