Although I left thirty years ago, I was raised in a small town in Arkansas. It was a time of family, outdoor adventure, friends, and peaceful coexistence. Fast forward to today however, and quite a different picture is being painted.

The state employed, obviously donut consuming police chief of Paragould, Arkansas, Todd Stoval, has literally gone berserk. He is placing the town of Paragould “under Martial Law for the supposed purpose of deterring crime.” He is planning on filling the streets of Paragould with SWAT teams carrying AR-15s, and giving those convict types the authority to stop everyone in town to harass them. The citizens will be forced at gunpoint to show their “papers,” and to explain why they are walking in their own town. As the criminal police chief stated last Thursday:
The marauders “are going to be in SWAT gear and have AR-15s around their neck,” grunted Stovall at a town hall meeting held last Thursday at the West View Baptist Church. “If you’re out walking, we’re going to stop you, ask why you’re out walking, check for your ID.”
“We’re going to do it to everybody,” Stovall explained, anticipating objections. “Criminals don’t like being talked to.”
Stovall has not lost his mind, he is simply taking advantage of a frightened and sheep like populace, and a current government system of force that is rocketing out of control. With the school shooting that recently occurred in Connecticut, one that appears to to have cover up written all over it, this entire country has come under fire from every sort of anti-gun nut, including the evil Obama administration.
What is happening in Paragould is no different than what happened in Nazi Germany or Communist Russia early on. Those residents in this town of 26,000 had better put a stop to this invasion by police in short order. I would never submit to this kind of behavior in my town, and the citizens of Paragould should not allow one single attempt to do so by this police chief.
It’s time for the people to replace fear with courage. It’s time stand up to the state gendarmes instead of cowering in their presence. It’s time to put a stop to all the state’s Gestapo tactics. It’s time to actionably defend one’s self and family from the tyrannical government!
