In a speech delivered on 15 November 1867, Fredrick Douglass most famously  said:

 “A man’s rights rest in three boxes: The ballot box, jury box and the cartridge box. Let no man be kept from the ballot box because of his color. Let no woman be kept from the ballot box because of her sex”.

I would add the soap box to this most essential list of boxes where man’s rights rest.  All four of these have been under direct and relentless assault by the Democrats, who are the political left here in the United States, for the past several decades.  This assault has intensified over the past several of years to the point that these four most essential boxes have been almost entirely stripped away from those of us on the political right. 

The assault on the ballot box seemed complete with the theft of the Presidential election from Trump in 2020.  Just this week the Democrats ratcheted this up to a level I never dreamed possible with the federal indictment of President Trump on extremely phony classified document charges,  This is a tremendously transparent effort to keep President Trump off of the 2024 Republican ballot.

Phony charges issued by the Deep State is a direct assault on the Jury Box.  This box also has been under assault by the political left for a couple of decades,  George Soros led a successful campaign to make sure State Attorneys General were populated almost exclusively by hardcore leftists   The same holds true of district attorneys,

Thanks to political correctness and the war on disinformation, the soap box has been a favorite target of the political left for decades.  The soap box has not been completely destroyed.  This is thanks to the tireless work of free speech warriors.

The cartridge box is another box that has been under constant assault by the left.  Thanks to the Second Amendment and the constant work of patriots, control of this box still remains firmly in hands of those of us on the Right, This is the most important of all three boxes because it protects the other three.

With the near total victory of the left when it comes to the ballot box, jury box, and soap box, I am increasingly worried that those of on the political right will one day soon be left with only the cartridge box.  This week’s indictment of President Trump is a dangerous step along that path.
