100-Year-Old Grace Linn Speaks Out in FL Against Banning/Burning Books

WallStreetRebel.com is extremely concerned about the policies of Florida Governor Rick DeSantis, which include banning certain books, as well as his assertion that he is freeing up the state of Florida. It is reminiscent of Adolph Hitler's policies and those of other communist and fascist leaders throughout history.

Like her husband, Grace Linn, a Martin County, Florida resident, is an American hero. She understands what her husband died to protect and what my father, uncles, and father-in-law fought for in both the Pacific theater of war against the Imperial Japanese and in Africa and Europe against the fascist Italian and German Axis powers.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is a pathological liar and fascist who, while claiming he is guaranteeing greater freedom to the citizens of Florida, is using it as a sick sarcastic slogan like the banner that was above the gate at Auschwitz concentration camp, "Arbeit Macht Frei" which translates into English means "work makes freedom."

The Nazi movement did not begin with confiscating firearms, a right guaranteed by the second amendment in the United States. It started with verbal and written propaganda attacks on Jews, homosexuals, gypsies, communists, and other minorities and ended with 1.1 million people dying in the Auschwitz concentration camp alone.

DeSantis stands behind podiums, holding signs that claim his book ban is a hoax. DeSantis and other Trump fascists inflame my rage by lying about George Soros and using his name as a linguistic substitute for the so-called "Jewish conspiracy" that Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Party's chief propagandist, and other Nazi criminals used to murder 6 million Jews. It's a sick ruse that Grace Linn, 100, recognizes as a sick lie as she speaks out against his fear of knowledge.

DeSantis aspires to be the Republican nominee for President in 2024 and the leader of what has evolved into a white nationalist party. White nationalists want you to believe that liberals want to confiscate all 300 million guns in the United States when the truth is that all we want is responsible gun ownership and manufacturing, background checks, and the removal of weapons of war from store shelves. Grace Linn sits in a wheelchair at the breach to prevent our losing our rights to free speech and protect our rights to read even the vilest books written by human beings, so to protect our right to read the greatest books ever written even though they deal with painful subjects many would rather forget.

The Federalist Society, the arch-conservative legal organization that now controls the Supreme Court as a result of former President Trump, is skeptical of our democracy's survival. The process of removing our democracy begins with DeSantis and other far-right Republicans prohibiting and burning books.
