Note: According to Neil Postman, our society has become saturated with information, leading to a state of meaningless abundance where we are unable to discern what is truly significant or irrelevant, resulting in a lack of understanding about what matters most. This glut of information can ultimately lead to a disorientation and disconnection from the world around us, causing us to lose touch with meaningful experiences and relationships.

Alternative Media Insights
Note: As we venture into the realm of alternative media reporting, it is essential to acknowledge that not all sources are created equal. While some outlets offer crucial counter-narratives and insights, others pose a significant risk of misinformation, perpetuating controlled opposition or serving as wolves in sheep's clothing, intent on misleading their audience with agendas designed to confuse rather than inform.

When the bodies of our hostages were received today, the words "Do not keep silent, O God!" were read. Do not be still, O God! Those who hate you have lifted up their heads. They consulted against Your sheltered ones. "Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more," they have said. They formed a confederacy against You, for they consulted together with one consent. Selah deal with them as with Midian, Sisera, and Jabin, who perished at En Dor, who became as refuse on the earth. "Let us take for ourselves The pastures of God for a possession," they said....

Is she protected? Is immunity qualified? If the violated right was clearly established at the time of the incident, the doctrine protects government officials from being held personally liable. Any reasonable official would have known that officials were violating the law if their actions were so unreasonable. I don't think it's reasonable to leave NC residents out in the cold with no FEMA-supplied shelter and block citizens from delivering aid. What do you say?
