When the Left thinks it's Right – Renee Nicole Good

Every woe-laden left-winger from Minneapolis to the Florida Everglades is now aware of the sad death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother who thought it seemed like a good idea to aim her multi-ton vehicle at an ICE officer. Her mother, Donna Ganger, told the Minneapolis Tribune that Renee was a good person who had been taking care of people all her life.

Nicole graduated in 2020 from Old Dominion University in Virginia with a literary degree. At that time, she was married to her former husband, Tim Macklin.

GoFundMe has raised over a million dollars for the grieving partner, although the original intention was to raise $50,000, and no more, according to the Minneapolis Tribune.

Strangers are down on the streets mourning the death of Good, and everyone who knew her wants to say she was just a sweet ray of sunshine.

ICE has been been working to remove criminals and gang members who've murdered, raped, assaulted, or extorted funds from American citizens. But for those who've just crossed our borders looking to create a new life, they also, just by crossing, have committed a crime.

In the U.S., under federal law (8 U.S.C. § 1325), improper entry (e.g., crossing without inspection) is typically a misdemeanor for first offenses, punishable by up to 6 months in prison and fines, escalating to a felony for repeats or aggravating factors. This aligns with international norms.

It is easy to see that Good suspended common sense, and a careful perusal of the video shows that she had a foolish, childish attitude about stopping the ICE agents, like it was fun in the afternoon to get in the way of the cops all while giggling and clearly snickering like she was chasing a bunny rabbit across the lawn. This was unwise, dangerous, and misdirected behavior.

On the next level, she was defying the laws of Minnesota and of the federal government. More than defying the laws, she raised her opinion of the law above the law itself. That is a form of the most basic kind of anarchy.

Now, the only other defiance that she showed was Biblical itself.

Perhaps she didn't regard the Bible, and that's her choice. But the Bible clearly says we are to submit to the powers that be if they are righteous. That is, if they are not anti-Christ, if they are not anti-people, we are to submit to the laws of the land and to the people enforcing those laws. Now, asking illegal aliens to leave back the same way they came in is hardly anti-Christ.

So what exactly does the Bible say?

“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour” (Romans 13:1-7 KJV).

Good was not in the habit of regarding the Bible, as is clear from her ignoring this passage:

“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.” (Romans 1:26-27)

She was unafraid to use the loose morals drawn from the pop-culture notions of today to declare herself another woman’s wife.

According to the preceding verse, no woman in the world can ever become another woman's wife. It is the modern pipe-dream of an apostate nation. It can and is often disregarded just as dogmatically as it is obeyed by the faithful.

This very general perusal of Good's life is not meant to condemn her. That judgment is not up to me or any other American. But it is a way of saying that not only was she in error, but the entire nation is in error. The entire movement to thwart the work of ICE is anti-Christ. It is wrong.

The entire left is riding high on this protest movement. Yet it started in a place that's so low that it negates, disqualifies, and erases any good that could come of it.

If millions rise up to protest around the nation, it does nothing to change the meaning of the following command of the scriptures.

“Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment.” (Ex 23:2)
