New England Witch Hunts Revisited
Canada Free Press ^ | 07/14/15 | Ray DiLorenzo

Mob mentality and hysteria has no place in society and is dangerous. It has gone too far. Let it end now!

It seems we have entered a new version of the 17th century witch hunts in New England. The country now finds it acceptable to persecute people for their beliefs, religion and political persuasion as well as looking in every corner for something that offends.

In a country gone mad, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are racist. Gender restrictions in bathrooms are sexist. Santa Claus saying “ho, ho, ho” is offensive to prostitutes. ‘Manhole’ is now ‘maintenance hole.’ In Seattle, Easter eggs are now ‘spring spheres’ in order to not offend anyone who doesn’t celebrate Easter. A student at Sonoma State University was told to take off her cross because someone could be offended (I didn’t know vampires were admitted to the State University system). Profiling in airport security areas is racist, so every grandma and grandpa is almost strip searched. The Obama administration has banned all government agencies’ training materials from linking Islam with terrorism. An entire high school track team was disqualified because one of the students made a gesture thanking God after crossing the finish line. HTML5 video is not supported!

The United States Supreme Court has recently stuck their finger out as well legalizing what millions of Americans consider perverse and contrary to God’s law. A Christian husband and wife in Oregon has been fined $135,000 for refusing to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple. At the same time, I see no lawsuits against Muslim bakeries. The Supreme Court has proved once again they are not always the wisest. In 1857, the Court in Dred Scott vs. Sanford, declared that blacks could not be American citizens. In 1896, the SCOTUS declared, in Plessy vs. Ferguson, that segregation was legal.

That would not have happened had the student shouted, Allahu akbar!

Yup.

It's for the same reason that Animal-Rights Kooks target little old ladies in fur coats, instead of large hairy bikers in leather jackets.

The Wiccan Community in Salem. (And there are a lot of them) are offended by the Witch silhouette on Salem police cars. It's like the Confederate Flag to them and they would like all vestiges of the dark period of the Wiccan Genocide eradicated. So what if it puts the town out of business.

Oh and if you think the modern witches of Salem are drop dead beautiful blondes like Elizabeth Montgomery you’d be wrong. From my experience......only HALF of them are!

Lately I’ve been feeling that way — the left is having a mass breakdown. Confronted by the real world, & the failure of their ideas, they are desperately trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
