The left gets it wrong. Again

I try not to jump on stories the foundations of which I am uncertain, but the left has no such constraints. So consumed with hate, the left-wing media seized upon the tragic shooting in Club Q in Colorado Springs and it could not resist blaming anyone and everyone on the right.

A survivor of the Pulse nightclub massacre has issued a powerful condemnation of the latest attack on his community and begged for LGBTQ people to be treated “with a basic level of decency and respect.”

Brandon Wolf, who was at the Orlando nightclub in June 2016 when a gunman killed 49 people, appeared on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” to discuss Saturday’s mass shooting at Club Q, a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs. The shooting killed five people and injured 19, and came amid an ongoing surge in Republican-driven legislation and hateful rhetoric targeting LGBTQ rights.

Another NBC hack chimed in

NBC reporter Ben Collins said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that “Republican politicians” and the “internet’s far-right machine” were targeting transgender people, which resulted in Saturday’s shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs, CO.
Collins said, “I do want to say, though, am I doing something wrong here? Here are some headlines that I wrote the last six months. ‘Fueled by internet’s far-right machine, anti-LGBTQ+ threats shut down trans rights and drag events.’ Remember, there was a drag event happening in Colorado. ‘Anti-trans stalkers at Kiwi Farms,’ which was an anti-trans website that stalks people, ‘are chasing one victim around the world. Their list of targets is growing.’ That was a couple of months ago. ‘Doctors under threat from far-right activist for providing trans care.’ ‘Boston Children’s Hospital faces bomb threat after right-wing harassment campaign.’ There were three of those bomb threats. ‘FBI charges Massachusetts woman with Boston Children’s Hospital bomb threats.’ They found one of the people. ‘At least 20 Republican politicians have claimed that schools are making accommodations for students who identify as cats.’ That was before the midterms.”

When it comes to prejudice against members of the LGTBQ+ community, there are just as many people on the left-wing side of politics, as there are on the right side. Except that, the right side is a lot more tolerant than the left side of politics. The right side may not like a lot of things that the LGTBQ+ community does or says or stands for, but, they tolerate them.

Same thing applies with race politics and issues. The right tolerates, while the left continues to be racist and sees racism in just about every issue.
