Hate isn’t the way make Britain – or America – great again
Sacramento Bee ^ | JUNE 23, 2016

Posted on 06/25/2016 7:10:51 AM PDT by artichokegrower

Hours after United Kingdom did the unthinkable, voting to leave the European Union in a wave of populist vitriol unfairly directed at immigrants, Vice President Joe Biden took a moment during his visit to Ireland to say what so many Americans were surely thinking.

“All this,” he said of globalization, terrorism and mass migration, “provides fertile terrain for reactionary politicians and demagogues peddling xenophobia, nationalism and isolationism. We see it in Europe. We see it in other parts of the world and we see it in my home country, where some politicians find it convenient to scapegoat immigrants instead of welcoming them.

It's all Trump's fault. He got blamed for Orlando and now for Britain leaving the EU. Busy week.

A desire to break out of suffocating govt control and mandated cultural inclusion is not hate.

Let us hope that this is the beginning of the end of the lie of multiculturalism.

Operational word is “Freedom.” I want my freedom from the likes of the Sacbee, they honestly IMO are not morally fit to rule me much less the entire world as they think.

Wanting to be free and master of your own sovereign state isn’t “hate.” Hate is trying to shame sovereignty proponents that what they want is hate.

What’s unfair about it?

If you’re here and you’re here illegally, we don’t want you here...get out.

If you belong to a belief system that advocates death towards those who don’t believe as you, we don’t want you here...get out.

If you are a politician and your own greed and desire for power overrides the reason you are there in the first place...to do the will of the people...we don’t want you in office...get out.

If you call yourself an American yet do not believe that we are the greatest nation on Earth and are not willing to defend this country against ‘all enemies, both foreign and domestic’...we don’t want you here....get out.

I think that about sums it up.

No, a wave of populist righteousness directed at billionaire bureaucrats.

Hate is not cow-towing to the liberal bosses at Sacbee and the Left.

Its shrugging them off. Good riddance to leftist-globalist trash.

Britain and the U.S. wanting their sovereignty back is “hate”? Must have been written by some snowflake with dreams of global communism with perpetual freeloading with no reason to work.

Isn’t it something how the real haters are the ones who constantly accuse other people of hate.

*************

Nor is the basic instinct of self preservation.

Liberals are quick to use pejoratives whenever anyone disagrees with them.

The Sacto Bee is owned by McClatchy a far left news operation. It has also been accused of importing workers and laying off higher paid Americans who are then paid to train their replacements.

Yep.
Some folks always blame the government for their woes. Some blame other cultures.
It's ALWAYS someone else's fault, innit? It's NEVER the fault of the one in the mirror.

Trump is inclusive because he knows what works in our society. I hope he gets his chance to go to work.
Of course, he needs a GOP Congress. Congress is the source of the money and law making abilities. Hard to blame any ONE person for all our ills. It's a collaborative effort.

Americans voted in Obama TWICE, with a useless Congress, so what the HECK did we expect?

The comments, on the other hand, are spot on. Im surprised any liberal periodical allows them anymore. What to know what citizens are really feeling? Just read the comments of an online periodical..
