Have you noticed how in the wake of an attack by radical Islamists, the first response of Democrats is to remind Americans not to round up the boys, jump in a pick-up truck, and search the streets for a Muslim to beat up? Even before they condemn the attack or the perverted ideology behind it, they accuse innocent people of being just on the cusp of bigotry and violence toward anyone who has anything in common with the perpetrator. In essence, the political left thinks you live your life just this side of being a horrible person.
Its a major factor, I suspect, in why theyve lost so many elected positions throughout the country. Who would vote for someone from a party which, in the immediate aftermath of a horrible event, lectures everyone else about how they must not give in to what they think is the siren call of retribution? What must they think of their fellow Americans?
Without fail, Democrats find themselves scratching their heads or butts (often times both because theyre so frequently merged), wondering about motive for an attack when the monster responsible unambiguously told the world what it was.
After the Orlando terrorist attack, the motive was unclear to the Obama administration for weeks. They first tried to blame guns, then homophobia. All the while delaying the release of even a transcript of the multiple calls from the monster stating in plain language that jihad was why he murdered 49 innocent people.
For years the Fort Hood attack was classified as workplace violence, like someone had just snapped after filing one too many TPS reports.
The pattern repeats after each attack.
With the Ohio State attack this idiots dance didnt last as long only because the sub-human who did it wrote a post on his Facebook page that had been discovered and disseminated before plausible deniability and the delay game could begin. But they tried, oh they tried. For a day it was, Gee, we just dont know why he did it, until it was so obvious they risked looking like flat-Earthers if they continued to wonder.
But, as always happens, the pre-recriminations started before the blood soaked fully into the ground.
After the San Bernardino attack last December, CBS News ran the headline, Muslims in San Bernardino fear backlash after attack.
After the Orlando attack, PBS ran the headline, Muslim-Americans face backlash after Orlando mass shooting. Oddly, as is usually the case, the only reference in the piece to that backlash is the interviewee saying they fear that you know there might be a backlash. Not that there was, but they feared there might be. You wouldnt know that fact from the headline, which said they were facing one.
You can play this game with every attack in the US in the last decade, these are just one example each from two attacks. A search on the key words turns up dozens of mainstream media outlets parroting the same concept. The left is a hive-mind with no honey to show for it.
The story repeats for the Ohio State attack.
The left-wing activist site Think Progress, which neither wants readers to think nor make any progress toward addressing the problem of Islamic terrorism, ran a piece the day after the attack entitled, OSU attack and Trump rhetoric leave Somali-American community vulnerable to hate. Correct me if Im wrong, but isnt everyone vulnerable to hate? Someone is probably hating this right now, and me for writing it.
Its meaningless; its progressive.
Not to be outdone, the Assistant Director of Residence Life at Ohio State posted to her Facebook page her sympathy for the terrorist, demanding others do so as well. Think of the pain he must have been in to feel that his actions were the only solution. She added the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter, because why not?
When you believe the liberal narrative, you believe the liberal narrative.
The people responsible for these and all other attacks are the attackers themselves and those spreading the hateful ideology those perpetrators adhered to.
Democrats would rather point a finger at you. Unable to find satisfying examples of their fellow Americans acting the way they believe they would, theyre left to preemptively warn against them as if theyre routine. They arent.
Each terrorist attack offers a glimpse into how leftists view the American people, and more importantly themselves. Theyre better, more refined than everyone else. Theyre smart, were rubes. We need them to keep us in check; to temper our tempers. In short, they view everyone else as children.
These attacks are not the fault of the perpetrators or radical Islam, we are to blame.
The Obama years have witnessed nearly every American labeled a racist for the simple act of disagreeing with one or more of the policy prescriptions of our black president. Having rejected our opportunity to be labeled sexist for the next four years, liberal progressives proudly retain the phobe-card. And they will play it.
To Democrats, youre an Islamophobe. No need to explain why, you just are. Its science! And science doesnt lie, but liars sure do science. Whatever the case, whatever the event, its all your fault.
Cant imagine why they lost…
Ah, the dims say things like that in the hope that the alligator will eat them last.
Because always, always, the intended audience of the lectures is “evil whites”, and any other group, no matter how evil many of its own members, must remain in the position of victims of whites.
Yeah, I did. And I saw it just in the nick a time, too. Ya see, me and the fellas down to the feed store, we already had us ar' shootin' irons all loaded up and ar' trucks was warmed up and ready ta' go! It's a good thing them fine folks in the media tolt us how we is s'pposed to act all-civilized and such or there ain't no tellin' what a kinda mischief we mighta got up to...
Things that make you go, hmmmmm
The inconsistency of leftist thinking:
Think of the pain he [the terrorist] must have been in to feel that his actions were the only solution.
And yet when “the boys, jump in a pick-up truck, and search the streets for a Muslim to beat up”
- shouldn’t we think of their pain as well?
Don’t you dare judge Muslims by the common acts of muslim influenced terror. But by all means judge every republican by a stupid picture showing a klansman holding a Trump sign.
