How Unhinged Media Bias Cost Me My Job(NRA connection)

My column stood against the ill thought out comparison of the NRA to ISIS by George Kennedy, University of Missouri Columbia Journalism School professor emeritus, in his column entitled "The NRA is a Danger to Us All." While the article defended the NRA, it also called for introspection and a self-policing in an industry that is currently held in a monopoly of singular leftist ideology. Instead of making a clarification, the Post Dispatch yielded to whiny snowflakes who could not bear the thought of my opinion existing within the papers august pages.

Guess they showed her who the boss of her is. Glaring example of how to NOT get ahead in your career. Hope she finds work. Or wins a lawsuit.

If anybody thinks they are immune they are not. The Left will not stop unless we make them. If we don’t find a way to get out in the streets we will lose it all.

.....Why are media persons so uniformly against views that oppose liberal orthodoxy...

It’s a basic tenet of liberalism that liberal views and ideas are the only views and ideas.
Anyone who doesn’t agree must be silenced. When attempts to silence others doesn’t work, then they must be destroyed.
Thus, we get nasty letter writing, and protests. When that doesn’t work, it’s violent riots, violent protests, and boycotts of businesses, and pushes on employers to fire public figures who oppose them.

Would the Post Dispatch fire someone who was known to donate to Planned Parenthood? The Sierra Club? The Democratic Party? Wouldn’t membership in - or support of - those organizations jeopardize a reporter’s objectivity when dealing with issues like abortion, global warming, or presidential politics?

No truer words were ever spoken. The parasitic left wants to control everything. They only respond to force. They are so much like ISIS terrorists these days I can barely tell them apart unless I see them and even then that's no guarantee.

I'm not sure I will live to see it but one day this extremely divided country will have to make a decision about who lives where. Leftists will have their socialist areas or states and conservatives will have theirs (ours). I already know I can never trust a leftist even if they are a family member. Like a heroin addict; their leftist ideology (mental disease) trumps anything else.

So either a war of force or a war of politics is used to fight this war. We are already in the war of politics; just look at how the sick leftist pols are acting since they lost. It isn't even so much that President Trump won IMHO; it's they can't handle losing. They were so sure they had control of the country so now that their mentally ill minds can't handle the loss and never will. That's why we will have to live apart because they will never accept the winner unless it was one of theirs. NEVER.

It's also why leftists are as Un-American as ISIS and any other terrorist organization like the BLM, ACORN, SPLC, etc. etc.
