More than likely, you are right and it is understandable considering what Nice just went through. Political correctness got us to this point, so the reaction shouldn’t be unexpected. Still, it bothers me.
It should. I don’t like it either.
When I look at what’s happening across Europe, I realize this woman’s pain is nothing.
She wasn’t blown to bits
She wasn’t raped
Her family members weren’t dismembered
She’s not a child that has to wear a temporary “NO” tatoo at the public pool, meaning don’t rape me
Her family vehicle wasn’t incinerated in front of her home
She didn’t have her throat slit in public
She didn’t have any of the other things happen to her, that her fellow travelers have been perpetrating across Europe.
So I’m having a hard time working up one tear for her.
And honestly, I wish it weren’t like this.
The Israelis, various U.S. governments, many politicians, many business people, and others have urged the Arab world to join us in the 21st Century. Instead they refuse and remain in the 6th century.
That’s not your fault.
It’s not mine.
It is theirs.
