We have created a generation of deeply damaged young men.
On Sunday, South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham said that the blame for the assassination attempt on President Trump falls upon the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks. True, but I’d like to add to that indictment that our culture is also to blame.
What I know of the 20-year-old Crooks is what you know of him, and while it’s tempting to say that nothing we’ve heard can be trusted to be true, we can at least assemble a picture of who he was—and wasn’t.
Crooks did an evil thing, but we can point to a lot of societal forces that may have pushed him there. His short, at times troubled life didn’t provide the experience necessary to grow up. This condition plagues our society at present, particularly among young men

Crooks was a product of this leftist freak show, which permeates everything from the classrooms he attended to the movies he watched. This indoctrination intentionally destroys gender roles, faith, family, and (especially) masculinity and consistently blurs the line between right and wrong in an ever-increasing frenzy of top-to-bottom confusion and, more importantly, purposeful ignorance. In fact, Crooks was not only a product of this wickedness but perhaps may ultimately prove to be a poster child for it.

Thomas Crooks’ finger may have been on the trigger, but Nancy Pelosi pulled it when she tore up Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech on live national television. Joe Biden pulled it when he “put Trump in the bullseye” and repeatedly said he is an existential threat to America. Benny Thompson pulled it when he tried to have the former President’s Secret Service protection removed, amply demonstrating exactly what he and his cohort wanted to see—a dead Donald Trump.

The marxist left wants to burn down Western Civilization. Crooks wanted to help them.
Corrupt media and failed leftist public schools are to blame.
And normalizing sick behaviors.
What about the societal forces that are creating ghouls like kim cheatle and mayorkas? The kid was a pawn. As others have astutely pointed out, he was Oswald.
Spot on!
We don’t know his motives, but it is almost certain that he was indoctrinated by the leftist culture where he didn’t learn how to be a proper man of integrity, inner strength, courage, and bravery.
Never, ever, quote Linda Graham. He is vile.
Every single article mentions he’s a registered Republican
For all that the writer (or any of us) knows at this point, Crooks could have been "created" by MKULtra grooming rather than any vague, if malign, "societal forces."
Where is the articale coming from?
I thought all we know about the shooter was he was a “reg republican” and have to act blue?
A well written article with many good points.
The Democrat leaders, however, don’t want to burn down America.
There is no profit in that for them.
They sanction some rioting and looting, but that is only to generate fear among our citizens.
Fearful people are easy to lie to and manipulate.
The Democrat Party Crime Families (Bidens, Obama, Pelosi, Clintons, Schumer, Soros, etc…) want wealth, and lots of it.
Comments BUMP! A lot of domestic evil individuals in and out of government. Foreign evil individuals too.
Exactly. And then, demonizing people who oppose these wicked lifestyles and insinuate that it's okay to kill them. Then, when something happens like this, blaming conservative, God-fearing people for the violence BECAUSE they opposed the evil. In other words, let us do evil or we'll do more evil. The very mindset of Satan...
Pennsylvania has a closed primary system. There was a big push for activist democRATs to change their registration to Republican to cause chaos in the Republican primary elections. That could be why.
The entire education system is designed to only allow rich and the very smart to break into the upper 1% I come level. It is how liberals ensure an economic hedge for themselves. Everybody else spends 12 years learning almost nothing and are kept unqualified to attend post secondary institutions.
But they are not really losers, just not The Beautiful People that all are conditioned to accept as superiors.
Of course this is how the vain atheistic secular world is. Has been so since the time of the Ancient Greeks.
What active religious practice prevents is such secular brainwashing and destruction, as exemplified by this person.
Biblical religious practice coupled with a bit of reading and thinking keeps people from becoming monsters.
By the same token, the secular vain Washington/Hollywood/Marxist axis breeds this kind of person: infantile, embittered, clueless, planless, feral, idle, striking out at anyone the hipsters point out to him as the cause of his dissatisfaction.
It’s called the MSM, who’s constant lies about Trump inspired violence against a Republican softball game, Rand Paul and his family, and now President Trump.
These people are sick and evil. They all went to the same ivy league schools. They move in and out of obama/biden admins and the deep state, while pretending to be journalist. They conspire to twist the news through things like the “Journo-list” - (google it). They seek to be the gatekeepers of information by shutting down other voices. These people are absolutely sick and evil and they are liars because their father is the father of lies.
I think the Democrat Party Crime Families may want power even more than wealth.
Take the view off the air.
