No one is talking about the most disturbing aspect of the confrontational incident involving the Covington Catholic school boys. Those boys were not speaking. No one was trying to silence their voices or shout them down. They were merely standing there wearing MAGA hats. Not content with just silencing conservatives, the left is now actively trying to chase conservatives out of the public sphere and society at large. The Native American man, Nathan Phillips, who confronted the boys with his drum was trying to chase them away from the Lincoln Memorial. The person who edited the video to make it appear that the boys were the ones accosting Phillips wanted to justify what Phillips was doing. The media went along with it and condemned the boys.
This type of totalitarian censorship has been creeping into society more and more during the Trump administration. It is totalitarian because the First Amendment protects both the freedom of speech and the freedom of assembly. Someone merely shows up in a public place wearing a MAGA hat and they risk being attacked. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders showed up to eat dinner with her family at a restaurant and the owners kicked her out. Perhaps most frightening of all, Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s family didn’t even leave their home and they had masked protesters yelling outside and banging on their door, chanting, “We know where you sleep at night.” ….
This is a logical extension of the left’s tactics of resorting to silencing their ideological opponents because they can’t beat them in substantive debates. This is how Antifa arose. Those young, angry Millennials don’t have the brainpower to defeat conservative arguments, so they resort to violence.

The left runs on hate. This is not surprising.
You know what scares these commie b*tches? The Second Amendment.
“The Native American man” = the left-wing aging mentally-ill Indian activist.
They didn’t just want them to leave, they wanted them dead.
“to wear an improper expression on your face was itself a punishable offence. There was even a word for it in Newspeak: facecrime, it was called.”

I think before long they’re going to be more scared. We’re right on the brink.
It could get violent. Be prepared.
I am sad to say this. But the left had the opportunity to redeem themselves and they didn’t.
When the Marxists come for your guns, kill them.
From 42 years ago, “Network”:
“We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore.”
Liberals are pushing us to the brink. What do we do???
The Second Amendment is the only thing keep the radical left from going full nuclear on anyone that don’t agree and assimilate into their doctrine.
BTT
The Chinese will help the left with the internet for the next election
BTTT.
It’s our last stop.
If the Rats win, they will pack the Supreme Court and repeal the 2nd Amendment through them.
Then what?
Gee, d’ya think that they want us dead? (Paging Captain Obvious . . .)
“I think before long they’re going to be more scared. We’re right on the brink.”
I hope it does not come to that. It will be bad if they don’t back off.
Leftist governments have killed about 150 million of their own citizens who disagreed with communism in just the last 100 years. Of course they want us dead. I do not intend to go quietly.
Orwell
Wow. Great quote. I don't remember it from 1984, but we need to spread it.
Next the Left will be proposing camps and Gestapo to use against the Trump base, ya think?
