The Left Repeats "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" Tactic on the State of Indiana

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: I want to go to Indiana and discuss this supposedly controversial Indiana religious freedom law. It's made to order for the modern-day Drive-By Media. On Saturday and Sunday, ABC, CBS, NBC -- virtually every mainstream media organization -- condemned a new law in Indiana that would protect private businesses from government infringement on their religious freedom. What this means is that the Obama administration wants to do away -- and the media is assisting -- with the whole notion of free markets, the Constitution, and the freedom of religion clause.

The administration wants the power to mandate everything as much as they can. Now, the news organizations -- ABC, CBS, NBC, and all the others -- just had a collective cow over this. And rather than provide any kind of balance, rather than explain the history and the context and the true meaning and detail of the Indiana law, they predictably began to trash the legislation and Indianans as a bunch of bigots opening the door to discrimination against gays and lesbians.

Controversial' Indiana Religious Freedom Law

Even the CEO of Apple, Inc., Tim Cook took to the pages of the Washington Post and wrote an editorial condemning this kind of legislation -- not just in Indiana, but wherever it might be -- and making it out to be example of the worst instincts among us that we have here discriminating against people, and it's so un-American and so forth. Mr. Snerdley me asked me today, "When's the last time Tim Cook wrote an op-ed in the Shanghai Daily News ripping the ChiComs?"

I mean, the ChiComs impinge on everybody's freedom, particularly religious freedom in China. Of course it's a major, major Apple market. I happened to think about it when Snerdley asked me the question. I can't think of the time when an Apple executive... All I can think of when it comes to ChiComs is Google caving to the ChiComs on what kind of search results will not be seen and produced by Google when Chinese citizens are searching.

But what is fascinating about this, and it's becoming an even more prevalent reality. On the one hand, on any issue, we have the reality. We have facts, we have history, we have context, we have truth. On the other hand, we have the absence of all of that, the misrepresentation of the facts, misrepresentation of the truth, misrepresentation of the context. In addition to that, then the media is hyping it all with a bunch of emotional propaganda that is designed specifically to misinform people bunch of about what has happened, particularly this case, this law in Indiana.

It's like everybody's forgotten the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby ruling. It's like it never happened! Does anybody remember this, or the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993, which the Supreme Court upheld last year in the Hobby Lobby case? Everybody's acting like that's not the law of the land. The Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 was introduced by Chuck Schumer (Democrat-New York) on March 11, 1993; it was passed by a unanimous House of Representatives and a near unanimous Senate.

There were only three dissenting votes, and it was eagerly signed into law by none other than Slick Willie, a law that is practically identical to what happened in Indiana. If you want another similarity, it's like what happened to Arizona. Arizona passes some immigration law that pretty much paralleled, reflected -- maybe even you could say copied -- federal immigration law. The reason Arizona did it was that the federal government was not enforcing its law.

The borders were wide open.

[[The left is devolving into knuckle dragging cavemen and will soon be driveling as they run down the streets naked and screaming much as their ape men forefathers were.]]

you said it- they just keep screaming with hteir hands clasped over hteir ears like little children on a playground taunting the other side- their tactics show massive immaturity- yet somehow they are always winning- making the right cave into their idiotic chants

Had the right been smart, during the fuergeson protests ,the right would have play acted the part of the officer who was getting the crap beat out of him by the thug browne- and done so LOUDER than the left with their asinine FALSE ‘hands up don’t shoot’ crap which NEVER happened in the first place- but since the right caved in to the left’s terroristic tactics of burning looting and chanting- that FALSE chant will forever be the rallying cry of left

Truth and honesty and fairness are now dead
