The killing of five staffers at an Annapolis, Md., newspaper is an attack on all of us.

By us, we mean not just journalists — but all Americans. For the foundation of our country depends on a free press able to probe and report without fear of retribution.

The question is:

Are the LSM and Mad Max part of a civil society?

I’d suggest NOT!

That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I'm dumber, no in fact, everyone who reads it will be dumber.

Which is why the wise are slow to anger, and when their foes fall, try to use it as teachable moments of reason.

I love the general vision of where America ought to be that Donald Trump has. The problem is that faith in a traditional God is needed to make it go. He is wroth both at impurity and at lack of generosity.

More precisely it’s a warning about where we might go.

Not really. He attacked the office because he should have been locked up in an asylum years ago, but we can’t DO THAT anymore.

Was Charlie Hebdo an attack “on us all” SJM?

Didn’t see the SJM editorial board getting puffed up about that.

A total mish-mosh of psychological projection and narcissistic navel-gazing by the enemedia.

Instead of sitting around exploring the interior of their skulls, why isn’t everyone hiring security guards and/or getting licenses for weapons? I don’t get it!

And for everyone who has a “Hate Has No Home” here sign: that’s like putting up a “Gun Free Zone” on your front door, you dummies.

Journalists spring up like weeds. There will never be a shortage.

They don’t even bother to note how many journalists are being killed in their precious Meh-Hee-Co.

We need homes for love — not for “not-hate.”

No, they're not. They're an attack by a disgruntled loser on a crappy, second-rate propaganda rag that routinely spews lies in between used car ads.

Don't try to make your problem our problem.

I expect that out of inch-deep minds. The most devastating triumph of our modern left was to drag the right down to its level.
