Everyone has watched the media manipulate the Covington students harassed by the faux Vietnam vet beating his drum. Everyone watched the CNN footage of
the FBI storming Roger Stone’s home at 6am. The corruption of the FBI, the DOJ, & the
media is blatant. It's every day. But half the people I know don’t see it. Those who do
see it are swimming against the current. And it is difficult to imagine that things will end well. John Hawkins at PJ Media pondered the problem in a thoughtful
piece which concludes that
the basic response came down to,
“He’s a smiling white kid wearing a MAGA hat, therefore he deserves everything
he gets.”
It would be nice to make it into a
joke by calling it what it really is, a “hat crime,” but it’s not funny. If
you’re willing to falsely brand a kid as a racist, a Nazi, and a horrible
person because he stood there and smiled while some weirdo beat a drum in his
face, where do we go from there? . . . If Joe Biden wins the Democratic
nomination in 2020, is it acceptable to try to destroy the lives of random
liberal teenagers for wearing “I’m With Joe” shirts?
This is the world liberals are
dragging us into with their myopic vision, unquenchable hatred for people who
disagree with them, and their raging intolerance. Is this good for the country?
No way. Will it produce a better America? No. Is it entirely possible that this
sort of thinking could lead to increasing amounts of political violence?
Absolutely, because you can’t live in harmony with people who think there’s no
punishment too great for people who wear hats designed to support their
political opponents.
Then again, maybe those Covington students represent hope
for the next generations.
