I attempt to keep politics from creeping into my blogs, but there are times when events or behavior is so duplicitous, so inconceivably vile and hypocritical that I find myself slack-jawed and unable to contain myself. Truly, I am disheartened and ashamed at so many of my fellow Americans during our recent election and inauguration of Donald J. Trump, our forty-fifth president of the United States.
The actions taken by many on the left were (and continue to be) disgusting and hate-filled. Funded by leftist anarchist billionaires and millionaires, we watched patriotic events turn violent. Many claimed the same from the right, but we later learned that instigators were paid, in many cases, to create a scene and perpetuate violence while others filmed right-wingers "being violent" at candidate rallies. The truth is, like it is so many times, hidden behind a veil of lies and deceit, and took significant investigation to bring to light those individuals who chose anarchy over democracy.
Why do we (and by "we," I mean others) condone violence (you know, things like setting limousines on fire, destroying private property, et al) from one side of the argument who hysterically proclaim their love of democracy? Why is it okay for musicians and other performers to discuss "blowing up the White House?" Can you imagine the fallout from the left if a high profile right winger made a comment like that during the Obama presidency?
On Trump's first day, threats of violence and other illegal acts ran rampant across the United States. All in response to a democratic republic's presidential election? I apologize if I don't quite understand the rancor. After all, we on the right put up with eight terrible years of Obama, and I can't recall a single protest or violent act carried out by a group, large or small.
You see, the left chooses to proclaim its actions as democratic, but fail to mention that during the most democratic event in the world, that is, the peaceful transfer of power during a presidential inauguration, individuals were actually calling for martial law and anarchy to prevent Trump from taking office. If you stand on that side of aisle, you are the problem--not just part of it.
Lastly, if you spend your time protesting and destroying other people's stuff, may I suggest a student loan or request for a student grant? It's time you actually gained some knowledge and applied to something a little more worthwhile than being an un-American tool riding on the coattails of everything our forefathers fought and died for.
