I have heard of Leftists already blaming the NRA, the teachings of the Christian Church, and Donald Trump for the shooting in Orlando. As far as I know, none of these comments were eliminated due to their political content.
On the other hand, these examples speak for themselves.
Pamela Geller reports the following:
The reason? This post:
The White House fails to mention Islam, jihad or the call for slaughter of gays in Islam. Instead, Obama is importing these savages by the thousands.
I am sure we will get warnings of “islamophobia” and “backlashophobia.” Hamas-CAIR has called a press conference, and the leader of the Islamic Society of Central Florida is already at a press conference in Orlando. Islamic supremacist groups use these monstrous acts of carnage and murder to proselytize for Islam and condemn those of us who oppose jihad slaughter and sharia. It is gruesome how these Muslim groups exploit the bloodshed.
She adds:
Facebook has enormous power and their fascist sharia-compliant policies on free speech in the wake of unfathomable slaughter. Every freedom lover should be outraged.
My comment:
Hmm… And to think, a Leftist heckler just this afternoon was filling my comments boxes with unreadable tripe, moonbarking at me that Leftists were caring, tolerant, honest, loving, and in all ways morally superior to the base ruck of mankind, but most especially me. And he told me how terrible it was that someone should take sides and demonize enemies, and then he proceeded to take sides and demonize me. Logic is not the strong suit of the Left.
He was unable to address any comments, which he could read, but addressed the secret thoughts of my inner heart, which he could not read.
The Left cannot fight, or even oppose, the Jihad because the Left do not want to live.
They may say they do, and perhaps in some way in what passes for thinking in the vague swamp of emotion, hysteria, self congratulation and mindless slogans of their empty skulls, they do, but in terms of the easily foreseen practical effects of their policies put in action, it does not matter what they say.
If a man says he wants to live while he is leaping off a building it is a delusion to heed his words and ignore the evidence of your eyes. Likewise when the man is being pushed off a rooftop by men the Left defends, supports, excuses, and calls you bad names for calling by name.
The evidence is that Jihadists matter to the Left, and gay lives to not.
