I’ll be brief. I don’t believe I need to belabor this point too long. I have never experienced such verbal gymnastics, such squirming, such gyrations around an event as I have in the wake of the Minneapolis, MN assignation, by a “trans” individual of small children attending Mass. We hear about marginalization, people’s “joy,” etc. But the truth is hidden by linguistic tricks. Word salads, spin control, “consensus building.” Code words.
Yes, Jen Psaki is correct: “"Prayer is not freaking enough. Prayers does not end school shootings. prayers do not make parents feel safe… “ Correct Jen, If you are godless, prayers don’t mean a thing. But in the eternal reality, they count big time. And while the media squirms, we have a new term; “trantifa.” Can we make another pronoun out of that? How about we look at history: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams. Yes Jen, prayer and belief. There are multiple examples throughout our national history that reflect a higher power, God’s hand. Granted, this nation is not perfect and, anyone with a lick of sense must know that “utopia” is not an option.
Regarding the shooting this week, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey stated in an interview: "Anybody who is using this as an opportunity to villainize our trans community or any other community out there has lost their sense of common humanity. We should not be operating out of a place of hate for anyone…”
“Any other community”? I take offense at that. Define “community.” Gun owners are a community. Millions of Americans are members of that “community.” Think about what you are saying before you say it. Have you heard the spin on Monkey Pox (“M pox”)? Let’s not stigmatize or marginalize anyone here. But gun owners? Full attack mode.
That’s my issue with the liberal, woke, democrat point of view. Incomplete statements that tend to express things that are essentially true in a way that makes them lies.
As Forrest Gump said then his dead mike came back on: “That’s all I have to say about that.”
