Segment Topic:
- An Open Letter to the American Left:
- Opinion piece by Scott Mackay in the American Spectator:
- You’re looking at these things mostly from the perspective of what many of you call “social justice.” For example, you’re telling us that Decarlos Brown is a young man poorly served by our educational and criminal justice systems, and what he did to Iryna Zarutska was certainly unfortunate and terrible, but it’s an inevitable byproduct of 400 years of racism and neglect for poor and underserved Americans, particularly of color
- In Minneapolis, you’re telling us the church murders are what we get for allowing such ubiquitous gun ownership.
- And you’ve used that argument in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination, too, going so far in some cases to snicker at the “irony” of an old Kirk quote saying that while gun murders are a lamentable price to pay for the Second Amendment, the preservation of our God-given freedom of self-defense is worth it.
- Not to mention, there has been the nonstop character assassination heaped upon Kirk, even in messages purporting to bemoan his death.
- I’ll not beat around the bush here. Your perspective on these events is pretty much on brand with your perspective of everything else going on in the country.
- You haven’t stopped calling us fascists, and you can’t unreservedly object to the murder of a guy you’ve been demonizing as a fascist. We’re really not so unreasonable in believing you want us just as dead as Charlie.
