#3 Now for fok's sake, please tell me why the TTP is being publicized.

(a) "To protect our jobs."
(b) "Wouldn't it be just & proper if some of these loud 'Islamophobes' got what's coming to them (because Jihadis are aware of our SOP)?"

#4 If the FBI's Counterterrorism Task Force can monitor people and events, and warn the Garland PD, why couldn't the regional Task Force responsible for Boston warn the Boston PD about the Tsarnaev's ?

#5 The left is arguing that if a woman wears a short skirt and gets raped, it is the woman's fault she got raped? The left has turned this whole thing around.

#6 I think what really bothers the Left about Pam and Garland is how starkly they contrast with every contact the Left has with violence.

mean seriously, just about anyone given a choice would choose to be on the Right. So the Left must eliminate the choice - even the knowledge that a choice exists.

#7 Even when the venue was in lockdown and hundreds of attendees were ushered down into the auditorium, the crowd was singing the Star Spangled Banner and G-d Bless America.

Agree with everything Ms. Geller says but who censored the word God? Was it her or Time magazine?

#8 G-d Bless America.

Orthodox Jews do not write out God as a show of respect. It appears some Christians have recently picked up the habit.

#9 TW, also some picked up that habit because of various filters and tracking software that picks up such subversive language......think $hit.

#10 This is about class. This is all about class.

This is about, specifically, the careerist, cowardly, go-along-to-get-along mores of the Upper Middle Class, the class of people whose parents were all college educated, and of course are college educated themselves; the class that dominates our thought-transmitting institutions (because non-college educated people are more of less shut out of this industry).

It is a class which is deathly afraid of social stigma, and lives in class-based fear being grouped with the wrong people, and which is more interested in Career, quite frankly, than in the actual tradecraft of that Career, which is clarity of thought and clarity of expression.

Thus, our institutions of thought propagation are dominated by the very people who can be easily cowed by the Social Justice Warriors, and who will, therefore, adjust their speech in order to not run afoul of the thoughtless -- and frequently lunatic -- thugs of the censorious left.
