Thrin and sister Joan Short
There is something to be said for the 24 hour news cycle, in terms of exposure to stories which might otherwise be obscured or intentionally buried. In the case of two young sisters who were part of a “Pro-Life” demonstration at the University of California-Santa Barbara recently, it seems one associate professor at the school doesn’t think much of their 1st Amendment rights. As a matter of fact, Associate Professor Mireille Miller-Young was so incensed that these two citizens actually had a different point of view than that which she espouses, and/or that they were exercising their Constitutional right to voice those opinions, that she decided to steal their sign and allegedly berate and assault them.
These are the stories that fuel my passion for context and truth when it comes to the ideological arguments of our time. They make it so easy to frame the Liberal Progressive belief system as that which promotes free speech and expression, so long as it’s Liberal/Progressive free speech and expression. Everything else, and I do mean everything, is automatically labeled as hate speech and bigotry, thus making any legitimate debate almost impossible. This is the strategy to be sure, as legitimate debate is the means by which Liberal arguments die a quick and embarrassing death. Moreover, many of these cases involve outright abuse and even violence, as we’ve witnessed in places like Wisconsin, during Governor Scott Walkers attempts to empower tax-payers over the public-sector unions.
Make no mistake my fellow Americans, this is an evil bunch, who would strip you of your rights forthrightly, and in favor of their own revisionist and twisted version of the truth. Thankfully, there can be only one truth, and the frustration born of that recognition, will plague Leftist fools like Miller-Young relentlessly, thus forcing their own hatred and bigotry into the light, and onto many a cell phone camera…
