Last week, an Alabama police detective named Tanisha Pughsley was murdered. It isn’t just cops like Rivera and Mora, Arroyo, and Pughsley being shot – crime and particularly homicides have rocketed up. Why? Because criminals no longer fear that they will be prosecuted. Thieves now walk into stores, rob them, then walk out. Criminals like the man who killed Officers Mora and Rivera have been told that cops are the enemy – that cops are to be treated, not with respect, but with derision. Cops are to be resisted. You can lay some blame at the feet of high-profile personalities like LeBron James, Colin Kaepernick, Al Sharpton, and Ben Crump who have created a myth — one that people have bought into.
LeBron James was quick with his fingers to tweet when a cop did his job and to call him out for “accountability” even when that cop saved a black life. When cops are murdered by cop-hating men? Silence. James has not tweeted about cops being murdered. It’s below his outrage line. Not a word from LeBron James on Officer Pughsley being murdered. She was a Black woman, but she wore blue.
The content advisory is on the wrong people — not the people who need to be questioned even more.
But the funny thing about those “content advisories.” When they originally started putting that stuff on music, it made people more interested in looking at it. If the powers that be don’t want you to see it, it tends to make you want to see it all the more. The controversy has made even more people look at Joe Rogan, then wonder what the heck the controversy is and doubt the media even more. So basically the left shot themselves in the foot with this effort and just made their effort to control the narrative more obvious.

Joe Rogan is what he is. We in the media might want to spend more time thinking about why so many people trust him instead of us.

The American left’s sickening neo-racism as demonstrated in Biden’s use of race and sex to pick people for government leadership posts is completely anti-American. Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. believed and said they were working to make good on our nation’s founding affirmation of the great and universal truth that “all men are created equal.” Now our nation’s top leaders instead work to communicate the disgusting idea that “some men are created more equal than others” based on performance-indifferent personal characteristics people are born with and cannot change.
It’s shameful to see our president declare self righteously that he bestows government authority based on people’s skin color and sex. Joe Biden is a complete embarrassment and making major steps backward for our nation.
Our nation has worked very hard to get away from this poison. People died, were beaten by police, lost jobs, and made other huge personal sacrifices to bring about a United States in which “they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by their character.” Is this what we’re going to do with what these Americans sacrificed to achieve?
What a slap in the face, by the way, to Breyer. Nothing says, “Thanks for your service!” like a president effectively deciding you’re unfit to fill the very post you just vacated because he believes it’s politically convenient to discriminate against the skin hue and gonads you were born with. But that’s what the left does. In two years, Breyer will have his namesakes and statues ripped down, just like Lincoln. That’s what they call progress. //
I call this disgustingly racist and sexist. It is not progress, it is retrogression. Americans should not tolerate social Jim Crow dynamics like these any more than we tolerated Jim Crow laws in the second half of the 20th century. I don’t want to go through another round of mass civil unrest to re-establish that American ideal, either. Neither should anyone else, but that’s what this kind of sex- and race-baiting will lead to if left unchecked.
