Whether left or right, (and whether the discussion participants are left or right), the fact that the discussion (here and elsewhere) leaps to political motive and tribalism and “sides” reflects poorly on our society. And, I contend, in some ways and to some degree it contributes to the problem.
I think that comes down to how the right and left both view property at its core.
The right (the inheritors of classical liberalism) see property and property rights as absolutely sacrosanct. It’s almost religious how it’s viewed.
The left, meanwhile, being the modern inheritors of progressivism and socialism, see property and the entire idea of private property as a tool to oppress the masses.
Thus people of a conservative bent are much less likely to damage property in pursuit of a goal and see it as morally detestable. While a true leftist doesn’t view it the same way.
I’m more or less in the middle about it these days.
Plus…murder. Worshipping the murderer is also not to be allowed.
Yet we see nowdays, mainly on the Left, making a murderer into an idol.
You know that Go Fund me has hundreds of thousands in his account.
How much they sent the widow and orphaned kids?
Nothing.
Well…she is the mother.
What can you say…
Have you seen a movie Mildred Pierce?
That mother saved her spoiled daughter from her self-inflicted legal jams until she murdered someone.
Then she said she couldn’t …
I myself would say NO much sooner.
When you have a mother involved you just never know.
Maybe this mother up here…maybe she’d maintain same support for her son even if the Gov. Mansion burned all down and people witheen too.
But…the bottom line is that America has been a laughing stock for decades due to Democrats and their antics.
Being abused, taken advantage of by other countries again due to Democrats and their policies.
First time in history American President tries to fix that and look WHO is complaining…DEMOCRATS.
Balmer called discussion about his mental health issues a “rumor” and, when asked by the judge if he had kids, he replied: “A lot of children, ma’am,” but he declined to say how many.
After the judge ordered Balmer held without bail, he spoke with Mr. Whitener for several minutes. He declined to answers questions before he was driven away by a state trooper.
His lawyer must be frustrated the insanity defense is getting pummeled by his client. It’s his best move now.
