PROFILING AND GROUPISM: THE HYPOCRISY OF THE LEFT

Instead of subjecting everyone to a physical search, the TSA should be profiling and subjecting likely terrorists to thorough physical and electronic searches.

But that's not PC. And Obama and the Left are nothing if they're not PC.

Leftists would rather we waste time and money and treat everyone as if we were alike, than sensibly and rationally target a single group.

Which is ironic and hypocritical in a big way, for leftists are otherwise always groupists who think people should get special treatment based on their membership in certain groups. Blacks, LGBT, aged, immigrant, Hispanic - these groupings are all acceptable and useful to Leftists when it comes to affirmative action and doling out welfare.

But if you rationally want to apply security measures to a group which is much more likely to commit terror, then the Left - and the MSM they dominate will accuse you of being a racist or a bigot.

THIS IS INCREDIBLY HYPOCRITICAL OF THE LEFT.

Why do they favor treating people as part of a group sometimes but not other times?

It's simple: they favor groupings only when they hurt the West or the USA or people they see as "the ruling class".

The Left LOVES making and using groupings only when they come down on the anti-American side: if groupism can hurt the USA or the west or Judeo-Christian civilization, then they are for it.

If it helps our civilization - or our nation or our allies, then they're against it.

This animosity to the West and the USA as the leader of the Free World is a foundational principle of the Left. And this foundational animosity to the west makes them a lot like the jihadists.

It's why the Left and jihadists have an affinity, why Chavez likes Ahmadinejad and why ANSWER likes the ISA and the PLO as much as they like North Korea.

This is why they run interference for the jihadists. This is why Obama and Holder announced they were going to give KSM a civilian rial in NYC - after he had pleaded guilty in military tribunal. This is why they leak and leak and leak sensitive national security data over and over again. This is why they want to close GITMO and set deadlines for war. AND SO ON...

And this is why I have long argued that if we want to defeat the jihadist enemy, then we have to defeat the Left.

ASIDE: Leftists and jihadists share another foundational principle: STATISM.

WHY!? Because both ideologies are all about limiting inidividual freedom and liberty and telling individuals how to live. YOU NEED A STRONG STATE TO ACCOMPLISH THAT. And because both are utopianist ideologies, they feel that having a strng state which takes away our rights - and even commits genocide - is worth it. Muhamed, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol, Pot - they all justified their genocidal anti-libertarian exploits by arguing that it was necessary to bring about UTOPIA.

BOTTOM-LINE: We must defeat utopianism in all its forms.

LET US LIVE OUR OWN LIVES.

LET US PURSUE OUR OWN HAPPINESS AS WE SEE FIT.

DON'T TREAD ON ME!
