This Is Some Crazy Stuff

Apparently, attacking right-wing fascist bigots* on social media isn't enough any more. Now we must attack them in person. Not physically, of course. Well, not yet at least. And assuming that they don't feel threatened enough to escalate things. We're also limiting it to cabinet-level officials. For now.
In Scott Adams' podcast yesterday, he said he was now afraid to do public appearances. He didn't reference this lunatic, but instead referenced a different lunatic. There seems to be no shortage of progressive lunatics urging violence these days.

What really blew me away was that Scott, no Republican or conservative and generally a level-headed sort, said, "They're coming for you next." He suggested that as the Republicans' mid-term slogan to get out the vote.

* - This means you, whoever you are and whatever you believe. With as fast as the list of hate crimes punishable by screaming attacks is growing, the odds of you violating one of them is asymptotically approaching 100%.

Scary freaking quote:
DHS employees are encouraged to call 911 if they feel threatened and if local law enforcement doesn't respond, to call Federal Protective Service.

...and I can't really argue against having the number of a law enforcement group that WON'T have a risk of blowing you off.

Foxie, I saw that DHS notification, too. That's some crazy stuff. I think it's related to the Portland, OR mayor telling his police to stand down over the protests at Federal immigration facilities. If I worked there, the solution would be concealed carry or quit. The cops are being told to not protect the federal workers and the federal law enforcement people are probably some distance away.

This is madness.

I had managed not to hear about that...ugh.

All these tolerant peace-loving inclusive lefties are actually making me think about buying a gun for protection. I never dreamed, well feared, that would become a possibility.

Ohioan, I'm getting to the same place.
