Michelle Malkin: Progressives and Hate Speech

Michelle Malkin » The progressive “climate of hate:” An illustrated primer, 2000-2010

Here is a visual reminder of how the "Progressives" have used violent images and hate speech over the last decade. Liberals who turn a blind eye to this are being hypocrites when they call for the right wing to tone down the violent rhetoric.

Do you know Michelle Malkin wrote a book that defended Interning Japanese americans in WWII it is called.

In Defense of Internment: The Case for “Racial Profiling” in World War II and the War on Terror.

She is a very bad source of Information, unless you think putting people in prison camps because of their race is a good thing. I would stay a way from her

Yeah, everywhere you go today, Liberals are showing up at political rallies armed with pistols and assault rifles. Unlike Conservatives, who may say wicked things, but keep their guns at home.

Why insist on attacking the source of information? The website I linked to is an archive of pictures and videos of violent hate speech by the left. It doesnt matter who archived it, what matters is where it came from originally.

Such as Sandra Bernhard's jokes about if Sarah Palin came to NY she would be "gang raped by her black brothers". When asked about it she defended it as not hate speech, it was "nuanced". Imagine if you saw images of your mother or father being killed in effigy on public forums, on t-shirts, every day. And the excuse is that it is free speech? How would you feel?

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
Troublemane, on a couple of other threads, I posted link after link and image after image of violent behavior and rhetoric from the left - and every bit of that information was completely ignored by liberals on the forum.

Honestly - I think that is pathetic.

As bad of a source of information as Malkin is, I'd like to remind you all that the world is SUPPOSED to be a hateful, malevolent place, especially in fields relating to politics.

Hatred will set you free.

I wouldn't call it anything so judgmental as "pathetic"......it seems normal. People generally excuse their own bad behavior.
Especially when lefties have so much invested in demonizing the right as being different, it's necessary to be willfully ignorant
of their own sins. Tis good to encourage their self assessment, since few of us are perfect.

Not really, I just deny that it's wrong when I do it, and use the fact that others think it's wrong to my advantage when my enemies do it :).
(Granted, I'm assuming you're talking about negative rhetoric, not actual violence. I've never advocated that someone die artificially :)).

Pathetic? I think it's pathetic no conservatives can cope with the fact it is conservatives, and not liberals, who are showing up at political rallies armed to the teeth with pistols and assault riffles.

What is the thing Liberals have done that is morally equivalent to the guy who set out with his guns to murder people at the Tide Foundation after listening to Glenn Beck? Please tell me. You who have such a fine moral sense that you think the two sides are equivalent.

Is that the best you're going to offer? I'm putting you back on ignore unless you start to take these things seriously.

I'll believe the Unabomber is "one of mine" the moment you are able to show me a prominent Liberal who, like the Unabomber, wants to destroy society and return the survivors to a hunting/gathering existence.

I don't know what the Unabomber's politics should be called, but I'd give a nickel to know just what were you thinking when you tried to pass him off as a Liberal?

You will do as you see fit.

He's a tree hugger on steroids.

But I've also personally observed that there is no more dangerous animal than an enraged liberal peace activist.
At their demonstrations, blood will flow. Their tolerance does not extend towards those who disagree.

The link mentions people like Maddonna to point towards liberal violence and yet I've seen clips of Beck talking of poising Pelosi.

I think there is a clear difference between explicit violence espoused from many right wing commentators then the left, but if you have any examples feel free to link them.

Sources are important. If I want a conservative opinion I will read George Wills and not watch Mr Beck just because I do not trust him. On the same vain I dont trust Keith Olbermann either he lost my respect because he is just plain mean spirited.

I do remember something about Malkin doctoring pictures. I am not sure the exact story, but it did happen.

Such as Sandra Bernhard's jokes about if Sarah Palin came to NY she would be "gang raped by her black brothers". When asked about it she defended it as not hate speech, it was "nuanced".

Sandra Bernhards is a celebrity/comedian not a political commentator. I do not follow Sandra Bernharts views. Also nobody wants Berhard to lead or country. Can't you see the difference between Bernhard & Palin?

Lets be frank in the 1970's there was a lot of popular movements that were crazy and wrong. The SLA was one of these groups. Today It is the right that seems to be the breading the nuts. Yes there are left wing nuts, still it is the right that is marching off to Washington holding Guns Talking about the blood of martyrs.

Your argument that the left is bad to. Is childish I would not except it from my son when he was in Kindergarten. When I caught him throwing sand in a childs face. He throw sand at me was not acceptable defense. It is wrong to throw sand I don't care who does it.

Phil, Jesus himself could point out that one political side has more violent (among other) tendencies than the other, and the majority of them still wouldn't accept it. Fact of the matter is, politics in this country is plagued by this "sports team" mentality and their fans are going to back them up or point fingers in the other direction to deflect any accountability, no matter what. Some people just refuse to accept certain realities, because if they do the "other team" wins.

I agree it is pathetic. Like I have said in the past some of the left went off the deep end in large numbers. Now it is the right who seems to be making a popular movement out of it.

It is Gandhi who has the philosophical method as a way out. Speak the truth of your beliefs without demonizing the others. There is need of both the right and the left. The left to make changes, the right to slow down the changes and make sure they make sense.
