Conservatives often say that liberals and leftists have no principles, but that’s not true. The prevailing liberal orientation to the world, at least in the U.S., could be called “sympathy for the devil.”
It seems like all of a sudden, the tolerant, loving, compassionate, empathetic left has decided to celebrate murderers right out in the open. Sure, many on the right could argue that the left has always approved of force and violence, but in the past those who did at least felt some social pressure to hide their appetites. Not anymore. Violence-loving lefties will tell you right out on social media that they wished the 2024 would-be assassins had succeeded in killing Donald Trump. They also like to engage in what they accuse conservatives of doing: “victim blaming.” Check out this poll—38 percent of voters said Trump himself was to blame for attempts on his life. Maybe it was that tight dress he was wearing.
Lefties are equally unashamed to cheer on the rash of violent attacks on Tesla dealerships. The electric car company, owned by billionaire and Trump advisor Elon Musk, has endured dozens of incidents of vandalism and firebombings in the past few months. The arrest of a Colorado man (who wears blue lipstick) for an arson attack on a Tesla dealership in New Mexico, and vandalism at the state’s Republican party headquarters, is only the latest in a string of reports of lefties gone feral.
It is no surprise, then, to see the outpouring of financial support for confessed killer Anthony Karmelo. The black teen has been charged with murder for plunging a knife into the heart of 17-year-old white high schooler Austin Metcalf on April 2 in Frisco, Texas. According to media reports, Metcalf told Karmelo to move out of his seat, and Karmelo reacted by knifing him. Metcalf died on the scene as his killer asked arresting police if he could claim “self-defense.”
It looks like just about any old excuse will get this guy off the hook if his recent successes are any indication. On April 14 a judge reduced his bail from $1 million to $250,000, so Karmelo walked out free except for home arrest.
But the winning keeps on coming: as of April 15, a fundraiser for the knife killer set up by his family has netted $433,000, surpassing the amount donated to the family of the slain boy. The family says they’re going to buy a brand-new house with security because they feel “threatened.”
Let’s see what the public has to say. Naturally, poor little Karmelo has some backers.
But more people reacted with sanity.
