re: #358 Aunty Entity Dragon

Fuck it.

I was just looking in at Balloon Juice and noticed a number of the juicers are mocking the third shooting victim who was killed by Mrs MIller while trying to confront Jared at the Wal Mart. he didn’t know that the girl was also a shooter. (A mistake many cops would have made as well. Female shooters are almost unheard of)

This is the sort of smug, condescending bullshit that looses elections for Democrats.

Salt of the earth types may like progressive policies at 75% rate…but they also know when they or their values are being mocked…and it is utterly deadly for progressives. Sarah Palin gets that…which is why she is so effective at reaching blue collar types. Elitism and scorn will fucking kill progressives any and every day of the week…and we just…keep…doing it.

The guy tried to do something and he is dead because of a mistake that likely would have killed many professionals. It is damned lucky that the pepper spray guy in Seattle didn’t get killed as well. You always run that risk in an active shooter situation. Despicable comments at Balloon Juice accusing him of carry a handgun to protect white women from the negro hoards should be held as evidence that we progressives have some of the same sort of sorry assholes that you see at Red State.

It’s sad but I suspect a lot of people really don’t mean it. They get caught up in the culture wars and they’re saying things and expressing opinions they think hurt their enemies on the other side. Deep down I think most people recognize the importance of self defense and the noble act of trying to save others. They aren’t shitty people they’re just saying shitty things.
