For the Governor of New York to speak about people who are against infanticide with such disdain like being Pro Life is some kind of dirty, evil position to take isn't just sad, it's borderline criminal... 55 MILLION of our unborn have been snuffed out since Roe v Wade, as if that's something to be proud of, as if we've saved those women from the burden of giving life... Sure, some of those babies would have had tough childhoods. Some of them may have grown up to be murderers or rapists, but how is that any reason to not give them at least a shot at life? Would you like to be judged for things you might do in the future? That's the kind of precedent being set here.
You can't really get the whole picture of how grotesque Mr. Cuomo's comments are without listening to the audio for yourself. The hatred and disgust in his voice is more than apparent. His tone is thick with rage, and you can almost feel his lust for the blood of the unborn.
These are the kind of people we have allowed to gain a stranglehold on power in this country. Those who not only love to belittle the value of human life, but also would have you believe that murdering babies is empowering and liberating women. But the Governor's comments didn't stop there. He went on to attack all conservative viewpoints in general, also showing equal disgust and disdain for anyone who is for the 2nd Amendment and the basic right of self defense. While that viewpoint isn't all that surprising coming from a leftist, he went on to say that if you hold these conservative viewpoints, then you have no place in the state of New York.
Sure, we can write this off as a left wing loon who has no grasp of our Constitution or the idea of unalienable rights, but the reality is far more dangerous and dark than that.
Conservatives have allowed this kind of thinking to become not only pervasive in our culture, but also very powerful. For those same leftists who hold these radical viewpoints have been extremely effective in stifling dissenting voices by viciously attacking conservatives. Not only are we constantly portrayed as racist, homophobic, anti-women, backwards ignorant redneck bigots, but the leftists have also become adept at using our own government against us.
When conservatives try to organize they are audited and constantly harassed by the IRS. The DOJ and NSA target conservative journalists and commentators. The left has a giant, well oiled and well funded propaganda machine dedicated to reading and attacking all conservative media. Groups like the SPLC and the ADL have an unlimited warchest and are always on the warpath. Even our own President has the audacity to insinuate that if you are against his policies that must mean you are racist.
The race card is an extremely effective one too, because it automatically puts people on the defensive, and forces them to dispel the accusation instead of being able to argue the merits of one position or another.
While all of this may be discouraging, to me it lights the fire in my gut to stand up. Because the radical left has no fear in their positions, they have become emboldened over the last decade. So too we should have no fear in standing against them.
So be daring my fellow Americans, dare to stand in the face of tyranny, stand in the face of the labels and name calling, stand up, for the only other option is to lay down and be trampled.
Brandon- Well written! Great job, bro!
