The ‘tolerant’ Left loves to cheer on violence against conservatives, especially with their ‘approved’ aggressors.
In an article titled “You Go, Girl: Zoey Tur Gets Aggressive With a Bully From Breitbart News, The Los Angeles Times openly cheers the fact that one person placed their hands on another and then made threats of violence.
I could have also titled this piece, “The L.A. Times Is Why We Need a Second Amendment.”
The reporter, Robin Abcarian, also omits or glosses over numerous facts inconvenient to her fascist narrative. The piece is not only dishonest, it is the elite media championing the dangerous idea that moving from speech to violence is sometimes okay.
And when is such a thing okay?
As though we lived in Germany circa 1933, this is okay the victim is an “approved” victim (in this case conservative Ben Shapiro) and the aggressor is an “approved” aggressor (in this case Zoey Tur, a member of the LGBT community):
You know that scene in a movie when the bully gets his comeuppance?
And you know how you cheer even though you know physical aggression is wrong, but you are thinking hey, someone had to teach this guy a lesson?
That was pretty much my reaction as I watched Zoey Tur’s now well-known interaction with Breitbart News Editor-at-Large Ben Shapiro last week on “Dr. Drew on Call,” the Headline News talk show hosted by addiction expert Drew Pinsky. …
I didn’t think what Tur did amounted to bullying at all, since she was responding to an outrageous and insulting provocation.
Let me end with Shapiro’s own advice from his book on bullies, based on his own experience as a scrawny, picked-on high school student:
“Bullies,” he wrote, “don’t stop bullying until somebody fights them.”
Exactly right.
