Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Sorry Mr. Prager, you reached the nice but wrong conclussion.

Today, we watch leftist mobs scream profanities at professors and deans, and shut down conservative and pro-Israel speakers at colleges. We routinely witness left-wing protesters block highways and bridges, scream in front of the homes of conservative business and political leaders, and surround conservatives’ tables at restaurants while shouting and chanting at them.

Why do leftists feel entitled do all these things? Because they have thoroughly rejected middle-class, bourgeois, and Judeo-Christian religious values.

Why Leftists Feel Entitled to Block Highways, Shut Down Speakers, and Harass Public Officials

The answer is so much simpler: Because they do not face consequences.

As long as they keep getting away with it, they will keep doing it and increasing it. And that includes only spending a couple of hours in jail after being booked which in their book is a badge of honor, specially since their low bails are being posted by somebody else.

They incur in no risk when they do their political deeds. Restaurant owners are terrified they will be harassed if they stand up to these morons and they rather be forcefully woke than being a target. Interestingly enough, this kind of behavior has been seen but is never productive in one locale: Night Clubs. It must be because the second you go stupid, several huge bouncers will engage in teaching you the different flavors of the pavement outside the place.

If you make them bleed, (either by blood or cash) they will suddenly find out that is cheaper, safer and polite to engage in a peaceful redress of grievances.

Antifa blocks and redirects traffic in Portland. Where were the cops?

You may have seen videos of this event where a group of idiots took over an intersection in Portland and started to redirect traffic as they saw fit including threatening drivers.

 

So, why didn’t police stopped this? The answer is they went Baltimore:

When asked for comment, Portland Police Bureau’s said that introducing law enforcement to a crowd of people engaged in illegal activity could “change the demeanor of the crowd for the worse.”

“The Police Bureau respects the rights of community members to practice their First Amendment Right to free speech as well the desire of community members to remain safe while traveling and living in the area where free speech events occur,” Portland Police Department Public Information Officer Sergeant Chris Burley told Blue Lives Matter on Monday afternoon.

“These events are dynamic and require the Police Bureau determine how to best respond,” Sgt. Burley continued. “There are times that introducing law enforcement into an event may in turn change the demeanor of the crowd for the worse.”

I am gonna go with the long Left Hand of the Portland Mayor giving standing down orders to the police just like he did with the ICE protestors harassing and interfering with the ICE workers these past months and for which he knows is facing calls for a lawsuit.

If this trend continues, I’d say Portland is due a nice little riot with plenty of arson and assorted property destruction in the name of…something or other Leftist. Well deserved if I may add as you never cuddle feral animals and expect to leave without a scratch.
