Twenty Four hours after the Alexandria Shooting, the Narrative from the Left has been between “Not our Fault, it is your fault” with dashes of “They had it coming” served in a bed of glee and attaboys for the shooter.
Not only there is nor hint of remorse or even willingness to change the rhetoric, it seems that the drums are now beating harder for more people like James T. Hodgkinson to step up and increase the violence. I foresee an increase on violent acts, specially Antifa attacks and for some reason I see them going hard after cops during marches. And the traditional “addressing of injustices via arson” will be making a big appearance.
But none of that really scares me. I mean, I fear people being hurt by the Stupid because they feel entitled to impose their views and kill if necessary, but again, that does not scare me.
What scares me is the silence from our side.
This is not a silence of the cowered. Not the silence of the scared. It is the silence of the people who has had enough and are seriously thinking on returning the favor and then some. I have mentioned many times in this blog that the Left has confused our politeness with cowardice and that was going to prove a costly mistake. I fear we have reached the time where politeness is over and demonstration of how wrong they were is about to begin.
Must I at length the Sword of Justice draw?
Oh curst Effects of necessary Law!
How ill my Fear they by my Mercy scan,

They want a reaction. They desire it, so they can run to Mommy.gov and scream that Billy hit me, no mention of how many lousy things they did the Billy to provoke this. Classic CryBullies.
“Beware the Fury of a Patient Man.”
Indeed.
“This is not a silence of the cowered…”
Excellent usage! Bravo!
It is said that the Dalai Lama is quoted thusly:
Don’t ever mistake
My silence, for ignorance
My calmness, for acceptance
My kindness, for weakness
Or my patience, for fear.
