Response to Carl Thomas
Link
Kneeling to a Saudi prince to excuse a brutal murder and
sell out the moral standing of the United States in return for a few dollars in
arms sales may be lauded in some circles. Kneeling to protest unwarranted
deaths of young black men may be treason in those same circles. It's not for me
to judge, but Mr. Trump's path to glory may be very narrow. It's fortunate for
him that Jerry Falwell Jr. and Franklin Graham are giving him such magnificent
moral guidance.
If Mr. Thomas was taught it's against the law to desecrate
or disrespect the flag or national anthem, I believe he was taught wrongly. The
Nazis had a law against flag desecration. That's maybe not a good precedent. We
could stick with the first amendment that protects acts of protest. It also
defends his right to interpret the Bible any way he wants. With over 300
denominations of Christians there may be some who disagree with him on certain
points.
I wish he'd expounded on the anarchy he sees. What we do
have are racists in Charlottesville who were responsible for the death of a
young woman. A bomber in Florida sent explosives to prominent folks on the
left. A mass murderer in Pittsburgh killed Jews on their holiest day in their
house of worship. None of these anarchists were influenced by Democrats. Should
we call for martial law to round up Trump supporters? Insufficient loyalty to
the president isn't justification for locking anyone up. That's still the
opinion outside of fanatics who worship orange idols.
