Good comment from "Gates of Vienna" on the LAPD cancellation of Muslim montoring.
Put in Your Earplugs, Put on Your Eyeshades…
By Baron Bodissey
…you know where to put the cork.
Conservative Swede has demonstrated at length how thoroughly Western culture is shackled by PC thinking. It's not just a leftist or liberal phenomenon; it cuts across the political spectrum. Most conservatives are just as hobbled by it as is the most ardent enthusiast of Multiculturalism. It has become a kind of unconscious group-think, shared by almost everyone in the culture.
It's as if we're all possessed by the PC demon and we don't realize it. What we need is a good exorcist.
When it comes to Islam, the blinders are fully in place. Because of the PC constraints against hate speech, profiling, racism, etc., it's simply not permitted to consider the possibility that our deadly enemies are dispersed among us, planning violence and destruction while remaining concealed under the camouflage of "religion".
Not that every Muslim is dangerous, or that every mosque is a hotbed of jihad zealotry. But many dangerous and seditious radicals do live in the Muslim communities and conspire in their mosques. We are in the midst of a war with this very enemy, and yet we may not monitor our foe, nor search him out in his hiding places, nor track his movements, nor eavesdrop on his conversations, nor even name him. |
