Always. That's the problem with the Left. You guys always conclude the end justifies the means, and therefore laws mean nothing, ethics mean nothing, all that matters is what you want.
There goes that projection thingy again. No one practices "the end justifies the means" like the Right. It is their motto. Don't like abortion? Which is a legitimate position. Can't restrict it through legal means? Well then, pass restrictive legislation over concern for "women's health". Despite the fact that abortion is an incredibly safe procedure with virtually zero complications. And then, cut back on support for pregnant women so that maternal mortality doubles over a few years like in Texas. Yeah, really concerned over women's health there...
But wait, there is more! Conservatives yammer about principle all the time. So who do they choose for their presidential candidate? Someone who has no clear principles, Donald Trump. Someone who has come out against most of the principles that conservatives allegedly hold dear, like a smaller government. And alleged conservatives, like yourself, fully support him for president because he is your only hope to win this election cycle.
Or, concerned about winning elections? Then do like North Carolina. Study the voting habits of the various demographic groups in the state. Choose the groups that trend Democratic. And then pass measures that target those and only those groups. When challenged in court because the groups targeted tend to be minorities, defend yourself by saying that you were just trying to suppress Democratic voters and thus are not racist. Or the legislators in Pennsylvania who justify their attempts to suppress voters by claiming "Democrats would do it to us". Because the ends, winning elections, justifies then means, literally everything but having minorities and other Democratic leaning demographics shot...
The list is very much longer than what is detailed here. The Right routinely does whatever necessary to achieve its ends. If it involves greatly increasing the mortality rate for certain demographics, who cares? If it costs lots of tax payer money for nothing but a symbolic show? No big deal. If it crashes the economy and damages the future of a large number of people? Not a problem. Does it involve starting unnecessary wars? Hey, it is a volunteer force. |
