Snipers use scopes. I think you see what you want to in pictures. That's interesting.

Slowly but surely, context and fact began to come out. It turned out that in the same interview edited (deceptively) by the MSM, Cliven Bundy had spoken supportively of the civil rights and human interests of the black residents in the riot-plagued Watts neighborhood. The MSM left that part out. His comments, taken in toto, showed that he applauds the progress made in race relations, and what he despises is the patterns of welfarism, which he thinks come from federal programs, not from something that’s wrong with black people. This puts him in company with black leaders like E.W. Jackson, Allen West, J.C. Watts, and Mia Love, as well as distinguished economic philosopher Thomas Sowell, economist Walter Williams, and best-selling author Larry Elder, among others. Bundy also thinks Mexicans are awesome people and America needs more of them. Hardly the sentiments of a “racist.” Next, black commentators who have personally interacted with Bundy began reporting that he’s not only not a racist, he’s a superb man, a stand-up guy, someone they’d take a bullet for. It’s quite possible that more testimonials in this vein will emerge in the days ahead. I’m happy for Mr. Bundy in that regard. It doesn’t sound to me like he deserves to be defamed in the hearts of honest people. But from a larger perspective, two separate, game-changing things have been clarified. One is just how beside the point the whole manufactured racism flap is. There were too many of us who couldn’t be made craven and inarticulate by it. It’s over, MSM. You’re talking to yourselves – and you look like a crazy drug addict on a street corner doing it. Read more at libertyunyielding.com
