Political correctness used to be thought of as a bit of a joke back when it appeared in our national consciousness. It has now morphed into a willful blindness that is crushing freedom of speech and free thought.
We are told not to jump to conclusions, not to prejudge, not to engage in stereotyping. Why not? Are we not free people able to think our own thoughts, form our own opinions, and draw conclusions based on observable events? Are we supposed to wait for those self appointed thinkers and opinion leaders who wish to think for us? Progressives would say yes. I say hell no.
If we allow others to think for us, we have given up our freedom. We are nothing but a heard of sheep waiting for the dog to herd us. We have become slaves rowing at the oars of our government owned galley. If our founders could come back for a visit they would be horrified.
The Koran says non-believers should be given the choice of conversion or death. Check it out. After 9/11 Americans had no trouble understanding who the enemy was. Why are our leaders having such a hard time calling a spade a spade?
Allow me. Ft. Hood was TERRORISM. This was beyond a crime, this was a statement, this was another indicator that America and Americans are a target. There is no safety zone.
The lessons of 9/11 have been lost on our investigative agencies. It is time to put political correctness back in the closet before more Americans die at the hands of TERRORISTS!
