An Open Letter to America's Far Left

redstate.com

Now that I'm done belaboring the obvious with that comment: A quick look at coverage of the American far left should be concerning to anyone who harbors notions of what a, well, normal society should look like. It's happening in Europe, too, but Europe has even bigger problems, not the least of which is that most of the continent's nations are well on their way to becoming Muslim caliphates, but we'll talk about that another time. No, it's the United States I'm concerned with, and how the far left is trying, in some cases literally, to burn our country down.

So, I will now address these far-left nutbars directly.

All of you who are rioting, setting fire to cars, attacking cops, and, yes, trying to assassinate any activists who are politically to the right of Rosa Luxemburg, there are a few things you need to understand, the first of which is this simple statement:

We're not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with us.

America has a vast silent majority, you see. Many of us on the center and the center-right are part of this unassuming demographic, first named as such (ironically) in the 1920 presidential campaign by the Republican vice-presidential candidate Calvin "Silent Cal" Coolidge, and again in 1969 by then-President Richard Nixon. Nixon is best known for his resignation after the Watergate scandal, but we should also note that he won re-election in 1972 by a massive 49-state electoral landslide, a feat matched by only one other president, Ronald Reagan - and it was in large part the silent majority that put both men in the White House.

The silent majority are the people who go to work every day, pay their bills, save for a retirement home, and mind their own business. A lot of them don't pay much attention to politics until after Labor Day in an election year. Most of them just want to go through their lives, see their kids grow up and have kids of their own, and enjoy their golden years. They don't want to see hordes of people entering the country illegally. Many of their ancestors came here through the legal process, and they don't like line-jumpers. They also don't want to see crazy, wild-eyed, pink-haired nitwits screeching their support for Hamas murderers on the nation's college campuses and waving Mexican flags over burning police cars in Los Angeles.

These people are a big part of the reason Donald Trump is in the White House right now. They - we - put him there to Make America Great Again, but also to Make America Normal Again. He's a reaction, not a cause, and, amazingly, none of you on the far left are smart enough to figure that out - Donald Trump is a reaction to you. They are us. They are America. They are the mainstream.

And, again: We're not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with us.

Portland PD Basically Tells Conservative Journalists Attacked by Antifa, 'Your Skirt Was Too Short'

We're tired of seeing your useful idiots try to set our country ablaze. Your useful idiots are like toddlers with Molotov cocktails, screeching like banshees and threatening violence and death if they don't get their way. And, as we saw recently in Texas, and before that, with the unthinkable assassination of Charlie Kirk, some of your useful idiots have listened to the far-left's "leadership," listened to them calling us normal Americans fascists, Nazis, and worse, simply because we don't want boys on our daughter's sports teams and in their locker rooms, because we don't want the borders thrown open to hordes of mostly military-aged men from who knows where, and because we don't want our kids indoctinated with this horse squeeze in the schools and universities. 

The Trump administration is trying to set us back on course. Recently, as my colleague Nick Arama so eloquently documented, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem paid a visit to Portland and laid out what's going to happen - what the city of Portland refuses to do.

She also met with Portland's top cop, and he came out of that meeting looking like a man who had just had his butt handed to him - in thin slices.

This may be the far left's last chance to return to sanity through normal channels. You should think about that.

Because we're not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with us.

The rioting, arson, and looting have to stop. The attacks on federal law enforcement have to stop. The endless screeching of "Nazi" and "fascist" has to stop. You people have to get a grip. More to the point, you need to understand the logistics of your move, of your movement. There are hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of normal, silent-majority Americans for every pink-haired idiot throwing empty bottles at cops. There are hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of normal Americans (many of whom are military veterans) who are getting fed up. Those normal Americans don't normally take to the streets in outrage, because we have jobs, we have homes, we have families. But we can also only be pushed so far.

And we're not locked in here with you.

You're locked in here with us.
