Quote:Addressing multiple things through the prism of political correctness is nothing more than pure folly. 

 

You're not going to hug the hate out of radicals.  They are at war with the United States, and because we lack the understanding and leadership to recognize that the only way to deal with cancer is to stop metastasis and kill the disease.  We have leadership who still thinks this can be contained through appeasement and a lot of talk.  They don't recognize that the enemy simply sees that as weakness, and they continue to escalate the violence in return.

 

I'm not a war monger by any means, but when you see how this cancer has spread, at some point you have to come to the conclusion that the only way to address this is to kill it at the root.  This radical mindset threatens the stability of this country in a way that I don't think the progressive world really understands.  They're so focused on things like BLM, LBGT, abortion rights, growing entitlement programs to include things like free college, and a host of other pet projects the left tends to gravitate toward that they don't realize we're at war. 

 

What happened yesterday wasn't out of the norm if you're in some middle eastern country.  They toss homosexuals off of buildings, hang them, shoot them, behead them, and torture them relentlessly.  We just got a taste of that reality here in the United States. 

 

It's time for the United States to declare war against ISIS/ISIL.  I know that as a nation, we are war weary, but until we deal with this issue, and do it in a serious manner, we're going to be living in fear of the next attack.  We faced a similar radical mindset on two fronts in WWII, and we didn't shy away from what needed to be done.  We attacked it head on.  That needs to happen now, but honestly I don't think we have the leadership from either side who will be able to make the case for this unless we start to see bigger and more audacious attacks on US soil.

The key thing being LEADERSHIP.

 

We are now being forced to vote in an "American Idol" kind of election.  It's more about who is "more popular" rather than who is more qualified.  Neither side can tout the "qualifications" of their candidate.  A large majority of conservatives and/or Republicans don't like Trump.  A vast majority of liberals and Democrats don't like Hillary Clinton.

 

Those are pretty much the two choices that we face this coming November.  Which of those two would come out and seriously do something regarding the War on Terror?  Clinton will try to take guns away and Trump will try to build a wall.  We are so [BLEEP].
