I’m not praising Trump, I am just saying that so far no-one has accused him of abuse and rape, unlike the Left’s Saint Bill Clinton or Hollywood’s “s*xually liberated” progressive leftists. Trump really does seem to have obtained consent in every case. I deplore Trump’s marital unfaithfulness and respect purity, but by saying this, most progressive leftists will immediately hate me much more than they hate Mr Trump. Vice President Pence is regularly mocked for his puritanism, which is almost certainly what the progressive Left hates most of all. Its criticism of political opponents who are moral libertines, is just opportunistic hypocrisy on their part.
Of course I deplore predatory priests too, and also deplore “churches” with no standards. The churches I endorse, discipline evil behavior and expel guilty immoral people. These churches, too, are hated by the progressive Left for their “puritanism”. The Left are pathological haters; nothing that Christians or conservatives do, is respected by them.
It is ironic and hypocritical that feminists in celebrity circles decide to adopt puritanism now after existing in a known swamp of corruption all their working lives. It further demonstrated their duplicity of standards, that abortion continues to be like an article of faith with them: why, if not that s*xual liberation has to also be an article of faith with them? If they want purity, then abortion is unnecessary, is it not? The French celebrities who signed the petition about s*xual liberation and accusing #metoo of setting the cause back decades, are at least consistent.
Turning a blind eye to the plight of women in low socio-economic urban locations, is just more typical hypocrisy, whether the predatory males there are immigrants or local drug dealers or gang members or whatever.
And I’m not saying that what is actually happening in the USA is all good either. I am criticizing the same stupidity coming from the naive “progressive” Left in both places. And trying to warn Europe. If you think the USA has problems, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet on your own continent. Your comment that Muslim attacks have “hardly started” is quite right but not for the reasons you think. The attacks so far are just early experiments or more impatient individuals. You have foolishly let so many people into your continent with so little checking of who they are, it is certain that ISIS strategic planning has taken advantage of this. The naivete and denial is astonishing! The slander of your own people who are awake to reality, is even worse; they are like The Resistance and you are like Vichy. Not to mention the good immigrants (you are quite right about most immigrants being good people) who are warning you that “the people we fled from have come here too”. If those relatively small numbers of extremists made their countries of origin hell-holes, they can make Europe a hell-hole too.
I am perfectly aware of blogs and information sources from “both sides”. I am not “ignorant”, I just disagree with you about is who is right and who is wrong. Switzerland has a very high number of guns, even compared to the USA, and it does not have a murder problem. Culture does matter, a lot. A time will come when you will wish you were in Switzerland with lots of good ordinary people who own guns.
Ironic that the USA’s “problems with drugs” (and guns) are condemned and yet the border across which supplies of them come to criminals, must not be secure because this would be “racist”. Leftist naivety about this will ensure that Europe ends up with at least as bad a problem on this issue as well. Just like with ISIS strategic planners, drug runners will also inevitably exploit such naivety. It is foolish to fail to safeguard against evil: do you have locks on your own doors? Why?
