Have you ever noticed you can tell a lot about the character of a person or persons by how they clean up after themselves?
Remember the massive tea party rallies and demonstrations? After they ended and everyone went home, the grounds were usually left in better shape than when the rally began.
Not so of the large women’s rally in Washington last weekend.
Take a look at what they left behind:
No doubt about who left all the garbage. The signs tell the story. I particularly love the irony of the one that reads: “We are better than this!”
Of course, what would you expect from people who are incapable of self-government. In fact, they wouldn’t even know what the term meant. These are folks who depend on government to force others, with whom they disagree, to live like them.
What you see in the garbage-strewn aftermath of this rally – ostensibly for opposite-sex bathrooms, same-sex marriages and abortion on demand – is a disgrace for sure. But it’s more than that. It’s evidence of animus for the nation’s capital, its residents, its city workers, for the nation at large. It shows their contempt for others, their warped notion of their own “privilege.” Who else acts like this?
Would they have dumped their garbage in the streets if Barack Obama were still president? Probably. We’ve seen it before over the last eight years. Which groups drop their garbage on the ground?
- radical feminists, as you see above;
- “environmentalists,” as you see here;
- Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton supporters.
Do you remember what the scene was like after Obama’s inauguration in 2009?
Heaps of plastic bottles, food wrappers, soda cans and newspapers blanketed the National Mall. According to the Department of Public Works public information officer Linda Grant, 100 tons of trash was left behind.
By contrast, only 40 tons of garbage were collected in New York City’s Time Square on New Year’s Day the same year. Some 1 million people attended that celebration, according to the city’s Department of Sanitation, many of them in a drunken stupor.
It illustrates for me the difference between the two Americas we live in as we kick off a new year and a new era of leadership.
Which America would you prefer?
Which America would you rather live in?
Is it even a close call?
I was in Washington before, during and after the inauguration last weekend. The mall was clean before, during and after.
A day later, after tens of thousands of angry radical feminists came to make their statement, the city streets were a disaster area.
Whom would you prefer as your neighbor?
A self-policing Trump supporter or one of these hags?
Am I painting with a broad brush? Maybe. But I’ve been observing this phenomenon for 62 years now. I was once on the other side – a participant in many leftist, anti-American, pro-communist demonstrations. I remember what they were like. I didn’t care back then. I had a completely different worldview. But I still remember how contemptuously we left behind the garbage. It was deliberate. We had no thought for the people who had to clean it up. We had no thought for the people who lived there. We smashed plate glass windows, turned over the cars of innocent victims and spit on those with whom we disagreed – figuratively and literally.
Nothing much has changed since then.
So, here’s the bigger question: Who’s America would you prefer to live in?
One run by the people wearing the pink pussyhats? Or one run by people who believe in self-government?
I’ve made my choice.
