You’re Not Tolerant Or Humanitarian. You’re Just A Partisan Hack Defending Slander.
First Things' Postmodern Conservative ^ | April 25, 2013 | Pete Spiliakos

Isaac Chotiner explains that the expressed desire/hope/prediction of many liberals that the Boston bombers turn out to be white non-Muslims was based on a “reasoned reactions to a society that is still full of racism and bigotry” and that “in times of national emergency or stress, double standards—one form of that dreaded disease called political correctness—serve very useful purposes.” He writes that if the bomber had turned out to be white, then the bombing would have been treated as an isolated incident and that if the bombers were “militia-men type extremists”, then you wouldn’t have seen racial profiling and such. It is almost convincing but…

Did you notice that when liberals were talking about white terrorists, they didn’t mean just any old white terrorists? Liberals were predicting (hoping for) “militia-men” who were “on the right” and inspired by Tax Day. Whites, like most large groups of people, are a varied bunch. So are white terrorists. Most of the Occupy movement-inspired bombing conspirators in Cleveland were white. Kathy Boudin, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn were all white. Somehow I don’t think that Isaac Chotiner’s liberal friends were hoping that the Boston bombers were deranged fans of the Occupy movement.

If liberals really were hoping that the Boston bombing would be a one-off, then they, in all their deep commitment to tolerance, would have hoped that the bombers were left-wing extremists. Remember how, after the Gabby Gifford’s shooting, we were all told by the president to tone down our rhetoric and how a New York Times entertainer suggested that Sarah Palin had contributed to the climate that led to the shooting? The guy who shot Giffords was just a loon whose obsessions had nothing to do with partisan politics, but that did not stop liberals....

The truth is these events, whether planned and coordinated or isolated, are used by the media and Democrats to condemn conservatism at every opportunity.

It does not matter how the flow of perverted logic ends up from a pressure cooker bomb to ‘gun-violence’ or ‘sequestration’ or whatever. It only matters that the connection is made and blame is placed. The absurdity is so blatant a lot of the times, and it is unbelievably done with a straight face!

Each time I see Schumer or whatever shill-du-jour they trot out to spew this nonsense, I can’t help thinking there’s a little bird tweeting in their head saying “Yeah! That’s the ticket” in a congratulatory pat on the head even John Lovitz would be proud of.

...Isaac Chotiner any rational non-libtard explains that the expressed desire/hope/prediction rational likelihood of many liberals that the Boston bombers turn out to be white non-Radical Muslims was based on a “reasoned reactions to a society that is still full of racism and bigotry” reasoned analysis that when large groups of innocent people are injured and killed by hidden bombs, radical muslims are behind it 99% of the time and that “in times of national emergency or stress, double standards—one form of that dreaded disease scourge and pox so beloved of the left called political correctness—serve very useful purposes to liberals, useful idiots and scumbag politicians.” He writes that if the bomber had turned out to be whitemuslim, then the bombing would have been treated as an isolated incident and that if the bombers were “militia-men type extremists”radical muslims, then you wouldn’t have seen racial profilingSHOULD see profiling of arabic men between the age of 14 and 47 who are the followers of Islam and such..."

There. Fixed it.
