Virginia Reporters Prove Once Again that All Lives Matter (Jeffrey Lord)

Yes, all lives matter.

And all one has to do to understand that elemental truth is observe the tidal wave of grief over the taking of the lives of the two Virginia news reporters Alison Parker and Adam Ward. The media is saturated with coverage of their shocking murder.

In the wake of the murders, let’s recall that one Democratic presidential candidate—former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley—allowed himself to be bullied into backing down from the idea that “all lives matter.”

Recall as well that another presidential candidate, the far more prominent former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has raced to the defense of Planned Parenthood in the wake of those horrific videos that depict the selling of baby parts, saying: “For more than a century, Planned Parenthood has provided essential services for women. And I think it is unfortunate that Planned Parenthood has been the object of such a concerted attack for so many years. And it’s really an attack against a woman’s right to chose.” For a Clinton to say such a thing about a group that was founded by a woman who favored racial eugenics is stunning if not appalling.

And now? Here’s Clinton on the shootings in Virginia: “I feel just great heartache at what happened. I want to reiterate how important it is we not let yet another terrible instance go by without trying to do something more to prevent this terrible killing that is stalking our country.”

Stop.

If the Planned Parenthood videos mean anything, they are testaments to the reality of what happens when people believe that all lives really don’t matter.

Lives matter only as a function of the advancement of political agendas.

Nobody is burning the city, condemning all black people and tearing down the LBGT Rainbow flag. That would be happening if it furthered the agenda of the left. No these lives only matter because the noisy media lost some of their own and politicians with absolutely no moral compass saw an opportunity to advance their agenda.
