OPINION:
The Democratic National Convention has done a lot to live up to the stupidity of the likes of the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and others too numerous to mention. At the covention the Democrats have celebrated the recent rash of officer killings by bringing in the mothers of black individuals killed by police (who were acting in the ine of duty to defend themselves). Maybe convention organizers should have brought in Black Lives Matter activists and given them the floor for more celebration by the liberals.
Thus far at the event there has been not one word about our great police officers who are on the front lines every day and night trying to protect us from hoodlums, murderers, thieves and drug dealers. And what about the Catholic priest in France whose throat was cut by an Islamic State terrorist as he said Mass? This took place on the first day of the convention, and it ought to have warranted at least a moment of silence. Yet it did not.
In fact, there has been no mention at all of the Islamic State, which continues to kill and maim hundreds nearly every day around the world Oh, that’s right; President Obama said it was a “JV team.” Brilliant. How much longer will we tolerate this?
