Liberals are certain that they know what is best for everybody else. They jet around the world on private jets and gather so they can lecture the masses about lowering their carbon footprint. They declare that border walls are immoral, while they establish their own private borders and hide in walled compounds. They preach the evils of guns and demand unilateral disarmament, while under the protection of armed security. Or, in this case, argue for banning guns while maintaining their own arsenal.
The FBI recently raid the offices of a Chicago alderman. The alderman, Edmund Burke is a member of organized crime in Chicago, known as the democratic party. The link above explains.
Daniel Greenfield
the FBI raided the offices of the powerful Chicago Democrat, they found 23 guns. That’s a lot of guns for one man. Especially for a man who had worked hard to ban handguns in Chicago.
Burke has made a career of advocating bans on a wide variety of items and activities.
Chicago Sun Times
This year the Chicago Sun-Times had dubbed him the “Ban Man”. Burke had banned or tried to ban laundry detergent, spray paint, smoking, trans fats, plastic knives, caffeine drinks, horse-drawn carriages, Uber, chewing tobacco and e-cigarettes.
This liberal Irish politician is the embodiment of chutzpah. Conventional definitions don’t do chutzpah justice. Here is a better explanation.
Chabad.org
Chutzpah is a Hebrew word that has been adopted into Yiddish and then English. Chutzpah has been defined as audacity, insolence, impudence, gall, brazen nerve, effrontery, incredible guts, presumption and arrogance. Yet something essential about chutzpah is missing from all these words.
Chutzpah can be destructive and ugly or vital and fantastic, but never in-between.
I don’t think liberals believe the bullshit they advocate. I think what they do believe is the exercise of power for its own sake. Since people like Burke have no intention of being limited by the positions they advocate, it is no hardship to impose restrictions. What matters, to them, is the fact that society deferred to their whims.
Liberals, rapists, terrorists, child molesters, mass murderers, and armed robbers all occupy the same boat. The payoff is the same, no matter the inclination, the exultation that comes from wielding power. What separates them is only a matter of scale.
