Wtf? So his crime is he DIDN'T report on something..? Am I missing something here? Am I the crazy one??
I don't know anything about this "Patriot's Prayer" but I DO know that it's not fucking ok for a journalist to get beat up because his politics are different than yours. And yes - Quilette verified that Andy IS (or at least WAS), in fact, an editor for the publication and that they're of a CENTER LEFT persuasion. Not that that should matter.. It's just that the modern left has gone so far off the deep end that center-left = far right to them now (because relatively speaking on the political compass, it's technically true from where they stand!)
Jesus christ, the mental gymnastics some people go through to convince themselves this shit flies..
I love the excuse of "he had it coming" or "GOT HIMSELF beat up," rather than placing blame on the people who ACTUALLY beat this man up, as if they're little children or somehow can't control their own psychotic tantrums. Doesn't sound unlike the excuses a rapist uses! "ehhh she had it comin'!"
Though I guess I shouldn't be surprised, given the utter lack of accountability/responsibility anymore, especially in the US.. Everything I do that's bad "isn't my fault! It's this guy's fault!"
I swear, we've completely devolved into savages and spoiled children. It's frightening...
