Liberals again in full voice
Another year here at good old UM, and it’s good to see that the indoctrinated automaton liberals are again in full voice. After reading Ryan Morton’s letter to the Editor on Sept. 20, I can see that liberals are receding further and further away from reality as time goes by. Ryan Morton, obviously a misguided liberal, was “shocked” and “disturbed” by the editorial written by Emma Schmautz on Sept. 19 in the Kaimin. How can a person be disturbed when another person demands that people be treated according to their merits and abilities and not according to the color of their skin? Mr. Morton, what exactly is a “privileged gender”? Can you name me one, just ONE, woman who was denied acceptance to UM, or any other school, because she had breasts? Can you? Of course you can’t. But I, on the other hand, can run you a list three pages long of Caucasian males around this country who were denied scholarships simply because of their race AND gender, Mr. Morton. That happens because people like you believe in “affirmative action” which in itself is simply state-sponsored (by liberals) sexism and racism. I wonder what the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. would say now, especially when his greatest belief has been completely ignored or perverted by the contemporary liberal: “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” Ever hear of that, Mr. Morton? You and your present-day ilk have completely reversed those glorious words to suit your own misplaced (and confusing) obsession with political correctness.
One other point I’d like to make. I read with great interest the article on page 7 of the Sept. 20 Kaimin about how the Taliban continue to use innocent women and children as “human shields.” Can you imagine that? This goes on in the Muslim world every day, where mothers are forced at gunpoint their children (yes, even infants) in the line of fire just to protect these power-hungry barbarians. And people like Ryan Morton criticize America for what he perceives as “sexism,” then say nothing about the complete lack of even the most basic freedoms for women in the Islamic world. Women and children are slaughtered every day by Shiites trying to kill Sunnis. Sunnis kill women and children for the same reason. If a woman is caught simply driving a car, she can be legally put to death in Saudi Arabia and Iran, yet America is “evil” and “lacking human rights” according to liberals. Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?
