This is not your grandfather’s
Democratic Party.
Incredibly, several 2020 Democratic
presidential candidates, including Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Sen. Elizabeth
Warren (D-Mass.) and Mayor Pete Buttigieg, recently called for the repeal
of laws meant to protect innocent people from potentially contracting the
deadly AIDS virus. These laws currently require HIV-positive individuals to
disclose their status to sexual partners. It is illegal for someone to expose
another person to the virus without them knowing about it and having the
opportunity to give informed consent. Doing otherwise would be horrific and
should be considered a “hate crime.” Yet, as the Washington Examiner
pointed out, during CNN’s recent LGBTQ town hall, host Anderson Cooper noted
that new drugs exist which make the virus “undetectable,” and supposedly unable
to be transmitted to someone else. Cooper opined that this means laws
criminalizing nondisclosure of the virus are “antiquated” and “based on old
science.”
Mayor Buttigieg concurred and said
of the laws, “It’s not fair, and it needs to change.” As usual, Democrats are
only concerned with the “rights” of perpetrators and criminals, while
disparaging and mocking law-abiding citizens, the police, ICE, and any other
group that contributes to societal stability and real “progress.” Would it be
fair to potential sexual partners of HIV-positive people if these laws were
repealed? What if folks with HIV don’t disclose that fact and aren’t
taking the drugs that prevent the transfer of the virus to others? Bummer. Hate
it when that happens. Oh, well.
The Democrats are proposing: repealing
laws that help prevent the spread of the HIV virus (while calling Republicans
mean-spirited gay-haters), making abortion legal up until the moment of birth
(or slightly after), preventing law-abiding citizens from protecting
themselves and their loved ones by weakening or repealing the Second Amendment,
letting anyone and everyone enter the country illegally…and then paying
for their college, medical care, etc., etc., erasing the nation’s borders,
banning the internal combustion engine (automobiles and airplanes), banning the
extraction, processing and use of all effective and dependable sources of
energy including nuclear power, mandating the rebuilding of every structure in
America and the extinction of the cow, and spending countless trillions of
dollars to do all this thus assuring the bankrupting of America and world
economic collapse. Yes, let’s model our economy after North Korea’s, Cuba’s and
Venezuela’s! Love that centralized government control!
On top of all this, Democrats and
their supporters have essentially kicked God out of public spaces and
are now trying to evict Him from private spaces, while inviting men into
women’s bathrooms and locker rooms and vice-versa. They are pursuing further
bans on smoking cigarettes and now “vaping,” while feverishly working for the
legalization of marijuana around the country and even “magic mushrooms” in some
areas. Democrats in California have now loosened restrictions on unruly
classroom behavior, while nationally many in higher education are now
demanding that work be graded not
on merit but on social factors. In the world that Democrats have wrought,
young girls can get abortions on demand, but may be in trouble if they
“misgender” someone.
To whom does this make sense? This
is precisely what a society would do if it were intent on wiping out human
life, or at least making everyone suffer terribly. It is almost as if they
listened to Paul Harvey’s classic 1964 “If
I Were the Devil” prophecy and turned it into a policy prescription.
What kind of a platform
is this? If one of these Democrats is elected president in 2020, it will be
proof positive that the country has changed so dramatically that it will no
longer be recognizable-- or the dynamic force for freedom and prosperity it has
historically been.
