Last night, I watched Laura Ingraham interview Rep. Lashawn Ford (D) of Illinois. Rep. Ford was calling for the National Guard to be deployed to fight out-of-control crime in the city of Chicago.
At one point during the interview, Ingraham tossed out the question, “Do you also think the National Guard should be sent to protect our southern border?” Ford, without missing a beat, replied, “No. That would be trampling civil rights.”
Now let me see if I understand this. Placing Chicago under martial law would NOT be trampling civil rights, but deploying the military on the border to keep out foreign nationals IS trampling civil rights? Uh-huh. Sure. Would someone please explain to me how foreign nationals who are trying to enter our country illegally have more civil rights than American citizens living in Chicago?
Rep. Ford sounded like a brainwashed automaton, spouting the politically correct (albeit completely irrational) response to every question. I don’t believe he ever paused to consider how completely irrational he sounded.
That’s why it’s so difficult to try to discuss any issue with a liberal. Liberals seem to have put their brains in neutral. They don’t bother to consider any issue in a rational manner or to place it in context; they simply spout the party line, no matter how ridiculous it may sound.
