IT’S ALMOST LIKE THESE RIOTERS DON’T KNOW OR CARE MUCH ABOUT WHAT THEY’RE SUPPOSEDLY RIOTING OVER: Protesters Tell Rand Paul, Who Wrote the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act, To Say Breonna Taylor’s Name. “Recall that Paul is no stranger to physical violence: He was brutally attacked by his next-door-neighbor in 2017, suffering injuries to his ribs and lungs. He was also present at the 2017 Congressional baseball game shooting. . . . It would be wrong to physically intimidate the Pauls in any case. But the crowd also failed to recognize that their alleged foe is one of the most consistent voices for criminal justice reform in the U.S. Senate. To borrow a favorite phrase of the woke activist crowd: Educate yourself, street protesters.”
They’re uneducated, and they’re not after justice, but rather catharsis, power, and a sense of unearned significance.
