As David Horowitz has often urged, conservatives need to tell the blunt truth about the Left.
Senator Tuberville captured that in his speech which the Left is raging against.
“They’re not soft on crime,” Senator Tuberville said. “They’re pro-crime. They want crime. They want crime because they want to take over what you got. They want to control what you have. They want reparation because they think the people that do the crime are owed that.”
He’s right. Unambiguously.
But do you know how hard it is to get conservatives to say “pro-crime” instead of “soft on crime”? The Point always uses “pro-crime”.Few conservatives are willing to say it. Instead they’ll say ‘weak’ as if the Left is actually “weak” on border security, crime or mutilating your kids.
No, the Left is strong. Conservatives are weak. The Left fights for and implements what it believes in. And after a decade of massive transformation and values destruction, it apologizes for not having done more.
The media responded to Tuberville’s speech by screaming about racism. The truth hurts. Actually speaking it has real moral power.
David Horowitz was fighting against reparations when most conservatives were unwilling to speak out. The Center was fighting against the legitimization of crime when much of the movement had sold out to libertarian arguments about ‘decriminalization’.
It’s good to hear someone say it.
The old Air Force adage about being over the target is still true. Libs hate the truth and Daniel reminds them of it in every story. Keep pounding them Mr. Greenfield…. we in the hinterlands love it.
Your comment is apt. I had the same military assault reaction to Daniel’s article today. His words in this article have the abrupt, explosive power of a bomb. Daniel Greenfield is a dangerous adversary. God bless, protect and prosper him.
The bad news is that Tuberville cannot be touted as fearless and highly-ethical icon; he has a goodly number of very nasty skeletons in his cupboard.
Doubt me? Check it out for yourselves.
You accuse him, so have the honesty to name these “nasty skeletons” in Senator Tuberville’s cupboard. Otherwise, your comment cannot but be seen as libel.
I see many people say the Dirtbagocrat party is pro-crime on Newsmax and Real America’s voice but those are real news outlets like FPM. I wonder what proportion of conservative and Republican politicians overall admit the Dirtbagocrats are pro-crime? They’re even more pro-criminal than the Soviet Union was. Like the Politburo and streets of the USSR, the criminal scum in the Dirtbagocrat party and their thugs on the street don’t differentiate between public and private life, do they? They both disregard personal liberty. They’re both totalitarian forces in their own ways, if you ask me.
No pro-crime party should be allowed in America, much less be in power, but life isn’t fair and corruption provides an advantage against people who just try to earn an honest living and keep as much of what they earn and purchase as possible. The current Dirtbagocrat crime wave is huge and extremely violent and yes, blacks commit the majority of it. Only a real racist would fail to notice that or claim otherwise.
And “reparations” (race based redistribution of income by theft) is racist. No black person in America deserves my money or anybody else’s, especially not in perpetuity, as so called reparations would be. As if America needs even more interracial strife than the government has already fomented.
In my opinion.
Did you see the story of what Latino Democrats in LA were saying? Their real views came out 🙂
I did! Shocker, right? What contemptible scum. I’ve been dealing with people like them for most of my life.
Life is not fair, but government should be committed to impartiality and true justice. The word “fair” has been corrupted to mean “equitable” which has been corrupted to mean “equal” which has been corrupted to mean “sameness.” And the government’s real commitment is to empower itself by making us all the same and equally dependent upon it – a vassal state.
If you have never read William Sumner’s classic, What Social Classes Owe Each Other, you would enjoy it. It is free online, and very short. It has no racial overtones, but it gets to the core issue – what does one person owe to another and why? It is written in the style Greenfield uses today – very spare and explosive in logical power. Written in 1883. Here is a link:

Yes, only children and teens whine about what’s fair. And child like adults. You’re right about equity, equality and sameness. The Dirtbagocrats are trying to impose things most of them don’t really believe for power, and the RINOs submit to them, as usual.
Thanks for the link. 🙂
Thanks for the reference, Kynarion Hellenis. I read the Mises Institute’s newsletter regularly and find them a beacon of sanity in these loony times. This was a good article and I have ordered the book.
Excellent points. I often wonder how one should respond to the slanders and Big Lies in MSM.
Tangentially, as Jeff pointed out, the USSR was pro-crime to a certain extent, such as favoring ordinary criminals over political prisoners, and by forcing people into a life of crime to survive, gaining leverage over them, due to the threat of arrest and imprisonment, and forcing them to pay bribes to Apparatchiks.
Stalin was a bank robber. Whether you are liberating power or liberating funds it’s essentially the same grab. By any and all means given sufficiently Utopian ends.
We must deal with the GOP as it is not how it should be. Doing that the question of why the party of jailbreak won’t talk tough on crime answers itself.
Crime isn’t going to impact the billionaire lifestyle of Kushner or Trump at all. That’s why Kushner pushed Criminal Justice Forlorn and given the chance he’ll do more.
That’s why people can have their fanfare and vent their gripes at Trump rallies but in the end they’ll have less than they started with. Trump knows that.
I guess you missed the Gestapo raid on Mar a Lago, the NYC DA’s attack on Trump’s entire family, the two impeachments, Trump-Russia, Trump-Ukraine, etc.
What is the GOP doing about it?
The GOP as an organization is useless but you do know Trump admires the death penalty for violent crime and even drug trafficking, right? Trump didn’t accommodate crime in any way as President and his limited criminal justice reforms actually were just. His border control measures are legendary. His rallies are meant to replace RINOs with MAGA candidates.
And Trump isn’t responsible for any of Kushner’s bad proposals on criminal justice and I don’t know of any he implemented.
Crime can affect anybody, rich or poor, and OF COURSE Trump is EXTREMELY concerned about it.
The key to deciphering his posts is to read them as from an arch-Conservative, British style 🙂
So Trump is too liberal, etc. 🙂
I may be unfair, but several of my favorite writers were arch-Conservative Brits of the old school. Love those guys 🙂
I hardly know anything about post 1970s British Conservatives though.
That’s interesting. I don’t know anything about British arch conservatism. Another key is that Una has TDS and is definitely a woman.
One of my favorite authors is Professor Michael Arthur Lewis. Funny, I restarted my personal library from scratch when I moved here, as I didn’t have room to bring all my books. I ended up getting copies of most all his books. But now they are mostly unavailable! Close call, I almost missed out, didn’t have any of his books when I moved here.
His book I am currently reading “A Social History of the Navy 1793-1815” explains very well why the British Navy beat the French and Spanish Navies during that war period.
The criminals belong in prison. Period.
Including the ones who infiltrated the government. Those must be locked up first. They are the root cause of the problems in the US. The criminals and terrorists abused the democracy to get themselves into the positions where they don’t belong and are not capable of handling. All they care about is other criminals and terrorists.
It’s a formula for destruction. A massive social and national suicide.
With the US gone, the whole world will be under the control of low life criminals and terrorists. All culture, morality and history wiped off and replaced with primitive barbarism.
This sounds like the plot underlying A Clockwork Orange:
Emptying the prisons in order to refill them with political offenders.
And the Al Pacino version of “Scarface.” A classic. Anti commie too, which is odd because Oliver Stone wrote the screenplay before he went insane and went full commie. He’d written “Salvador,” too. Also excellent.
The left and the criminal element get along pretty good whether the lefties like to admit it or not. They have the same mindset, that, in the long run, will turn them into big time enemies. The feudal system is never far off when you have the mindsets of the left matching that of the criminal element.
The thing that I can see, watching how these mindsets of evil work so hard to bring about the things they care so utterly very little about, is how the Lord brings about the prophecies to fulfillment using the ones who most sincerely don’t want to see anything about God come to pass. The nice thing about that is, they don’t have a choice.
Feudalism indeed.
