Reader Comments

“I’ve always supported a three-strike rule. … We should treat schooling as we ought to treat U.S. citizenship: a precious gift we shouldn’t give away to idiots.”

Re: The Attempt to Terminate Trump — What We Still Don’t Know

“Great analysis, as always. I would just add that were a Democrat the target, or the target otherwise fit ‘the right narrative,’ we would know everything down to the shooter’s shoe size and favorite ice cream.” —Michigan

“Cheatle was obviously a DEI appointment, which just proves once again how deadly that whole DEI mentality is to our national security. It has been infused in all the federal law enforcement agencies and, worst of all, our military.” —Pennsylvania

“We will probably never know. How long since the Kennedy and MLK assassinations? There will always be some conspiracies associated with them.” —Illinois

Re: Prosecute the Clinton Russian-Collusion ‘Grand Conspiracy’ Cabal

“This was a great summation of the complicated deep state offenses. There should be three special cells waiting at the fed supermax in Colorado marked ‘Clinton, Comey, and Brennan.’ Unfortunately, they are unlikely to ever be held accountable.” —Massachusetts

“Brennan, Clinton, Comey. et al. should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But despite the fact these Demos and others like James Clapper have been lying under oath pertaining to their actions, does anyone actually believe they will ever face a day in jail?” —California

“The photo caption for his great article should be ‘The Faces of Fibbers.’ They are unmitigated liars, one and all!” —Illinois

Re: Biased Media on Trans Issues

“From Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland: ‘When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’ That’s the upside-down logic that leftists use when they apply pronouns to obscure the truth about anything, including the biological sex of ‘trans men.’ Disgusting.” —California

Re: IRS Allows Politics in Church

“Perhaps the most important consequence is that churches can now, without fear of the IRS, point out evil actions by government officials and encourage members to vote responsibility as an expression of love for neighbors. ‘Usual channels’ doesn’t mean they can take out newspaper ads regarding a candidate.” —Minnesota

“Even if it is now legal for churches to endorse candidates, I think it is a terrible idea for them to do so. Jesus said, ‘My kingdom is not of this world.’ Churches should always speak clearly about moral issues. I have no problem with a church teaching unambiguously about God’s design of male and female and what that implies for things like sports. But it would be a mistake for a church to say, ‘Vote for X because that candidate supports keeping men out of women’s sports.’” —California

Re: Reinstating School Discipline

“School discipline has been an issue for decades. I’ve always supported a three-strike rule. First offense: warning/counseling. Second offense: one-week suspension. Third offense: semester expulsion. After that, reinstatement should be based on committee recommendation and would likely mean restarting a year behind. Beyond that … well, there’s the alternative schooling and GED route. We should treat schooling as we ought to treat U.S. citizenship: a precious gift we shouldn’t give away to idiots.” —Oklahoma

“My daughter used to teach at a public school in the Bronx. She said some kids really did not know that some behavior is wrong. (If someone had a nice book bag and you wanted it, you just hit them over the head and take it … nothing wrong there.) Teachers were not allowed to discipline, and parents didn’t teach the kids anything. So where and how are they supposed to learn to live in a civilized world?” —Pennsylvania

“Yay! Schools are completely out of hand these days, and sometimes the parents are worse than the child! It’s about time someone stuck up for the adults who teach and administer the schools. If parents won’t teach their child to behave, then the child (and parents) should face the consequences.” —Colorado

Re: Appeals Court Throws Out Conviction of Hillary Clinton Memer

“When lawfare is aimed at a private individual, there are vast financial costs to defend against the state which has no financial care. Here we have someone who was acquitted of a nonexistent crime but still needs to pay the lawyers while the prosecutor who brought the charges gets paid for this political farce. This type of persecution will continue until there are personal consequences to those who purposely twist the law to infringe upon our guaranteed rights.” —Indiana

Re: June Gender Cult Month Grade — FAIL

“Thankfully, as Alexander notes, ‘So-called Pride Month this year was … not so much.’ Reasonable people have long wondered what exactly the Rainbow Mafia is so proud of. Proverbs 16:18 affirms that ‘Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.’ (RSV) It would appear that the vast majority of people have grown tired of the ‘haughty spirit’ and inordinate, perverse influence of a small minority of loud aberrants promoting their agenda. Many corporate and business leaders, and even some politicos, have also recognized the truth and responded appropriately. The return to traditional American values, Judeo-Christian beliefs, and common sense are long overdue and provide hope for the future our nation.” —Florida

Re: Demos: Trump Killed Children With Texas Flash Flood

“There is a special place in hell for the Demos who would politicize this tragedy, using the loss of lives as a platform for their Trump-deranged accusations.” —Texas

Re: Profiles of Valor: Graham Hoffman (KCFD)

“Thank you for this tribute to our friend and coworker, Graham Hoffman. Thank you for making sure his service, and the circumstances of his murder, are not forgotten.” —Missouri

“Who was the judge that released this woman after she assaulted a police officer days earlier? Who is the prosecutor that didn’t fight the low bond? We hear this scenario repeated too many times all over the country: a violent assailant gets released from jail and then commits a more heinous crime. Graham’s blood is on their hands.” —Arizona

Re: We Are One Human Race United by Sacrifice and Love

“You are by far one of the best writers at The Patriot Post. Your articles are so inspiring. I will continue to read the Post because of you and a couple of others who inspire me.” —Alaska
