Tuesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from John Daniel Davidson, Shaun King, AOC, and more.

Insight: “Let the laws be clear, uniform and precise; to interpret laws is almost always to corrupt them.” —Voltaire (1694-1778)

For the record: “It is soft bigotry to excuse lawlessness on the basis of race. If you regard all people equal in God’s eyes, then you don’t assess their conduct differently based on their race. Nor do you give white social justice liberals a pass because they claim to be championing minorities.” —David Limbaugh

Upright: “Let’s be clear, the mobs pulling down statues make no distinction between Confederate and Union, slave-trader or abolitionist, secessionist or pro-Union. They make no distinction between American, Spanish, or Cherokee. They do not care if the monument was erected in the nineteenth century or the twenty-first. … Conservatives should reject the entire notion that tearing down monuments, whether to Confederates or conquistadors, can ever be considered salutary or even conservative in any meaningful sense. To do so would be to accept the left’s corrupted view of American history, which demands we destroy all reminders of our sinful past.” —John Daniel Davidson

Alpha jackass: “Yes, I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down. They are a form of white supremacy. Always have been. In the Bible, when the family of Jesus wanted to hide, and blend in, guess where they went? EGYPT! Not Denmark. Tear them down.” —Black Lives Matter activist Shaun King

Non compos mentis: “Latinos are black. … We have to have conversations around ‘colorism,’ and we have to have conversations around the African and indigenous roots from which we come and how that’s reflected in systems of power.” —Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

And last… “The media has spent more time reporting on President Trump’s rally in Tulsa than a 3 year old boy who was shot & killed in Chicago. That should tell you everything you need to know about their priorities.” —Charlie Kirk
