There is a meme that I am seeing developed. It goes like this, “The students a Berkeley were not responsible for the terrible violence. They were there for a peaceful protest and some outside agitators stirred things up. The students are innocent bystanders.” I even read that a Clinton crony was saying it was a plot by Trump to make the left look bad.
Sheesh.
First of all the students were there to try to stop someone they disagreed with from speaking. They are part of the problem. It may have been a party for them but it was a brown-shirt party and they are just as involved as the guys bussed in to do the heavy lifting. The anarchists would not have a mob to protect their identity if the useful idiots did not show up and think it was all fun and games.
Let’s paraphrase a bit of nonsense from the left, “What if they had a protest and nobody came?” It would be easy to arrest the rioters then, wouldn’t it?

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
