While I was a conservative by age 12, for some time
thereafter I viewed liberalism as most do, as just another ideology. Sure, it
was an irritating ideology, but an ideology nonetheless. But then something
happened. I don’t quite remember if I was 20, 21, or 22, but some experiences
in my life and much pondering of the issues and the human condition led to an
insight. It hit me like a bolt of lightning:

Liberalism is what evil is masquerading as in our time.

I won’t go into the labyrinthine details of the matter here,
but it was a life-changing epiphany that ultimately led to a transition from
secular-conservative/libertarian to man of faith and walking, talking
anachronism. And it made me realize that liberals aren’t just misguided, which
they are — they’re also in bed with evil.

This is apparent in much of what they do, and the support
that murdering fugitive Christopher Dorner is receiving
from the left is a good example. It doesn’t matter that Dorner is clearly
an unhinged man blaming others for his own failures; it doesn’t matter that he
shot innocent people; it doesn’t matter that the only sin of one of those
innocents, Monica Quan, was being the daughter of a man who Dorner thought
didn’t represent him adequately during an LAPD review process; and that
another’s only sin was agreeing to become Quan’s fiancé. None of this matters
because Dorner possesses all the qualifications of a leftist zero hero: he’s
pro-gun control, admires other zeroes such as Barack Obama and Piers Morgan,
and is anti-cop.

Thus are there Facebook pages dedicated to Dorner, such as “We Are All
Chris Dorner” (if this means all of the left, it’s a tenable theory), whose
creator calls the killer “the victim of a manhunt and smear campaign.” One
poster at the page named Aaron Hughes writes, “this guy is a hero.” Another page is “We
Support Christopher Dorner,” with postings such as this one from a James
McCarthy: “I support you and good hunting ,, tou [sic] are a true patriot.” This
is just a small sampling, mind you.

There are also pictures, with captions such as:

                                                          
SO WE’LL HATE HIM

Because
he can take it. Because he’s not our hero. He’s a silent guardian, a watchful
protector. A dark knight.

 

Then there’s:

                                                                    
WANTED

                                                
FOR TAKING OUT THE TRASH   

Once again, this is but a sampling.

Of course, we’ll hear that these are just “exceptions,” but
the left has a funny knack for turning exceptions into the rule. And as far as
patterns go, it certainly is the rule. Just consider many leftists’ response to
a very cute pre-election video
of a six-year-old boy giving ten reasons not to vote for Barack Obama. Here’s a
handful of their YouTube postings (excerpted from a PatriotUpdate.com article):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here is one I have to print so it can be cleaned up (as
much as liberals’ messes can be):

GO

WERE MY F****** KID I WOULD BE GIVING THE BIGGEST S**T KICKING OF A LIFETIME
YOU LITTLE GOOD GOD FEARING GOOD FOR F****** NOTHING F******
****SUCKER!!!!!!

I
want to reiterate that we’re talking about a cute, innocent six-year-old child
here. And, again, we’ll be told that such sentiments aren’t representative of
the left, but are they really all that unrepresentative of the passionate left?

Note
that liberals often use children to spread their message; everything is “for
the children”…and by the children and of the children. Obama just surrounded
himself with them when signing gun-control executive orders and had little
tykes reading statements. We had to watch in 2008 as kids marched for him in
videos and sang “Barack Hussein Obama, mm, mm, mm!” But did you ever see
conservatives post vile sentiments anytime, anywhere about how they wanted to abuse
or kill these children? I spend many hours on the Internet and have never seen
such a thing. Of course, a leftist may unearth an example — and I wouldn’t be surprised
if such a thing were manufactured NBC style — but the point is that exceptions
on the right actually are just that. Exceptions on the left are everywhere.

They’re
in the history books, too. Maximilien Robespierre was an ardent
opponent of the death penalty; that is, until he and his fellow French
revolutionaries took power and he used the guillotine to murder thousands. The
communists in the Soviet Union murdered at least 20 million and the Maoists in
China approximately 70 million. And the Khmer Rouge exceptions in Cambodia
exterminated one third of their nation’s population between 1975 and ‘79. As
for anticipated futures, the people Obama ally Bill Ayers was breaking bread
with theorized that they may have to kill 25 million “capitalists” in order to
complete a communist revolution in America. Hey, you have to break a few eggs
to make an omelet, right? 

This
is why I’ve long had a different take, a philosophical one, on sociopathy. I
believe that it may simply be the result of taking liberalism — or, to be
precise, the relativism central to it — to its logical conclusion. After all,
if what we call right and wrong is simply man’s preferences and thus doesn’t
really exist, it makes no sense to have a conscience. For there is nothing to
be conscientious about.

What
is for sure, however, is that modern liberalism is moral dysfunction.
