Liberal media's outrage inconsistent

In August, a homosexual activist marched into the Family Research Council (FRC) headquarters in Washington D.C., and pulled a gun. The first person he saw was a security guard, whom he shot in the arm.

The FRC is a Christian-based, socially conservative organization that strongly opposes gay marriage and abortion and says it advocates faith, family and freedom in public policy and public opinion. This conservative organization is a powerful lobbying group on those causes, testifying before Congress and reviewing legislation.

The gunman said to that guard it was nothing personal — “it was not about you, it was what this place stands for.”

The gunman told the security guard “I don’t like your politics.” That lone gunman volunteered at the homosexual activist DC Center for the LGBT Community.

Amazing the liberal media was largely silent on this event. If a gunman went to NARAL headquarters, America’s premier abortion lobby group, or GLAAD homosexual rights organization headquarters, or the headquarters of the National Organization of Women, which is a big feminist organization, and shot someone there and stated “Nothing personal, I just hate your politics,” the liberal media would hyperventilate and scream from the mountain tops. Chris Matthews from MSNBC, the New York Times and the CBC would think the world ended.

If a Christian entered a LGBT community lobby centre and shot and wounded someone there and stated that he hates their politics, it would be global news for days. The liberal media never hesitates to connect a shooting of an abortionist with the pro-life movement but never connected this shooting with the homosexual movement.

To the liberal media, when the gunman is a left-winger, he is a lone lunatic, and that’s only if the story makes the news at all. If the gunman is a right-winger, that same liberal media would label that lone lunatic as being somehow influenced by some conservative group and being part of a broad conspiracy and of course would also publicize the story as newsworthy everywhere to the fullest extent.
