Thought crime? Or just an immoral thought?

The latest huge talking point on the left is that Cliven Bundy is a racist.

This is supposed to mean what, precisely?

The left considers everyone who isn’t on the left as being a racist, right? So why would it matter whether some old crank who is involved in a high profile argument with the BLM is or is not a racist?

It obviously matters to someone, but it no more matters to me than whether someone dislikes Jews, homos, or Muslims.

I mean, much as I disagree with certain opinions, I don’t believe in the concept of thought crimes.

I agreed with a statement I saw the other day that “disagreement is not, itself, harm or hate.

Nor is it a crime.  Bundy is free to think or say whatever he wants. Is that so complicated?

    The is a standard leftist elitist tactic to facilitate a redirection of attention from a subject area filled with weakness for them if approached rationally. Just remember that Bundy was /is opposing unconstitutional federal oversight of massive land acreage through the BLM and other federal agencies who also maintain significant armed personnel engaged in unconstitutional local domestic police actions properly belonging to states.

    racism must be a classical value ask donald sterling or his old rich friends who still call african-americans shines! mormon bundy’s view on black people come strait out of the book of mormons that call black people “filth” and worse! But didn’t the mormon church change the racist asks. yeah when carter administration went to court to take away church’s tax exempt status for being racist institution the head of the mormon church got a revelation from the god from the planet moron that blacks were ok! about 36 hours before they were striped of their tax exempt status costing church billions of dollars. funny how fast god can wor when he has to!

    One day conservatives will finally point us to where the “Freedom to not be judged” amendment resides in the constitution. One day.

    His comments were about as racist as Michelle Obama’s. All he said was that it would be nice if black people had more jobs.
