When did Americans become so vile and vicious toward each other?
I’ve said before that a portal to Hell was opened when Obama was elected president in 2008. Since that election, politics have become utterly venomous. More and more, Americans wish death for those who disagree with them.
Even after a tenured professor was fired for maintaining that the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting was a false flag, those who believe the official narrative are not satisfied, but send hate mail to the professor, wishing bodily harm and death to him and his children. (See “Hate mail sent to Prof. James Tracy for being a Sandy Hook skeptic”)
Now, a well-known TV personality openly calls for killing the militia protesters in Oregon.
In December, Ammon Bundy and armed militia members gathered in Burns, Oregon (about 280 miles southeast of Portland), to protest the jailing of local ranchers Dwight and Steven Hammond. (Ammon is the son of Nevada rancher Clive Bundy who had an armed standoff with federal authorities in 2014 over grazing rights. That matter was settled peacefully, after the Bureau of Land Management backed off and left the scene.)
Dwight Hammond, 73, and his son, Steven, 46, are due to go to jail for 5 years for lighting fires on federal properties in 2001 and 2006 in order to scale back invasive plants and to protect their private lands from wildfires.
After a peaceful rally in Burns, Ammon Bundy and the militia took over a facility at the Mahleur National Wildlife Refuge near Burns.
Montel Williams is a former daytime TV talk-show host who now does infomercials.
John S. Roberts reports for Young Conservatives, Jan. 3, 2015, that in a series of Twitter messages on Jan. 2 and 3, Williams called for a “shoot to kill” treatment of Bundy and the militia. Here are his tweets:
It appears #OregonUnderAttack by a bunch of undereducated terrorist buffoons who follow #ClivenBundy shall we send them to meet #ISIS.
Totally fine with a massive use of deadly force in Oregon to take out Ammon Bundy.
Then let’s give them some – put this down using National Guard with shoot to kill orders.
And even after other Twitter posters reacted to Williams with outrage, he did not back off but justified his call for killing the protesters with this message at 10:34 PM, Jan. 2, 2015:
I said what I said re Oregon tonight bc these clowns are PURPOSELY endangering LE and threatening armed conflict (by implication) – NOT OK
The next morning, Williams redoubled what he tweeted the day before, with this message at 8:12 AM, Jan. 3, 2015:
I’m calling on Govt to end terrorist siege perpetrated by a bunch of hillbilly American Taliban #OregonUnderAttack
And a second message at 9:22 AM, Jan. 3, 2015:
Totally fine with a massive use of deadly force in Oregon to take out Ammon Bundy. #OregonUnderAttack.”
The social fabric of America is not just frayed, it is torn asunder. No country can continue like this for long.
