Oh look the door:
Must have missed the cracks.
In any event, being a right-wing media personality apparently gets you special treatment: a D.C. police spokesperson told the Washington Post that Carlson’s block would be “under special attention” for “as long as needed,” and today, police said they were investigating the incident as a hate crime because of “anti-political bias.”
Carlson, for all of his hemming and hawing about the “elites”—despite the fact that he’s a multi-millionaire cable news host—sure seems to be enjoying the privileges of an elite. Do you know how hard it is to get the cops to investigate actual hate crimes as hate crimes? It took a week for the feds to confirm that they were investigating a possible hate crime in the Kroger shooting in Kentucky last month, in which a white suspect allegedly killed two black people and told a bystander that “whites don’t shoot whites.”
and this:
Carlson, apropos of nothing, thought it was extremely funny when someone sent George Soros a pipe bomb and is a huge skeptic about hate crimes.
and even here:
Anyway, like clockwork, a whole slew of media and media-adjacent people took this opportunity to defend Carlson’s right to go on television every weeknight and demonize entire groups of marginalized people without consequence:
and this is the way I feel about it:
No one should physically harm Carlson, or his family, or even his door. But the idea that he should be free to peddle white fear on his sizable platform without ever being even mildly inconvenienced is one that isn’t grounded in reality. Actions have consequences. Words have consequences. If Carlson wants to eat dinner in peace, he should maybe just, I dunno, stop being a racist.
But then again you guys have morals???????? I call BS.
