Mike Pottage inserted a notable amount of racism, and a bit of homophobia, in his April 11 WorldNetDaily column lashing out at Democrats over crime and DEI initiatives:
Americans need to realize the crime “rate” is going to fall suddenly and dramatically. True, it is not safe to walk the streets of America, day or night. Mass lootings and casual theft are rampant as are carjackings and house stealing.
But political control by the Democratic Party over the enforcement of the state’s penal codes is going to solve the “crime” problem.
It’s all about the numbers. If the arrest is not made, there is no crime statistic. If the arrest is reduced to the issuance of an appearance ticket, there is no crime statistic. If the local district attorney refuses to enforce specific laws because the legislature will not pass legislation making the act legal, there is no crime statistic. The elimination of bail eliminates crime statistics. Imagine the crime rate if we arrested the invaders and charged them with violating the law!
Democrats already are starting to declare that their vision of social justice is eliminating crime.
Before many common crimes became “socially acceptable” to ruling-class Democrats, the nation’s prisons and jail populations were dominated by blacks. So, the Democrats declared from every rooftop and every podium this population disparity was the result of a racially biased justice system, based upon racist law, and those arguments have now spun into the claim American was founded by racists for racists.
Evidence to the contrary is overwhelming, and there is zero evidence to support this attack upon America – but this theme is now, by executive order of President Biden, included in the mission statement of every agency, bureau and department of the federal government. The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion order supersedes the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
Along with race, Biden’s DEI statement included the Democrat Party [sic] platform plank on homosexuality. Not only did his executive order destroy the Constitution and the Bill of Rights as the guiding principle of this nation, it made clear the government would not do business with anyone who violated its DEI intent.
We are on a path to make criticism of DEI a criminal act.
Pottage didn’t explain the reasoning behind his belief that most criminals are black, or why he thinks all non-white people are incompetent people who otherwise wouldn’t be employed without DEI initiatives. Nevertheless, he concluded by ranting:
This is the new U.S. government decreed by executive order of President Joe Biden. If he prevails, just imagine what history will record as it places the name Biden among the most hated and destructive dictators of all human history. And just imagine what history will record when it compares the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights to the Biden decree on DEI, and asks, “Why didn’t the Americans stop this madness?”
Why is it “madness” to not discriminate against people? Pottage doesn’t explain.
