Domestic terrorists
On Monday’s commentary page, I saw yet another propaganda piece trying to make Trump supporters look like they are domestic terrorists.
I don’t know if you guys have been paying attention, but Black Lives Matter does a ton of looting and rioting and are prone to very violent acts, and it’s all on video.
And I don’t know if you know this, but the founder of Black Lives Matter owns four mansions.
I really wish you guys would actually get into investigative journalism at the very minimum. Black Lives Matter is a racist organization that has been proven on hundreds of occasions to be very violent.
Know the real domestic terrorists.

Most of the time, parents seem to have no idea their child is about to become another mass murderer in one of our schools. Sometimes it happens because they didn’t take the time to see it in their children.
But in this case, the parents did know.
James and Jennifer Crumbly have just been charged with four counts each of manslaughter.
James Crumbly buys a Sig Sauer on Nov. 26, and his son was with him at the gun store.
The same day, Ethan Crumbly, his 15-year-old son, posted photos of himself with the gun, saying, “I just got my new beauty today, a Sig Sauer 9mm.”
Jennifer Crumbly posted a photo the next day with the caption, “Mom and son testing out sons new Christmas present.”
Just a week before, Ethan was caught trying to find ammunition online at school, and his mother was contacted.
Jennifer, Ethan’s mom, did not respond to the school, and instead texted her son saying, “LOL, you have to learn to not get caught.”
On Nov. 30, Ethan’s teacher saw a drawing on Ethan’s desk showing people getting shot, with a quote saying, “the thoughts won’t stop, help me” and “my life is useless” and “the world is dead.”
Both parents were called into the school, and were told to find him counseling within 48 hours.
They refused to take him home, and talked the school into letting him return to class.
They didn’t ask him where his gun was, and the school had no idea he owned a gun, because he is 15-year-old. What normal 15-year-old owns a semi-automatic handgun?
It was in his backpack the whole time.
A few hours later, when news of an active shooter made the news, his mother texted him saying, “Ethan, don’t do it.”
After the shooting incident, his father called the police, saying the pistol had been stolen, in order to protect himself from negligence or prosecution.
Both parents knew Ethan had issues, and they gave him a powerful loaded gun.
Ethan killed four people, and wounded seven others, who all could have died as well, because he tried to kill 11 people that day.
His parents enabled this to happen.
This is going on all over America, and it needs to stop.
Enough with thoughts and prayers — they are excuses for the selfish and uncaring. Children are dying, so start acting pro-life, instead of pretending to be.
