One year after 10/7 attacks and Democrat-run states have let antisemitism fester

 

[...] It seemed like antisemitism was festering all over the country.

 

But a closer look showed that it wasn't, actually, happening everywhere, it was very specifically happening in places primarily run by Democrats.  It's not that antisemitism can't exist in red areas.  It can, it does.  Vandalism, verbal harassment, even physical assault can happen in Republican-led places.  But the occurrence is far rarer and the real difference is the consequences.

According to the Anti Defamation League (ADL) "The states with the highest number of incidents were California (1,266), New York (1,218), New Jersey (830), Florida (463) and Massachusetts (440)."  Four of those states are blue states.  In my red home state of Florida, we had approximately the same number of incidents as Massachusetts while having about three times the population and a third of the incidents of New York despite having over 2 million more people.  [...]

To Save Time, Chicago Nightly News Just Going To Report Names Of People Not Shot That Day

 

CHICAGO, IL — Editorial staff of the Chicago Nightly News reportedly discovered a brilliant hack to save time and energy at their jobs: simply reporting the names of the Chicago citizens who were not shot throughout the day.

"Tonight, we are happy to report that, um, Dave Jenkins and Carol Smith have not been shot," said one reporter.  "Aaannnd, yeah.  I guess that's it.  We're done here!"  [...]

Looks like the Mayor of Denver is planning on protecting illegal immigrants, so maybe that is something.

 

Denver Mayor Promises Armed Resistance to ICE

 

The vast majority of law enforcement is local. Johnston is doubtful that federal forces would raid Colorado to round up immigrants, even if Trump tried to mount a national crackdown.

 

“I do not believe that our governor is going to let them use our [Colorado] National Guard at the state level,” he said. “Unless they were planning on bringing national guards mobilized from Texas or Alabama to come invade Colorado, I don’t know where they would find the forces to begin to do that.

 

“And that seems to me like a very, very bad idea from start to finish that no reasonable American would support,” he said.

The mayor also takes heart that the people of Denver — not just the administration — would likely resist a mass deportation effort from federal forces. 

 

“More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston said. “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right?” You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them.”
