Why do libs seem to want to protect perverts?

Question

Liberals at their core have no sense of true north. They can't determine right from wrong, good from evil, and in this case even help from hurt. Worse yet - they don't care. The hardness of their hearts towards the victim is not only apparent in their actions, but the mockery of their words adds insult to injury.

Hence why Geraldo Rivera would defend the concealing of an illegal alien's identity from the feds - even though he had been indicted on 31 counts of child rape, before executing three college kids in Newark this summer.

ruth...I respectfully disagree with YOU...I think its legitamate question BECAUSE of the children..our kids are being exposed to perversions BECAUSE everyone is afraid to "question" it when someone feels the need to tell our kids that perversions are "just an alternative lifestyle"...BS!!!...I'll question it, and I'll question why those like Holrado would try to protect perverts...

Answer 1

The reason Libs want to protect perverts has to do with a really simple observation about human psychology.

Why are drug addicts notorious for trying to get everyone hooked like they are? Their feelings of inadequacy and deep-seated disgust for their own behavior compels them to try and get everyone around them to use drugs too, so they don't feel like such an out of control loser. If everyone seems to be taking drugs, then their conscience doesn't bother them so much. It's a lot like when you go out to dinner, but no one wants to be the only one to order dessert. They have feelings of guilt for over-eating. But, if everyone orders dessert, then it becomes a natural event, so you don't feel like a pig.

In the Liberal mind, all these feelings of self-loathing prey upon their subconscious, so they instinctively begin to defend the most indefensible behaviors as "normal". If everyone considers NAMBLA perverts to be just another lifestyle, or unwed mothers to be a perfectly natural expense that everyone should pay for, then the Liberal gets to feel much better about himself. By comparison, the Liberal gets to feel he is no worse than everyone else.

See? It's really quite simple. That's how the Liberal mind works.

Liberals often suffer from a feeling of self-loathing, just like when you hear the immature rants of a damaged psyche such as Al Franken. Why do you think so many comedianes are Liberals? It's due to feelings of inadequacy. They use humor to mask their pain. Same for actors. They don't feel their real self measures up, so they like living in a fantasy world where they can be anything they want to be.

Now, I'm not going to parrot Michael Savage who said Liberalism is a mental disorder, but....

Answer 2

I can't stand Geraldo Rivera. I can't believe anyone would stand up for an illegal, who has done those horrid things to a poor child, and then went on to kill those three students. But this is from the man who faked a broken arm to get into the hospital in Blacksburg after the Virginia Tech Shootings. I know journalists want the story, but come on, those kids had just been put through horrors they should not have seen.

Katie Couric got the cell phone number for the brother-in-law of Jarrett Lane, a VT shooting victim, and called all the time. A writer for the New York Times kept trying to sneak into Jarrett's funeral, even when there were signs saying "No reporters please". Jarrett was from a town of less than 3000, all the cops had grown up there, so they knew the residents.

It's so sad and so disgusting. I have no respect for these and many other journalists anymore. I saw so much disrespect for peoples privacy and need for healing by the people who are supposed to bring us the news.

Answer 3

I think the Town hall editorialist is misinterpreting the situation. He doesn't cite any references so I can't check exactly what he is basing his opinion on; but here's what I've learned with a little research.

I can't believe I'm doing this, because I dislike both O'Reilly and Rivera (neither is a real journalist and both are real blowhards) But, in an interview the two discussed the situation and were heartily agreeing.

By the way Rivera works for Fox - which is a notoriously inaccurate and inflammatory new source. I would double check anything reported on that network.

The suspect who is the subject of all this debate is an alleged child rapist who has now been accused of murdering 3 college students.

Here's the story: College students were murdered. A suspect was brought before the judge and bail was set. He had a $150k bail for the child rape case and $300k for the murder charge. You would think this means he has to fork out 10% of 450K (which is how bail works). But the judge 'combines' the bails and doesn't require him to pay out any more money...so basically the guy is out on $15,000 bail. Which is completely outrageous. The judge knew the defendant was an illegal alien. This judge has a lot of explaining to do. I'm sure he won't be serving for very much longer.

As far as I could see Rivera was totally agreeing w/ O'Reilly about the case...this is about the judge who knew the defendent was illegal, accused of one terrible crime and he should have been smart enough to suspect that he could commit more.

I'm not sure what the Town hall guy is referring to. As far as I could see Rivera was on the right track - the judge is at fault here for allowing the guy back on the street. I didn't see any evidence of Rivera protecting the guy because he was illegal.

Keep in mind, Rivera (as well as O'Reilly) is an entertainer first and a journalist second. He sells advertising when he is controversial and generates letters and emails.

As to the peeping tom at the train station: Depending on where you live there may not be a law against doing what he is doing or there may. Personally I think we have plenty of laws that make it clear that this sort of thing is not acceptable. The police and justice system have their hands full trying to deal with real criminals (like the one discussed above). The people in the community should post pics at all the stations of the guy and his car with a warning of who he is and what he is doing. I'm sure that would scare him off. I think people should take more responsibility for their communities.

I don't see this as a liberal vs conservative issue. It is a citizen's responsibility issue.

Answer 4

Some perverts deserve the same amout of protection that you do. Consider homosexuals who do no harm to other citizens. The perverts who are raping and killing deserve a bullet and an unmarked grave.
Geraldo is only presenting a position that was written by someone else, and it was probavly intended to provoke the exact reaction that you display. It's a diversion from the real issues that should be getting the air time given to the tool they call Geraldo.

Answer 5

Geraldo Rivera disgusts me. Hes a loudmouth fool and Im sick of his antics on FOX.

Most people dont understand that liberalism is sincerely fighting for subjective morality so THEY can take the authority of God and define what they think is right and wrong.

Answer 6

I don't think that this a 'liberal' issue at all-It is a common-sense issue.If those who are more inclined to think in this manner are to be labeled 'liberals',then label away.It is a specious argument at best to say that all of one group is one way or another-The broad brush never works.I think that in an effort to protect everyone's rights,cases like this fall through the cracks.Clearly,this guy should have been incarcerated before he committed his latest crime.In trying to keep our diplomatic record 'clean',thugs like this sneak through.Cooperation between our government agencies has got to get better,and we must get tougher on crime,whether domestic or foreign.Period.

Answer 7

I hate your question. No offense.

And I'm a Constitutional Conservative. But your question seems unfair to me.

I think your question is about Geraldo Rivera and even Liberals get to choose what they watch on television. And Geraldo gets to choose what he puts on television.

It's still a free country.

ADDED: We don't really disagree. I just don't like the form of the question. My right :)

ADDED AGAIN: Well, then let me tell you about some liberal attorneys who feel exactly the way I do about this issue--got a few hours? Don't judge political points of view in this manner. Yes, lawyering is living (and dying) by the sword. Be glad there are some of us willing to eat the sword for the peace of our nation. Seriously.

Answer 8

Geraldo is an idiot. Some genius high up in the Army decided he would have been a welcome addition to our unit when I was in Iraq. He decided to report on our exact position and our plan of attack for the whole world to see. I guess that comes from getting hit in the head with too many chairs.

Answer 9

Why do we lump everyone under labels as all being one way or another? I'm offended that because I have a liberal bent toward some issues that people also assume I'm not a patriot, that I don't have morals, that I don't know "right from wrong." Where do you sit that you think you know these things about me?

Answer 10

Geraldo has to keep his Hispanic creds. He has bought multiple radio stations, which an Anglo couldn't do, because of his "minority" status. I don't understand why Fox employs him as he never was a serious journalist.
