Part of the allure of people coming to America is the patriotic enthusiasm enjoyed by citizens. The bedrock of freedom created by the founding fathers inspires people to support America over all other countries.
Freedom of speech in America is constitutionally protected, and people can say almost anything they want. Aside from inciting violence or crying, “Fire!,” in a crowded movie theater, Americans can say vulgar things against one another and it’s all part of the mix of personalities.
But another inciteful phrase has spread like fire recently, and it calls for the destruction of the freedoms Americans enjoy. This despicable phrase, accompanied by burning the U.S. flag, has even been protected by members of the U.S. Congress and they are getting exposed.
From The Daily Wire:
Numerous House Democrats in the nation’s capital refused to condemn burning the American flag and chanting “death to America” when confronted by a reporter this week.The questions from the reporter came in response to far-Left protesters on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City this week holding a pro-Palestinian demonstration that disrupted traffic.
“Anti-Israel protesters blocking the Brooklyn Bridge were burning the American flag and chanting ‘Death to America,’” the reporter said to Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA). “Do you support that type of protest? Congresswoman, do you support burning the American flag and chanting Death to America?”
Pressley wouldn’t acknowledge the reporter and refused to answer the question. Her response was a loud and clear slap in the face of patriotic Americans.
She wasn’t the only U.S. political leader to dodge similar questions about people calling for the destruction of America. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was later asked the same questions, particularly if she thought the chants sounded like pro-Palestinian or anti-American rants.
Ocasio-Cortez stumbled on her answer and said she would have to check on the chants herself.
Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) was also confronted with whether she condemned the actions of protesters blocking roadways while burning the flag and chanting, “death to America.”
A staffer for Porter repeatedly interrupted the reporter and said the Democrat had to move on to another appointment. Porter refused to answer the question.
These so-called congressional leaders made very bold statements by their refusal to answer questions or condemn calls to destroy America. Their silence was deafening as it screamed in unison to the protesters’ chants.
Key Takeaways:
- Democrats refused to condemn raging rants by protesters calling for America’s destruction.
- Protesters burned the American flag and chanted, “death to America,” while blocking roads.
- Multiple radical leftist Democrats scurried away when confronted about the protesters.
