It\u2019s the ultimate cliche given the transparent bias in the news industry but imagine for a second that a Republican put these tweets out.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Democrat Mayor issues a \u201ccall to arms\u201dbased on made-up fear mongering. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Bh8PF4Cr6c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/Bh8PF4Cr6c<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Abigail Marone \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@abigailmarone) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/abigailmarone\/status\/1523853056168845314?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">May 10, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Definitionally, a \u201ccall to arms\u201d has a very specific meaning. \u201cArms\u201d means weapons, and Lightfoot is calling to use them to enact a political outcome. There\u2019s a word for that, too, but no doubt the Chicago mayor will claim she meant her tweets in the most peaceful way possible. That makes no sense, though, given the language used, but that will be the excuse, and that\u2019s if the media even press her to give one.<\/p>\n<p>But let\u2019s talk about the implications here before the above-mentioned excuse is publicly made. How do you \u201cfight\u201d the Supreme Court? It\u2019s not an elected body so voting is out, and there is no scenario where two-thirds of the Senate chooses to remove a sitting Justice. That\u2019s what makes Lightfoot\u2019s comments so egregious. She\u2019s not only using violent rhetoric, but she\u2019s doing so in a situation where the only practical way to carry out her statements <em>is<\/em> violence.<\/p>\n<p>So while she\u2019ll claim she didn\u2019t mean it the way it sounds, exactly how did she mean it then? How should people \u201cfight\u201d a non-political body full of lifetime appointments? With what arms? I\u2019d love to think she\u2019ll be made to answer those questions, but she won\u2019t be.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans can only look on and shake our heads. We are old enough to remember when Sarah Palin was accused of inciting violence because she put targets on a congressional map denoting vulnerable districts. It took years before that story died down. More recently, Donald Trump has been accused of inciting violence because he used the word \u201cfight\u201d in regard to the 2020 election, even while also saying to peacefully protest.<\/p>\n<p>Lightfoot will not get the same treatment, though. Like Bernie Sanders, who essentially accused Republicans of trying to kill people regarding healthcare spending, she\u2019ll be assigned no responsibility when some crazy person takes her up on her offer.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday evening, radical abortion supporters <a href=\"https:\/\/redstate.com\/nick-arama\/2022\/05\/10\/doj-is-missing-in-action-as-leftists-march-on-justice-alitos-home-n562322\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">marched<\/a> on Samuel Alito\u2019s home. The country is in a dangerous spot, and you\u2019ve got loons like Lightfoot giving a \u201ccall to arms\u201d in response. It\u2019s insane, but I don\u2019t think the rhetoric gets any less volatile from here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Words matter, right?
