So much for solidarity.
Oh, please. Solidarity with your fellow countrymen? Coming from the mouth of a DUmp democrat? Spare me, Eva...
Before long the criticism of Bostonians as cowering wimps emerged. Unflattering comparisons of Massachusetts residents and red staters with guns are common in the wingnut internet world and in right wing periodicals. You know: Texans would never have allowed themselves to be penned in like sheep and run roughshod over by the fascist police, FBI and ATF. They would have gone a-terrorist-huntin' with their prized guns.
And nothing to back that bullshit up? Sure, sweetheart, anything you say.
The "Boston Strong" meme is being mocked: “Boston Strong†= “Arbeit Macht Frei!". Big Papi is under fire for saying "This our ****ing city" when there were (gasp) children present.
I wouldn't have equated "Boston Strong" with that, I would have associated "Boston Strong" with "Get under your bed and hope you survive!", but that's just me. As far as "Big Papi", whoever the Hell that is, maybe he should show a little dignity and self restraint.
Wait, what am I thinking? Blue city? Dignity and self restraint? Nevermind...
The pious prayers for those wounded swiftly evolved into nasty criticism of Boston and liberals for enabling "evil Muslims" and others, for being tolerant and for embracing multiculturalism.
Nope. Didn't take long at all.
Embracing multiculturalism, especially those "cultures" who's tenants of faith are to kill non believers, will get you hiding under your bed (unarmed) while animals run amok in your towns. Boston was a fantastic example of just that.
But, again, I am not interested in what a DUmp democrat has to say about anything in regards to solidarity, it rings a bit hollow.
