Glenn Reynolds, the popular voice behind Instapundit, advised drivers threatened by racist mob violence from the hate group Black Lives Matter to drive on rather than risk being assaulted.
Twitter, which has gleefully provided forums to numerous social justice crybully assaults and stalkings, temporarily suspended him. And the University of Tennessee has announced that it's investigating him.
The lefty double standard is that endorsing a racist hate group that supports domestic terrorists makes you a "patriot", but that telling people they can defend themselves when they're attacked is "violence".
As Reynolds wrote, "I was following the riots in Charlotte, against a background of reports of violence. Joe Bruno of WSOC9 interviewed a driver whose truck had been stopped by a mob. Trapped in her cab, she 'feared for her life' as her cargo was looted. Then I retweeted a report of mobs 'stopping traffic and surrounding vehicles' with the comment, 'Run them down.'
"Those words can easily be taken to advocate drivers going out of their way to run down protesters. I meant no such thing, and I'm sorry it seemed I did. What I meant is that drivers who feel their lives are in danger from a violent mob should not stop their vehicles. I remember Reginald Denny, a truck driver who was beaten nearly to death by a mob during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. My tweet should have said, “Keep driving,” or “Don’t stop.”
As a flashback, here's what happened to Reginald Denny.
Black Lives Matter. His didn't.
Twitter is of course very enthusiastic about the Black Lives Matter rioters destroying Charlotte. But it's rather hostile to its victims or those who would help them.
