This is what happens when a political movement loses any sense of right and wrong. And instead just runs on angry self-righteousness and its own political calculations where the ends always justify the means. Even if the means involve boycotting a moment of silence for victims of a brutal massacre.
Massachusetts U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton says he will not participate in a moment of silence on the House floor after 50 people were killed in Las Vegas and more than 400 others were sent to area hospitals in the deadliest mass shooting in American history.
The Democratic congressman, along with his Bay State colleague Katherine Clark, also did not participate in a moment of silence after a mass shooting in Orlando claimed the lives of 49 people in June 2016. The two joined other Democratic representatives to walk out on the moment of silence in a protest over a lack of gun control.
They're not the only ones.
This obscene behavior began, apparently, with the San Bernardino Massacre. And it's likely to only get worse.
After Orlando's disgusting walkout, Democrats disrupted the aftermath. And you can count on them to do it all over again. They are determined that we will have no national unity and that their war on the Bill of Rights must be the main topic of discussion. Recognizing the victims and coming together would only distract from their agenda. And so, just like the anthem, they'll sit instead of standing. Or walk out of the room.
This is what the Democrats are like now. This is what happens when a political movement is hijacked by the radical left. It loses its sense of decency. It no longer understands right and wrong.
It doesn't understand that you stand for the anthem and the victims of a brutal massacre. And then you push your agenda.
This is what they've become.
