Terrorism and the Left

Karol Markowicz at the New York Post notes that there's very little mention of the domestic terrorism being waged against Tesla, Tesla dealerships, and Tesla owners by Democrats and their leftist allies in the media.

People are being doxxed and swatted, their cars are being vandalized and their lives and livelihoods threatened by left-wing thugs who, like all ideological extremists, have taken to violence against those with whom they disagree.

Here's Markowicz:

Another Donald Trump presidential term, another spate of violence going largely ignored — or even smirked at — by Democrats and their media friends.

Tesla dealerships are being firebombed and shot at, while Tesla vehicles are vandalized and their owners assaulted.

Trump-supporting influencers are getting “swatted,” set up for dangerous police encounters by opponents who phone in hoax distress calls.

Relatives of Trump-aligned public figures — including the sister of US Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett and Elon Musk’s brother — are receiving bomb threats.

This cannot go on.

She adds that,

The multiple attacks on Teslas aren’t mere vandalism. This is terrorism exactly as the dictionary describes it: “The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.”

These “vandals” are terrorizing Tesla the company, as well as Tesla owners — going so far as to dox them with an online map — all because they don’t like the opinions of its CEO.

It’s calculated to scare, to terrorize, people away from driving Teslas in order to apply political pressure on Musk.

It’s “nothing short of domestic terrorism,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said Tuesday.

Fortunately, a number of these vandals have been arrested and hopefully they'll be fully prosecuted. If justice is served they'll be facing five-year mandatory minimum sentences and could receive up to twenty years to contemplate their stupidity.

Markowicz has more details and links in her NY Post column. This apparent indifference among progressives to terroristic assaults on the property and people who drive Teslas is seemingly of a piece with the left's resistance to Trump's attempt to remove felons who are here illegally. Every attempt to expel violent criminals and terrorist sympathizers is met with court challenges intended to delay, obstruct, and prevent the removal of these threats to our families and well-being, which raises a question:

Why would anyone want these people to remain in the U.S.?

There was no indication from the left that they objected to the massive influx of unvetted migrants when the Biden administration opened our borders to let in millions of aliens, including tens of thousands of convicted criminals, but now that the Trump administration is doing all it can to repatriate them the left is demanding that they be vetted and throwing up every obstacle to prevent their deportation.

Why?

One might be forgiven for thinking that the so-what attitude toward domestic terrorism and the strenuous efforts to keep foreign murderers, rapists, and extortionists in our neighborhoods suggests that leftists are deliberately doing whatever they can to degrade and undermine our society.

Of course, to suggest such a thing is to invite accusations of paranoia, but then anyone who has read any political history could tell us that violence, terror, and social destabilization have been the modus operandi of the left going back to at least the French Revolution of 1789.

Evidently, it still is today.
