Get Vanned, Wokies

Sunday, August 2nd, 2020

Did you see this Larry Correia piece on why gun owners aren’t eager to shoot federal agents in order to defend antifa?

It seems that a rando cartoonist decided to make the stupid side of that argument in four panel form:

Some of the responses were epic:

Important tip: If you’re attacking police, looting and committing arson in the name of a radical Marxist ideology, honest law-abiding gun owners think you’re the bad guy and happy to see you get vanned. Enjoy 20 years in Club Fed to contemplate the errors of your ways.

Social Justice Warriors: The Cartoon

A parody, but still:

This is evidently from the No Safe Spaces documentary.

MSM Monkeys Around

Thursday, December 24th, 2015

It’s been an odd week, for a number of reasons, so I’m a bit late on the “Washington Post cartoonist draws Ted Cruz’s 5 and 7 year old daughters as monkeys” story. Because nothing says “reasonable” and “rational” like attacking children because you dislike the politics of their father. On the off-chance you missed it, it featured Cruz as an organ-grinder and his daughters as monkeys on leashes. The ostensible rationale for the doodle was Cruz featuring his daughters in that parody Christmas ad that ran during Saturday Night Live, making them “fair game.”

Right.

Though the Washington Post editor took the doodle down (calling it a cartoon would suggest there was an actual attempt at humor), we all know that if someone attempted the same drawing featuring Obama and his daughters, it would have been denounced as racist and the cartoonist fired so fast they wouldn’t have been allowed to pack their desk. Of course, the MSM have always been hypocrites when it comes to different standards for Democrats and Republicans. Anything that hurts Republicans is fair game, while anything that hurts Democrats is a source of high moral outrage.

The question is: Will cartoonist Ann Telnaes pay any price for such a gross transgression of basic decency?

The irony is that the episode provided a palpable boost to the Cruz campaign, which had an outraged fundraising mailer (“They attacked my children!”) out within hours. I bet they raised at least $1 million off of it.

Here’s Mollie Hemingway with the 10 stupidest things about the monkey cartoon.

Of course, Cruz got the last laugh as well:

And this one is even better:

Jihadists Kill 10+ at Satirical French Newspaper

Wednesday, January 7th, 2015

Again.

Masked gunmen opened fire in the offices of a French satirical newspaper on Wednesday in Paris, the police said, with initial reports saying that as many as 12 people had been killed and 10 wounded.

And here’s the reason the New York Times buries ten paragraphs deep:

The newspaper, Charlie Hebdo, has been attacked in the past for satirizing Islam and the Prophet Muhammad. Its offices were firebombed in 2011 after publishing a cartoon of the prophet on its cover promising “100 lashes if you don’t die laughing!”

Obviously it’s time to bring back Everyone Draw Mohammed Day. So mark your calendars for May 20th.

This Week in Jihad for December 30, 2010

Thursday, December 30th, 2010

One last batch of Jihad news to tide you over until the New Year:

Washington Post Editors Are So Afraid of Islamists…

Monday, October 11th, 2010

That they’re refusing to run a cartoon that doesn’t show Mohammed.

Evidently the right for Muslims not to be offended now trumps all other considerations in the minds of the MSM.

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Both Molly Norris, the original cartoonist who came up with Draw Mohammed Day, and Jon Wellington, the creator of the Facebook page dedicated to it, have dropped out of the effort. Funny how Los Angeles Times writer Jimmy Orr never seems to have thought to ask the single most obvious question about their change of heart: Have you received any death threats from Muslim extremists, and is this why you changed your mind? You would think that would be an obvious question to ask when dealing with Islamic extremists, but evidently the question is not of particular interest to those fabled watchdogs in the media.

However, just because the originator pulled out doesn’t mean that Draw Mohammed Day is canceled. After all:

Bloggers made of sterner stuff have picked up the idea and run with it, including:

I plan on contributing my own modest graphic skills to the endeavor. Moreover, I think we should go beyond individual efforts and ask every single professional cartoonist to participate. I encourage you to write your favorite cartoonist and ask them to join in.

And, as he so frequently does, Chris Muir’s Day by Day nails the dismount (and is the source of the blog title).
