Perhaps the most discouraging condition of the modern age is the absolute breakdown in communication among members of society.  It once seemed reasonable to expect that the Internet and social media might aid in our understanding of each other.  Instead, online forums are filled with people who speak the same language but interpret words entirely differently.

With the arrest of former CNN commentator Don Lemon for allegedly violating the religious rights of worshipers in Minneapolis, Democrats and the corporate news media have universally condemned Attorney General Pam Bondi for somehow "infringing" upon Lemon's First Amendment rights as a so-called "journalist."  They intentionally ignore how Lemon joined others in storming a church, intimidating congregants, and causing emotional harm to those worshipers (including children) who understandably felt as if they were under attack.  Lemon and his apologists continue to defend the organized raid of a Christian service as some kind of "protest" and describe the unwanted intruders as "protesters."  For those who were made to suffer through the invasion, however, their ordeal felt like an act of terrorism perpetrated by terrorists whose intent was to scare those assembled to worship.
