Every sentence he writes is potentially quote-worthy. His books, interviews, articles, and news commentary can be an overdose of sensible logic and thoughtful perspectives, complete with outstanding historical comparisons and examples. I’ve never been one to lay it on thick, but to simply say that I’m impressed, feels like an understatement.

Well, 2024 is another election year and we have a new (sort of) cadre of stormtroopers. I think I’ll call them “blamtif-hamas”.

I’d be more than happy to see the entire Ivy League dissolved. Let their charters and accreditation be revoked, the administrators, faculty and staff laid off and the buildings razed to the ground. However … that seems unlikely. So as the only plausible alternative I suggest we let them destroy themselves. They’re doing a smash up job already. So … don’t call in the police to break them up. Let the tent cities proliferate and fester. Let graduation, and all other civic and academic life on campus be stifled. Let the campuses become high crime zones where it is unsafe to walk. Let each campus become “the first terror bases in our nation”. *

Then let students and parents see for real what will become of their $90,000 a year “investment”.

In a movie Spock once said to Kirk about the Klingons: “Jim … they’re dying.”
To which Kirk (and I) say: “Let them die.”

One minor point to make. There are more 100,000 overdose deaths per year, not just in total. fentanyl accounts for the most of these deaths.
