Moral Outrage

Two liberal women in Colorado object to a memorial honoring a Navy Seal awarded the Navy Cross posthumously. Why? Because he is depicted with his gun. You see, they are "sensitive" to "gun violence" after Columbine. Jack Kelly:

Petty Officer Dietz's widow, Patsy, was offended by the comparison: "It's a parent's job, including these parents who are protesting, to teach their children the difference between two thugs who murder their classmates and a soldier who died fighting for their freedom," Patsy Dietz said.

"When a dove can protect our children from religious fanatics who'd like to behead them, I'll visit the National Peace Dove Memorial," wrote Denver Post columnist David Harsanyi. "For now, I look forward to taking my kids to Littleton and explaining why guys like Danny Dietz deserve to be honored."

These women are not sensitive to anyone but themselves, they are criminally self-absorbed. They are the real moral outrage. Maybe their kids will learn a lesson from the memorial that their parents aren't teaching them.
